THE NEXT GUILD HUNTER BOOK FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR NALINI SINGH

Aodhan and Illium. Adi and Blue. Sparkle and Bluebell. Friends become lovers, their future a wild unknown.

Finally reunited in New York, they must now learn to navigate the monumental shift in their relationship. But for these two members of Archangel Raphael's legendary Seven, there is no time to rest. As they investigate a case for the Tower that echoes the darkness from Aodhan's past, they will be forced to confront not only the scars that mark them both, but the promise of a vast power that flickers in Illium.

The threat of ascension has haunted and troubled Aodhan's Blue for too long, the forces of change immutable and without mercy...and uncaring of Illium's fierce wish to remain part of the Seven. Change is a constant in an immortal's life, and this new horizon will bring with it both terrible heartbreak and a joy extraordinary enough to reverberate through time...

This book completely captivated me. We revisited lots of old friends and caught up with them blue and sparkle story was truly heartwarming. I miss them already.

Best in the series

The first few sentences will break your heart, the last few will fill it with joy. Ady and blue’s love story through time is so beautiful but we also face the beginning of the end of the series which is truly heart wrenching, this should be a forever series that never ends but I am curious as to what Nalini will come up with next.

Breathtaking and heartbreaking ♥️

"While I greatly appreciated the deep bond of friendship and eagerly anticipated the introduction of both Illium and Aodhan’s mates, along with their future offspring, I felt really deprived of the aforementioned. It was however enjoyable to hear updates on other characters. However, I was disappointed not to learn whether Jesamy has regained full use of her wings, the fate of Michaela and her child, or what became of Astaad—among others."

Yes, I cried.

I do look forward to the release of the books in the series, but overtime the story plot has got from bad to worse. This book is the worst for me of all. Dare to say, the series may have come to an end.

This is a review which hurts me to write. The Guild hunter Series and when it became more the Archangels series had always been an autobuy for me buying both ebook and audiobook, this book I won't be buying in ebook form.
Let me firstly say I read for the BIG story with the romance aspect not being important to me.
I can't exactly say why I disliked this book but it didn't hold my interest as the others have. Ilium and Aodham, their 2nd book should have been spellbinding instead it was a trite love story. There was no 'big bad', no heart stopping moments, I was able to walk away leaving the story playing come back 10, 29, 30 minutes later and didn't have to rewind to find out some plot point I'd missed. Apologies to Justine Ayre, I sped up the narration to get through the book otherwise I'd have had to list it as DNF. Take out all the little supporting characters side stories and you're left with a formulaic Mill & Boon/Harlequin romance short novel. I found some of the side stories more interesting and if this book had been split into the relevant stories (Andi, Sarah, the murders Sparkle and Bluebell investigate etc) and sold as an anthology of short stories from the Guild Hunters world I'd have said I enjoyed it but for it to be a major book in the series I feel it lets the series down badly. With the time jump and our knowledge of what happens to supporting characters I don't see anyway back, the series is finished.

I could continue to write and vent my frustrations with this book but I'd need to include spoilers and I doubt I'll remember enough of the story to come back in a year and update this review when more people will have read it.
I recently heard a TV show described as "jumped the shark". This is the book in which the Guild Hunter series jumped the shark.
