I just fell more in love with this series. This book went beyond my expectations. You get to know Des soooooo much better in this one and his story is both heartbreaking and beautiful. His and Callie's love for each other grows and grows throughout the story and you can't help but want them to defeat every obstacle in the way of their happiness. Callie becomes more comfortable in who she is and her place in Des' world. And I'm sure their extremely hot sex scenes helped her forget all about her troubles too. 
 Temper was in this book more and you get to see glimpses of her power and she is NOT one to be messed with. On top of peoples' powers becoming more evident, there's lot of fighting and action between Des training Callie and enemies needed their asses kicked. 
 There's still the mystery of who the Thief of Souls is and who's kidnapping the soldiers. I never ever ever guessed who was really behind so much of the evil going on. No idea! It seemed every freaking fairy had some evil agenda. 
 I cannot wait for the next book.
