Well I can say I had already guessed who she would choose though I was sad to know she would not get her magical "happily ever after" but life is certainly no fairytale for Syd. Gran was finding it difficult to live with Syd's decision but under the circumstances it was the right choice. Of course the honeymoon is short lived as Syd finally gets her wish to try and free Sebastian which I am very happy to read. Drama at every turn and married life will make Syd realise that it is not just her life that is at stake any more when she runs off to god knows where to thwart The Brotherhood and there is still Ameline to be dealt with.Oh my swearword, what the hell? I am gob smacked and Patti you lulled me into a false sense of security after the wedding. I must admit I did not see that one coming and seriously I would be happy to get on the bandwagon and stalk Ameline myself and rip her heart out. This instalment is heart-breaking and just maybe Quaid redeems himself a little though Syd has a long way to go before it is finally over. It will be like losing an old friend as I have become invested in this series and that is the art of being a great storyteller that the reader can empathise with Syd and feel like she is family.I am saddened to know the next book is the last one in the series though Patti has done a wonderful job tying up the loose threads and after the roller coaster ride of this one, the final book will be earth-shattering  I am sure.
