The noise between Patch and Nora is gone. They’ve overcome the secrets riddled in Patch’s dark past…bridged two irreconcilable worlds…faced heart-wrenching tests of betrayal, loyalty and trust…and all for a love that will transcend the boundary between heaven and earth. Armed with nothing but their absolute faith in one another, Patch and Nora enter a desperate fight to stop a villain who holds the power to shatter everything they’ve worked for—and their love—forever.
I waited not so patiently for author Becca Fitzpatrick to finally release this book in the series. She left the readers with such a cliffhanger in the second novel that it was torture having to wait for this one. I think authors love to torture the readers by making us wait!
I will start off by saying that Hush, Hush was my absolute favorite in this series. This one titled Silence, was just that. It left me silent for a few days and afraid to post my review. While I gobbled up every scene there was with Patch in it, there weren’t many to enjoy. Patch was very much in the background for this book. Nora has fallen from such a strong heroine in the first book to such a whiny and at times obsessive character that I want to just stop reading the series. It has been such a downfall for this character.
The ending was left open for another book in the series, but it didn’t end as well as the others had. It wasn’t a ‘wow’ ending but it does leave you curious for what is to come with Nora and Patch. I just couldn’t get into this one as much as I did the first two. This series seems to be falling apart and crumbling. I want to see Nora get her kick butt personality back and Patch be the Patch I loved in the first book!
If you are already a huge fan of the series, then this book might appeal to you as a continuation of the story, but probably won’t satisfy your hunger of Patch and Nora of before.
