Besotted, Bewitched, Captivated, and Charmed are all words that are synonymous with the word Enamoured which is something I am in regard to this author, and her books. Yet, none of them completely do justice considering that this book/duet was EVERYTHING I wanted and more. To say that she had mesmerized me before would have been a gross understatement. I devour her words as if they are the air I need to breathe. I was waiting on bated breath for this conclusion since the first part ended on a WHOPPER of a cliffhanger. Despite knowing that it would work out for the characters because they were married in a certain scene in the Evolution of Sin Trilogy, I still needed to know how it came to be because goodness knows their journey had been anything but smooth.
This conclusion gave me all the answers that I had as well as some pretty heartbreaking scenes. One of the things I loved the most about this is that this author again gave me a strong female character to show that just because she is a woman doesn't mean that she isn't equal or just as strong despite her feminity. That is powerful to me. Alexander. sweet Lord. That man. he, just like their relationship is complex. While he might seem intimidating, and often is, there is still a sense of vulnerability in him that he only lets Cosima see. Even when gruff he still shows that he loves fiercely enough that he could move mountains if he had to because it is embedded into the very template of who he is.
The storyline was complex. It tied in a whole other series with ease and filled in all the other blanks. It was balanced between suspense, ending threats, steamy times and finally a fantastic Happily Ever After. I am looking forward to the next book (BOY, am I EVER) since both of those characters are long overdue for it.
For all the people that are on the fence about reading this because of the negative reviews due to the delay in the release of this book following Enamoured then I say let it go. Real-life happens and it should NEVER get in the way of getting lost in a book with fantastic characters that are long overdue for love. If you then you miss out on an epic love story and the masterful words of this fantastic author.
