"You learn to appreciate things that are different. Things that have been pieced together with heart and soul. Things that have history behind the,, that show that they've come a long way...They're just as worthwhile when they're ugly."

I have loved Bethiah since she first showed up in the Corsairs Series. I am a total Ruby Stan and love every one of her books. Some are better than others but I enjoyed Bethiah and that she continued her antics but also showed her much softer side.

Unlike most of the other books Bethiah has two lovers: one male and one female. I loved this for her and for the characters. The triad fit and complemented each other in amazing ways. In the previous books I always got the idea that Bethiah was imagining this push pull thing she had with Jamef and we come to find out it's actually true. I thought that was super funny. Add Dora to the mix and she tempers the other two in amazing ways.

So love, love, loved this story and looked forward to reading this as a serial every day on Ruby's Facebook page.

A great ending to the Corsair brothers series.

This was another great book from Ruby. It was the first time I have read a book that has a triad in it. It was handled really well, and now I want two mates! Heehee. There was a part of the book that felt slow and I took a break to read something different. Once I came back to it, it flowed easier though, so maybe I just needed a break. I am reading all of Ruby's books in order, after all... Low angst, HEA.

Audiobook Review. I talk a lot of shit about Holly Jackson in some of my reviews, so it's only right to acknowledge that she really knocked it out of the park on this one. I love Dora's sweet tone and Brooklyn accent, which threaded the needle between cute and annoying very successfully. And Bethiah has the Tough Girl voice without being a chatacture. Really great job from her and Mason both.

This book was easily the best of this series. Loved the dynamic, loved the development of one of my most beloved side characters, loved the victory lap around the Risdaverse. Dora is a delight, Jameth is adorable, and the polyamorous relationship was just perfection. Can't recommend this enough to fans of the Dixonverse!
