The first thing that comes to mind is WOW! this is the final book in the Cascade series, which I have absolutely loved. And then I get sad because it's the last book in the series. But it was simply amazing and didn't disappoint as it wrapped up the series. For those who haven'tread the previous books in the series. read them, seriously you will be able to enjoy Persuasion Enraptured more fully if you do.

When the last book Fragility Unearthed finished I was sad I was all is this where it ends? it's just so sad, poor Kendall and Poor Malcolm. but then i heard it wasn't the end. But the question was how was Kendall going to be Kendall again? The short answer is she's not. she's super Kendall. The start of this book broke my heart and I didn't know how it would work out. with the ordeal of the Shadow Realm Kendall was broken, but she was like the beautiful Japanese Pottery that gets broken and lined with gold when repaired. And that is seen to be more beautiful and stronger than ever. She was stronger and more able to fight the fight against the shadows as ever. She just needs a little help at first. And Damn the fight seems near Impossible but with Malcolm, Victoria, her best friend and the others who are living their second life they can fight these impossible odds and protect the innocent.

Kendall and Malcolm's relation dynamic has changed, They have had a young baby girl together and Kendall sacrificed herself to close the Shadow Dimension at the end of the last book. And it takes a toll on each other for something so huge. There was still growth in their characters and I feel they became an even stronger couple, they just had to go through some road bumps.

I'm still sad that this is the end of The Cascade but i would LOVE a spinoff. even if its set WAY in the future.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review

This story will keep you on the edge of your seat, it'll makes you want to scream! Wow it's such a Phenomenal read that I absolutely adore The Cascade Series! Rebecca Royce creates the most IRRESISTIBLE, PHENOMENAL characters that are so thrilling! There are a few twists in this story that I didn't see coming.The story is so amazing, Jaw Dropping and unforgettable.

Rebecca Royce has managed to complete The Cascade series with a bang. This entire series has been an edge of your seat kind of series. Every time you think you have figured out what she has planned for the characters bam you are hit with a surprise. The characters are some of the best written characters I've ever read. You can't help but love the good guys and loath the evil ones. I'm not going to spoil the ending but I'll say that everything you've wanted to happen throughout the series comes to pass. All the questions the we've had are answered and the explanations are perfect. This is a series that I'll come back to in the future an reread. Hind sight and all that I wonder if I'll see things differently the next read through. Congratulations Mrs Royce on your accomplishment of writing one of the best completed series I've read this year. I received an ARC from the publisher. This is my complete and honest review.

I am so sorry to see this series end but this time comes for every good series.
Rebecca Royce has managed once more to give us a thrilling story that simply captivates you and you just don't want it to finish.
A phenomenal read for sure with amazingly well put and strong characters that i will surely miss.
The mystery just keeps you in your seat and while you think you have figured everything out a twist comes and rocks your world.
There will be tears and anguish and laughter that i promise and there also is going to be a wild ride from the darkness of the shadow lands to the light of Kendal and Malcom.
An excellent end to an excellent Series by Rebecca Royce.
Its a MUST read!!!

Now this one is a juicy one full of drama so much so the emotional wringer will go overtime. Kendall has you coming and going in this one but it will be what the wait was for. Since this also is the climax before the ending in one you will be on the edge before you start. This is full bodied with you wanting to see what everyone is doing. Pieces will fall into place as a puzzle is finished in this one having you slap your head at times because this author got ya. This is also one refreshing series that is not like any out there to be sure which is one of the great things of paranormal discovering gems such as this series.

This was a very satisfying end to a wonder series. While there were times I might have doubted the direction of the plot and characters, I should not have doubted Rebecca Royce. She turned it all around and keep me on the edge of my seat the entire time. There was action, suspense, and I loved the interactions between the characters, both the good and bad. I'm sad that this series is finished, but I felt fulfilled at the conclusion and I can tell that I will end up rereading it many times in the future.

The story starts about a week after what happened at the end of book 3, Fragility Unearthed. Kendall had made the decision to seal herself in the Shadow dimension to protect her family and earth. When she is finally saved, she is a completely different person, a hardened woman who had to survive on her own for a long time. Her friends had to make some difficult decisions concerning Kendall to help her adjust to life back on Earth. There were some twists in the story that as a reader I did not see coming which made for an exciting book. Great series!

In the last book Kendall has sacrificed herself for her family and friends. Now her existence is in the Shadow Dimension. She gave up hope of Malcolm coming for her a long time ago. But surprise!

Time has passed differently for her than the others. She existed just exists, feelings and love are a thing of the past.

Kendall has changed and the lengths they go to help her regain herself leave her conflicted.

She finds out a lot about herself and the others as they prepare for the final battle.

A page turning, emotional, conclusion to this fabulous tale!

We left off with Kendall sacrificing herself for everyone else at the end of the last book. While she may have given up hope, her loved ones have not. Just getting her back is not the end of the journey though. There is still a battle going on and war to be won. Kendall will never be the same but sometimes change is a good thing.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this entire series. It has kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the whole thing and this last book was no exception. I'm really sad to see it end but man what an ending it was.

I thought I knew want to expect when I started reading. My expectations were blown out of the water over and over again from the very start of the book. Kendall and crew really worked hard. Everything fell into place as the book progressed and questions that I didn't even realize I had were answered. Each of the characters were given their due and strong presences. It was a wonderful way to bring everything to an end… or is it the end.

Emotionally thrilling, action packed, highly entertaining epic conclusion to an all out paranormal war to save the world from total darkness.

The fight to save Kendall so she can save the world is emotionally gripping and keeps you glued to the edge of your seat. This epic paranormal adventure is so engaging, thrilling and filled with heart pounding twists and turns. Adored the entire series but loved this installment the most.

So sad to have this series end but what an ending. Kendall went through so much in this book and some of it was truly heartbreaking. This book was full of action and drama and we finally got all of our questions answered. I can't say too much without spoiling but it was amazing. Glad we got a little peek at how they are doing after the events of the book.

So this series come to its conclusion and I really enjoyed it. It took the whole books for Kendall to realise she needs the team to take on the master but once she got there they got the job done. I wanted to give it a 4 star but I found bits a bit rushed in places and sometimes I got a little bored. But overall it was a decent end to the series.

Sacrifice and love are both the same side in the war against the dark. Kendall's win is not necessarily the victory she was hoping for.

Well all good things must come to an end and I'm sad to see the end of Kendall and the crew!

She has faced tragedy, despair, loss and a gamut of other emotions, all whilst dealing with a divorce from Levi, reconnecting with Malcolm, learning about her missing childhood and becoming pregnant for a 4th time! More than enough for any one persons plate!

Kendall stepped through a portal to protect those she loved and seal in the shadows. She left everyone, including her new baby behind. But time moves differently in the Shadow Dimension and what has been a tense week in Austin had been a century for Kendall! But when Malcolm manages to get her back on the right side of the portal more than her hair colour has changed!

Thoroughly satisfied with the ending. Great pace and story was well written and plotted. Lots of twists and turns and a healthy dollop of humour mixed in. I loved the fact that Levi just stepped up to the plate and looked after Abbi amongst the madness. Further secrets of the gang's "safe haven" are revealed and Top Hat becomes a kinda ally! Sad to see them go but glad everything worked out in the end, even with the losses they sustained.

Persuasion Enraptured by Rebecca Royce is the fourth and final installment in The Cascade Series.
Persuasion Enraptured picks up where Fragility Unearthed The Cascade book three ends up.

Kendall sacrificed herself and is now all alone in the shadow dimension - without hope of escape.
But her friends and family don´t give up on her.
Is Kendall the phoenix like Victoria believes?
And will they destroy earth in their attempt to fight shadows and demons?

I read this book in one sitting. I was so happy that Malcolm and Kendall got thier HEA.
I rate this book 4 Stars. Thank you Rebecca Royce !

Kendall sacrificed herself and is now trapped in the Shadow Dimension. Because of the way time moves, she’s given up all hope. She barely feels human. Luckily her family hasn’t give up.
This is the fourth and final book in the Cascade series. I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book or how the author would choose to end the series. Throughout the series, she managed to pull me deeper and deeper into Kendall’s world and with everything she was going through. I was very satisfied with this entire book and series. I highly recommend.

I received a free book and voluntarily chose to review it. In some books I look for a strong woman. In this book I have two strong women and they work together. Keep tissues handy you may want them. Kendall has gotten stronger since the third book and plans to rid the city of The Master (the boss). Nothing is certain in this book except for plans and more plans.

Oh my! What an awesome series! This had me sitting at the edge of my seat and hanging on to every word.
In the last book we ended with kendall sacrificing herself and jumping into the hole to close the gateway into the shadow dimension. She had been trapped thier for one of our weeks but not in her time. It's been longer. When Malton comes for her. He finds his Kendall has changed in more then one way.
This is an action-packed amazing story with fantastic twist and turns. I loved the characters they had so much depth and creatively to them.
Your not going to want to miss this wild adventure, it will be your new favourite story!
Voluntarily reviewed a copy and I honestly loved it all!

What a perfect end to this series! This book and this entire series has kept us on the edge of our seats throughout. The drama, the intrigue, the romance, the action, the sense of family and loyalty, and the timeless battle of good vs. evil all combine to make this series a phenomenal read. The plot is ingenious and innovative, the writing impressive, the imagery vivid, and the characters complex and well thought out. These characters, despite being paranormal in nature, are so real and raw and so damned relatable that you just can't help but become invested in their lives and rooting for them becomes second nature. They completely draw you into the story and make you believe in this extraordinary world the author has created for us where a group of magically talented heroic friends battle shadows, demons, and ghosts in order to save the world. I absolutely adored this book, and I have to say I'm more than a little sad to see this series end. I would highly recommend this book and this entire series to anyone looking for a provocative, riveting, and utterly compelling read.

A hundred years in the Shadow dimension? It change people. Kendall knows it. She is hard now, and she'll need time to cope. But she is also a bad ass, she has developed her powers, and she's The Master worst enemy.
I liked the plot very much and how it all ended. It's a solid 4 stars read.

We’re not in Texas anymore! Rebecca once again takes us on a paranormal ride into other dimensions as she concludes this battle against the shadows. She definitely keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering what will happen next. This episode has a few more surprises and you will not be disappointed. Kendall once again struggles to pull herself together to keep her family safe while trying to figure out how she is supposed to vanquish (Yes, Rebecca, great word!) The Master. Her shocking revelations will have you wondering 1. Where does Rebecca come up with these concepts and 2. What would you do in Kendall’s shoes? And of course 3. What will happen next? It seems everyone has some sort of secret. Some are trivial and mundane while others are devastating. Be patient as all will be revealed by the end. Thank you Rebecca for another amazing read!

Persuasion Enraptured
Rebecca Royce

A magic infused story that will have you to the very end with all the drama, fights and romance in between to find out just what happens in the end. Loved this series. My advice is to read in order or you will most definitely be lost.

A woman lost in the hole of the shadows, fighting to stay alive. A broken family who loves her no matter how much she has changed in a matter of days. And a world who depends on her magic to stop the take over of The Master.

Kendall is trying her hardest from not dying again over and over. The shadows are definitely getting on her last nerves coming in her house looking for a fight. Well they got it and they won't like it when she fries them with the light. A lot has happened since she jumped into that shadow hole. She has become tougher and losing weight. Her attitude about the shadows has changed dramatically. She wants them all dead including the master. But why is she here at the in between? But when a man appears in her tent she is shocked at what she sees. Can he be real? And this stuff that he is spouting out of his mouth... Can it all be true? Can she come back to the real world and really save it once and for all???

I have loved this series, it's dark, complexed and a bit mad in places, you can't help but feel something for all the characters it's definitely been a emotional journey but I've enjoyed every moment.

This whole series has been such a captivating storyline from beginning to end, full of dramatic twists throughout the 4 books.
Part of me was reluctant to read this knowing it was the last book, but after such a heart stopping ending to book 3 I had to know what hapened next.
