I had the same problem with this book as I did with the second in the series: I cared about the relationship, but very little about the rest of the plot. So any time the story went chapter after chapter without much happening between Gage and Aury, I got bored and sort of skimmed.
Which is unfortunate because I LOVED them! Again, the tenderness and the sweetness did me in. But I don’t think I’ll be continuing with the series anymore. Soul Eater was perfect, but I haven’t enjoyed the subsequent stories to even a fraction of the same degree.

Quickly becoming one of my favourite series!
I loved the two mains in this story, and I’m telling you, I didn’t think any couple could surpass my love for Danny & Wyn. Gage (human) & Aury (the Ryke) are the sweetest little duo. Throw in some pet chickens and it’s solidified!!
While Aury is similar to Wyn in that they’re both “big bad monsters” that most fear, Wyn has that little bit of a snarky edge while Aury is one of the gentlest, shy beasties we’ve come to meet. We also got some more interactions with the caged Aytorin and Moth, lining up the next two books.
The world Lily had created here is unique and enthralling - I love how they all weave together and can’t wait to continue.
