Not only is<br \/>\nRed Armand still on the loose, he\u2019s dragged Vasilios and Sven back to hellish Oreylia with<br \/>\nhim. Darya might have returned to the safe and loving arms of Peter and her family but she<br \/>\ncannot rest until she saves the two men she once considered her enemies. Now they\u2019re her<br \/>\nfriends, perhaps even more than that in the case of Vas, and she can\u2019t just leave them to their<br \/>\nawful fates.<\/p>\n<p>But in order to travel to Oreylia, she must once again leave the people she loves behind. And<br \/>\nthis time the decision threatens to tear her and Peter apart for good. There\u2019s no guarantee that<br \/>\nshe\u2019ll be able to come back, and the uncertainty leaves a gaping chasm between Darya and<br \/>\nthe first boy she ever loved. The vision of her future burns strong in her mind, and the more it<br \/>\npenetrates, the more she comes to realise that she might live up to the prophecy of her birth,<br \/>\nbut not in the way she or anyone else could\u2019ve possibly imagined.<\/p>\n<p>Blaze: An Oreylia Novel is book #3 in L.H. Cosway\u2019s Blood Prophecy Series. All books in<br \/>\nthe series must be read in order.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find\u00a0<em>Blaze\u00a0<\/em>on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/63917568-blaze\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GOODREADS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Review<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>4.5 prophecy fulfilling stars!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><i>Blaze<\/i> is the third and final book in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/?page_id=61873\"><i>Blood Prophecy<\/i><\/a> series and it picks up where book two leaves off. Darya has escaped from the Prison of Thorns but Vasilios and Sven were taken back to Oreylia with Red Armand. She is glad to be back in the arms of Peter but things have changed since her time in prison. Everything she thought she knew about Vas was wrong and now she can\u2019t accept that he and Sven are gone. She will stop at nothing to save them, even if it means leaving home again.<\/p>\n<p>In the Prison of Thorns, Darya learns that not all is as it seems and she and Vas grow closer, strengthening their connection. When she returns to Peter, she should be happy but she can\u2019t accept that Vas is suffering again in the fiery depths of the mines on Oreylia. Obviously, her parents aren\u2019t on board with her traveling to Oreylia, so Darya must figure out how to go without them knowing.<\/p>\n<p>This story is a fantastic conclusion to the <i>Blood Prophecy<\/i> series. It gives us more magic and mayhem as Darya fully comes into her own and finally begins fulfilling the prophecy she never understood. She sees things she\u2019s never seen and is tested in ways like never before. There is turmoil both outside in the world and inside in her mind as she realizes what she has to do to and faces the feelings she\u2019s tried so hard to push away.<\/p>\n<p>The storyline is fast paced and exciting, and the conclusion is more than I had hoped. I am not a fan of love triangles and this one was well done and turned out the way I wanted. I loved that Darya shows what she is capable and never gives up. I enjoyed getting to see where Vas came from and I loved that we get more of his powers as well. I loved the secondary characters we met in the first two books and liked getting to know more characters in this book.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, <i>Blaze<\/i> gave me what I wanted when it came to finishing the series. I loved Darya and her strength and I loved everything about Vas\u2019s character. I was so happy to see the future unfold the way it does, and finished the last page with a smile on my face.<\/p>\n<p><em>*ARC generously provided by the author*<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr
