Omg, I can't believe I haven't left a review for this book yet!

Witty banter galore, kick-ass heroine, and smexy sexy Willy, this is one of my favorite books in this series, possibly even edging out my usual favorite (The Darkest Whisper)!!

Every time I read this, I have a constant smile on my face. I love William constantly bellowing and roaring - it was possessive, amusing, and cute all at once. William has no idea what to do with Sunny at first, but he quickly catches on ;)

This was a highly anticipated book for me - for about 12 years. At first, like a lot of fans, I was not sold on this whole William and not Gilly thing, even after reading Gilly's book. But TBH, after reading this book, I absolutely cannot see anyone for William except Sunny. So if you're a fan who's unsure to read this because of that whole debacle, please trust and just read this one!
