Making hard choices is nothing new for Ari, but when it comes to saving others, she struggles to do what is best for the majority—saving many means biding her time while Ari and her friends prepare to cause big change in the Fae realm. Mage Trials, gaining allies, and learning to control their abilities are slowing them down, but the end game is worth every drop of blood, sweat, and tears. Kozlo and Candace struggle with maneuvering their budding relationship and bond as she grows into her magic and High Mage role. How will Ari gain the respect and support of the different kingdoms, save the owned humans, and smuggle them to safety? When the ultimate test of power comes to pass, Ari is determined not only to break the curse and complete the prophecy but also to do whatever it takes to gain lasting peace among the different kingdoms.

Warning! If you are not at least 18 years old, please do not read this book. There is a fair amount of profanity used in the trilogy. This is a Fae fated mates trilogy in which the MFC ends up with multiple men in a committed and destined relationship. The first and second books of this trilogy will end in cliffhangers, with the final book concluding the series. HEA guaranteed. No M/M. Also considered a 4+ Reverse Harem.
*Fantasy Map included in book orders for books 2 and 3 as well as the e-versions.
*Attention* An autoimmune Spoonie wrote this book. Things may not be perfectly composed, so I apologize ahead of time to those expecting it to be. People with chronic illnesses do the best they can, but it is rarely "perfect." Cover Wen-Y. Y. Map Carolin G.
Possible Triggers: Captivity with servitude, fighting with light gore scenes with not main characters. Goddess smackdowns. A character that struggles with PTSD from captivity. Possible pregnancy triggers near the end.
I was getting lost at times... Like who is speaking and because of that had to rearead some paragraphs.
I feel like this plot was sooo logical? Can't find better word to describe it. Like everything in this series had checklist of what FMC hsd to do in order to accomplish what was set for her when she was born... Well her and others. In the same time I feel like it's also bit chaotic in a way of how FMC acts?
1st book was all about Ari being fragile physically so she had to be protected, in 2nd boook she took 180 and became ultimate powerhouse and protector in the same time she wasn't really acting as herself. and in 3rd book she mostly took a step back and Candance was the main character in it...
I feel like V got forgotten most of the time and was there for no reason... Like what's the point of him getting powers and basically not using them. It was actually quite opposite since his powers was more of a nuisance.
Tori... she basically leveled up and that's that... Like the only reason for her to get the powers and it being left as it was it would be for her to be a character in any future book...
There was too many repeating of info and explanations... Tooo much of cloak and dagger about Ari's powers and her connection to Goddess...
I think Candy part with Mage trials took way more of the 3rd book then actual finale which was kind of sudden and not nearly satisfiying.
Not rating because I'm confused mostly... I kinda had to take breaks from reading to actually finish it. I think the pacing of events was main reason for it, but also the way some characters were forgotten and push aside so the 'checklist' could be completed.
Saved by Healing Spoons concludes Ari, her mates and her friend’s story seeing them trying to gather the forces they need to save the realm from the curse that was cast upon Ari’s birth. I enjoyed reading this book, it was filled with action and I enjoyed seeing how everything ended. I really hope that there is a spin off series about what happened at the end of the book, after reading this series I know that would be something I would enjoy. Overall, a great conclusion to an enjoyable trilogy and one I would recommend reading.
