He's finally experienced love- a completely new, unknown and very scary feeling and he has no clue what to do or how to act. He was judged and cast out before he said a word. How anyone can blame him for how he is is beyond me. But I love Phoenix- I have since book 1 and I will until the last one. And fingers crossed for that Spence spin-off. Can't wait till Endless and hope Phoenix gets something good out of all of it. So, it's been a while since I read Enticed but this book pretty much summed up all the important details from the previous books. And the not she left him near the end was sweet, and I found myself, hoping too that he'd read it with a smile and not a frown, despite my leniency towards Phoenix. I guess because its' solely based on their love and not lust, which makes it all the more romantic. The scene where Lincoln and Violet are forced to kiss is so beautifully written. He's different, honest - if I were in Phoenix's position, I would stop at nothing to kill you, Violet, honest - (unless he has ulterior motives) and amusing.

I found myself liking Onyx more and more. Or maybe what he is will be a major plot line of the story which is completely contradictory to what I just said so maybe I should just keep my thoughts about him to myself, yes? I wish I could do that.ĭapper is still a mystery and I have a feeling we may never find out what he is. Although, I do admit that part where she blew up the boat of exiles into the water was COMPLETELY badass. She's cold, calculating, manipulative and a well written, consistent b*tch of a character, but, oh did I hate her. He's so innocent in all of it but he keeps gerring burned, by his wife, then his daughter. Oh my god, I feel so sorry for her father. I mean, yeah, she abandoned her and her hubby and also traded Violet's 'fate' but doesn't she at least deserve a chance to explain? Not everything is black and white, VIOLET!! Plus, she is your mother!Īnd the ending. That part made me a little teary and I really, really hope that he gets his own HEA (coming from a masochist reader, that says a lot) or at least karma for saving those all those lives - human and Grigori, alike - from the volcano and tsunami.Įvelyn. I loved that little snippet of a chapter from Phoenix's POV and although it was a little random, it showed us how HUMAN and vulnerable he really was. At first, I could not believe that he could be that cruel and would intentionally get Rudyard killed, and thankfully, I was right. I fell in love with him more and more by each chapter. His loyalty was relentless and every time that guy opens his mouth, I either gush or smile.

If you could hug a fictional character, I'd smother him. I liked the little insight we got about is family (or lack of) albeit, it made me sad for him. Jessica Shirvington, please, please, PLEASE make a spin-off series with Spence.
