If you enjoyed the first two books, you’ll enjoy this one. Possibly even more?

The authors change in using multiple POV severely increased my enjoyment of this book. I always found Oli annoying and somewhat childish. Having a switch in POV refreshes the story and makes Oli a little more tolerable.

I still find there are plot holes and lack of world building. I struggle the fact that I’m going into book 4 and still hav rai many questions about the world/history of this book. 

The few smut scenes that are in this book are delicious as always!

It’s hard to articulate my feelings on this book. Because I can easily devour in one sitting, I thoroughly enjoyed the characters, especially the men, I enjoy the smut and I’m always left, wanting more despite all my reservations of the series regarding the plot in the world. Is it the best written books, no, is it easily desirable and enjoyable… Yes!

Ummm k. Cliff hanger much? Good thing all 6 books are on KU so I don’t have to wait, cause that ending has my head spinning. Are their human shifters? Like people who can look like others in J Bree’s world, cause if not i need answers asap.
