This book had me by the throat in the first half... lost a little of it's ✨️oomph✨️ in the middle... then squeezed the ever living shit out of my lungs in the end. 

Jennifer really kicked up the spice in this one from the last book which was welcomed as the pace was so slow in the middle. Casteel is 🥵yes🥵 incarnate. Keiran can always get it and I NEED more Delano. The last several chapters were INSANE - An amazing ending that rocked me to my core and set the stage perfectly for the next book. 😩🤌🏽

God this series has tanked for me. Like every other chapter had some sort of "major" revelation. I needed some consistency this book could not provide. The overused trope of Poppy being relatively innocent is getting old as hell too. I do enjoy how badass Poppy is and how much she is growing physically and emotionally but I swear this next book has to be better because I BARLEY made it through these last 50 pages.

This was so fun to return to as an audiobook! I'm excited to re-read A Shadow in the Ember with Stina narrating next!
