i’ll miss that series so much 🥲

okay that author KNOWS how to write good stalker romance books- i have to admit i loved book 2 more than this one but it was still so good !! (alright i love Imani so much the only thing i couldn’t stand was Jael’s jealousy toward her 😭)

the only thing that needs to stop is the constant mention of Brontë’s “big dick” i swear i cringed every single time 😭

anyway i still recommend it BUT check TW please !!

ummm

So I was super excited for part 3. I think because I wanted Kaden and Lyra reunion. I enjoyed Jael’s story but not as much as Imani and Lyra’s. This one felt very chaotic and idk it kind of makes sense since Jael is clearly insane. The ending was bittersweet…..😭I want to know what happened with Lyra and Imani. Urgh I’m going to miss everyone.

The third book in the Midnight Society trilogy brings an end to the converging stories of three beautiful, strong FMC’s. In this third installment, Lyra’s sister Jael is released from the mental hospital where she has spent years being treated for mental health challenges, and she begins her search for her sister Lyra who she lost touch with many years beforehand. The big challenge that Jael is forced to deal with as she searches for her sister, is the man who has haunted her for years in the mental hospital, and after her release she begins to see him in her real life as well. Once it’s confirmed that he isn’t a figment of her imagination as she was led to believe by the medical staff that previously treated her, she confronts him and they begin to get to know each other in an initially visceral way. All this while Jael evades the authorities searching for her after her release, and her and her “shadow man” are forced to work together to avoid capture and search for answers after her sister Lyra’s disappearance. Though it’s a slow burn, their attraction to each other is undeniable, and the resulting passion changes the dynamic between them from a cat and mouse game, to allies searching for answers. If you’re looking for a stalker romance to get lost in, I highly recommend this one.

Loved Jael’s story but the Lyra-Jael relationship lacking

I have been waiting for this book for awhile! Ever since Jael was revealed in book 2. Jael and Bronte did not disappoint. I wish we had another book for them because it feels like they have more to say and do. I took a star off because Jael never got her moment/closure with Lyra. I had to go back to book 1 to remind myself of Lyra’s story and I was even more disappointed! Lyra’s story had little mention of Lyra’s relationship/dynamic with Jael. I won’t go into specifics in case someone hasn’t read book 1. However, it felt like all these people(Jael and Imani) loved Lyra so much and they risked everything for her but they didn’t have the same level of importance in Lyra’s life. I was just disappointed in that part of the storyline. I wished the bond between Lyra and Jael was portrayed differently when considering Lyra’s point of view in book 1. I wanted Lyra’s character in book 1 to show more regard, love and consideration for Jael. But I still enjoyed Jael and Bronte’s story. It was worth the wait!

2⭐️
3.5🌶

I felt like this book was too all over the place. I know Jael is also all over the place, but the pacing seemed so scattered. I also felt like I was out of touch with reality while reading Jael's chapters (especially in the beginning). That made my second guess what truly happened in the beginning.

Since in the beginning, It was stated that Jael's point of view was untrustworthy, I thought we would circle back in the end and state what truly happened.

I like the Brönte chapters because it gave room to truly explain what was happening in the story.

I think more Brönte chapters would have paced the book better.

Overall, I'm kind of disappointed in how it turned out.

I’m not crying you are !! ( spoilers )

Jael and Brontë ahhhh I love them so much even though she is literally crazy and I mean crazy she’s a sweetheart that only wanted her sister back and I can’t fault her for that she found her beast and her beast became her knight. The smut…wild and good zooooo weeeeeee mama!! This series has been so good but I it’s bittersweet bc I wanted jael and Imani to reconnect with Lyra it’s what they all deserved I wanted Lyra to see how much her sister loved her looked for her can’t she see the news find your sister!! No but seriously I need a novella where they all come back together it something!! This one made me cry multiple times I really felt for jael and I hope it’s only happiness for her and bronte

Well written

This was a well written story. Sienne has a way of giving you a visceral insight into the characters and what they've gone through. Although the material is very heavy at times and I really didn't care for the ending, it's still an engaging story. I was rooting for Jael.....I hope we can get a conclusion.

Such a good conclusion!!

I started this trilogy, not knowing and had to WAIT for this book! 😩😩😩 But, it was soo good! Nice and morally black, just how I like my stalker romances to be. 😂🤣🤣 So, with that being said, please mind your trigger warnings! But, still loved it!!
