This was the final full book based on the wildly wonderful Darby Adler and her rag tag group of friends， family， and allies。 I laughed， I cried， I even swooned a time or two！ I’m so happy with how this story played out I’m not even sure I can put it into words， but I’ll give it a go。From book 1 we have watched Darby grow as a character。 Who she is on the first page of book 1 is so SO far from who she is on the last page of book 7。 I think this of what makes the story so good！ Darby is real to us This was the final full book based on the wildly wonderful Darby Adler and her rag tag group of friends， family， and allies。 I laughed， I cried， I even swooned a time or two！ I’m so happy with how this story played out I’m not even sure I can put it into words， but I’ll give it a go。From book 1 we have watched Darby grow as a character。 Who she is on the first page of book 1 is so SO far from who she is on the last page of book 7。 I think this of what makes the story so good！ Darby is real to us because she changes and grows！I think my favorite part of all of Annie’s books is that she has the perfect balance of spice， snark， and enough reality to make it relatable to most people。 If you want a great series to binge， this is it！ I’ve read most of this series several times， this book will be no exception。 Don’t miss the audio book when it’s released either！ The narrator for this series， and all of Annie’s books， is absolutely amazing。 She doesn’t read you the book， she tells you the story！ Best narrator I’ve heard in almost 200 Audible book purchases。 Run， don’t walk， to buy it！The ending is exactly what we all would want for Darby， but everything that happens before the end is an absolutely wild ride！ Annie Anderson does not know how to disappoint！ Action， romance， danger， but most importantly snark！ Oh how I’ll miss that Darby snark！ Or maybe not， if you “read between the lines” I think we’ll be seeing Darby in upcoming stories that have yet to be told。 😉I see many more stories in the future with appearances by all of our favorite Annie characters coming in the future， hopefully for an extremely long time！ 🤞🏻 The World she has built for all of them is absolutely fantastic。Thank you Annie for sharing this character and her adventures， it has been amazing to read it all！ Can’t wait for the next story you tell！。I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

Love itAnnie Anderson is the author I compare everyone else to in this genre。 This did not disappoint！ I cannot decide which series is my favorite since i love them all so much。 The ending is perfect。 I recommend signing up this the bonus scene too if you like her work。 It was just absolutely the best addition to a flawless ending。 Can't wait for the next series to start this summer with a new couple and find out who will be in the next crew。 Love itAnnie Anderson is the author I compare everyone else to in this genre。 This did not disappoint！ I cannot decide which series is my favorite since i love them all so much。 The ending is perfect。 I recommend signing up this the bonus scene too if you like her work。 It was just absolutely the best addition to a flawless ending。 Can't wait for the next series to start this summer with a new couple and find out who will be in the next crew。 。。。more

I didn't want it to end And at the same time I couldn't put it down to know Bishop's final moments。 I looove Darby and Aemon， their a beautiful couple and I'm soo happy they got their Happy Ending。 I'm happy we got good closure， we got to see all our amazing characters。 Got a little worried there for a minute about Hildy but it all work out in the end。 Can't believe it was the last one but I do understand and I'm happy with the outcome。 I didn't want it to end And at the same time I couldn't put it down to know Bishop's final moments。 I looove Darby and Aemon， their a beautiful couple and I'm soo happy they got their Happy Ending。 I'm happy we got good closure， we got to see all our amazing characters。 Got a little worried there for a minute about Hildy but it all work out in the end。 Can't believe it was the last one but I do understand and I'm happy with the outcome。 。。。more

This had me smiling before the story even started with the Dear Readers introduction lol。I just had to drop everything and read this as soon as I saw it。And it was worth it do much！Darby again is fighting to save her family and the world even though they don't know it。But you just wait and see who she finally falls for。。。please， like he was even going to give her a chance to say no lol。I absolutely loved this story and series and the ending was perfect。I received a free copy of this book and am This had me smiling before the story even started with the Dear Readers introduction lol。I just had to drop everything and read this as soon as I saw it。And it was worth it do much！Darby again is fighting to save her family and the world even though they don't know it。But you just wait and see who she finally falls for。。。please， like he was even going to give her a chance to say no lol。I absolutely loved this story and series and the ending was perfect。I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

And to think I thought I had a bad ex！ Darby has the ex from Hell， though maybe not literally。 This book is intense from beginning to end; satisfying， amusing， and emotional。 It is a series that will stay on my "to be read" or would that be re-read， list。 And to think I thought I had a bad ex！ Darby has the ex from Hell， though maybe not literally。 This book is intense from beginning to end; satisfying， amusing， and emotional。 It is a series that will stay on my "to be read" or would that be re-read， list。 。。。more

I have enjoyed each of the books in this series featuring Darby Adler and her friends。 I have to say that I am sorry that her adventures are coming to an end！Darby is the Warden of Knoxville， but her main concern is finding and destroying her lying ex， Bishop La Roux。 But， she can't seem to find him and none of her sources can find him， either。 Darby has to go through Hell and back， but she is determined to destroy him at all costs！ "Spite was a hell of a motivator， after all"。If you enjoy a tou I have enjoyed each of the books in this series featuring Darby Adler and her friends。 I have to say that I am sorry that her adventures are coming to an end！Darby is the Warden of Knoxville， but her main concern is finding and destroying her lying ex， Bishop La Roux。 But， she can't seem to find him and none of her sources can find him， either。 Darby has to go through Hell and back， but she is determined to destroy him at all costs！ "Spite was a hell of a motivator， after all"。If you enjoy a tough， foul mouthed heroine， some incredibly sexy bedroom scenes and tons of supernatural creatures， you have come to the right place with this series and this amazing book。I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

Darby and the crews last book， and what a book it was！ This is the conclusion to the Grave Talker series that began with Dead to me。 If you haven’t read the rest of the series start with that one， you can thank me later！ So， Darby is still recovering from the shenanigans in Dead Wrong and trying to convince herself that one of the princes of hell stopping by just to see how she is， is nothing unusual （the chemistry between Darby and Aemon is just beautiful！）Bishop is in the wind but still managi Darby and the crews last book， and what a book it was！ This is the conclusion to the Grave Talker series that began with Dead to me。 If you haven’t read the rest of the series start with that one， you can thank me later！ So， Darby is still recovering from the shenanigans in Dead Wrong and trying to convince herself that one of the princes of hell stopping by just to see how she is， is nothing unusual （the chemistry between Darby and Aemon is just beautiful！）Bishop is in the wind but still managing to cause death and destruction and It’s up to Darby to find him when starts targeting the people she loves。 The story is fast paced and beautifully written and I wanted to just sink into it and not come out。 It is a tough read in places （there are warnings for a reason） but it also just made me smile。 As a finale it was the perfect mix of plot and catching up with old characters from this series and the crossover series Soul Reader。 A few surprises and a few ‘Oh， about time people’ just added to the feeling of completeness in this book。Triggers- Lots！ There is a warning on the first page， take it seriously， Annie does not mess about in this book。 Nothing too major in the language and sex department either so all good if that’s not your cup of tea。I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

Holy goodness what a finale。 I’m reeling。 I really love the way she writes about trauma。 We don’t sugarcoat it。 It’s real and it hurts and we keep going。 And coming out the other side stronger in spite of it， with your support network， is really amazing。 I love Darby and Aemon so much。 I love this whole world。

So， this is the final book in the Grave Talker series and oh my freaking goodness it did not disappoint。 I mean Annie Anderson never disappoints。 But wow what a freaking bang！！ Darby is a riot。 I love her。 She is legit one of those strong and sassy heroines that stays that way from the beginning to end。 She doesn’t change into some wilting flower。 She just gets better and better as the series goes on。 She has been through so freaking much from day one。 It’s nuts how much one woman can go through So， this is the final book in the Grave Talker series and oh my freaking goodness it did not disappoint。 I mean Annie Anderson never disappoints。 But wow what a freaking bang！！ Darby is a riot。 I love her。 She is legit one of those strong and sassy heroines that stays that way from the beginning to end。 She doesn’t change into some wilting flower。 She just gets better and better as the series goes on。 She has been through so freaking much from day one。 It’s nuts how much one woman can go through and the hits keep coming in this book。 But she’s just like ok， ok， well this seems to be on par for my life but I have to keep my people safe so let’s just keep going and pretty much never takes her gloves off。 And oh Aemon…just wow！ What a Prince of Hell。 The chemistry between him and Darby is awesome！ The banter is even better。 But even though all the craziness that happened there’s that something there and you straight up feel it。 Yeah， he just shines in his demon way in this book。 I can’t even begin to say how much I wanted to punch Bishop in the face， like time and time again throughout the whole series。 But I swear to fates this was on another level， oh there are so many choice words I have for him during this book。 I swear you didn’t think he could get worse and then BAM， he does。 I love seeing all my favorite side characters in this book。 Man some parts hit you so hard to where you’re freaking out with some of them。 You really won’t want to put this book down until you finish it。 I highly recommend this entire series！ But this book just blew me away。 I couldn’t have asked for a better ending to Darby’s story。I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more
