It's immensely satisfying when a book delivers exactly what you were hoping for. I was really hoping to see Raven come into her own and level the playing field more between her and Cole and this addition to the series was precisely what I was hoping for. Raven still has much to learn but she takes some big bada*s strides in the right direction here.

All the things I've mentioned in reviews of the previous two books still hold true for this one. These books are quick fun reads that pull you in quickly and linger in a good way after the last page.

I enjoyed every minute of this. I don't think I've previously highlighted how much the side characters, namely Raven's entirely family (even the chosen. non-blood relations) enrich this story. They are all interesting in their own right and tbh I'd absolutely love to see many of them get their own books down the line! At this point I'd excitedly read a book about Pepe in a heartbeat lol. It's officially field of dreams level, if she writes it I will come. McKenzie has created a powerhouse here and I can't wait to see what comes next.
