Everything comes to a head in the final book in this trilogy. What a ride it’s been. The twists and turns that come in this book and the reveals had me with my mouth gaping open. Ben, Blair, and Isaac still have that explosive chemistry and their scenes are electric. Not everything is at seems and getting to the end of the book had me on edge the whole time.
For the love of all things sexy…. This book blew me away. What a fantastic end to a phenomenal trilogy. I can’t say enough how much I love this series. It invokes so much emotion and you really become invested in the characters and the plot. I really think that it is better than Game of Thrones. As the thrilogy concludes, it continues to become more suspenseful; the emotions are stronger, deeper and more complex; and the sex gets hotter. The events twist and turn leaving you breathless and sad to see the story end.
The lies and deceit threaten to rip apart the kingdom and each of the main characters, Ben, Blair, and Isaac must choose between love or country. It was so difficult to write this review without including spoilers of any kind. Emeralds should get at least a 10-star rating out of 5. I was very sorry to see it end. I wish there was at least one more book so I can check in and find out what is next in store for the three of them.
Emeralds is the final book in the Tarnished Crowns trilogy and as with any series, the books must be read in order. The first book is titled Chandelier and the second Grenade.
Emeralds is written giving us Isaac’s POV, although other characters do add their voices at appropriate times. I was hoping that Emeralds would answer the questions that the first two books left me pondering with, and it certainly did.
The first part of this book continues adding to the story very much like Grenade did and setting up the story for its climax. The final third had me feeling everything I felt in the first – excitement and anticipation…. which I loved. It was nice getting to know more about Isaac and learning his thoughts and feelings. I’ve really enjoyed how the author has had me questioning the roles and motives of individuals throughout the trilogy and I do love it when I am proven to be wrong.
Overall, I have enjoyed this book and indeed the trilogy. I’ve been intrigued throughout and I always hoped that Blair, Ben and Isaac could be everything that they wanted to be to each other.
The finale of the Tarnished Crown trilogy is told from the perspective of Isaac who shares his background and his rise in the political world.
All of the strings begin to pull together and close the net on the who and why Blair is being targeted. BUT, most importantly with Ben being seen walking off into the woods, Isaac has to pick up the pieces of Blair’s heart and this opportunity for them to bond is steamy and sweet.
The end has come. Book 3 in the Tarnished Crown series has finally come. After all the twists and turns, backstabbing and lies, we finally have our answers, and our happily ever after.
“Her words hang in the air. Wishes with wings.”
Isaac, Ben and Blaire finally figure out how to navigate the political world, while saving their butts, solving some mysteries, ending a couple 2 or 3 lives and having lots and lots of steamy breaks.
“It doesnt matter as I’m wrapped in the two people I need most.”
The conclusion we all needed
“We carry its weight together, share its burden. Dont allow its power to be over us. Because we are no longer the traitors and the liars and the theives.”
This is the third book in the Tarnished Crowns Trilogy.
Wow! I have no words! This book and Trilogy will leave you speechless! It ties up everything! The steamy level is of the charts!!!
This time Emeralds is told from Isaac’s point of view, The Kingmaker. You find out everything you ever wanted to know about him.
This book is unputdownable! You want to finish it to find out what happens but you also want to savour ever last page so it never ends!
There’s tears, heartbreak and loss along the way.
I’m finding it really hard to leave a review as I don’t want to give anything away so I’m sorry if I am being very vague
Annie has blown me away with this Trilogy, it’s an amazing end to the Trilogy and a must read for everyone.
