How do I love Tristan, let me count the ways? Hot half gargoyle, half nymph. This weekend I found my quiet place and devoured the book. I was wondering if I should add it to my summer read but I decided what the heck, I have waited long enough, let me not torcher myself anymore. I needed to ensure that I would be able to read it uninterrupted. I still didn’t begin finishing reading Aqeuus right away. It took a little longer than expected but Nox finally came out January of this year. I didn’t feel like finishing book 2 and being left in anxiety until book 3 was released.

I knew that the third book Nox would be out until later 2017, so I paused at 60% of the book. I jumped right into reading Aqeuus (book 2). I feel in love with Vernal (book 1) of the Royal Academy Protector series. I can't wait for Nox ! Absolutely love this series!!' Aequus was so well written you feel like you're going through every trial and emotion with each character. Be ready for a wild ride that will have you laughing so hard and then crying like a baby. From one scene to the next you are thrown so many curves you just keep thinking 'oh my goodness no' I'm still trying to form words to even come to terms with the ending. Lives are lost and one that in particular absolutely gutted me. Freya is so cruel and manipulative ! She's nothing that Tristan is remotely interested in but is being forced to serve his duty and marry her. While everyone is against the reunion for Tristan and Serena, Zander will go through anything to help them.

Zander is a godsend that keeps the mood light and hilarious! I absolutely love his character. I don't even know what to do with myself right now! The book was completely brilliant ! You have no idea of all of the plot twists! Serena knows her plan is risky and may have flaws but until her last breath she will fight for Tristan.
