About this listen
Evaline Manor thought her need for vengeance was unmatched, but Vasier Vicor’s thirst for revenge puts her to shame. Holding onto hate for eight hundred years has made him cruel and unflinching when it comes to getting what he wants. And the next step is to get his hands on her.
She’s on a mission to save her mate and leaves the safety of her kingdom to do so with one condition: do not deviate from the plan.
But sometimes, the pursuit of love forces you to veer off course.
After finding herself in the hands of a man who hates her and almost everyone else, she must do whatever she can to stop his evil plan from within the walls of his castle, to protect everyone she loves.
The Gods cursed her with a fate to end him, after all.
All the while, Maddox Vicor is fighting to get back to her with the help of his friends and family as war with Vasier brews on the horizon. Even if Kovarrin refuses to believe that battle is impending, the heart of Rominia is beating out of its cage.
With a new point of view and higher stakes, this epic conclusion to the Fated Creations series dives into love and loss, and hatred and forgiveness, as it explores the complexities of relationships between families, friends, lovers, and brothers.
Action-packed and overflowing with emotion, Sewn & Scarred closes the Fated Creations trilogy with one final message:
Some of the deepest felt pains and the hardest fought battles are made up of an army of one.

I genuinely loved the first two books, so I went into this finale with high hopes. What I got instead was a chaotic mess that felt more like filler than a proper conclusion (how is that even possible in a final book?). The plot was packed with buildup and expectations, but everything was resolved so quickly and anticlimactically that it stripped the story of any tension. Every major conflict was resolved in the same chapter it was introduced, often with solutions falling into the characters' laps as if delivered by divine intervention. There was no real struggle, no intense battle, no payoff—and honestly, it made me stop caring about the characters, the plot, or the world.
The pacing was all over the place. Despite being repetitive, the story somehow dragged and gave me whiplash at the same time. I usually devour books like this in a day, especially when they're part of a series I’ve been enjoying, but I had to force myself to read this over three days. That alone says a lot about how disengaged I felt. I had to constantly remind myself to keep reading just to make it to the end. If this hadn’t been the final book, I probably would’ve DNF’d at around 50% and just read a spoiler-filled summary for closure.
The overabundance of POVs didn’t help. It was confusing and unnecessary, and seemed to only serve the development of Sage and Wyott’s relationship. Sage’s POV took up as much space as Evaline’s—Evaline, the main character! It felt like a disservice to her and the overarching story. Sage and Wyott’s arc could have stayed as a side plot without taking up so much page time.
Let’s talk about the romance and spice. The fated mates trope was handled poorly. Instead of exploring emotional growth or a gradual deepening of connection, the couples just instantly clicked, declared eternal love, and everything went smoothly because… fate. There was no nuance, no room for individuality. I would’ve much preferred if fate had acted as a gentle nudge, allowing the characters to still choose each other and earn their bond. And the spice? Cringe. Lines like “I can’t wait for all the foreplay” said out loud mid-scene took me right out of it.
And that ending… yikes. It all wrapped up in one chapter with the gods suddenly showing up, dumping answers, fixing everything, and disappearing again. No build-up, no stakes, no emotional payoff—just a neat little bow tying everything up in the laziest way possible.
Overall, the clunky writing, overcomplicated plot, too-easy resolutions, unnecessary POVs, and erratic pacing made this finale a slog to get through. I found myself counting pages after every chapter, just waiting for it to be over. Sadly, this was not the conclusion this trilogy deserved.
