Sera and Nyktos are being held prisoner by Kolis. Sera reveals to Kolis that the soul of Sotoria is inside her, and she bargains with him for Nytkos' freedom. Sera has to make Kolis believe that she is in love with him. The inner workings of how Kolis created his Revenants is revealed. Callum's identity as Sotoria's brother becomes clear. Sera embraces her power as the Primal of Life and Queen of the Gods and stops the Rot. Towards the end of the book, things started to lean on deus ex machinas too much, especially with the large diamond that will miraculously solve all of Sera's problems by holding Sotoria's soul. I will still read the the next book in the series, but I preferred the first two books in the series more.
 

This book was just too intense for me. I love the Sera and Nyktos relationship, but I didn't care for all of the creepy non-consensual scenes between Kolis and Sera. It was too disturbing.

Content: graphic sexual content, violence, death, sexual assault

BOY do I love this series so much. I started reading this because of B&A, but I absolutely love f&f so much more. the characters are so much more enjoyable than the ones in B&A. I always feel like a detective reading these books because I'm always trying to guess the twists.

The first half of this book was hard to read because I love Sera & Nyktos SO much, but the last half (especially the last few chapters) more than made up for it. 

I saw from many other reviews that this needed a trigger warning… there’s an entire author’s note in the beginning the outlines the dark themes in this book. It doesn’t need a trigger warning, people just need to read.
