I overall really enjoyed this book! Definitely has the typical Cassie style, though I will say this book was particularly romance-focused (which isn’t a bad thing for me!). I love the romance—particularly all the pairings in this story—but I would have liked to see more demon battles.

I also found the end a little predictable, with James stabbing himself with Cortana and Cordelia healing him immediately after. Because of that, I didn’t really feel the magnitude of tension that I would have expected to feel for a final battle.

Overall though, I think Cassie did a great job developing some of the couples that I was DYING to get more content of (Thomas and Alastair my beloveds, plus Anna and Ari). I also think Grace’s story was handled well—I think the reactions to the truth of her and James’ “relationship” were realistic for each character. God I just love these characters so much, Cassie has such a way of making us fall in love with her characters.
