I feel like I have read this series in slow motion, but it has stayed with me. Each time I put one of the books down I immediately grab the next one and then need to wait for the fortitude to read it. Because for a paranormal series it has been a super emotional ride. And in classic Tessa Bailey style it's also extremely hot.

 

Tucker was the steady, funny, reliable sidekick that I didn't really think twice about in the earlier books. He was just always there with a joke and a bail out, but I didn't know what to expect from him. After seeing the meeting between him and Mary in the last book I was dying to see them from their own points of view.

 

I was also dying to see what was going to happen with the war. And for all the twists and turns that this story took I couldn't guess how that was going to play out. There were some that we saw coming but most completely blindsided me. Tucker was the perfect person for Mary. And I loved watching her blossom and shake off all the things that she had previously thought were disabilities.

 

The whole book was just beautiful, and I was really blown away by how much I felt. And I honestly didn't see the ending coming but I couldn't have been happier with it.
