Belladonna walked, Foxglove flew, and Wisteria traversed time and space to get this trilogy to the god-tier level it is.
I'm being dramatic, of course, but NOT AS MUCH AS ARIS AND BLYTHE.
Wisteria directly continued after the events of Foxglove, which already had me smirking, because the forced proximity between Aris and Blythe sustained me throughout. And my gawd, how Adalyn managed to slow-burn a fated romance and still have simmering banter was just chef's kiss. The book was definitely more romance heavy than the previous books, but I found I didn't mind so much. By Part 3, I was honestly just here for the vibes.
Did I love this book? Absolutely. I think Belladonna did beat out Wisteria by a smidgen, but as a trilogy, the third book stuck its landing.
