Our thoughts...
We
continue with the eighth installment of the Fever series. Mac is still
invisible, Daegus is still alive, Christian has recovered, and Jada is still
Jada, for a bit. There was a lot of jumping around in character POV’s in this
one, more so then the others. I didn’t feel a lot got resolved in terms of the
previous installment Burned. It was more of another setup to the story, as we
still have two more novels in the works before our Fever world comes to an end.
I don’t know about you, but I literally could read the characters in the Fever
story for the rest of my life. It’s one of those series that takes you from
point A to Z and then can turn right back around again and start a whole other
segment.
Mac’s
developments are slow building. She still has the book, however, it has been
quiet since she went invisible. Mac becomes injured, and she thinks she
requires more Unseelie flesh, so she eats it, and she becomes visible again.
She is still struggling to be in control of herself, and the book. On a side note she is also
trying to mend her relationship with Jada/Dani. I really liked the process of
the two of them coming together in the end. It was a huge relief for me that
there friendship mended. They love each other so much.
Barron’s
is (the love of every girls’ fantasy). We get more emotion out of him in this
book then we ever have before. And the only emotion he has is for his pink Barbie
girl Mac. There is no way he would ever turn his back on her. Ever. “Boundaries
were necessary for a successful relationship. Most relationships aborted in the
boundary-defining stage. Not because people demanded what they needed. But
because they didn’t, then got resentful about it.” –Mac These
two are so passionate it’s pretty explosive as always.
Jada/Dani
is struggling to fit in once again. We get to see into her thoughts, and the
struggles she is dealing with being lost in the silvers for five years. I felt
so sad reading her parts of the book. She really has endured so much in her
lifetime. The most important person in her life is Ryodan. Yes he has a lot on
his plate trying to keep one step ahead of everyone. There are things Ryodan is
doing, and showing us that is not his normal. We get to see just how deep he will go with
Jada. She wanted what Mac and Barron’s have so badly in her younger self, she might
very well get more where Ryo is involved. He loves her deeply. He even tells
her at one point. He’s trying to except she is no longer the girl he saw
before, and to do that he has to open himself up to her completely. He has to
get her to trust him, and for Ryo that is a huge undertaking. Their relationship
will be explosive when it comes to a head. And I am ready for that ride. God am
I ready.
“No need to go
hunting dragons when the one right next to you keeps yanking your chain. And
you had so very many chains to yank back then.” – Ryo to Jada
Christian
is still a good guy, well as good as one can get being an Unseelie prince. He
learns a few things and makes a vow with three very important people in return
for knowledge of something he wants desperately. He also helps when needed. Not
much else about him in the book though. He is more of a sideline character at
this point. I believe he will be needed more frequently in the future, however.
Lor is
absolutely the funniest of the nine or should I say ten *ahem*. He is still
battling it out with Jo where it’s needed. I found his chapter to be exactly
what I needed at the time. A huge laugh. I love him, and can’t wait to see his
future.
In all
this book was A+ as always Moning seems to keep us addicted to the Fever world,
and that’s why we worship the ground she walks on.
5 I will always love you stars.
