I loved this book! I love this series! It was heart wrenching, and heart warming, and totally swoon worthy all at the same time.
I love Eva and Rafe and Levi and Damon and Hudson. I love the new character in Letty as well.
I have to admit I was nervous how this book would play out, but it was done beautifully, and not even I saw the twist at the end coming! The wait for the final book *sob* is going to be excruciating, but I can’t wait to see how it plays out!
This is a great YA/NA rockstar romance, completely up my alley! Grab a copy for yourself, you won’t be sorry!

For the most part, I did like this book.
Once it got going that is.
The start is kind of a mess. It’s rushed and info dump-y and I think there was probably a better way to describe the events of the past in an easier way. I did enjoy the banter between Maliki and Sienna, so not all is lost, but still, it was an awkward telling events.
I liked Ki. I really loved his POV and sometimes wanted more of it. There were also a few time where I wanted to wring his neck, but he redeem himself, eventually.
Sienna annoyed me a few times, *ahem* Devin, but I think she got there in the end.
The twists were interesting for me, but only if something similar hadn’t happened earlier in the book.
This is an okay book for. Fans of Charity’s will love it, but as a first-time reader it didn’t all work for me,
Sorry!

This, as an independent story, was decent even if it can’t be read as a stand-alone.
As part of the series? It was okay.
My main problem, and this has happened before, when Kaylee is finishing a series she originally started as a stand-alone, she tends to rush and reads as if she wants to get it over with.
Up until now, we’ve heard very little of Seth, or Amelia for that matter.
I wanted to get to know him outside of him being like every other guy in this series, and indeed, one of Kaylee’s leading men. We don’t get much of him at all. We don’t get much of Mara either. The book also starts in the middle of their relationship. I want to see the start, the fun, getting to know you part, but again, like the previous book, we don’t get it, which is a shame and takes away from the romance of the book I think.
This book, really, is about Amelia, who seems to pop out of nowhere. I also found the storyline to be a little predictable.
I really love Kaylee’s books, but I feel like something is missing here. It doesn’t read like she wanted to write this, rather than she felt like she had to. It’s also a little one note and similar to every other book in the series and her wider catalogue. It pains me to say this, but it’s truly what I feel,
Sorry.

This was a solid end to the series. I was a little concerned as I wasn’t really a fan of a few of the books in this series, but it was all good.
I liked the spin on this book but also found there were a few similarities to other books in the series which I wasn’t sold on.
Still, Kent was a great character and I liked how he want over the top.
I didn’t really have many feelings about Delaney. She’s solid, but I would’ve liked to have seen her come to the fore more often.
I also felt as if a family tree for the group would come in handy, even though the other couples weren’t that prevalent.
Still, it’s a solid book, a bonafide stand-alone, so give it a go if it’s your type of thing.

4.5 stars.

I really enjoyed this book! It isn’t something I’d typically pick up, but I gave this a chance and I’m glad I did!!
I loved Nahri and Dara. They’re both sassy and strong and stubborn!
I loved the world building and blending with the ancient one. However, I wasn’t familiar with a few terms, so had to go back and forth to the glossary quite a lot.
One thing that did confuse me was that the action towards the end of the book came out of nowhere for me, I would’ve liked to have seen a bigger, more explained build up.
Still, this was a great book and I’m excited to see where the rest of the series goes!

This was a strange book. I love fantasy and I love romance, but I’m afraid this isn’t a great mix here.
The story is too flowery. Instead of things being allowed to let be, they’re overly explained and I feel the world building is a little weak.
I also feel like so much of the story is told to us, not shown resulting in a sort of juvenile feel.
I admire Jamie for taking on a new genre, but I’m not really feeling it. I hope the full length story will be better!

I liked this book. Usually I’m not a fan of books set outside of america, but this was an exception.
I liked the story here. It’s a twist on the usual bully romance, which keeps it fresh.
I like Tabitha, even if her nickname didn’t suit her.
Zach was interesting too, as were the supporting cast.
If I have a few complaints it’s that sometimes there’s information missing if you weren’t aware this was a spin off (which I wasn’t.)
Also, and this is major, it’s a tattoo machine, not a tattoo gun!!!!!!!
Despite this, it was a solid book and lovers of bully/enemies to lovers should give it a go!

3.5 stars.

I’m not really sure what to think about this book. I have faith that, obviously, this story will join up with Teriana and Marcus’s but I’m not sure if it quite held my attention.
I liked Killian. I liked his band of girls.
I’m not sure I liked Lydia. She did what she needed to do, but felt a little weak to me.
I think my main problem with this book is just how much doesn’t go for them. It’s hard to read something constantly getting worse. There weren’t many bright spots in this book.
I also felt it was a little slow to start, but the magic system was better explained in this book.
There are shades of an infamous “seventh” book in a series, in this one, but I hope it all comes together eventually!

This was my favourite Rittenhouse book. I loved Colm and Imo and are SO glad we get their stories.
I’m a big sucker for wounded heroes and Colm, he’s got a boatload of baggage and watching him overcome it was a sight to read.
I’m so glad we got Imo’s story. She again had a boatload of baggage to overcome, but again, watching her overcome it was extremely enjoyable.
I love how close these guys are, but I did want to see more of their ladies. I also thought it was a tad bit short, or did I read it too quickly? Anyway, I would’ve liked to have seen more in between the last chapter and the epilogue.
This was a great end to this series and I’m sad to see it go!

I genuinely enjoyed this book. I will admit it was slow to start, and not a lot of things were explained, especially Lydia, but if you battle through it is worth it.
I will admit that Teriana’s character is still a bit of a mystery to me. Is she a hardass? Is she soft? At times she’s both, which is welcome, but also a tad confusing.
I love Marcus. He is strong but has a heart, which I love.
I did also love the fluidity of relationships, miki and quintus among my favourites, but I would like to see more.
I am looking forward to the rest of this series and can’t wait to start the second!
