A perfect way to end a series but I really hope there will be more with these great characters. So many answers were given and peace is once again found. Cassie finally finds her path to a happy ever after. Great book!
This review is for the audio book.
Wow an explosive conclusion to Cassie’s story, I loved it and am going to start listening to the spin off stories straight away. This is book four and I really recommend that you don’t skip or start with this book as it continues from where the last book left off. I really like the characters and how magic or non magic effects them differently. This book be far contains the most action to date and I think the author is very talented in the way she describes the scenes or the emotion that run through this book, so much so that I had problems imagining it as it unfolded. Great book.
The Scots and the Blackwood’s feud is coming to a head and no one in town is safe with two very powerful magical family’s fighting. Cassie has left the town she has called her home all her life and the Scots blame the Blackwoods They retaliate by kidnapping a Blackwood. As things spiral out of control in a game of tit for tat Cassie turns to a powerful Sear for guidance, one that just happens to be a Blackwood. But before the pair can get very far Abigal sees a future she doesn’t like and sets in motion the only way she can see to ending the fight, her own death. With her dying breath she gets Cassie and Evan to promise they will talk but then as revenge Evan’s father kills Cassie’s father and all bets are off, dying wish or not. Can the two get past there differences and once and for all put an end to a feud that has been going on years? Or will more blood need to be shed first?
I really like the narrator and hope she is the reader for the spin off books. She is great with all the different voices and puts in a lot of energy and emotion into the story.

The cover is way cool and probably my favorite of them all 🙂
I totally love this series, and this book rocked as much as the rest of the series. The only thing I do not like is that there will be no more stories on Cassie which make me really sad.
There is so much going on in this series you are definitely not bored reading it. I wanted to read it straight through and found it really difficult when I had to put it down to take care of my family. Cassie is awesome as always. I love her independence and how she always does what she feels is right whether others agree or not even if it is the family. I wanted to slap Evan a time or two, but I was happy in the end 🙂 This review was harder because I don’t want to give anything away, but so much happens in this story and you don’t want to miss out.
Christine does an awesome job with details and making the story come alive. I’m glad she has a couple books planned for other characters in this world, but I definitely hope this world doesn’t go away because I want more and lots of it.
I highly recommend this series it is a fun series that mixes paranormal and mystery together with lots of action and drama.
