Publisher's summary

Sloan Jordan's days are numbered. She has 139 to be exact. In that time, there's a lot to do - a missing friend to find, a wedding to plan, and her own murder plot to overthrow.

When a lead takes the crew back to Chicago, the truth they uncover is more shocking than they ever imagined - to fight the enemies of the present, they must first face the demons from the past.

The awesome series continues!

Book 4 is just as good as the previous 3 books. Love this series. The author provides a very creative, suspenseful, intriguing story. I can't stop continuing this exciting story. The author has given us great characters and a great plot. This has great suspense, thrill and a touch of romance. There are two very strong men who are perfect in their own way. Love them both. Sometimes it is easy to pick out who you think should be together when there are two guys after the same girl. However, I could see Sloan with either of the guys. Warren and/or Nathan. The story is great too. Love the paranormal. Love to see what their gifts are and how they are going to use them. It is fun to see how Sloan with her gifts will protect those around her and grow her relationships. The narrator does a really great job with the characters and the plot.

Bringing it all Together

This third book does very well in bringing parts of the series together. I'd say this one definitely has less action and more drama and romance. The author really knows how to write a good fight scene, like at the end of the previous book. This fight scene was a little week by my definition but I also really like a lot of action and drama. But when it comes to pulling bits and pieces of details together into a much larger scheme of things, this book does very well. The author does a great job at not allowing 100% trust in characters, and at the end you really don't know who to trust or what to believe. That's the kind of mystery that I have been missing. Also the narrator of the series does a wonderful job at pulling suspense, heated arguments, and the sarcasm/jokes off. I am very thankful for this narrator because she has really done a good job at grasping the different personalities in each one of the characters. As well as creating a great picture of what relationships exist. I would say the only reason that I didn't give it five stars is just because there was a little bit too much romance and drama when it came to the story. Talk of picking out wedding dresses, relationship arguments, creating friendships, planning parties, etc. but I know that was just the author trying to cement the close circle that Sloan has around her and how important it is to her so when certain things take place, how much it affects everything. It also makes you care for them more, so when. Trust is broken, it sparks that emotion in the reader.

the series is fun and fast

this series is fun and fast with characters that are easy to like. It's surprising even though it works off of a basic formula. Totally worth the listen

Loved it!

Oh Bloodyhell!!
This book may be my favorite or of the series.
The books have been filled with action but I feel like this one just topped them all!!
Be warned this one ends in a cliffhanger as well but the good thing is the next book is out. I can’t wait to see how they resolve what will hopefully be the last battle. I also recommend listening the audiobook. The narrator is great!!
