heartscontent's review against another edition

3.5 stars actually.
I was expecting a lot more. I agree with many of the reviewers regarding the climax and of course that Kaidan wasn't the Kaidan we see in the first two books in the trilogy anymore. I agree he's in love with Anna and that he's being good and true to her. But he was always in love with her (since when she gave all her money away in book one in Hollywood) and he'd stopped working in the second book as well but he hadn't changed.
I didn't believe in the whole "purity" thing because the purity or impurity of an action is based wholly and truly on the emotion behind it. And what's more pure than love?
However, Anna's bravery and everyone else's total belief in her and in the good was truly endearing. They were ready to sacrifice themselves for a good cause.
I'm definitely going to miss all the characters. I'm very sad to watch them go, maybe more so because they hadn't left with a bang.

Me hubiera gustado que tuviera un poco de más trama, entiendo que estaban a la espera de la gran profecia y lo que tenian que hacer era evitar problemas pero aun asi un poco de más sabor hubiera estado bien. En general lo ame y creo que mi unico pero seria el que ya mencione arriba, disfrute mucho de estos libros y nunca me desepcione.

Reread January 2018. So, for some reason this book (and the other two) only had 3 star ratings, which I'm WAY confused about, because they're AMAZING! (Although that was like four years ago, so time has passed and I'm a lot more mature, I guess?) These books are the perfect mix of forbidden love, paranormal heaven-hell action, and growing up and finding yourself. On a reread, 4.5 stars for all 3.

That ending was perfection!! I loved how everything was tied together and resolved. There were some hilarious moments in which I laughed out loud like a maniac, and some where I was close to crying. An emotional rollercoaster. The character development throughout this trilogy was just perfect. Now lemme start Sweet Temptation to experience this story from Kaidan's point of view yumm
