Title: This Cursed Light

Series: The Last Finestra #2

Author: Emily Thiede

When the gods make the rules, the players must choose: Sacrifice their love to save the world, or choose love and let it burn?

Six months after saving their island from destruction and almost losing Dante, Alessa is ready to live happily ever after with her former bodyguard. But Dante can’t rest, haunted by a conviction that the gods aren’t finished with them yet. And without his powers, the next kiss from Alessa could kill him.

Desperate for answers, Dante enlists Alessa and their friends to find the exiled ghiotte in hopes of restoring his powers and combining forces with them to create the only army powerful enough to save them all. But Alessa is hiding a deadly consequence of their last fight–a growing darkness that’s consuming her mind–and their destination holds more dangers than anyone bargained for. In the mysterious city of the banished, Dante will uncover secrets, lies, and ghosts from his past that force him to ask himself: Which side is he on?

When the gods reveal their final test, Dante and Alessa will be the world’s last defense. But if they are the keys to saving the world, will their love be the price of victory?

‘What would you sacrifice for love?’

I absolutely loved This Vicious Grace so grabbed This Cursed Light with grabby hands! If you haven’t read it, you need to!

We’re back with Alessa, Dante and the rest of the gang off on an adventure to find the ghiotte, yo get Dante back his powers and keep the Gods at bay.

Dante and Alessa are so cute together but they have their trials and tribulations. This book is filled with secrets and I love that Dante found out more about his roots.

What I absolutely loved though were the side characters and I would love to see more from them!
