(2024): wow this sucked. this is the one where Rose

is imprisoned for killing the monarch and Lissa grapples for the throne. The Dashkov brothers break her out and show her that strigoi can be healed by being staked with a spirit infused stake. She works with Dimitri and Sonya to free kidnapped Jill who is Lissa's half sister and in the process Rose looses control of Spirit and kills Victor. Rose has sex with Dimitri and breaks up with Adrian. The dramatic end court scene Rose reveals Jill as a Draghomir allowing Lissa to be on the throne but Tasha shoots at Lissa but Rose jumps in front and almost dies. Rose and Dimitri are restored as guardians to Lissa and Christian but Rose and Lissa's bond is gone now that Rose died and came back on her own. Adrian is bitter and super attached and Rose insists none of it his fault lol. Lissa is crowned.

(2014 review): This conclusion wrapped the series up very nicely and was still exciting was always.
i love the POV through the bond cause thats a really cool way to show to POVs with only one person though.
SO SAD tho! aaaa Adrian <3333
read the book its good
