I'm a huge fan of J.A. Howell's, and this book was a fantastic reminder of why I love the Possess Saga so much. I got to meet up with some of my favorite characters again and it thrilled me to no end.This book is so much darker than the other books in this series. With an sadistic demon on the loose I knew I was in for one exciting rollercoaster ride, and I was hooked from page one. With the arrival of baby Emma I was hoping this wonderful family would have a bit of normal for a little while, but the action started right off the bat and never let up. My heart went out to Nolan. That poor man put up with so much in this book and he was still the sexy, loving man I've enjoyed getting to know throughout this series. He was the perfect husband and perfect father. His moments with Emma were so moving and precious, and they made my heart melt.Harley also had so much to deal with in this book. Not only was she possessed by evil, which she tried so hard to protect her family from, but then she had to face the truth and consequences of her actions. She may not have been the one behind the brutality, but it was still blood on her hands.I enjoyed the dual POV throughout this story, and it was great getting to know Fate a little better. He too was pushed to the brink of madness and his story about how this entire mess came to be sent another jolt through my heart.This story was filled with anguish and pain. It ripped at my heart and soul, and I just wanted the nightmare to end for everyone involved. Howell tested her characters to the max while leaving me emotional spent.This book was a stunning, imaginative paranormal read about true love, forgiveness and courage. Spectacular!
