A beautiful conclusion to Karys and Dravyn's story. The only thing dropping this to 3.5 stars is the pacing of the story. I wish we had spent less time on Karys figuring out her new powers and more time on the meat and potatoes of the story. As such, there were moments when I wanted to care about what I'm reading, but found myself wondering where it was all going.

Of course, Gaither succeeded in creating the characters with their own nuances. Not everyone is black and white. Everyone is a hero in their own eyes.

There was less smut compared to the first book of the duology (almost an afterthought), but that's not why we read this, right? lol.
