Summary
She set out to save her friends。 What she got was a king。
Not one moment of rest for Gandrett。 Not as she sets out to rescue the Fae male who was taken from her just as she admitted her own feelings for him。 Now， it is up to her—to her fighter’s mind， her determination， and to her growing magic that is expanding far beyond what she thought herself capable of。
If she can hold on just a little longer， she could save them all—Addie， who is suffering in the Dragon King’s claws， Mckenzie， who is fighting her own battles in the southernmost territory， the young Lords of Ackwood and Eedwood who are on their own， and her brother。 Her brother， who might not need saving after all as he is on his way to Ulfray。 But with a king on the Fae throne who is wrongfully inhabiting it， Drew might be just as safe there as anywhere else in Neredyn—which is nowhere。 Because the lands are falling into darkness， and Gandrett must save her own heart before she can save anyone else。

Oh my Secret Court how I have longed for you！As I am reading this long awaited book， I'm getting different vibes。 As if it isn't written as well as the other four🤔，perhaps that's just me though。When Gandrett and Nehelon are together 🥰 I swoon！ I love those two。 I can't believe all the surprise twists， the deaths， the resurrections！ My mind is spinning！ I never even predicted some of the newest developments。 Just wowed me。If I could， I wouldn't have finished it because it's just that good。 Like I Oh my Secret Court how I have longed for you！As I am reading this long awaited book， I'm getting different vibes。 As if it isn't written as well as the other four🤔，perhaps that's just me though。When Gandrett and Nehelon are together 🥰 I swoon！ I love those two。 I can't believe all the surprise twists， the deaths， the resurrections！ My mind is spinning！ I never even predicted some of the newest developments。 Just wowed me。If I could， I wouldn't have finished it because it's just that good。 Like I want to save it for later。 But it was so good that I couldn't stop reading🤦🏽♀️。 The drama of a great book！ I know I said it wasn't written as well as the others， but it's still such a great book！ There is so little to dislike， but one could dislike the ending！ Urgh！ Pulling my hair out as a cliffhanger ends the book。 I need more and I need it now！ *stomping my feet*This is an author that deserves to be a superstar based solely on this one series， she is that good！ This series has been my favorite this year。 I absolutely love the whole series。 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟🌟 Please read this series， you will never regret it！*Thank you to bookfunnel for a free advanced copy in exchange for my honest review！* 。。。more

Really great addition to the series！ I was excited to see some more diversity in terms of romantic preference and I'm looking forward to seeing how this pans out in the next book。 Lots of questions were answered and I found it to be a relatively quick read and fast-paced as well！ Really great addition to the series！ I was excited to see some more diversity in terms of romantic preference and I'm looking forward to seeing how this pans out in the next book。 Lots of questions were answered and I found it to be a relatively quick read and fast-paced as well！ 。。。more

This was very exciting and full of action。 Characters mature and come into their own， alliances are made and the dragon king's power grows。 This follows Gandrett， Drew， Nehelon， Addie， Armand， McKenzie and Brax's story lines。 Can't wait for the next one。 This was very exciting and full of action。 Characters mature and come into their own， alliances are made and the dragon king's power grows。 This follows Gandrett， Drew， Nehelon， Addie， Armand， McKenzie and Brax's story lines。 Can't wait for the next one。 。。。more

I was wondering whether I should reread all the books prior to this one， you know， so I could remind myself of the events BUT within the first few pages， EVERY DETAIL came rushing back to me！ It's a testament to the author， having crafted such an enthralling saga， that it reminded with me。 And boy oh boy， the tension is on immediately， no， "let's wean into the storyline slowly"， just plunge right in and take off where it left off in book 4。 And the phrase， "oh what a tangled web we weave" descri I was wondering whether I should reread all the books prior to this one， you know， so I could remind myself of the events BUT within the first few pages， EVERY DETAIL came rushing back to me！ It's a testament to the author， having crafted such an enthralling saga， that it reminded with me。 And boy oh boy， the tension is on immediately， no， "let's wean into the storyline slowly"， just plunge right in and take off where it left off in book 4。 And the phrase， "oh what a tangled web we weave" describes Angelina to perfection！ From each chain of events， in each of the various kingdoms， the intricacies will have your head spinning， in a delightful way。 What a sweetheart Kepha is， funny， intelligent and downright adorable。 And good grief， how on earth is it possible that EVERY character is totally to die for？ Well not literally， but to each capture a slice of my heart is no easy feat！ My heart was pounding for them， edging them on， rooting for them， crying with them and for them， although I caught myself wanting to rattle McKenzie something silly。 She is such a strong determined individual， she doesn't bend to anyone， yet this stubbornness leads to heartache， mostly her own doing。 But in typical Angelina style， I KNOW she will correct McKenzie's wayward behaviour。 Nehalon and Gandrett grow so much in this particular book， what they both endured was， well quite honestly， horrifying！ So many events， so many complexities， so much endurance， so much intrigue， such vivid scenes， such enthralling storytelling， I could gush forever。 I have quite a few favourite authors， authors that truly draw me in， and turn my stomach into mush， my intestines into knots， and Angelina is one of those。 There's only one thing left for me to say， READ THIS SERIES！ 。。。more
