So good! I loved the chemistry between Livvy and Dean is great! This book is intense and emotional (as the title suggests). It has twists and turns that I didn’t expect - what a wild ride! Livvy has to find the unstoppable foe and save her friends. I had a lot of fun reading this book!

This final instalment in this series was more of a pure action superhero story rather than a romance, as one half of our couple is out of action for the vast majority of the novel. Still a very fun and engaging read, though, and a nice finale to the adventures of these characters. There is a pretty jarring POV shift towards the end but otherwise easy as pie to read.
I just wanna say how much I love Sway! Not only because canonically trans representation but she's actually written very well, with tics and habits very fitting for her character. I know it was hinted at in the second book that she's nonbinary, but she openly says this in this book and that made me do a little happy dance while I was reading it. :)
I truly do love these characters and I'm looking forward to the new hardcover edition to see extra content, especially the backstory for my darling love Sway.

The empath chronicles definitely gets better with each instalment. Emotionally Powerful kept me on edge from start to finish and I smashed through it in one sitting.
I loved the characters developments, especially Emma’s turn around. Also enjoyed getting some chapters from Dean’s POV.
My only gripe is it’s targeted audience is teenagers/YA. Livvy, main character is teenager herself. In this book she avoids going to others for help, choosing to tackle things on her own. She didn’t reach out to her friends for help. She even says she should but doesn’t. I think books targeting YA need to have guidance woven into the meanings. Teaching teenagers it’s ok to reach out, especially when feeling overwhelmed.
Thankfully she does redeem herself when she asked Rayni’s permission to use her to help save the day.
