Review: Succubus Revealed by Richelle Mead

Goodreads Description
Georgina Kincaid has had an eternity to figure out the opposite sex, but sometimes they still surprise her. Take Seth Mortensen. The man has risked his soul to become Georgina's boyfriend. Still, with Lucifer for a boss, Georgina can't just hang up her killer heels and settle down to domestic bliss. In fact, she's being forced to transfer operations… to Las Vegas. 

The City of Sin is a dream gig for a succubus, but Georgina's allies are suspicious. Why are the powers-that-be so eager to get her away from Seattle—and from Seth? Georgina is one of Hell's most valuable assets, but if there's any way out of the succubus business she plans to take it—no matter how much roadkill she leaves behind. She just hopes the casualties won't include the one man she's risking everything for…

My Review

I absolutely loved this book.  It was a brilliant ending to the Georgina Kincaid series.  Whilst I wanted to devour the book as quickly as possible and get my answers to questions left hanging after the last instalment, I also wanted to savour every part of Georgina's story and make it last for as long as possible.  My impatience eventually won out.  

Whilst I had previously predicated the big 'twist' that was revealed in this book I was still on the edge of my seat with Georgina and her friends as the truth about her relationship with Seth was unveiled and the validity of her contract with Hell was called into question.  As predictable as the story and characters in this book were, Richelle's writing was captivating and engaging: I felt that I was journeying with Georgina, experiencing her highs and lows with her. 

I've come to adore the characters in this series and I will miss them now that their story has concluded.  For me, this book ties together all the loose ends and questions I had about Georgina and I feel satisfied that her story has been told.  I look forward to Richelle Mead's next series.

Favourite Quote

"Do you know the price of one soul, Georgina? It's beyond rubies and diamonds, beyond any mortal reckoning. If it had taken me centuries, if it had taken a dozen more angels to help me, it all would have been worth it."
