The darkest pleasure by gena showalter5/12/2023 ![]() ![]() Although I liked the main characters ending, I felt the author left a lot of loose ends with the story and its characters. The only thing that dissapointed me was the ending. I liked this story better than the second book, but think the first is still my favorite. I especially liked how the author created a strong, independent heroine and continued to follow Reeves's struggle with his loyalty to his friends versus his loyalty to Danika. As with the other books in this series, I liked the story and seeing how the other characters, and their relationships, turned out. And it tells the tale of Danika and Reeves, whose curse is the demon of pain. " This is the final book in the Lords of the Underworld Trilogy. I very much enjoyed this guilty pleasure read. " I was very much into this series by the time I got to this one. The mythology is very good in this series and is the main reason I am going to continue reading it. I felt so bad for Paris and wonder what's going to happen with him. I liked the relationship between Reyes and Danika, though there were some "eww" moments at time. ![]() It was just so slow moving it needed more action. ![]() " I liked this story better than the last one, it wasn't as good as I hoped.
