The Amethyst Kingdom (The High Mountain Court #5) by A.K Mulford

Carys Hilgaard has grown over the years, having escaped her past as a prejudiced rich fae who was perpetually drunk to a powerful fae warrior. When the Eastern Court trials to become the new King/Queen, Carys is ready to win the crown and become her peoples queen in order to protect the ones she loves as well as improving the lives of humans and witches. When her estranged fated mate appears as a competitor, Carys struggles to balance the competition, the threat looming on the horizon, and the possibility of reclaiming her lost love.

Was the absolute perfect finale to the series with the final character of the group finding love and her place in the world. It was really refreshing to see a character deal with depression and PTSD in such a real way, having everything she's felt be validated by those around her. All of the characters in the novels are so relatable and all have such a path of growth through the entire series. It definitely is a second chance romance story, and it was so different than every fated mate book I've ever read, but it's so much more than that. There are action packed sequences, a final conclusion to the overall nemesis of the series, battles of power, and reuniting friends that are more like found family. I couldn't recommend a better series than this one, it truly has everything one could wish for! The final chapter to wrap everything up was everything I could have wished for, was the perfect ending to this wonderful and captivating series.
