3.5

I love this series so much and I am so sad to read the final book (but excited to continue with the Darkest Legacy).

The reason I gave this book 3.5 stars is because of the pacing. This book is so slow and I feel like the first 60% of the book is all them just getting to the ranch, training and planning an attack and then nothing happens until that final 40% where they finally act on their plans and save the kids. But that being said I really love this story. 

I love how Ruby is a strong female protagonist and yes, she makes a lot of stupid decisions but she doesn’t let that deter her from her main goal and she is willing to do whatever it takes to destroy the camps and save the kids. Also, Liam is my favorite. I love him so much. 

I don’t have anything else to say but please read this series. Please...
