Born and raised in Hawaii, Amy made a perilous journey across the ocean with six cats to settle in the beautiful state of Oregon which reminds her a lot of Hawaii but without the cockroaches or evil sand. When she isn't trying to type fast enough to get down everything the voices in her head are saying while her kitties try to sabotage her with cuteness, she enjoys painting on canvases, walls, and anything else that will sit still long enough for the paint to dry. She prefers antiques to modern furniture, tea to coffee, night to day, and Tom Hardy to Tom Hiddleston. No; Tom Hiddleston to Tom Hardy. No, wait... Tom Hardy and Tom Hiddleston to Tom Cruise. Yes, that's it.

still as enjoyable as always, i just got a bit annoyed at Malik cuz of his mixed feelings. At the end i just wondered what happend with the girl Malik said he had met and was gonna be with instead of Amara? Like he said something like i can´t be with ya, she aint you but i have found someone else now. I am just gonna use you when i need you ( it felt basically like that)
It felt like everything was all good when he decided to stay with Amara and the gang so i just found it a bit weird that we didn´t get any more info about the situation with the girl and the marriage
I liked the ending when they all togetheeer

Whenever I read a book from Amy Sumida, it will always be because of the untimely humor, fabulous movie/tv show references and uber amazing heroines. This series is not an exception. However, I have to take off a star due to my deep-seated frustrations with Malik. It was one thing to leave someone you supposed to be so in love with the first time there's an issue that arises...and another thing to push and pull her throughout the whole thing. I stand behind that unless he proves himself in the upcoming next books. Aside from that, everything and everyone else is amazing.

wow
Another crazy and intense story! I’m so thankful the president was safe but sad about his girl although I will admit she seemed off to me. There were several hints in this story about the angels and what’s happening but now that Malik is back they need to deal with hell too so what’s next?

Holy hotness
I really am enjoying the progression of this series. I’m glad that she listens and that her panic does not override her common sense. I can’t wait to find out what happens next.

Oooh the Drama
This is the best book in the series thus far. Amy has done it again with spectra and her band of misfit men and superhero sidekicks. The unresolved romance issues get fixed and I swear I literally swooned. The steam gets turned up a few notches as well! Mara and her men are fighting several bad guys in this book but it was so well written that it never gets confusing or hard to keep up with. You get more Landry in this book too and his father daughter relationship moments made me a pile of mush. So sweet. I have a love hate relationship with how Amy ends her books... on the one hand the cliffhangers almost kill me but on the other hand they keep me so excited for the next. Its a good thing she writes fast or I'd be a mess.

I like it
This series has all the hallmarks off a long running saga, with each book coming to its own episodic Ending while the metaplot brews beyond it. We’ve got danger, power, mystery and plenty of love - not to mention heat.
In this installment:
Pros
- finally some resolution on long running love questions, though there are still some issues.... obviously.
- The team, not just the harem, are working very well together.
- We get to see President Colton again!!
Cons:
- There are still questions with Milak.

Five Stars.
I can’t say enough about this author. Her books are a favorite of mine. Every time I read a new series, it’s my favorite because I’m reading it at that moment. If you like a slow burn RH with an actual story you can
get lost in, start here with this author. With Spectra. With her Godhunter series. With Twilight Court.
