I have to admit I thought I wasn't going to like this story because the first few chapters were depressing and I wanted to get the story over with. It is Lia Riley, ladies and gents. She kicked ass with this story. It was a beautiful, gorgeous, well-written ending to this highly anticipated novel to the Off The Map series. When I read that Bran was thinking of leaving her again, I was about to go crazy. He became the bigger person and stayed throughout the difficulties he had to live with every day for Talia. I believe Bran's character has developed fairly well throughout the whole series, especially in this story.

The sexy bits, like the one above in that sexy excerpt, yeah that one. Things get really hot in this story but what I loved is that they show so much affection while they are at it, they give each other completely until they become oneā€”not only sexually but emotionally as well.

Bran's and Talia's story has come to an end and I am feeling bitter-sweet. While I wanted to finally have an ending so they could be happy, I also didn't want it to end because their journey has been ups and down right from the start and this couple FOUGHT HARD until the end and THAT is what real love is. You fight through your darkest times together, united. Lia Riley showed us that with Bran and Talia.
