"Our character isn't defined by the battles we win or lose, but by the battles we dare to fight."

This is such a fun series. While I wouldn't rate it as highly now as I used to, I still enjoyed it enough that my initial review stands. Serafina is such a fun character to follow, and Braeden is so sweet. The world of this series is so amazing and I loved my return to it.

- "She didn't know what she was or how she got that way, but she knew what she wanted to be. She wanted to be GOOD." Sometimes, that's all you need.
- "It was true that she was a creature of the night. But SHE would decide for herself that that meant." Again, a great lesson.
- "At that moment, all the power and ferocity of clawed motherhood came ripping out of the woods." That is such a great line.
- I love the dialect work in this book. It really draws you in and makes it feel authentic
