Donovan Quinn is faced with the impossible: unleashing the wild energy inside him. In the aftermath of a rushed, thoughtless sacrifice, his circle mates brainstorm a plan to appease the Queen of Water. Meanwhile, Donovan desperately tries to find a way to access the lonely Earth magic hiding inside him.
But with his heart reaching for Tyler, the aggressive and volatile head witch of his circle, and friendships being tested at every turn, Donovan is at a standstill with his magic. Saving his friends, his circle, and his heart becomes far more complicated than he ever thought.
REVIEW:
Geez Louise. I don’t even know where to start. Damn, this has been one hell of a series and this book just sent it in the stratosphere. The relationship between Tyler and Donovan, the shifting, the trickery, the secrets, just everything. There is so much packed into this book and it just becomes surprise after surprise. Just when you think it’s over and everything is somewhat settled, something else happens.
Without giving away too much, Donovan is a were. But can’t shift. Yet. You have to read to find out all about that. But I knew he was special. I knew it. But what is troubling him as well as his were trying to come forward, is his relationship with Tyler. It’s volatile and way too much at times. And it doesn’t help that Tyler treats Donovan like he’s nothing most of the time. Unless it’s time for sex. With everything else going on from the last book as well, Leviathan and all her crap, everything is too overwhelming. Donovan tried to take matters into his own hands, only to almost kill himself by accident. But he knows he needs to do this to protect his friends. When Samhain arrives, everything comes to a head. And it’s not a good thing. Almost all of them die or are hurt and Tyler comes home to the surprise and heartbreak of his life. Especially after all he’s been through with his parents. Just when they thought things would calm down, something had to happen. And they may not come back from this one.
Donovan breaks my heart. This ‘thing’ with Tyler. I get BDSM, I get needing pain. But sometimes I want to seriously throat punch Tyler. He is such a dick. I know he has a lot to deal with at home and a lot to shoulder being the head of their circle, but still. But Donovan breaks me. He just wants love and acceptance. After losing his father, a part of him is still lost and it’s so hard. And after all that’s been happening within his circle and himself, he feels like he doesn’t know which way is up. Which makes me want to smack Tyler more. Sheesh.
I have to be so careful here. I’ve already given away more than I should, but like I said, this book and this series is amazing and it’s one you guys need to read. It has totally surprised me in a good way and I’m so happy I picked it up. You don’t know what you’re missing. Now I’m waiting to see when the next one comes. It’s supposed to be from Tyler’s POV. And I’m anxious to see how it plays out. Especially after this ending.
