this one was a SLOG for me. in what world would a 50+ page epilogue be necessary? i liked the ending enough but i really think the story could’ve been condensed into 3 books.

i can’t believe they

made me think kyan was gonna die

TWICE and i fell for it both times. i liked most of the characters and the plot had me anxious the whole time even if i did take a while to get through so it’s 🦑🦑🦑 overall

I liked the wrap up of this series but the epilogues were a little too perfect or maybe there were too many considering the similarities in each one…? Either way, Tatum, Saint, Kyan, Blake, and Nash’s relationship was forged in fire and solidified when it was over. I love them. I only dropped it from 4stars because I really had to push through to finish it. I sped through the the last 7% (ish) because it was unnecessary and I already felt at peace with their story. Overall I’d recommend this series unless the pandemic, and all the stress that went along with it, is still too fresh. In that case, wait a few years.

A good ending to the series. It tied up loose ends and gave the characters an ending that is satisfying. Reading it was a rollercoaster of emotions but no more so than any of the previous ij the series. <spolier> if this was a fanfic I would tag it angst with a happy ending. <spolier>
