REVIEW: The Finish Line by Kate Stewart

 


🦅🦅 NOW AVAILABLE 🦅🦅




OUR REVIEW:


While I feel it probably goes without saying, I feel the need to preface this review with the understanding that this is the third book in a series, and you must read the first two books first because this review most likely will spoiling you for the previous books.



Honestly, The Finish Line was an unexpected surprise. I thought the second book ended in an open ended way that left me longing for more but accepting of where the characters were in their journey. When I saw that this was a continuation of the story of these characters, I was curious and cautiously optimistic. 



Continuing with that honest reflection, since it's been a while since I've read the original duet, when I started reading The Finish Line I felt rusty on what I thought were pertinent details so I reread sections of Exodus to refresh my memory and I'm glad I did. It helped reconnect me to the emotional journey of these characters and kept me focused on what was happening on the page rather than trying to remember what I forgot (so if you're like me and a little rusty on things, I definitely recommend skimming the previous book to reconnect some dots). Once I was fully back into the narrative of The Finish Line I was emotionally sucked in, so much so that I had to put it down at times because it just hurt sometimes. This story is the story of Tobias, really, and it pieces together a lot of the backstory of the Ravenhood. But even though it's a story of his past, it's also very much a story of Tobias and Cecelia and their present. The story weaves through history as it pushes us forward into the future and features as much history as it does present day twists and turns. I was captivated and entertained and felt a full range of emotions. And while I was uncertain when I first started reading, about what I was getting into, I can say without any hesitation that this was a book that this series needed. It filled in gaps and gave everything more depth and range--it was a novel that I never would've thought I needed and yet I did and I'm so glad Kate Steward decided to write it. 


Grab this once you've read the first two books...but also grab some tissues because you're gonna need them.

The Finish Line Blurb 

Secrets and Lies...

 

I’ve lived the entirety of my life wrapped up in subterfuge for one purpose—revenge.

 

Through the years, I lived more as an enigma than a man.

 

For so long, I denied I had a beating heart of my own. 

 

Until her. Until she unearthed the starving vessel inside, forced me to acknowledge it, forced me to understand that I’m capable of bleeding the same as any other.

 

For that, we paid. We're still paying.

 

Yet, she demands it still, the useless heart of the ruthless thief and shameless villain she fell for. My fear is, I’m no longer that man.

 

With the lies I’ve told, the life I’ve led, my mistakes are beginning to catch up with me, day by day, one by one. 

 

This is my last chance, and I have no intention of losing her again, but as the deception of my past starts to unravel and close in, shedding my humanity may be the only thing that can save us both. 

 

Maybe it’s already too late.
