Book Description:

Nothing burns as bright as the flames of the refiner’s fire.

Moments after hearing the Council sentence her enemy to life imprisonment for attempted murder and illegal use of magic, Darcy is whisked away by the Fates—accused of tampering with destiny. The cherished dream she shared with Mason has been called into question, placing doubt about whether they are actually true mates. To resolve it, a price must be paid—the Heart or Death—a grueling series of tests designed to reveal a person’s worth.

The stakes are high and Darcy finds herself facing the unknown in conditions that leave her more vulnerable than she’s ever been. Separated from Mason and her Pack, with Devlin as her only companion, she is pushed to her very limits. She must succeed—or lose everything.

Will she crumble under the pressure or emerge stronger for testing fate?

Review: 

This is one book I have been waiting on since I finished book 2, Forget Me Not. Belinda is not called the Queen of Cliffhangers for nothing.  It nearly drove me insane waiting for this book but finally it's live and I dove immediately into it today.  And I can say, Belinda has another winner on her hands. I had said prior to getting my little hands on this book, I would savor it and read it nice and slow. Well that was impossible to do. I devoured it and now crave more.

It picked up where we left off in the second book and what a wild rollercoaster ride this book was. Good thing I was left home alone today or I think my family would have thought I was insane talking to the screen and screaming out loud at some parts and of course a few tears shed as well.

I love these characters so much they feel like family to me, Mason, Darcy and especially Devlin (sigh I am so in love with this vampire). I was happy to get a bit of background on Devlin too in this book. But and yes there is a but we again have a monsterous cliffhanger .. okay maybe I am exaggarating a bit but still wow I so didn't expect what she gave us at all. Which is one reason I do love her books so much I can never predict what is going to happen next.

I honestly could ramble on and on , I loved this book and hope this series goes on forever , I wanna see Mason and Darcy have 20 kids... okay that's a bit much but you get the point. Now I have to suffer and wait til book 4 comes which I hope and pray it's not too long...

Maya is Taeg’s best hope for uncovering the sword. Unfortunately, she wants nothing more than to kill him. As he fights for her trust and to save his family, she is forced to face the truth that not all demons are evil. And the worst part? She might be falling in love with one, too.

It's been awhile since I have done a FF and thought this was a good question to jump back in on..

Q. What is your guilty pleasure as far as reading? Is it a genre, or is it a certain type of book? 

A. My guilty pleasure is paranormal, it's always the genre I turn to when I am in a mood and more specifically either Greek Mythology or Vampires or the combo of both in my books. 

My favorite author, or I should say Authors because I have a list a mile long in this genre. (Sherrilyn Kenyon, J.R. Ward, Alyssa Day, Gena Showalter, Lara Adrian, Larissa Ione ) I honestly could go on.. all these authors are my guilty pleasure when I need a certain comfort only these authors can provide at times.

She is not your ordinary Blood Witch, and together they can stir up power that the world has never seen.
