The final installment in the “mesmerizing” (Booklist,
starred review) and addictive trilogy—find out who truly holds the key
to Lanny’s heart and whether she’ll ever be reunited with her beloved in
this gripping supernatural tale of magic, lust, and longing.
Lanore McIlvrae has been on the run from Adair for hundreds of years, dismayed by his mysterious powers and afraid of his temper. She betrayed Adair’s trust and imprisoned him behind a stone wall to save Jonathan, the love of her life. When Adair was freed 200 years later, she was sure that he would find her and make her existence a living hell. But things turned out far different than she’d imagined.
Four years later, Lanore has tracked Adair to his mystical island home, where he has been living in self-imposed exile, to ask for a favor. She wants Adair to send her to the hereafter so she may beg the Queen of the Underworld to release Jonathan, whom she has been keeping as her consort. Will Lanore honor her promise to Adair to return? Or is her intention to reunite with Jonathan at any cost?
Of all the forces of the universe, the most mysterious, confounding, and humbling is the power of love. The epic story of love and loss, magic and destiny that began with The Taker and sparked a chase around the world in The Reckoning comes to a surprising conclusion with The Descent.

As this is the 3rd book in the series, you really need to read the first two books before this one.
Lanore (Lanny) has gone to see Adair after having nightmares. Once she sees Adair again, we two women, her feelings about Adair surface and she is even jealous.
The house that Adair is now residing in is so remote, its extremely hard to find and get to. Anyone in the house has weird dreams and feeling when first arriving. Adair believes there is a magical force around the island.
He even mentions that the two girls there with him remind him of two witch sisters.
Lanny is having those nightmares more and more since coming to the island. But before she can ask Adair for the favor she came to ask him, they spend time catching up. Lanny realizes she is in love with Adair and has been for years and years.
The story is just kinda blah through most of the book. But once you get to the point where Lanny finally ask Adair for the favor and he agrees, that's when things get good!!!
And I was surprised by the near ending and fitting. The very end was sweet.
I received my copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review
