Between Imminent Fates

Rate this book
Centuries of planning. Thousands of lives. One final stand.

When their enemies wage an extermination war, the leaders of the immortal world must focus on survival. The repercussions of a single mistake can cast them into fire, but trusting a deceptive foreseer is far from simple.

For centuries, Key has shaped the future of the immortal races with her visions, but success is still far from secure. As the strands she’s weaved twist together in a single night, everything balances on the edge of a knife.

With every thread that falls into place, another unravels. A fated mate abandoned before they are claimed. A loyal lieutenant forced into an untenable position. A clan devastated after minds are shattered.

Only one thing is should the plan fail, their lives are forfeit.

Wonderful ending to the series. So good. Was I in my feelings? Oh yeah. Did I cry? Absolutely. Was I at one point yelling at my Ipad “oh you better not! I dont care if he told you to! DONT.YOU.DARE.” Quite possibly. Did I also have to take a break because I had an “unfairness of the world moment”. I mean I knew they were, but she just couldnt catch a break sooner. BTW the author is amazing, and always gives us HEA, but when I read I live in the characters. I forget this. How? I dont know okay? It happens. Often if Im honest. Which is why I have melt downs reading sometimes, and need “unfairness of the world moments”. It doesnt matter the characters aren’t real they are real when I’m reading them sooo. Anyways. If you havent caught on it takes you for a little bit of emotional rollercoaster ride. It does wrap the whole series in a perfect little bow. Honestly, it took serious skill. This series is complex, with tons of characters, different supernatural beings, interal-ish conflicts, territories, and then the bad guys! I’m like wow, okay. She managed to do it beautifully though. Ripped my heart out while doing it beautifully lol. Okay seriously though, this ending book is perfection. The book kept me pulled in until the last page (very close to the end I will say I was pulled in to the point on panic, but again.. this isnt a bad thing lol). Loved it! Absolutely loved it. My favorite book in the series? Yes. Is that weird? Probably. IDC, but it is. I see all the characters, theres so much happening. It had me in a chokehold. Its my favorite book in the series.

This Paranormal Romance is book 12 in the Immortal Accords series. This is the final book in the series. The romance in this book is mate bonds. The book is a adult romance book, and does have adult themes while still remaining fairly clean. The book moves at a quick pace following the characters introduced throughout the series coming up with a plan to defeat the citizens for a final time. The first half of the book does focus heavily on Key, a seer who has foreseen the upcoming events, and Jax as they work together. As well as them build a budding relationship together. If they fail all of the supernatural world will fall. The second half of the book focuses heavily on Derikles, and Celeste as they try to figure out a way to fix the current dilemma in their separate territories, as an attraction burns between them. Lives hanging in the balance. This book is fast paced, emotional, and addictive.

Wow. This no spice paranormal fantasy finale was thorough and a wild ride. It tore my heart out! We got to have perspectives from multiple characters throughout this series and it really blended well and kept the tension high as we got bits and pieces of the forseerer’s predictions.

How to review this book without spoilers is the hard part. We have 2 parts in this book - basically 2 books in one without having to wait after a cliffhanger for the next to release - and get multiple angles of romance, though the romance takes a backseat to the fantasy and war time preparations.

There was family, found family, all of the immortal paranormal creatures from this series along with humans, a war, and so much more. This book did such a great job of wrapping things up that, while it’s always sad to see a series end, I don’t feel like I’m missing any pieces. It was a satisfying conclusion. The romance is fade-to-black within a mated pair, intimacy level 3. 4.5 stars rounded up to 5.

Very satisfying conclusion to the series! Loved the addition of Jax and the two couples in this last book were wonderful. All my favorites were there, some had larger roles than others. And the epilogues - loved seeing a picture of everyone years later. Well done!

Y'all. No words. I have no words right now. I am absolutely speechless. Where in the ever loving world do I even begin with writing my review? How can I tell everyone in the entire book world that they absolutely 10000000000% need to read this series? I have no clue. But I'm going to give it my best shot.

Citizens of the Light have gone too far. They are growing too big. They need to be stopped. All the plotting, the planning, the manipulating, everything. It will all make sense in the end. Key and Jax. Derikles and Celeste. They are vital keys that have been missing from completing the the entire mission. In the end, no one knows what will happen. But there's no turning back.

Words can not adequately describe the love I have for every single one of these characters. Their sacrifices, pain, unconditional love, loyalty, trust, everything about them. From the beginning to the end, I was ensnared and invested. I was transported right into the thick of things and didn't want to leave for a single second. I was all in.

All I have to say is sit back, buckle in tight, and get ready for the biggest rollercoaster ride of your life! You will feel all the feels and I mean every single last one of them. Anger, peace, sadness, happiness, hate, love. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to throw your book/kindle across the room, you'll curse the author to high heaven, but you'll love her in the end. I promise.

I have devoured, cherished, loved, craved, and breathed this entire series. From beginning to end, each book has been nothing but magical. All the little intricate details woven into these masterpieces blew me out of the water. This final book left me reeling in such a good way. Having an author devote so much time, energy, blood, sweat and tears into such a long series can take it's toll on them. Important pieces can be left out, storylines not tied up in a neat little bow, anything can get missed. But that is not the case with The Immortal Accords.

You. Guys. The attention to detail that Ms. Hawke had for this series is unparalleled. There were so many moving parts, so many questions throughout the series, little nuggets of information that you just know is going to be important in the end, the world building, the uniqueness, the twists and turns, all of it is just unbelievable. When I come across authors like her, I am literally in awe of the gift they were given and their courage they have to share it with the world.

Y'all. I know that 12 books in a series seems like a lot, but when it comes to this one, it really isn't. Each book features a new couple, a new piece to the puzzle, a new friendship, a new love, a new alliance. I just couldn't get enough of these books. I am SOOOO sad that they are over! This is one of those series that you just don't want to end. Every single character in every single book feel like they're my best friends, my family. This is definitely a series that I will be reading over and over and over again.

And of course I can't forget my casting. I. Am. In. Love! That is all I have to say!

What a fantastic, heart-gripping ending to an equally fantastic series!

This series has indeed come to an exhilarating end, though I truly had to endure a nerve-wracking time reading the various events in the book that all eventually led up to the immortals' victory against their oppressors. I was at the edge of my seat - figuratively speaking - for most of the book, and there was a moment that I couldn't help my eyes well up with the emotions triggered by certain events in the book. I couldn't also help but message the author then - whom I'm lucky to be acquainted with - and scold her for making me endure that painful moment in her story. She responded with assurances that my sadness will be all worth it in the end, and boy she was right!

I loved the multiple POVs in this book. It greatly enhanced the richness of the story by having the various key players in the book share their experiences with the impending battle that was soon coming upon them. We felt their fears, struggles, and despair, and at the same time their hopes, joys, and optimism for their future. In the end, the heartbreak I endured while reading through the book was blissfully overturned by the .sheer joy of seeing all the characters, their mates, and their interconnected lives achieve a gratifying happy ending.

I received an advanced review copy of this book from the author and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

📚🩷 ARC Thoughts and First Impressions 🩷📚

Get ready for a rollercoaster of immortal drama, high-stakes battles, and twists that will leave you gasping for air! 🎢✨

Key, the ultimate mastermind with the gift of foresight, has been playing the long game for centuries 🕰️. She’s shaped the future of the immortal world with her visions 🔮, but one wrong move could send everything crashing down 🔥🔥. No pressure, right? 😅

But here’s the kicker: just when everything seems to be falling into place... BOOM 💥💔. Fated mates who are meant to be together but aren’t, a loyal lieutenant stuck in an impossible spot 🫣, and an entire clan on the verge of total collapse 🧠💥. All while the clock’s ticking ⏳ and failure means... bye-bye 💀.

Think you’ve seen high stakes before? THINK AGAIN! ⚔️ This is a battle where every decision could be the difference between life and destruction 💣. The tension? Off the charts. The stakes? Immortal. Get ready to hang on tight because this is one wild ride with no brakes 🚗💨. Can Key save the day, or is it too late to stitch fate back together? 😱 You won’t know until the very end! 👀🔥

This books follows Key (an immortal with foresight) that has seen the end of all immortal beings and has been striving to keep that from happening. With help from her fellow immortals from the previous books in this series. Another important character, Jax (human military stud with empathy for the supernatural is introduced. They all battle out with intricate plans to keep their species alive against a secret organization “The Citizens” which runs deeper than Key hoped. Do they pull it off? Do they save their species by working together? You’ll have to read it to find out.

This book was the finale of this series and it didn’t disappoint. It was interesting having all the characters from books 1-11 in the same book. Luckily there is a character glossary in the beginning to keep it all straight. I loved how this author incorporated love without showing the intricate details off page and the magic system . Her books are always an emotional torture device and I’m glad I finished up the series and she ended it well. Kudos for sure!

If you like anything supernatural from Wolves, to vampires, to immortals having all sorts of nifty powers from linking to amping this is for you!

Exciting times with even more and different types of fated couples. I found myself wanting to know are they mates or why aren’t they mated?! There were a lot of surprises, a couple I couldn’t have possibly guessed. I felt like we understood Key (the foreseer) and why she did what she did although at times felt guilty. It was so complex weaving lives and magic together. It took time and skill to finish this series. It was a intense emotional roller coaster ride. Loves the epilogues and felt sad it was over.

It dragged a little at times but somehow certain parts felt rushed. I felt like they rushed through Jax’s situation (change). Jax is a sweet army captain thrown into a magical world but he takes it with stride.

We see more but a real version of bubble gum Celeste. Derikles, a strong but introverted artist (Isaiah’s second in command), was one of my favorites.

For clean readers: Only a couple curses da*n, and fade to black kissing. A couple consummations after wedding/matter ceremonies.

Spoilers: Eve and Isaak would be fun series growing up together.

I didn’t think I’d commit to finishing it in one day…but I did! I enjoyed the ending to this beautiful series and I’m gonna miss it :,) already downloaded the five bonus chapters!
(Potential spoilers below)

WOW. If I thought the other ones brought me on an emotional roller coaster, THIS one sure did! I always know there’s a happy ending but this one had me crying until literally the last couple chapters. I’m also usually careful when it comes to multiple POV jumps, but this one wasn’t too confusing and kept everything clear every time.
The only thing that takes off a half star is that I *wish* we could’ve gotten more time with the two separate couples that were brought together in this one. There was also one phrase that seemed repetitive for one thing that happened in the story. But LITERALLY shaved off half a star because that’s just a personal thing. Plot was amazing and overall ending was happy :)

Wow, the emotions I experienced throughout this journey were truly something else! I was choked up so many times, and believe it or not, I ended up in tears on a few occasions. Key's struggle... I can't even begin to describe how heavy that burden must have been for her to carry all alone for so many years. I’m so thrilled she finally found someone to stand by her side during those tough times!

I'm definitely sad to see this series come to an end, but I have to say, it was wrapped up in such an incredible way! If you haven't dived into this series yet, what are you waiting for? Grab those tissues and prepare yourself for an unforgettable ride!

I received this book as an ARC read in return for my honest review , all thoughts and opinions are my own.

This conclusion of this series is bitter sweet. Key has the site of future and she has been playing the long game of making sure everything falls into place. Butthings can easily unravel with others choices. This book kept me enraptured to the very end. Loved this world and the multiple pov that gave the full picture.
