I really wanted to like this series. I was sure there would be a clever loophole to break the curse and I would eventually like the main love interest (ok he kinda got me in this book). I was enjoying this one more than the previous two because we got multiple POVs and understood the main characters’ motives more. Yes, I was annoyed that several important characters from the last two were barely mentioned, but I was willing to look past it for a bit, hoping they would come back later. They didn’t. (One did briefly but I’m still miffed). This book did not feel like an ending. It was a romance first and foremost, neglecting the plot.and in the end Evangeline breaks jacks’s curse with her sheer will/love? I don’t get it. I don’t understand how it can be true love’s magical kiss while jacks is still a fate and no one thought the curse could be broken at all.
I’m assuming the stories aren’t wrapped up because, as the epilogue says, there are more stories to be told in the Magnificent North. I just wish this story felt complete.
