Summary
 Adrift in a sky shadowed by war, We seek, we ache, Searching for the woman who fled us. We shattered her heart, but she unfurled her feathers, Our sweetheart, our little dove, Escaping our talons on pure white wings. One of us soars over battlements, Haunted by past mistakes, Vowing never to repeat them. The other storms through walls of stone and hatred, Eager to destroy the shackles of his past, Determined to shackle her to him instead. Forever. Loyalties are torn. Friendships are tested. Among the chaos, one claim stands irrefutably: We will get her back. She will be ours. Come home to us, white Raven.

After finishing Feather so Vicious, I wasn't sure if I needed to read this one. Luckily for me, a friend of mine encouraged me to finished the series and boy, oh boy was it worth it!

Although the overall story had predictability, the emotional connection developed to the characters left my teary eyed more than once!

Again, if you have sensitivity to Sexual Violence, maybe give this series a miss.

Definitely worth the read!

I loved that it wasn’t all pretty and fairy tail like . That the characters had dark sad paths that weren’t flimsy and had weight to them .

It was dark in all the right ways .

i'm very new to dark fantacy romance and this duology has ruined me in the most glorious way. it isn't for the faint or heart, and based on alot of reviews elsewhere I was honestly scared to read it but I'm so glad I did. I am obsessed with these books and fear that I'll never find another to rival it. this duology gave me everything I didn't know I needed and now I crave all of it!

I was scared to read this duology, and now I fear I'll never find one as good!

Heartbreaking in parts but overall amazing journey and story. Performance wise i enjoyed the female narrator but not so much the two male narrators.

Dark and Intense story
