What a way to finish a series! This last book in the Daedalus Brothers, Inc. series certainly lived up to the level of action, suspense, and romance in prior books.

It ties all the storylines together in one nice not-so-tidy package that is all so satisfying, nonetheless. There is plenty to chew on here, so don't expect an anticlimactic ending. It's a rollercoaster all the way.

After all we’ve been through together, I can’t believe it’s time to say goodbye to Ryll and her unforgettable crew. No more Axel, Wilder, Stone, Harper, Ren, Sky, Elizabeth, Penelope, Mei, or Constantin (yes, our new honorary Daedalus!). Parting is bittersweet, but wow, what a sendoff.
As their enemies close in, the stakes are higher than ever. But let’s lead with the moment we’ve all been waiting for. Our broody, bossy Stone has finally cracked and joined the steamy fun! So, with all her “boys” by her side (and in her bed), Ryll can focus on taking down her enemies with a bold and daring plan. But in true Daedalus fashion, victory isn’t easily earned. For every step forward, there’s a maddening step back. With Blaine and Luther joining forces and calling in favors from those still willing to help, the number of enemies is growing and they’re not playing fair, throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Ryll and her team. The pages literally flow with blood as the Daedalus crew fight through every battle. Yet, every time it seems Blaine and Luther’s days are numbered, they slip away to cause ever more mischief. The tension was palpable, the action relentless, and the twists- completely bonkers in the best way. I loved the tie-in to Casey’s Nympho series, with Slater playing a key role in Ryll’s master plan. In fact, all the side characters had their role to play. I could gush about them for hours, though I have to admit Sky still grated on my nerves (even if I get where she’s coming from). As for Axel, Wilder, and Stone? They’ve never been sexier, though I did miss a bit of Stone’s trademark scowls and broodiness. That said, this final installment wasn’t without its WTF moments starting with Ryll’s dramatic rescue at the beginning, which couldn’t have been more unbelievable if it tried. And what was this Brotherhood of Archimedes, with their almost-supernatural abilities. It felt like Casey was cranking the volume up to 11 and wanted to squeeze every last idea she had for the series into this final book. Was it a bit much at times? Sure. Did I care? Not really. Despite the eye-rolling, head-scratching moments, Casey brought it all home beautifully. Ryll stepped into her rightful place, and Havensea and Daedalus Inc are finally poised for a brighter future. Long live the queen!

This book is the final instalment of the Daedalus brothers and Amaryllis series and did not disappoint.

We have the main character, Amaryllis, who is ready to take back control of her life after all she has gone through in the other four books. She wants to act instead of reacting all the time. Blaine, her wicked, psycho step-controlling stepmother needs to be taken out of the picture as well as Luther the Daedalus brother's father. We have Dante, Blaine's son, who is just as mad, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree there! Needs to be gone as well to give Harper, their sister peace of mind.

Throughout the book I love Ryll's sense of humour, and how her brain goes on a wander while trying to do things. How fiercely protective of her 'daughter' Sky, and the rest of the Daedalus family. She changes from the quintessential party girl at the very start of this journey, who was in her selfish bubble, to this person who puts other needs in front of her own, making sure they are all taken care of. While trying to bring down Blaine and Luther, she has a thought that she shares with the family. Stone thinks it's a bad idea and puts an even bigger target on her back, whereas Wilder and Axel think it has some merit and would be better than the system that is in place now.

Throughout the book, you see all of the 'family' interactions with one another. What once started with the brothers wanting a way to get back at the Covington's has now brought the family and extended family closer and in the middle of it all is Ryll.

This is a series I can read repeatedly and not tire of it. A must-read.

Hot dang, the spicy scenes in this book phew! This girl is fanning herself. The heat level is off the charts, and let me tell you, it’s written in a way that keeps you coming back for more.

After the last book ended on that jaw-dropping cliffhanger, this installment wastes no time diving straight into the action. It’s a nonstop thrill ride from beginning to end, keeping you on the edge of your seat the whole way through.

Let’s talk about the characters Stone finally gets his act together, and hallelujah, he’s learning to share. YES, you heard that right, he’s given in! Axel finds his heart, showing a side we’ve all been dying to see, and Wilder? Well, he’s still the wild card we can’t get enough of.

Angel’s inner dialogue continues to be an absolute highlight. Her thoughts are hilarious, relatable, and bring a refreshing lightness amidst all the drama. And then there’s Sky what an incredible addition to Angel’s ever-growing found family. Despite only a few years between them, Sky looks up to Angel as a mother figure, and Angel steps into that role beautifully. Their bond is heartwarming and adds so much depth to the story.

As for the twists and turns? All those lingering questions from the previous book get answered, and oh boy, are they satisfying. The story masterfully ties everything together, leaving you with a strong sense of closure while still wanting more from this found-family dynamic.

This book delivers everything: romance, action, humor, and heart. If you loved the previous installment, this one will blow you away. Highly recommend!

This is book 5 in the Daedalus Brothers Inc series. For me, this book and the fist book were the best books in the series. This book is the culmination of everything they've been working for. There have been battles before but not like this. There is a final showdown to see who wins, who loses, and who who will rule Havensea. It's like the ultimate battle royale. If you've read any of the other books from Casey Cane then you will see some familiar faces from the Nypho series. If not, it won't impact either storyline greatly. I read the complete Nypho series as well as this series.

I'm glad this series concluded. Man, did these characters come a long way from the beginning. I see Amaryllis changed the most, obviously. Ryll found herself broken, transformed, and finally getting that threesome she was looking for! "The living is for the now." Ryll had a lot of shocks in this book. I think Ryll was way more emotional than we've ever seen her. Along the way Ryll collects a whole complete family, out of nothing. "Here, I’ve found my purpose. My center. I love this life." Before Ryll was just existing a rich girl life with absolutely no purpose. Imagine if Ryll was never kidnapped? Definitely the ending fit for this series.

Firstly, the cover is easily Casey’s best one yet. It encapsulates who I imagine Ryll to be.

After the cliffhanger in Lost Angel I couldn’t figure out how Casey Cane was going to resolve it. Well, he managed, in quite a spectacular fashion. From the first chapter on, the Daedalus family were fighting for their lives, their futures and a little peace of mind. Luckily when you have oodles of money and an arms company at your disposal, things get a little easier.
Even the great Daedalus men need help every now and then. Enter Slater. I was hoping we’d get to see him again in this series. His and Ryll’s banter was pretty funny.
This has some dark moments, like really dark, but Cane does it with a flair that makes it more humorous, so more palatable for me. Like Dante and Matilda, his talking head.

This is a series that deserves way more hype. It’s action packed, so entertaining, spicy af and has some real heart behind all the crazy. It is essentially about family and doing whatever it takes to protect it.

I read an arc through Booksirens and this is my honest review

Casey Cane writes as hard as her characters live! I’m sad that this is the last book of the series, but I’m beyond happy that the wild ride that started in the first book escalated with every encounter! Ryll is the center of the Daedalus family through sheer grit, sass, determination, and a capacity for love that soothes her men! Stone, Wilder, and Axel bit off way more than they expected or imagined and in the process found their Angel. I craved the emotional connection, the fire of their intense sexual scenes, and the sense of family that grew in each book!

Casey’s details bring the characters to life: I could envision Ryll and her family as they planned, fought, and loved! Their pain, their losses, and their greatest joys made me cry, scream, or laugh at their antics! The tenacity and courage they displayed was astounding and I want more stories about their allies and other family members! Havensea is full of potential!!!

I devoured this book!! Casey does it again with this book. He kept me on the edge of my seat, laughing, a few tears, and a whole lot of intense reading!!

This book picks up right before the ending of the last book from MMC POV taking you through the epic cliffhanger from Lost Angel book 4. And from that conclusion on, it was a nonstop entertaining read. All the characters I've grown to loathe and those I love from the Nympho series and the Daedalus Brother's Series come together to bring down their enemies.

Questions are answered and happy endings are afoot but let's not forget about the spice!!! 5/5 🔥🔥 Puppy pads required!!

If you haven't read anything from this author, I suggest trying out the first book in this series or if Biker vibes are more your thing check out his Nympho series! Both are phenomenal!! Must read/Own!!!

So I'll be the first to admit that I didn't really like Ryll the first couple books. But as the series continues and she matures she really grows on you. I love how she took on Sky and the whole dynamic between the two of them. I absolutely love when Stone becomes the Jester. Constantin's change warms my heart. I was happy when Harper got was Rev. Axel, Wilder and Stone melt my clothes off. But one of my favorite quotes in the book is " he could make you scream with a strand of overcooked spaghetti." At some point the book's kind of went off the rails but I was here for it. I absolutely love Sky's birthday party. But I don't understand why she still called The Brothers uncle when it turns out that she's there sister.

A lovely ending to a never ending series. Things are going so well I’m with Axel there needs to be some action. I love the relationship Sky and Ryll have developed. For someone who had no parental love or example Ryll is doing a surprisingly good job at parenting Sky. But honestly all she needs is to shower Sky with love and some boundaries. I hate to think what would have happened if Blaine or Dante had gotten their hands on her. With the proclivities her family has its good she has Durand Munitions. In her holdings.

This is Book 5 of the Daedalus Brothers, Inc. series by Casey Cane. This is the final book in the series. All the loose ends get tied up in this book. Ryll adds more people to her Daedalus family and takes out any enemies along the way. Her relationships with "her boys" is awesome, loaded with chemistry and love. Each guy has his own special relationship with Ryll but together they are something special. There are loads of twists and turns involved in getting rid of their enemies. I highly recommend this book to all dark romance readers.

This is book 5 and usually, by this time I've lost all interest in a series....but not this series! This book picks up right before the ending of the last book and Amaryllis (Ryll) Durand Daedalous, her men, and their "family" continue to persevere through all the challenges thrown at them. Great characters, well-paced storyline, sizzle, steam, action, drama, and so many twists and turns. Great Series and worthy of the 5 stars.

Another action packed story. As we follow their family from earlier stories. Sky and Ryll are taken by Luther and Blaine. Axel, Stone, Harper and the others head to Haversea to save them. A helicopter goes wrong, a wild save after Ryll is pushed from a the top of a building, and to the escape for them all. Lots of steam, surprises that take place for Ryll and the boys. Would recommend .

We're back in the Daedalus Brothers world in Queen Angel. It picks up where Consumed Angel leaves off and is every bit as intense, dramatic, dark and exciting as it's predecessors. Amaryllis and her men come put guns blazing in this one and stepmama and daddy won't know what hit them. What a way to settle things down in Havensea!

As with the previous books in this series, this was a well written gripping story. I have enjoyed the way the characters have developed throughout the series . Definitely a series worth reading but I think best enjoyment would mean reading the series which started with Phoenix and Whisper.

The final book in the Daedalus Brothers, Inc. We start off right where the previous book ended and it is full of action in the first chapter.

This book brings their entire family and found family together for the final revenge on her stepmother and the brothers father. While Amaryllis is not my type of FMC I really liked seeing her grow as a character during the series to where she is able to handle being Queen. I like that we get conclusion for everything that was left open including all the side characters and their love interest as well. While I did enjoy the book I felt like some places were a little to slow for me.
