Review:
Silk was a wonderful conclusion to The Princess & the Spy Trilogy! Fantasy lovers that are a fan of tortured heroes, fearless heroines, and steamy moments may fall hard for this book! With a fabulous HEA and tons of heart, this story was a lot of fun!
‘You’ll stay with me, won’t you? Whatever happens?’
‘Velvet…’ The joyless smile on his lips nearly made her burst out in tears again. ‘I’ll never not be on your side. I promise.’
Viviette and Jaghar were back home, but again mystery was laced throughout the pages. With a murder to solve and their enemy unknown, they had to work harder than ever to find out what was going on. Trials tested and pushed them to their limits, but Viviette and Jaghar kept proving themselves worthy. They were both so clever and smart, and while I was nervous a future between them wouldn’t work, I kept the hope alive!
‘It’ll be alright. Stay with me. I don’t want to let go of you tonight.’
He pulled her back against his chest, wrapping the blankets around them with trembling arms. ‘But tomorrow…’
‘Tomorrow,’ Viviette said, nestling herself against him and closing her eyes, ‘we fight.’
With this story, I guessed one of the huge twists. But I definitely didn’t guess the next part of it or what one of our favorite characters would do eeps! So much was more than meets the eye and this story kept me on my toes and turning those pages faster. As the story unfolded, I loved how so many questions were answered and that we were given a fabulous ending to this trilogy! But at the same point, so much is still going on in the Five Kingdoms and I can’t wait to see other series set in this world! If you’re looking for a completed fantasy series to binge and are a fan of star crossed lovers, then definitely check this one out!
