4.5 stars

Listening to this brought out every emotion tenfold - that ending left me in tears and I’m so glad the final book is out soon.

Miles and Cade have been through so much. The plotting between House Bartlett and Declan, House Morrison’s ambitions, the poisoning of magic… I wish I could say it only gets better from here, but I have a feeling book 3 will be just as difficult before they get a HEA.

I love the story.

I loved it but to much relationship drama. Way over done . Half the book filled with it. The ending was predictable. More relationship drama.

great narration, story was disappointing

the ending was very disappointing, I am not looking forward to reading the third book now. I wanted a no matter what we will figure things out, not a hunger games between pita and kaitness book that the author has worked up too. so disappointed.

so good - emotional ending

I really like the complexity of this series. Great characters, complex, interwoven plots, and great writing style. Greg does a fantastic job with the performance, as always.

The book wraps up on a sharply emotional pivot that hits you out of left field. While I would assume there is some version of a happy/satisfying ending in the following final book in the series, it’s sure difficult to see the way there from here. I frankly can’t understand Cade’s position in all of it though. It’s a bit hypocritical to be honest, but that also comes with unreliable main characters. Not all leads are strong in every way.

Anyways, highly recommend. Chomping at the bit for this summer 2024 when the conclusion comes out.

Excellent read

It had an excellent storyline. Just enough information to keep you engaged while withholding enough to make you want to keep reading!

This is another cliffhanger and the third book isn’t available.

This story is a continuation of the first book in the series. It ends in another cliffhanger. I don’t like that since the third book is unavailable.

The story becomes even more addictive!

I honestly think Kai Butler is one of my all-time favorite authors. Both of her audio series are incredibly well written and dense with lore that is unwound slowly as the story progresses. I’m definitely able to listen to these books over and over again and appreciate something new each and every time. This book’s end was more heart wrenching than I can even handle. I will be waiting in fraught anticipation for the third book of this series to be released!
