While the first book clearly had a plot that could be followed, the second book started to slide away from the plot, and this book was the final stage in leaving the plot behind to read on and on about how powerful and mysterious Wrath could be, how powerful and cold Emilia could be, and how much sex they could have. A disappointing end to a trilogy that had a promising start.

Almost any and all character development was discarded to instead focus on Emilia’s constant, CONSTANT, waxing poetic about Wrath. Almost all the side characters appear just to serve the minimally developed plot line and then immediately disappear until they’re needed again.

To be clear, there is a plot and it can be followed, but it feels very much like an afterthought to the sex and relationship. It is rushed and conveniently pieced together, occasionally being forced back to the forefront to remind readers that there is supposed to be a point to this story.

There are two plot lines that never got resolved? Or maybe they did and I missed it because, like most plot elements of this book, they got one or two sentences and then we returned to how hot, powerful, and mysterious Wrath is.

I originally rated this book, then left it, had time to reflect, and came back to lower my rating. I wanted to love this and I absolutely didn’t.
