Azure is the fifth book in the Silver series and we start off with a pack that isn't Jaze Carso's! Instead, Vance is the Alpha of Two, a hideaway retreat that rich parents can send their alpha sons to, supposedly to protect them. From the way we read about Vance, that protection comes at a cost. Things are going okay for Vance until they are ambushed and he has to protect his pack. Then, he falls for Nora, one of the Hunters who attacked them. No good can come from this, surely?!

Although this book didn't tick as many boxes for me as the others (and I have absolutely NO idea why!!!) I still thoroughly enjoyed the story. I think, for me, it was the love triangle between Nora-Vance-Gem. I'm really not a big fan of them so that may be why. However, I will say, in this situation, it is oh so believable! No matter how much you love someone, to go through what Vance and Gem did, gives you a bond that may be confused with love. I thought it was really well written and perfect for the story.

This is such a fantastic series and I really am loving every book. Yes, even this one! 😊 Cheree Alsop writes in such a spectacular way as to show the emotions of what her characters are going through. The limelight is also shared amongst the characters. Absolutely amazing and highly recommended by me.

Okay, so I might be a bit biased towards Death as I have loved his character in the other three books, but I loved the insights into his past and his character that we got in this book. Death has his own lesson to learn, just like the other Horsemen did. And I will also admit to LOVING the growth of Pierre in this story. He goes from being a poor little rich boy, with no friends, high on heroin, to taking responsibility and standing on his own two feet. He no longer blames the world for his shortcomings, instead, he is working hard to overcome them. And he has done the big first step BY HIMSELF. He didn't use Death as a heroin replacement but instead took the first scary step whilst Death was away.

I think the only thing that confused me momentarily in this book is that Aldo (Pestilence) and Bart had both met Pierre, albeit when he was suffering withdrawal symptoms, but still. However, they are both confused in their own book when they receive a wedding invitation from Gatian and Pierre. Now they might not have known Death's 'mortal' name, but they did know Pierre's. Still, this is a very insignificant point that in no way detracted from my enjoyment.

Well-written, smoothly paced and with an amazing amount of growth, this book is simply delightful. This is definitely the star in the series for me although I have thoroughly enjoyed every book. I would love for a story of Lam and Day *hint hint*. Definitely recommended.
