About this listen

Love kills kingdoms …

Back in Grim’s castle on Nightshade, Isla is reeling in the wake of a brutal battle and the devastating truths it exposed. Her future—and the fate of the world—now hinge on a heart split in two.

Past Isla, who fell in love with the ruler of Nightshade, fights to resist feelings she considers treasonous. The Isla of the present, who has seen the ruin her powers can cause, will do anything to save Lightlark and its king.

As the line between enemy and friend is tested, Isla is more desperate than ever to understand the oracle’s final prophecy and change her heartrending fate. But a storm is coming. And with it, a long-buried evil greater than anything the realms have faced before.

With the clock ticking on her destiny and the survival of two warring kingdoms hinging on her own shattered heart, Isla Crown will either save the world—or destroy it.

Good but frustrating at times

WARNING — minor spoilers ahead!! You have been warned.

If I hadn’t wanted to know which one she’d kill, I would’ve stopped reading halfway through. Isla gets very annoying at times with her I love him, I hate him game. I get that she’s dealing with her trauma the best she knows how, but it felt like the author had a word quota to fill and was just using filler to met that quota.

The ending really saved the book for me. The cliffhanger (which I will NOT give away!) makes me believe that this isn’t just a trilogy and that there must be more books. Will I read them? Yes. Will Isla still drive me nuts? Also yes. lol

filler

It didn't give the thrill as the first two. Understandably due to it being a filler once you finish the book. Hope the future books pick back up.

Amazing read

Woah! What a cliff hanger at the end yet again. Great story and the writing just keep getting better and better. Worth the read.

Cliffhanger

I really thought this was the end of the series - so for that I’m frustrated lol but it was a good book - soooo many you must do this to get that tho - too many in my opinion - but boy the plot has thickened….

Loved it

Even though it isn’t spicy it’s still a really good story and I think who narrates it makes it all the better too. She does a really good job narrating it

Couldn’t stop listening to

Omg this book! I devoured it on audible so quickly! This by far is my favorite in the series. I love how Isla finds out about her past and some truths she needed. We get to see more of Grim and how their relationship once was and what it turns into now after everything that has happened. As always plot twist and a crazy ride. I’m excited for the next one especially the way it ended! Every book in this series the ending leaves me speechless

Whiplash

I was not a fan of the back and forth and lack of steady consistency of this love triangle. I would have preferred a steady pace back into Grims arms rather than this whiplash of “I hate him” “I love him” “I hate him again” it was just not consistent and didn’t feel very authentic.
The plot and story however was good and a nice twist to who the villain really was.
