The inclusion of characters from the previous books is also a highlight and the hints at things to come are far more appealing that Aden and Zaira. Thankfully, the actual plot revolving around a mysterious cabal bent on destroying the Arrows is very compelling and there are some very intriguing twists. In fact, her obsessions with him is downright creepy, and undermines what little chemistry does exist between them. Likewise, Zaira's constant self-deprecation and possessive attitude toward Aden is not romantic in the least. While Aden's surprise ability is very intriguing, the manner in which it is revealed and then explained reduces its impact on the reader. Unfortunately, Zaira and Aden are quite bland both as individuals and as a couple. ![]() Despite the rather lackluster romance between Zaira and Aden, the developments in the ongoing story arc makes this a worthwhile addition to the series. ![]()
