Listen, I get the terror of reliving your nightmare, but this series is so repetitive, I can't handle it anymore. It's literally the same situation played out over and over. Brex is literally caught in a loop of being kidnapped and thrown in prison over and over again. Only this time she is throw in

the prison created by the fae but run by the humans.

The humans have now become enemy #1. The have been creating a pill to turn humans into super soldiers and have been killing fae to get their essence. They want to rule the world and force fae into hiding or kill them all.

We find out that

Killian is actually alive and survived the explosion. He, suprise suprise, kidnaps Brex again. There is a hint that Caden may be turning against his father and working to try to get help from the other faction of rebels.

The ending did leave us on a crazy cliffhanger, this is probably the only reason I will read the next one.

Brex ends up in the ring with Scorpion and Hanna.

Holy crap. Shit got real in this one and I absolutely loved it. The plot took some turns I wasn’t expecting, our characters needed to get their heads out of their asses. Our bad guy needs a swift kick in the butt and I hate him. I can’t wait for the next one.
