Mystery!
Things keep speeding along, dragging the crew through time and events to bring them to a fiery final cliffhanger.... and it’s just book 3!

Obsession is the 3rd book in the Sever the Crown series and it’s a wild ride! Wren’s third mate Marlowe doesn’t believe in her and basically refuses to be her mate at the beginning. Wren faces much hardship because Ashe is missing and she and her gang struggle to stay out of her evil aunt’s clutches. Each book in the series just keeps getting better! I really like learning more about Wren and seeing her relationships with her mates grow!
I received an ARC from the authors and I’m voluntarily leaving an honest review.

This series just keeps getting better and better as they keep going on. I still just wish they were longer to give me more in the story. I love this series so much!!

Be prepared to hang onto the edges of your seat with Mysti Parker's "Obsession" which abounds with twists and turns; with the unexpected, turning what you thought you knew about Wren and her mates upon its head. It will keep you glued to the pages from start to finish and leave you wanting more. I loved getting to know more about Wren, Zac, Charles, and Ashe, adored mate number 3, Marlowe, and can't wait until the next book and mate number 4.

I gotta admit I'm getting a bit bored with this series now. Contradictorily it starting to feel like too much of the same (basically how amazing Wren is) and like the authors got bored with the confines of their own world and blew it open. In the previous books, we only had humans and vampires. Suddenly, here in this book, we have vampires, and witches, and celestials (aka angels and demons), lion, wolf and boar shifters, banshees, and portals through time. This felt like a huge departure from what previous books had lead readers to believe were the limits of the world.
Additionally, Wren now has three male mates, which I have no problem with. But I find it really unimaginative that there is no overlap. She gives one mate at time attention, there is no jealousy but there also isn't any crossover. Not in the sense of having more than one in bed at a time or with any of the males feeling affection for one another. Somehow it gives a sense of monogamy, even in the Polyandrous relationship. Which might work if they weren't all together all the time.
Also worth noting is that these books do not stand alone and this one ends on a particularly precipitous cliffhanger.
Despite saying all of that, I'm still moving on to book four. Honestly, I'll read the whole series just to see if Zac finally gets turned and to be a mate. (I'm pretty sure he will and even think I know how that will come about, but I want to see it.)
