Degrees of Power, Book 4 in the Prestian Series by Via Mari
4 out of 5 Stars
This story is a continuation. Please, do yourself a HUGE favor and read the first books in this series. You will love the,. Katarina and Chase are continuing on their insane journey of life and passion.
Katarina is a strong woman. And by that I mean super strong. This woman has gone through the ringer and has come out standing on the other side. While she still is needing to come to terms with the trust issues that she has in her past and those that she is currently facing with Chase, she grows by leaps and bounds as a person in this installment and you can tell how much power she has as a female character in a book of strong male leads.
Chase holds his own. He loves Kate. He is even able to put up with her independent nature and her distrustful side. He grows with her. He learns her and she learns him. He begins to understand that within a relationship, especially one founded as theirs was, there is a lot of give and take. Chase is a strong foundation of which they both stand and he is determined to not let them fail.
I highly recommend this series. You will fall in love with this story. This author has a masterful way of creating beautifully detailed scenes and intricate characters who are strong, independent and full of life.
Degrees of Power by Via Mari is the fourth book in the Prestian series. This series does need to be read in order as it follows one couple throughout their journey, each book picking up where the last one left off.
The author really knows how to keep a story going. Four books in and I still enjoyed reading every second of Kate and Chase’s story. I really like how all the way through the book, as with the series, I just never knew which way it might turn. I never knew quite what to expect from the author and her story.
As with the others this book flowed well. It was fast paced and gripping while also knowing when to take a step back. The characters were as interesting as they always are. I can’t wait to see if there will be more to follow.

Degrees of Power is the fourth and final book in the Prestian series by Via Mari. I have loved reading this series and had been wondering how Via Mari was going to pull everything together, so I had fairly high expectation for this final book. After reading it I have to say what an incredibly captivating conclusion this turned out to be. Via Mari didn’t rest on her laurels, keeping the story amped up right till the end. The story/series is a great erotic romance – full of suspense, emotion, mystery, action, danger, secrets, humour, and passion. I really recommend that you read the rest of the series before starting on this one, as there are details, character information, and a bridging storyline you really should know in order to fully appreciate and get the most out of this reading experience.
Katarina and Chase have been through quite a lot, and this book sees them dealing with a lot of the ‘issues’ that have plagued them. Their relationship has evolved over the course of the series and we got to follow them through all the various ‘stages’, and the highs and lows that they’ve experienced. But along with their relationship development and finding their ‘balance- there are other unexpected developments which add an element of suspense and intensity to the whole storyline. It was quite gripping in places. The powerful chemistry between Chase and Katarina produced some sizzling scenes- but there was also some more tender moment, some humour, and emotion to be had as well.
This was a really great story that easily pulled me in and kept me engrossed the whole way through. A fantastic way to end the series. I can’t wait to see what Via Mari does next….
Thank you, Via Mari!
Degrees of Power (A Prestian Series Book 4) by Via Mari is the fourth and last book in the series. My love hate relationship with Katarina continues but she does redeem herself in this book where she finally shows some strength and courage. The mystery and intrigue, danger and action and thrills and spills and the elusive bad guy continues to play havoc and we find our characters in some harrowing and dramatic situations. The intrigue of the story and the drama that unfolds hold you captive as does the scorching heat between the sheets and everywhere else that was available. Don’t get me wrong I love a story that has lots of explicit sex but seriously, the man needs therapy. LOL. I think this book is the best of the series but the ending fell a little flat for me, there could have been more on the demise of the baddies.
What I do love is that through it all they are determined to fight for each other and their love of not only each other but those they consider family and friends. But let’s not forget those trusted men who are always in the background just taking care of the bad guys. I would love to see them get their own stories.
Book 4 in series. Still loving this
This author has a way of writing that just pulls you into the story and won’t let go until the very end. She always leaves you wanting more. This my be the end of the series for Chase and Kate but definitely not the end of the story. I loved every minute of it! Excellent read!
The final book in this series did not disappoint…I always find myself bummed out when I complete a book even more so when a series comes to an end, but this book was the perfect ending to the Prestian series.
