Sweet Reckoning was not as strong as the first two books (yes, the second book of the series is actually strong believe it or not), but I still recommend it since it pulls together the whole story.
Also, the epilogue was the absolute sweetest. I typically don't like epilogues but this one was 100% necessary and so wholesome.

Note: This book is NA as there is a closed-door scene between a married couple. ( )

Anna finally has human friends, awww. Until... Less aww.

Child pregnancy.
Child pregnancy and labor.
Now she has... One human friend.

At one point her adoptive mom is just tortured in front of her and she prays to heaven and heaven actively ignores her prayers. I feel like my reviews are a little bit slurred and I should have drank while doing this because this scene alone is so bizarre. We know there are angels, we know there are demons, and thus there would be god. So we have an angel praying to God as their stepmother is tortured in front of them and nobody does anything. Not the other angels, nobody. What is the point?

After Anna marries Kaiden, her father-in-law starts groping her and grinding against her and being very sexually attracted to her. Weird. But at this point I'm three books into child trafficking and once you're eighteen you can be paired off with old demons and used like a sock. So I think Wendy just has a really messed up mind and writes it out into children fantasy books.

At one point Kaiden's dad asks him if he can have a threesome with Kaiden and Anna. I wasn't prepared for incest to somehow pop into this. Which means that my thoughts in the first review where I said 'I wonder if they're related' have now become even worse. Much worse.

I know this is supposed to be a Christian romance, with all sorts of Christian messages, but at this point I have had sex trafficking, child sex trafficking, genitalia mutilation, and now step dad's wanting to have sex with their barely legal step-daughter in law. I don't know what religion I'm supposed to take away from this. Usually a religious book is so offensive and the other way of telling me that there is no way beyond their religion and so on. This one is offensive in the way that everybody's an awful person and there's also so much child sex. What faith is this?

If this is what religious teaching is, we need to redo all of it.

Kaiden marries her and thus is reborn and... Good again. All is forgiven and all of his flaws are cleansed off his body via magic pussy.
What?
I don't know how they can be dukes of hell and also suddenly wiped clean, and not just me cleansed and turned into angels. Very weird. Aren't demons nothing but fallen angels, he should be an angel now.

At the end everyone is paired off into heterosexual relationships, the straightness has cured everyone of their problems for example the racial discrimination, etc. It's extremely generic romance ending and I cringed at it. The fact that some of these characters did not want relationships and were deep in the pit of needing recovery and therapy, and they were cured by a magic pussy or a magic cock makes me feel disgusted. It's not a good ending with how broken most of these characters are.

0.5 stars. How is it not over yet? ( )

I want need Kai. This series, all the fangirling/flailing right now. I just finished and I already miss everyone. The epilogue though. I sigh for Kai. Definitely one of my favorite series of all time. ( )

I am so sad it is over! I thought there was one more book, but book four is following Kaiden and his POV.

Book three may be my favorite so far which is not surprising since it has the most romance in the series. If you have a younger child reading this, this one does have a sex scenes and more sex talk than the others.
I also loved the build up of the relationships and also the anticipation of the upcoming fight. I had adrenaline at times waiting to see what was going to happen.

The big moment arrived and it was very anti-climactic. I wanted and needed more. There was a very emotional scene right before everything happened, but after that it was pretty underwhelming. This was the only part of the book that I just did not love.

Again, like the others, I love all of the characters. We get even more romance in this one as every couple pretty much is paired up.

Overall, this book had me swoon, laugh, and cry. I really enjoyed this series much more than I was expecting. ( )

It was so intense. I am definitely sad because the series is over, but I love every book in the trilogy. Many events in the book took me by surprise, and I'm way in love with Kaidan! ( )
