A very happy ending to one of the best series I’ve read so far!!! I’m always amazed and surprised with what Amelia Hutchins create! She gives us this amazing storylines that keeps you hooked for months after you finish reading them. Lena and Lucian got the amazing ending they deserved! Can’t wait for more books from her!

Perfect in all ways. Amelia delivers again.
This is the story and the ending everyone wanted. Amelia is amazing story teller and the monster series is one I will always recommend. While the entire Fae Chronicles are spectacular, Amelia delivers with giving you the deeper story you wanted for the characters you grew attached to.

A very hard read
From book 1 this was a hard read. Very monotonous and redundant. There was lots of contradiction in the writing almost like the author was a stranger to her own characters and ideas. I pushed myself to read it though, and unfortunately it never improved and if anything got worse and worse with each book. Characters were written into the story then forgotten, concepts were introduced and then completely disregarded. The idea of the story was strong, and with a good editor this could have been a great series, but here we are.

After finding out what Lucien was, I still maintain that this information would have made the story more interesting if we knew what he was from the beginning. When it was revealed 99% of the way through the final book, it was kinda just like, “oh…that makes sense, but like, why was it such a secret.”
When I picked up this series on an audible sale, I didn’t realize it wasn’t a standalone. While I could pick up enough in previous books to keep up with who is who, this was the first time I felt lost and struggled with piecing together what happened in the other series. While it wasn’t critical to know, it was annoying.
Finally, I kind of laughed when I read the reviews that this was just smut. But I listened to this on my hour commute, and I had a day and a half where I was in the same extended sex scenes

This whole book up until the end made me mad. I mean WTF, when did Lena turn into a bitch? She's supposed to be this bad ass, and she just took what Lucian gave her.
Amelia is the epitome of trust the process. And she really did it this book. I was increasingly disappointed until I knew. When you know you know.
So I will say hold on tight and buckle your seat belts because you are in for a wild finale. Amelia just put the cherry on the ice cream with this one and this was one of the best HEA I have read to date.
Also, you don't find out what Lucian is until around 98% if that's what you're here for. So hold on tight. It's worth it.

This is the last book in the Monster series and we finally get to find out what Lucian is. I liked the last 25% of this book more than the first 75%. I felt like there was just too much talk and not enough action in the first parts of the book. A lot of questions were answered. The ending was soo very satisfiying!

This book was a terrible end to a great series that was my favourite in the Fae Chronicles world, all of the resolution could have been a few extra chapters at the end of book 3
Literally the first 75% of this book was just smut for smut sake, which if that is what you're looking for then fine but this series was more urban fantasy plot with smut up until this point
Hopefully the Legacy of the Nine Realms series doesn't have the same fate as this series and the last 2 Fae Chronicles books

After reading the series months ago and obsessing over what Lucian is and coming up with theories and finding information that made my theory be the ultimate reality, I was glad to know he was what I always believed him to be!
One simple word in the last 3 pages was what we got about him and the scream I let out when it was revealed......it was subtle and done in a fun way.
They got their HEA and I loved it.
We do not get Spyder's reveal despite the fact its plain and simple what he is - but since he is getting his own book that means his reveal will be discussed in it.
One thing I do wish we got was Lucian saying the three words...he said it in different ways and showed it beyond belief but I wanted him to say it back to her when she last said it to just shock her?
Also the plans he had in place to bring her back and fix the mistakes that were made was a nice twist that I did not expect.
Also the possibility that Syn's daughter being with one of the prince's of hell?? Can't wait for that book.
Zahruk? Holy shit
Alden? That was unexpected and sad but it will probably be a huge addition to the world and story.
Erie? We didn’t get Callahan in this book - well we did but he was dead and it was his body parts lol. I love her and her next book is going to be amazing.
Lucifer? I couldn’t hate him and I don’t. I’m glad he did the right thing and tried to make things right.
