Of all the worlds and life they created, the gods favored their children the most. But with that favor came the fear that their Legacy would one day become too powerful and overthrow them. Devram was created. A realm hidden amongst the stars. The gods gave their Legacy the best of all the worlds, and then they left, a sworn agreement to never return and to never interfere. Forced to a life of servitude, the Fae are required to provide for the Legacy in more ways than one. Every five years, the eligible Fae are gathered for the Selection and assigned to serve in one of the six Kingdoms. To be chosen as the personal Source for a Kingdom Heir is the greatest honor, and for the first time in a millennia, all six Kingdoms have heirs choosing a Source. But their selections could tip the power balance a little too far. Tessalyn Asura was as forgotten as the realm. But when she finds herself the personal Source to the Heir of Endings, she winds up serving in the darkest Kingdom of them all . The secrets within the Arius Kingdom are meant to be learned and kept, but this was never the life she wanted. Fighting not only the fate thrust upon her, but the temptation to lose herself to desire, Tessa will do anything to escape her new destiny. Until she starts to realize maybe their world wasn’t as forgotten as they thought, and maybe she’s the reason why.

Rain of Shadows and Endings is book one in The Legacy Series and ends on a cliffhanger. This is new adult dark fantasy romance series and includes elements that may be triggering to some readers.

Erica’s review

Here's the thing. I'm confused. I will stand by that until I complete the series. I even ASKED @kaila.books if it's a why choose and her exact response was, "No it's not a why choose like that. Please trust". Even after 3/4 books - I DO NOT TRUST. Okay, so it's not a typical why choose but I'm SO confused on whether it is…..and that drives me insane. So much of this series confused the shit out of me. It makes me very excited to read the final book 4 just to get some damn answers because I hate not knowing who I'm rooting for! I mean great job Melissa for being able to write these in a way to get me on one side then get me on the other immediately.

I also just remembered something else I disliked greatly about this series. I feel like new characters were constantly being introduced, and then they would go away for like entire books, only to be referenced slightly later on. Like WHO TF was that? I can't remember all these weird names to begin with…especially when they just pop in like hi, I'm Janyneaexphyx Doe. Bye. Then 3 books later I'm supposed to remember who the hell she was…. Sigh. I'm definitely ready for this series to wrap up so I can make my final decision!
