Moonshadow Trilogy Book 3: Lionheart by Thea Harrison

Lionheart (Moonshadow, #3)
Moonshadow Trilogy Book 3
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Thea Harrison comes the final story in her spellbinding Moonshadow trilogy…

King Oberon reigned over his Dark Court in Lyonesse for centuries, until an assassination attempt laid him low. Now he lies unconscious in his snow-bound palace, while his Power battles the enchantment that threatens to end his life.

A skilled trauma surgeon and magic-user, Dr. Kathryn Shaw reigns at the top of her profession in New York. Then comes a challenge she can’t resist—she is asked to cure the uncureable. Just getting close enough to try healing Oberon is a dangerous proposition. When she does reach him, he awakens too soon.

Roused from darkness by Kathryn’s presence, Oberon confronts the beautiful stranger who claims she wants to save his life. But the enchantment has frozen his emotions. How can he learn to trust her when he can’t feel anything?

Oberon’s desire is icy, devoid of all tenderness. Not only must Kathryn match wits with him, she must also fight her reaction to his touch, because there is so much more at stake than her own endangered heart.

For the Dark Court faces its most deadly peril yet. Its ancient enemy Isabeau, Queen of the Light Court, is obsessed with its annihilation, and Oberon must be brought to remember his loyalty and affection for his people.

Because if he won’t fight for them, Lyonesse itself may very well be destroyed…

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Absolutely fantastic! I loved this final book in the Moonshadow trilogy. Kathryn and Oberon's story was amazing to read! We finally enter the endgame of the war again Isabeau. Kathryn has been asked to see if she can finally wake up King Oberon and heal him from the assassination that Isabeau orchestrated. How Kathryn succeeds in this was super creative and I loved how there was no obvious answer. And when Oberon is awake the chemistry between them is hard to deny, despite their constant bickering. Their banter was hilarious. Besides Oberon and Kathryn becoming two of my favorite couple and just characters in general in this series and universe, the storyline was also really great. We got to finally see Lyonesse and reunite with characters from the previous two books. The final showdown with Isabeau was one we all waited for and I was deeply satisfied with the story. Though this is the end of this trilogy, I am hoping and assuming that it isn't the end of stories in the Elder Races universe. This was definitely one of my favorites by Thea Harrison.

I received an ARC for a honest review.
