***NOTE: This review may contain spoilers for the first two books in the series.***Time Lock is the exciting conclusion to the Red Moon Trilogy! This book gives us all the answers we've been waiting for and a satisfying ending for the characters we've come to love!The negatives:Convenient romances.The romance between Tony and Hannah still felt just a bit too much like a convenient plot device in this book. And Kaz's storyline also takes a convenient turn. Luckily the plot didn't center on either of these two elements, so it didn't bother me much.What I LOVED:Answers.I loved that, right away, as soon as this book started, we began getting answers to the mysteries that had been set up in the series. Or at least major clues (there were still some surprises at the end of the book). At the very beginning of this final book, Rayen started to get some of her memories back and we were able to learn more about her family and where she came from. We also learned more specifics about the prophecy, which allowed me to make some guesses about how it would all play out (some things I was right about and some things I wasn't!).The war.The conflict between the TecKnati and the MystiKs headed toward an all-out war in this book! We really got to see why and how SEOH planned to rid himself of the MystiKs and his plan was put in full force. There were times when I wasn't exactly sure how the MystiKs were going to manage to find their way out of SEOH's traps (or his nasty son's). This book was full of action, just like the others in the series - the conflict was strong and the stakes were high!Callan & Rayen and Jaxxson & Gabby.While there were definitely still some struggles for my favorite couples (especially Callan and Rayen), I finally got to see them find a bit of happiness as well! The central romances in the book were sweet and romantic. And I loved that Caida forged a true connection between our characters without having them have sex (which kept the whole series appropriate for younger YA).The ending.I loved how the prophecy was finally fulfilled. As I mentioned, there were some elements of the prophecy that I pretty much figured out and some that surprised me. There was also a (very pleasant) surprise at the end of the book that I loved!Time Lock was a fantastic ending to the series! I did not want to put it down! I give this book 4.5/5 stars.***Disclosure: This book was provided to me by the author in exchange for an honest review. No other compensation was given. All opinions are my own***
