This trilogy had potential, but it was buried under repetitive smut, filler, and some truly cringeworthy moments. Tessa made some wild choices (even post-gunshot sex? Really?), and the plot often felt like a cycle of drama → sex → more drama.

Still, Saint was a standout—loyal, charming, and consistent. The final twist surprised me, and despite the mess, I stayed hooked. Could’ve been one tighter book instead of three, but if you're in it for the drama, it delivers.

A fun ending to an overall great series. I had fun reading this dark academia spicy romance series and this final book was a neat way to tie it all up! Definitely would read this series from the top again!

This was my first Roxy arc and it didn’t disappoint! I was hooked from the first page until the end!

I'm going to be honest, I totally forgot that this was apart of a trilogy. With that being said, it was still an enjoyable read, despite the few parts that did leave me a bit confused. It just means that I will have to go back and read books one and two to get the full effect this series is meant to have. This does have some spice, dark romance with a bit of mystery. With how short this book is, I imagine the other two are also short, which means this series is a quick read altogether. And that's something that I enjoy myself when I'm looking for a filler series.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the Publisher for the eARC.

I have been eagerly waiting for this one! I know this is a re-release, but I hadn't gotten a chance to read it before NetGalley and oh how I am binging the whole series! Their story had me flipping page after page with angst. SO. GOOD.

This book is a perfect example of a "spice-first, plot-second" read. The pages are packed with explicit scenes that are well written, especially if you're a fan of certain spicy tropes. While the storyline itself leans toward the predictable side, it doesn't detract from the enjoyment. In fact, the familiarity of the plot adds to the comfort of the read.

What truly captivated me was how the author wove real-world issues—like the influence of pharmaceutical companies and the dynamics of power—into the narrative. By the end, when everything comes crashing down, I found myself cheering for the downfall, loving the writing’s ability to turn such serious themes into a compelling story.

Okay so this wasn't my favorite one in the series, but I appreciated how it wrapped everything up. WE finally got the answers we were seeking, and Roxy really did put a red bow on all of it for us.

That being said. I did feel like the spice could have been better. We got so much creative and good content in the prior installments, that it kind of fell flat for me in this area.

Overall though, I am glad to have this series under my belt and I will always fall for a good professor/student trope.

This book hooked me right from the start with its slow-burn tension.
The romance was fun, steamy, and realistic, and the characters felt like real people.
I was totally engaged throughout the entire novel.
The book was full of vivid descriptions and vivid imagery to the point where I felt like I had slipped into the pages.

First and foremost, thank you to the publisher and the author for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. I loved this story and it was definitely worth the read!

Was not a fan. I'm sure someone would enjoy this book, but I personally did not. Would not read anything else by this author.

Equal blend of mystery, suspense, betrayal, corruption and sizzling romance. Power, money, blackmail, fraud - what some will do to just keep getting more, at any cost. Once you cross the line, it all gets easier. A lot of action and suspense, with a bit of kink!

This book read like a poorly written fanfiction. It was just so boring and cringy and did not need to be as long as it did. In fact, I don't think that this needed to be an actual book and this series could have just been one or two books, not three.

Thank you to Avon and Harper Voyager, Roxy Sloane, and NetGalley for the eARC of this book. This is my honest review.

Seal My Fate by Roxy Sloane was a mixed bag for me. The premise had a lot of promise, especially with the dark and seductive edge the author is known for, but the execution didn’t fully land.

The chemistry between the characters was definitely there, and some of the steamy scenes were well written. If you’re just looking for spice, this book delivers on that front. But when it came to emotional depth and plot development, it fell a little short. The characters felt a bit one-dimensional at times, and the story moved fast without giving enough space to really build the tension or explore the characters’ motivations.

It wasn’t bad, just not great either. I finished it, but I wasn’t fully invested. It felt like it was trying to hit the typical dark romance beats without adding anything new. That said, if you’re a fan of Roxy Sloane’s style, you might still enjoy it. Just go in with moderate expectations.

I love Roxy’s writing style, so this was an easy, enjoyable read for me. Saint’s POV was my absolute favorite part of the entire book. This book was a great end to this trilogy!

This book is a fast-paced, spicy mystery. It has an outstanding balance of spice and mystery/action scenes.
Overall, I think Tessa could have paid more attention during her "investigation". I do like how this book wrapped everything up for the ending. I was surprised by the number of people involved.
I enjoyed the spice, but feel Tessa lacked in the critical thinking department, although Saint seemed to drive fast enough to save her each time.
Thank you, NetGalley, Avon and Harper Voyager, and Roxy Sloane, for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

3.5 ⭐️ This was a decent third and final book to the trilogy. There’s still the same amount of spice. I think the Midnight Club aspect makes this story unique because it seems so unheard of. The mystery and corruption keeps the story flowing and kept my interest. I was hoping for a little more shock factor towards the end but the authors hints throughout the series made it a bit predictable or at the very least not surprising when the truths were uncovered.
I’d say book two was my favorite out of the three. I’ll definitely read more by this author in the future.

This book was a good conclusion to the oxford legacy trilogy. But I do feel like it could have been two book and not three. I understand why it was three books but it honestly could have been two with how quick the writing was. I also though this book was ok not good or great, everything just felt rushed and the storyline just didn't match the theme of this book. It's suppose to be a dark academia book but she's no longer in school and then the spice at times just didn't do it for me.

This story gives everything it needs to give! This is a fantastic conclusion to a flawless trilogy. So many twists and turns and the spice was spicing. Loved this book. Had me sucked in from the start.

Seal My Fate by Roxy Sloane is a captivating dark academia romance that immediately drew me in and left me craving more. I found myself unable to set this book down as the intensity of the story increased and the stakes grew higher. This novel serves as the perfect conclusion to the trilogy, beautifully wrapping up the love story between Saint and Tessa. It is truly a delightful read that I can envision myself revisiting time and time again. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an early copy of this book in exchange for a review.

I love the wrapup for this trilogy!

This is pretty standard contemporary romance stuff, but with that being said I ATE THIS UP! I will always think of this trilogy and I wish I could read it again for the first time.

The spice is so good. The dark academia themes create such an air of mystery without being truly dark or causing too much stress (I'm not into high stress romance lol). The way the couple comes together and wraps up the story just makes perfect sense.

No notes.
