BLURB:

Death is the last lover you will ever know.

SOA Special Agent Patrick Collins has lived a life full of lies, and it has finally caught up with him. There’s no denying his past any longer, not after giving up the truth to save himself from a murder charge. But truth alone can’t set Patrick free, and time is running out to stop the Dominion Sect from turning his father into a god.

Jonothon de Vere knows survival isn’t a guarantee, but he’s desperate to keep Patrick safe, even as hope slips through his fingers. With the future unknown, Jono will follow Patrick wherever he goes, even to Salem, where a family reunion reveals a bitter secret that was never going to stay buried.

With New York City under control of their god pack, Patrick and Jono must fall back on every alliance they’ve brokered to fill the front lines of a war coming directly to the city streets. The veil is always thinnest on Samhain, and what awaits them on the other side is the stuff of nightmares. For when it tears, all hell will break loose, and the gods will be summoned to face a reckoning the world isn’t ready for.

The stakes have never been higher, failure has never been so deadly, and the Fates have never been kind to heroes. Patrick knows that better than anyone—because everything has a price, every debt always comes due, and it’s finally time for Patrick to pay his. 

REVIEW:

I’ve got to behave myself so bad here, because I am not giving away what happens. If you want to know, you’ve got to read this. And believe me when I tell you, it is worth the read. I’d give it 10 stars if I could. I have loved this series from book one and the only thing that has disappointed me is poor Patrick has never gotten his vacation. Or has he? lol

That poor boy. Caught in the middle of a war that started as a child that should have never had anything to do with him at all. If I didn’t hate Ethan before, I surely do now. Knowing how far he was went, using his own children to do his dirty bidding or using them to try to do things that are evil. Thankfully Patrick has had Jono and their pack to support him to keep his head on straight but geez. It’s a mess. And the sad part of all this….all this started because of the gods and goddesses and are ending with them as well. All because greed of one man and those who took the wrong side in things.

I hate what Patrick has been put through throughout this whole series.  Each book uncovers one more thing, one more nail in the coffin, so to speak, one more secret being spilled. But this one, this one spilled more than ever and the blow backs from it are still leaving Patrick reeling. Jono as well. Because as hard as this is for Pat, it’s hard for Jono too. Because what do you do for someone you love when they won’t accept or listen to what you have to say. And I have to give a bit of leeway to Pat. With everything that gets thrown at him everyday, sometimes things people have to say you just aren’t ready to hear. You need to process and grieve if necessary. See the big picture of it all before you can make a judgement and definitely before you can listen. So I feel for Jono too. Because he just wants to love Patrick and help him.

And now with everyone from every world or veil possible after them or Ethan or whoever, will it be too late to finally say the things they need to say? Pat has had one too many close calls and this time, one of those close calls may be the final one. You’ll have to read to find out.

I have to say I’m uber sad that this series is over. It’s been worth every single page, tear, shred of anger and anything in between. What the author did with this series was nothing short of amazing in my book and I hope there will be another like it from them in the future. Absolutely amazing. I recommend wholeheartedly.
