I’m so sad to have this series come to an end, and yet so very happy with everything about it. I loved Kat’s journey through the series and seeing her come to terms with the idea of LIVING rather than SURVIVING. I think the fact that the series basically comes full circle with Kat being a court spy was perfect. Bastian’s own trials to overcome the way he was groomed and gaslighted for almost 2 decades was also very poignant and well written. Their romance, devotion, and journey as a couple was so sweet, and deliciously spicy. Sager definitely made good on promises made earlier in the series and upped the 🥵 level in this book. The found family aspect of this series is a particular favorite of mine, and I’m now more determined than ever to read Sager’s other series about all of these wonderful characters.
