the first book was pretty good, but the last two in mya & drav’s story dragged on too long. some of the travel content could have been cut.
the relationship between the two characters also felt like it stalled in second book. i would have liked to have seen more romantic tension between them.

What a cute little trilogy this was. I really enjoyed this series.
In the final book we get to see how the humans reacted to seeing the fey for the first time and of course there were humans who acted like assholes but in the end we saw how the humans and the fey started to work together to rebuild the new world they were living in.
Of course the best part is that we get to see Mya get her HEA.

Cute!
Mya and Drav literally fell in love and he loses his shit if he doesn't know where she is. I love it.
4.5 stars

4 stars — In general I loved the way Mya and Drav’s story resolved. There were definitely moments where I wanted to slap Mya…okay, a lot of moments (*cough* Ryan supply run *cough*). But I loved seeing the Dark Fae learn about human customs and adapt to our world. They were so earnest, you couldn’t help but love them, even as they made me LAUGH AND LAUGH with their obsessive focus. Some of those conversations just killed me, I can’t even.
I actually really appreciated the way a bunch of little threads were brought back in, including the exiles. I didn’t expect that, but I really loved what these authors did with that.
Again, as with the previous books, the love story is probably something I shouldn’t have fallen for, but I totally did. It’s not a normal relationship, especially since it had a bit of stockholm quality to the beginning, but I just really loved the way they desperately loved and cared for one another. It was addicting. And sometimes it’s kind of nice to let go of realism and just accept what you’re given.
I also really fell in love with quite a few of the other Fae, and am actually really excited that there are spin off books for each one I loved the most (Ghua, Kerr, and Shax). I can definitely see wanting to read their books, though a part of me wants to wait to see if they get made into audiobooks b/c Ms. Rosenberg really did grow on me as a narrator. Decisions decisions.
So yeah. I will admit that there were parts that felt kinda hokey, but in the end I was sucked right into the world and compelled to keep reading. That’s success right there.

It's a 2.5 for me. While personally, it was an enjoyable read because I've grown to love the characters, the plot fell pretty flat for me. Once Mya reunited with her family, their interactions didn't ignite many emotions in me. I also thought the decisions made by both her and her brother was very senseless. As someone who has almost died before many times, you'd think Mya would be much more careful and heed Drav's insistence of keeping safe and staying put, yet she throws out the warning and the lessons she previously learnt out the window, just so she can be an additional person on a supply trip... The introduction of the fae to humans also went a lot too seamlessly in my opinion. And the mystery/ conclusion with the 2 exiles was short and just didn't seem to fit with the overall emphasis put on them this whole series.
