Hidden by Sophie Jordan




Hidden (Firelight, #3) Hidden

Jacinda was supposed to bond with Cassian, the "prince" of their pride. But she resisted long before she fell in love with Will—a human and, worse, a hunter. When she ran away with Will, it ended in disaster, with Cassian's sister, Miram, captured. Weighed down by guilt, Jacinda knows she must rescue her to set things right. Yet to do so she will have to venture deep into the heart of enemy territory.

The only way Jacinda can reach Miram is by posing as a prisoner herself, though once she assumes that disguise, things quickly spiral out of her control. As she learns more about her captors, she realizes that even if Will and Cassian can carry out their part of the plan, there's no guarantee they'll all make it out alive. But what Jacinda never could have foreseen is that escaping would be only the beginning....

Loyalties are tested and sacrifices made in the explosive conclusion to Sophie Jordan's Firelight trilogy.

__________________________________________________ 

Is it a good sign when you're relieved when a series is finally over? No? Didn't think so. I liked these books but didn't love them. Why did I keep reading them? I just love dragons and couldn't give them up! I really liked the world and creativity and dragon culture - totally awesome. I just never loved the romantic entanglement - too hot and cold throughout all three books. Oh the drama!

Mom note: As a mother of readers, I also want to make a note to myself (and others if they care) why I would or would not have my children read this book, because honestly, sometimes I forget. This is a YA book, so everything is within YA strictures. Violence: yes; Profanity: don't think so?; Sex: innuendo
