⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶️🌶️🌶️

I put off reading the last trilogy of The Broken Kingdoms because I didn't want it to end. When I heard other readers talking about Ari and Saga's story, I knew I had to just dive in and read it.

LJ is so great with angst. This enemies to lovers has everything you want in a good story. There's history between the two characters and it was well worth the wait to get to hear their story. Ari and Saga are fully commetted once they make a decision about something and once they commit to each other, I absolutley LOVED how they were all in. Ari surprised me! He's always so self-centered and focused on things. He doesn't like it when people touch his things.

Prophesies are woven throughout The Broken Kingdoms series and this book was full of them. When prophesies are spoken about Saga, Ari is pulled by feelings he never knew or thought he would have. Saga believes that Ari hates her and she believes that she should hate him. So, why does't she?

I can't wait to hear what happens in the next book. They've won one battle, but war still rages on and Saga is desperate to find a way to save Ari.

This is the first narration I’ve listened to by Tim Campbell and Stina Nelson. They did a pretty good job. It took some time to get used to their voices, but soon all I heard was Ari and Saga.

Ari and Saga

To be honest, when the story opened, I was not excited to be listening to the tale of Saga and Ari. I liked Ari as a side character, but never really thought of him as a main character. The more the book went on, the more I enjoyed the two’s tale. The few twists and turns that were thrown in were a delight as well. Although not as good, in my opinion, as the other stories, it fits perfectly and I am excited to see what comes next!

It just gets better and better!

Saga and Ari’s story is almost as amazing as Case and Malin (it’s super close but Case is my forever book boyfriend) such a fun story with the hilarious banter that Ari is known for & Saga gives it right back. The narrators are hands down the best in the biz!

Great book

Another beautifully written book by LJ Andrews. Arie is one of my favorite characters in any book and I adored his banter with Saga. I can’t wait to read the next book!

So good

LJ Andrews has done it again! We have another incredible installment in this exciting world. I can't wait for the next book!!

The story

I don’t write reviews. I will continue the series and write a review when I have completed them all.

I loved the story. There were many interesting characters with fast-paced story development.

I loved this book overall and can’t wait for the next book. The only slightly annoying thing is that names were not consistently pronounced on audible.
