“There was hate once. Hate born from dangerous attraction and fate’s cruel design.
There was love once. Love destined to kill us if we didn’t surrender to our war.”
Eleanor Grace suffers an awful affliction. She’s falling for a man who doesn’t deserve her affection or her forgiveness. But there is no cure, so she does something reckless, stupid—she throws safety to the sea and leaps into danger.
Sully Sinclair suffers the same affliction. He’s falling for a goddess who will never earn his trust or his heart if he can help it. However, he wasn’t prepared for the lengths she’d go. How far she’d push to either stop such a bond or kill them both trying.
An elixir given to a monster.
A goddess running for her life.
An ending neither of them can survive.

I was afraid of her in that moment.
Afraid of what she’d do to me.
Afraid of what she’d make me become.
Afraid that there was no turning back from this…regardless if I was ready or not.
Adrenaline rushed through my bloodstream as I locked my knees and closed my eyes.
I didn’t know why I was afraid. Why standing before Eleanor with my arm outstretched made me feel defenceless, exposed, and utterly at her mercy.
Seconds ticked past, making me bristle and my stupid heart double-beat.
I needed to see. To look at her. To know what the hell she was doing.
But the softest feather touched my hand, followed by another on my forearm.
I jerked.
Shit.
Heat.
Sizzling.
Crackling.
Potent and powerful and perfect.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Third a Kiss takes this fantastically dark series into a whole new realm of possibility, not only does it's plot thicken with every page turn but it's sexual content has become so erotic it's dirtier than a stripper after a Saturday night working the pole.
Sully has become the ultimate anti-villain, when we were first introduced to him in Once a Myth you couldn't help but hate him for all that he believed in, but throughout this series we have begun to see what does actually lie beneath his guarded layers. We have learnt that behind the monster there is just a man that has been deeply hurt by others, that after losing all trust that he turned his back upon humanity and had become part of the darkness that we know him to dwell in.
While many questions were answered in this book it also throws up many new ones that left us with more confusion and a driving need for them to be answered. With the relationship between Eleanor and Sully moving into a completely new phase and becoming more complex at every turn this story is becoming an heated melting pot that's almost ready to explode. While euphoria is to be found in the setting of a island paradise we were left at the end with such a cliffhanger that danger is lurking there for all that dwell upon it's beautiful shores!
This is a superbly written addition to this dark and delicious series, it left me craving so much more of Sully and Eleanor living in his black and white vision of the world.
