I started off this book really excited to get back into the lives of Pia and Dragos and have a new story dedicated to them. 
 What lacked in the last book in terms of high stakes and action, this book made up for it! 
 Their relationship is rocky, as expected and as realistically as it can be, with Dragos temper and dominance while Pia's refusal to wield and take shit from him. She refused to give up her independence when he forced himself on her, such as using words like "allow/forbid/ command" 
 The respect is still there and you can see that they really do love each other very much. Heck their relationship, especially as reuniting had me as giddy and giggly as a teenage fan girl. I really love these two together. Heck he even says please! And started to tell her words of endearment 
 They do seem like true partners. 
 At least, I didn't like Pia in this story all that much, I just couldn't remember her being so ... well Bitchy in the first book but then again I could cut her some slack since A) she's pregnant and very hormonal and B) she was traveling with a group of people whom she didn't like and they didn't like her in return. 
 Eva was a fun addition to the cast of characters this series has created; I really enjoyed her character but I was so scared (view spoiler)[because I suspected that she was going to die in this book because her character was so similar to Cameron in book 2 that she would share the same fate. Thankfully she's still around and is just as badass as when he first met her. (hide spoiler)] 
 The battle was intense! The suspense had me holding my breath (view spoiler)[and screamed out loud when Dragos and the Elf High lord came crashing down. The death of the high lord devastated me, I couldn't help but get teary eyed other the fact; but in battle, sometimes you lose some people you've grown attached to. (hide spoiler)] 
 There was one thing in the battle that bugged me, Pia was running around, getting thrown left and right and slamming onto things while being pregnant? I found myself surprised that she didn't have any complications or trouble doing all that and not having a miscarriage. Maybe it's because she's a Wyr or maybe her baby is a dragon that gave her more support. 
 I wanted more from the Villain; I found myself being drawn to this character and couldn't help but feel he could be helped. His death was also bittersweet to me just because I found his character so intriguing. 
 I expected to see more of the Sentinel Games. Since they were a big thing to the Wyr domain. 
 I also expected to see more of Dragos and Rune, considering how important it was for them. 
 We kinda got hints of them kinda mending their relationship but it didn't feel completely resolved to me. 
 The Peanut, oh the peanut *coughs* I mean Liam is so cute in Pia's dreams. I can't wait to see what he would add to Dragos and Pia's relationship. I love Liam already! 
 (view spoiler)[ I found it hilarious how Pia was putting on makeup while have contractions because it was her son's birthday XD (hide spoiler)] 
 I'm glad to see Quentin back in action since book 1 as well as the introduction of a new character Alexander, who is a Pegasus. I'm so interested to explore their characters more. 
 Next story is all about Quentin and Aryal, from what the author gave us in this book; their story is going to be full of fireworks, cuts, bruises and a whole lot of anger. I can't wait to see how their relationship blossoms! 
 Rating: 4.5 / 5 stars
