Publisher's summary

Love kills kingdoms …

Back in Grim’s castle on Nightshade, Isla is reeling in the wake of a brutal battle and the devastating truths it exposed. Her future—and the fate of the world—now hinge on a heart split in two.

Past Isla, who fell in love with the ruler of Nightshade, fights to resist feelings she considers treasonous. The Isla of the present, who has seen the ruin her powers can cause, will do anything to save Lightlark and its king.

As the line between enemy and friend is tested, Isla is more desperate than ever to understand the oracle’s final prophecy and change her heartrending fate. But a storm is coming. And with it, a long-buried evil greater than anything the realms have faced before.

With the clock ticking on her destiny and the survival of two warring kingdoms hinging on her own shattered heart, Isla Crown will either save the world—or destroy it.

Cannot dislike Isla more

I’m not finished yet, and I’m debating whether to bother. I despise Isla. I don’t even know why SHE’S made at GRIM. He did everything for her. He shouldn’t be apologizing. He deserves so much better. The other guy (can’t even recall his name) is so lame. And there’s something weird about him never having sex with her. Is he her brother or cousin or something? Yuck. Very disappointing book in this otherwise good series.

The never ending love triangle

***spoiler warning ****
I was so excited for this book to come out…..but pretty much nothing was resolved from the last book. There was a lot of useless added experiences. And the love triangle of course was not resolved, which honestly isn’t written well. It’s like no one likes Oro why are we still dealing with this??? I don’t know if I will continue the series. There are going to have to be a lot better story plots than what’s been presented so far for me to continue. Which is really sad because after Nightshade I was really looking forward to seeing what would happen. The answer…..a whole lot of nothing.

Words cannot describe

The ending was so bad I cannot expect that how are you going to end a book just like that. really come on now.

My heart…

I can’t get enough of these books, I’m so sad I finished this already in 2 days of it getting released and now have to wait again. Really love the little twists and surprises that came out during this book along with questions being answered That we all have been wondering. There were moments where I got excited to learn more about her and her parents, and moments where realization and sadness of what had happened to certain people she had and did care for.

This series is amazing through and through and I am excited for the next book in this series, I can’t wait especially since the cliffhanger we got left on!!

Not Yet Over

based on the ending, there will be another book!
I really enjoy this series. The FMC does make a lot... LOT of mistakes but they're not always so blatantly obvious like some series do.

Cliffhanger

I really thought this was the end of the series - so for that I’m frustrated lol but it was a good book - soooo many you must do this to get that tho - too many in my opinion - but boy the plot has thickened….

Amazing read

Woah! What a cliff hanger at the end yet again. Great story and the writing just keep getting better and better. Worth the read.

The way he loves her

First preorder i have made all year and it did not disappoint. I’m loving the love and Isla’s growth.

Isla’s indecisive personality is annoying!!!!!

Isla doesn’t deserve anyone but herself. She is insufferable. Very predictable. Also wasn’t this supposed to end after this book?!? Why the cliffhanger!!!!

Also the audio was weird at some points. It felt like I was hearing a playback within the actual audio. Almost like it was being recorded by talking into a fan and your voice makes that weird sound with it.

It was great!!!!

Without spoilers it has a great plot and is even better then the two last it is heartbreaking and soooo good it is sad and a lot of people die but I enjoyed it vary much
