Haven still blames Ever for the death of her boyfriend Roman, no matter how hard Ever’s tried to convince her it was an accident. Now she’s determined to take Ever down…and destroy Damen and Jude along the way. Her first step is to tear Ever and Damen apart—and she has just the ammunition to do it.
Hidden in one of Ever’s past lives is a terrible secret about Damen—a secret that illuminates new facts about her relationship with Jude, but that’s so dark and brutal it might be enough to drive her and Damen apart once and for all. As Ever faces her greatest fears about the guy she wants to spend eternity with, she’s thrust into a deadly clash with Haven that could destroy them all.
Now it’ll take everything she’s got—and bring out powers she never knew she had—to face down her most formidable enemy. But in order to win, she must first ask herself: is her own survival worth dooming Haven to an eternity of darkness in the Shadowland? And will learning the truth about Damen’s past hold the key to their future?”
Best friends are your worst enemies. Why? Because they know you. They know your secrets, your fears, everything. And when things go bad and they turn your back on you, everything that they know is spilled. And Ever secrets are about to be spoken.
Ever former BFF is now her enemy. Ever tries to reconcile, but there is no turning Haven. Haven is determined to kill Ever in order to get revenge on Roman and what Ever has done to Haven. But Haven is not playing a easy game. Haven is slowly using Ever, using everything and anything against her.
And boy does she play dirty. Not only are secrets spilled but Haven uses Ever’s fear in Damen which brings up the past with a whole lot of skeletons. I can’t help but blame Damen for this. He should of known sooner or later that all of that will spill. Had he be honest all of this could have been avoided. But with this new revelation it puts Ever is a position in which she must pick. Jude or Damen?
I really enjoyed reading this book. It is always a pleasure to read Ever’s adventures. My heart simply broke for her in this book. She was put on the spot many times and had lots to deal with. Her family life was also a major struggle. It seemed like Ever was losing everything and didn’t have anything or anyone to lean on.
I enjoyed reading this book. There was so much in it, it was hard to put down. The only thing I felt was off was it seem like Ever was fighting the same things over again. I was expecting something a little different.
Nonetheless, the book was good. I look forward to reading the final book and I am crossing my fingers for Damen and Ever.
I give it 4 BITES!
Happy Reading!
Ahh! l so want to read this, l brought the e book but just have zero time with my pile of books to read!
I found some parts of previous books in this series a bit ‘samey’ and slow paced but the ending of each book also made me desperate to read the next book.
Thanks for the review!
I’ve yet to start this series – can you believe it? I enjoyed your review for this book though, and I think maybe I’ll start it now. Great review! 🙂
I haven’t read this series yet either, but I keep seeing it everywhere with positive reviews so I think it needs to go on the list! They certainly have interesting names, I love the name Haven:) Nice review Savy!
Thanks for the review! I stopped reading in shadowland and been on the fence about getting the next books LOL
I bought this book the day it came out and still haven’t read it yet. I feel the way you do, Ever keeps fighting the same things over and over again which is what has made me a bit hesitant. However, I have been rooting for Ever and Damen from the very beginning and will continue because honestly I do like the series. I just wish it would come to an end so I can finally know the outcome.
