The enemy has her. And the man she loves seems intent on using her dark magic to destroy her kingdom…
In the chaos of the magical assault on Pelias, Wren has been swept far from home. She is now a prisoner, in the heart of enemy territory. At least she has the man she loves beside her, keeping their passion alive during the cold nights in this unfamiliar place.
Or so she thought…
Finn has changed since returning to his father’s kingdom. Instead of serving the princess he’s proven his loyalty to time and again, he is keeping her under guard in a tower. Desire still lights up his eyes when he looks at her. But is he enamoured by Wren, or her power?
With the unfamiliar castle calling to her dark magic, Wren is fighting every minute to keep her growing power in check. And she struggles to ignore the still-smouldering heat between her and Finn every time their fingers touch – even as he keeps her under lock and key…
Is everything she believed about Finn a lie? Or is he under the influence of the dark power here too? And will she have time to figure it out before she’s forced to turn her magic on her own kingdom?
MY REVIEW
I can’t believe this series is now over. I adored Wren and Finn’s plight in this world against the Nox and the Aurum. I am going to be honest here and say, I think I have done the book a disservice. I bought the audiobook, as I can read quicker this way. But I wished I read them. I loved the narrator and I loved the book, but I think I missed the connection if I had read it. I think I will need to find time to re-read it – and what a great excuse! Mainly because I am gutted it’s over already! I wanted more and still do!
What a change these characters have gone through! It was the beginning that got me, I dove straight into this after finishing Book 2 and I was eager to see how Finn and Wren were doing at court. Man, it was dark.!! I couldn’t believe what was going on, I thought the narrator was making things up. Then my mind was blown! I had suspected something was coming, and I thought it might be what it was, but the relief I felt when it was!! Cryptic I know! But thank god, that is all I can say!
Second Sky has been banging out some epic romantasy books, and this is one of my top ones! I have some of the older books by Jessica on Kindle and after reading these, I can hear my Kindle whispering to me….or is it the nox?
I love the world-building from this series, I could see the courts, the forest, especially with Finn tied up at the end wink wink, everything was so visual and clear in my mind.
I have to end my review with three words…Elodie and Roland
sigh
Until the next time xxx
