Goodreads Synopsis:

Katy knows the world changed the night the Luxen came.

She can’t believe Daemon welcomed his race or stood by as his kind threatened to obliterate every last human and hybrid on Earth. But the lines between good and bad have blurred, and love has become an emotion that could destroy her—could destroy them all.

Daemon will do anything to save those he loves, even if it means betrayal.

They must team with an unlikely enemy if there is any chance of surviving the invasion. But when it quickly becomes impossible to tell friend from foe, and the world is crumbling around them, they may lose everything— even what they cherish most—to ensure the survival of their friends…and mankind.

War has come to Earth. And no matter the outcome, the future will never be the same for those left standing.
My review: I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars
What a bittersweet book!

Let’s take a moment so I can find right words to explain everything I felt reading the final book in the Lux series.

I still continue to enjoy JLA’s writing and plot line! There was so much going on throughout this book, but each element for perfectly well together (just like Daemon and Katy).  I noticed more so in this book, but the words that JLA uses in order to describe the characters emotions is unbelievable.

There were moments where I felt like I had to hold my breath (cliche line anyone?) and other moments where I felt as though things would finally be looking up for the characters that we have grown to love reading about since the first novel. I liked how this book brought all elements of the aliens together: the Luxen (good/bad), the Origins (good/bad), the hybrids, and the Arum. It really ties everything from the whole series together.

This novel definitely tested the limits in Daemon and Katy’s relationship. You honestly had no idea what would happen to them (not cool Ms. Armentrout, not cool).

I liked the element of surprise that JLA wrote throughout this book especially regarding Katy and her relationships with everyone she knew.

I really enjoyed reading this book, even though it was filled with soooo many heartbreaking and bittersweet moments.

I would definitely recommend this book. And if you haven’t started the series… Well I don’t know why your wasting time, go read it!!!
