Torched

Ive been reading all of the books in the series and this has to be my favorite so far!!! Love the story development. Finished in 5 hours because it was too good to put down!

I loved...loved...loved that Ulrick finally got his story told! Puzzles are finally put into place. I’ll be sad when this series end.

Donna's authors note in the beginning about how she didn't know if Ulrik could be redeemed is the perfect way to start this book. Over the past few books, we've seen that good and evil aren't always black and white or Dark and Light. Ulrik has had centuries to finesse his plot to challenge Con, destroy the kings and unleash the dragons on earth removing us mortals from it. However, underneath it all, is that what he actually wants? I loved Eilish and Ulrik together. Donna Grant's characters are strong willed and multi-layered. Eilish's strength, drive, and compassion are what Ulrik needs to realize his quest for vengeance isn't the answer. I was glad to see the end of some characters and can't wait for the end of a few others. As I've stopped reading the Dark Alpha series after the second book, I was a little surprised to see Bran, Cael, and Death show up here. I'm hoping we don't need to read both series as we get closer the final book in this one. I can handle the drama from only 1 couple that seems to never get together as the series progresses. Not sure I can handle Cael and Death's as well 😉. I'm counting down the months for Dragonfire.
