Arcana Rising (The Arcana Chronicles #4) by Kresley Cole 
SUMMARY 

When the battle is done . . . 
The Emperor unleashes hell and annihilates an army, jeopardizing the future of mankind--but Circe strikes back. The epic clash between them devastates the Arcana world and nearly kills Evie, separating her from her allies.

And all hope is lost . . . 
With Aric missing and no sign that Jack and Selena escaped Richter's reach, Evie turns more and more to the darkness lurking inside her. Two Arcana emerge as game changers: one who could be her salvation, the other her worst nightmare.

Vengeance becomes everything.
To take on Richter, Evie must reunite with Death and mend their broken bond. But as she learns more about her role in the future--and her chilling past--will she become a monster like the Emperor? Or can Evie and her allies rise up from Richter's ashes, stronger than ever before? 

MY REVIEW 

Two opposing forces joining together.

Life and Death.

With his forehead resting against mine, he bit out, “We might be going . . . to hell for this.” But that wasn’t stopping him; pressure grew as he pushed deeper.

I gasped. “Then we’ll rule it together.”
His lips parted. “Es tevi mīlu.” I love you.
For an instant, I saw Jack above me. A moment of time. . . .

I blinked, and I was staring into starry amber eyes again. “I love you too.”

I am still not sure where the games between Evie, Jack and Aric will lead. And whether I like the fact that she needs to choose or not. Maybe she should follow Sol's lifestyle and not choose.

Anyway, I loved Sol in this book. And I forgive him.
I also cannot understand Aric's behaviour. I believe he is a master manipulator who has been around hundreds of years more than the others
He knows how to make Evie comply to his will.

Jack is still the most innocent, truthful and ready for self-sacrifice character.

Evie started innocent and pure but she is evolving.
