Once again Violet Eden faces an impossible choice ... and the consequences are unimaginable.
Violet has come to terms with the fact that being part angel, part human, means her life will never be as it was.
Now Violet has something Phoenix - the exiled angel who betrayed her - will do anything for, and she has no intention of letting it fall into his hands. The only problem is that he has something she needs too.
Not afraid to raise the stakes, Phoenix seemingly holds all the power, always one step ahead. And when he puts the final pieces of the prophecy together, it doesn't take him long to realise exactly who he needs in order to open the gates of Hell.
With the help of surprising new allies, ancient prophecies are deciphered, a destination set and, after a shattering confrontation with her father, Violet leaves for the islands of Greece without knowing if she will have a home to return to...
I had been
anticipating this book ever since I read Entice
and Embrace, since I loved them both. I was so
excited to sink my teeth once again in one of Jessica Shirvington’s novels. I
couldn’t wait to find out what would happen next to Violet and Co. Once again,
the story she created captivated me from the beginning. It took me on a roller
coaster of emotions, making me glad to have been home alone while reading it.
(My reading experience included a few giggles, laughs, and screams…)
In Emblaze, we follow once again the characters we got to meet in the first
two books. Violet is still torn between the choices she has to make, and the
consequences those will have on her loved ones. She has her father to think
about, as the man is oblivious to what is happening to his daughter. She has Steph, her best friend, who has
been introduced to her world thanks to her.
Now, we can’t
forget about Lincoln, the man Violet loves, but isn’t supposed to be with. He
is totally swoon worthy, and I love that we got to understand more about his
feeling for Violet. We get a glimpse of what he is feeling, and we get to know
what he would be ready to do for her. You cannot help but like him. And then,
there’s Phoenix. He’s back and ready to do what he can to bring back Lilith. I
adore the fact that we got a glimpse of what is going on in his head, through the
one chapter from his point of view. It made me like him a little more than I
did in Entice, as we get to see a more human
side of him.
With the third
book in the Violet Eden Chapters, Jessica
Shirvington managed to keep her series addicting. Her writing keeps me hooked,
and begging for more. I cannot wait to read what will happen next to Violet. If
you enjoyed the first two books, you will love this third one.
