This is the last book in the Olive Kennedy, Fairy World M.D. series. You may commence crying.

Summary:

Theht is gone, but so are the portals. For the past four years, Olive Kennedy has been separated from her husband and deprived of the life she was meant to have in Faythander. But at least she didn't destroy the world, right?

Desperate to get back to Faythander, but also pay her bills, Olive has teamed up with her ex, Brent Sanchez, to solve crimes of the more ... unusual sort for the Houston P.D. When one of their mysteries lead them to a broken mirror with traces of magic, Olive is all over it. There's a darkness growing stronger in Faythander, and it's beckoning her home.

Review:

Okay, I can't do a real review because spoilers. While I would love to break down characters and plot and setting, I feel like I have said it all before.

Faythander is one of those magical places that, once you've read about it, makes your everyday life on Earth sorrowful. Does collecting these books count as a symptom of having been to Faythander and needing a half-elf to come diagnose me?

As far as the characters here, they hit you with all the feels. There are so many emotions rocking through you during this tumultuous time, and yet you can't give up on them. We've got new friends, old enemies, and a love story that defies all the odds. I am honored to have endured such grand adventures with such a worthy group.

Alas, at the end of the day, this was a finale. All of the loose ends have been tied, the plot holes filled in, and the mysteries solved. Now it's time to set it aside and enjoy the memories of our Faythander days. For this wonderful marvel is everything we could have wished for the ending of Olive Kennedy's story.
