This book changed my brain chemistry. This series has quickly become one of my all time favorites. All the characters absolutely own my heart and Runyx is an incredible writer. Amara’s journey and character growth in this is so inspiring and I will say this time and time again Runyx is absolutely INCREDIBLE at characterization and making you feel the emotions of the characters she is a GURU!! A MAGICIAN!! Everyone feels so real and is so lovable even through being morally grey. I can name the amount of books that do morally grey as well as Runyx on one hand. And DANTE!!! OH MY GODDDD 🫠🫠🫠🥵🥵🥵 He’s the epitome of the perfect man. He’s smart, emotionally mature, honest, devoted and soo protective and thats just a summary of how perfect he is!! He’s even a damn artist and a beautiful one at that! He likes to listen to audiobooks and sculpt!! He’s also actually falling over himself to worship Amara like honestly you couldn’t ask for more. His and Amaras fight to be together is absolutely everything!! They are so perfect for each other they really are true soulmates. The development of their relationship too is so for lack of a better word *chefs kiss* I love Amara so so much!! Shes so strong and kind and I want to be her bestfriend 🥲 Also the epilogue of this book had me SOBBING. Amara & Dante are one of my favorite couples of absolute all time. They are soulmates and they have fought to be together so much and I just LOVE THEM 😭😭 I dont have enough words to describe how much I love this book and this world and these characters so all I’m going to say is thank you Runyx for creating this It’s brought me so much joy and comfort 💗💗

I was nervous going into this book, as I loved Tristan & Morana, and didn’t really understand the relationship between Dante & Amara. 

But WOW. I loved how RuNyx shows the whole timeline between Dante & Amara’s relationship - I felt more understanding of their characters and loved getting to know them. The plot definitely took a back seat for about 70% of the book, but the romance aspect made up for it (for me). 

Dante is a literal mastermind, the way he always considered Amara as his future (even if he was a bit of an asshole sometimes) & was always there for her. Amara is the sweetest and her back story/all the shit she went through had me in tears 😭 

Overall, I really enjoyed this one and I’m excited to see where the plot goes now that my couples are happy and in love !! Please search TW as well, this does get a bit dark.

Really loved the first two books, loved the characters that book three is focused on, but there is a trope in the plot I can’t handle. Maybe I’ll finish this later, I want to know what happens, but not feeling motivated due to the current predicament.

I devoured this book from beginning to end! Where can I find a dante please? The love he has for Amara I don't even have the words. I already liked him in the first 2 books but in his book, 10/10. The relationship he has with Amara, the trust they have in each other, the communication. He does not hide what he feels on the contrary he expresses himself and shows it. 
This book is my favorite for the moment 
I 100% recommend ❤️
