I've definitely struggled with this series more than her other series (see my reviews of Reliquary and Splinter), but I can confidently say that this is probably the best book of the series. None of her books have gotten below three stars. This is the fourteenth book I've read by her (out of fourteen, if I've counted correctly). Most of you who follow my blog already know much I adore Sarah Fine's books. Now, with the man who refuses to be controlled under the command of a ruthless captor, Mattie must decide how far she’s willing to go to rescue him-assuming there’s anything left to save. But when an international black-market magic exchange goes awry, Asa falls into the hands of his enemies. And although she’s determined to keep things professional, her partner, Asa Ward, is a temptation she finds increasingly hard to resist.Įven as their relationship reaches a tipping point, Mattie is wary Asa already told her he hates cages-literal or otherwise.

But as an unusually strong reliquary-able to carry vast quantities of magic in her body, undetected-she’s been pulled into an underworld of organized crime and addictive enchantments. Until recently, she didn’t even know such a business existed. Mattie Carver never thought she’d give up her small-town life to become one half of the best magic-smuggling duo in the business. ***Warning: this is an adult book, and for the eyes of mature readers*** *** Review posted on The Eater of Books! blog*** Crippling ending, but the book in general is REALLY good.
