Four hundred years is a long time to wait for your fated mates only to have two of them cruelly ripped away.

Suddenly finding ourselves in the hands of the nefarious Facility—run by my final mate’s father—was enough to make my claws twitch under my skin. The only reason I hadn’t reduced these humans to ribbons of severed flesh was that there was information to uncover, and a swan shifter to find. Hopefully alive.

I suppose I’ll behave. 

Even if we were to escape, we wouldn’t be safe. A mysterious force is destroying my forest and the veil between our world and the Nav is growing thin. My former mentor betrayed me, an enemy from my past is circling, and the god of the underworld is demanding that I return to his realm.

The past has returned with a vengeance, and I need all three Riders by my side in order to claim my power and fulfill my legacy—before we run out of time.

OK, look. I immediately jumped into this book after book 1. But thank goodness for the chapter titles! Specifically because they call out our heroes by name, so I didn't have to worry too long that one or both of the men who were SPIRITED AWAY AT THE END OF BOOK 1, are still at least alive if not well.

I will say, I thought it was going to take much longer to get them all back together. It wasn't anti-climactic necessarily. And I do get why we needed all of them together for the journey through Vasi's past. But it wasn't quite as compelling as the first book. Which isn't to say it wasn't good or compelling. Just that the first book was SO very good. 

The journey through Vasi's past was ROUGH! But I liked how she had her Riders with her through it. And each of them could relate to a different one of her past traumas in some way. So they could be there for her and help her through it. 

And then. Then, Ms. Rochelle. You are going to throw another cliffhanger at me?!?! And you're going to threaten Nox?! I had to take a break. The cliffhanger at book 1 made me immediately need this book. But this one?! I was just made and I needed a break. But I do need to know what happened to Nox! So I'll be getting to the last book in the series pretty soon.
