Annalise Fallston made peace with postponing her big-city dreams to care for her ill father, but lately she’s been filled with a restlessness not even her beloved painting dispels. Worse, the colors don’t speak to her as they always have, and all her efforts produce dark, foreboding images of a dangerous man and a terrifying future.
Devlin Eston, black-souled son of the evil Anemoi Eurus, is the only one who can thwart his father’s plan to overthrow the Supreme God of Wind and Storms. But first, Dev must master the unstable powers he’s been given. Distrusted and shunned by his own divine family, he never expected to find kindness and passion in the arms of a mortal.
But Devlin’s love puts Annalise in the path of a catastrophic storm, and in the final Armageddon showdown between the Anemoi and Eurus, sacrifices will be made, hearts broken, and lives changed forever…or lost.

I can honestly say that Laura Kaye does paranormal as well as she does paranormal. I’ve enjoyed all of the Hearts of Anemoi series, and while they are all easily read as stand-alone they do have a continuing story arc that spans the whole series.
East of Ecstasy builds on the previous books, and Ms. Kaye goes out with a bang with the end of her series. I was right there with the characters as everything was thrown into turmoil and Ms. Kaye proves that she knows how to build a story and a world that kept me interested. She knows how to play with my emotions and I felt everything right along with Anna and Devlin.
Devlin Easton is a tortured hero but once he finds Anna and finds love, he’s easy to love because while he wants to keep Anna at a safe distance, he kept help falling in love. I definitely loved him.
I enjoyed that Anna was courageous, self-possessed and compassionate. She was a great heroine. I really loved the chemistry between Devlin and Anna, I loved that it built up slowly and that they seemed to really respect and love each other. I loved the blend of romance and action in the story, and I definitely felt like the series wrapped up beautifully. I will gladly recommend and re-read this series.
