Mmmm, this series honestly went a little downhill for me.

I felt like Nora got more naive with each book, to the point where she bordered on TSTL. I mean, Henry. Henry has fucked them over in literally every book, there are never any real consequences, and they always end up working with him again.

And, too, there's no consequences for anyone, really. The FUA is a pretty rotten organization, who allows horrible things happen in the name of political expediency. They are part of the problem. Having our heroine work with them is ... disappointing. No consequences.

And finally, I suppose it just felt repetitive by the end. Every book is basically the same villain, that we keep stupidly trusting. And every book is a series of "OMG people are trying to kidnap Nora" plots. Along with people being lured to her by her magic vajayjay. There were flavors of late Anita Blake in here, and they made me frown.

This was a little bit of a disappointing ending. Relationships moved at hyper speed and stopped feeling organic. The big bad was a yawn. I was disappointed with this ending to what was a great series. The authors did not do the characters justice.

I enjoyed this series once I accepted it as a YA/RH series.

This is not a series with a lot of sexy times, but the series worked. This was truly more about love, romance and family with the paranormal element added to it.

I wasn't sure how it would work with the fifth and final mate being introduced in this book, but again it all worked.

Don't go into this expecting hot and steamy because you won't get that in this series, but it was still a good series.

Love it!

Love this series! I love the relationships between the characters, the growth, and the humor. I read the book way too fast and was disappointed when it was over...not because of the ending just because there wasn't any more to read.
