Before I share my review just wanted to share a fun fact 😎 so Book 1 of the Exiled Elementals - Exiled No More - was actually the first ever book I reviewed on my platform and here we are just shy of 3 years later and I’m about to share my thoughts on book 5! 🤩 I feel so incredibly privileged to be a part of the Exiled family and want to say a huuuuuge thank you to T L Price for having me along for all the incredible adventures and for creating such a thrilling story that I can’t wait to return to everytime 💜✨
My honest thoughts: I honestly don’t know where to start I’m just soooo excited to be back with some of my all-time fav characters…and the deadly, dangerous tasks they’re always facing!
Book 5 picks up right where book 4 left us hanging (and also me screaming ‘noooooooooo’ 🤣) throwing you straight back into the chaos and giving us reunions I both saw…and did not see coming 👀
The tension (not just the sexual 😉) is already insane and it feels like - if possible - everything is somehow even higher stakes this time around! Every chapter had me like “just one more” and I absolutely ate up everyone’s different POV!
I love that we know what’s going on at all times with Nhari while still following Tiagos efforts back in the Realm of the Exiled - it keeps everything moving and makes it impossible to stop reading - until of course it ended 😭 and now im just here like…what do I do with my life? I already need the next book immediately 👀😅🤣
I was extremely lucky to be apart of the beta read team and genuinely cried when it was in my hands.. and MY GOSH!!!! It is THE BEST BOOK OF THE SERIES SO FAR! Yes I shouted that! I was instantly teleported into the realms and I was so giddy, excited and there's so many ahhhh / screaming / loving / surprising / hot moments that my heart rate was ALL OVER THE PLACE!
I will say you WILL go on a bloody exciting adventure when you get this book in your hands!!
Also I'm still over excited about it! Still the best one yet as so much happens, some exciting developments, people great and evil.. cried so much my eyes puffed and dried out, laughed so hard my sides split, screamed more than my voice box could take. I love it so much. And there's still so much to come.. my heart and soul is tied to this series and just knowing its not over warms my soul. This is definitely a series I will over read until the pages fall out, dampen so much from my tears, that I won't need the pages to read it out aloud to my great grand children when they come over (when I have them that is 🤭🤣)
