Burning Bright

I was so happy to start Burning Bright, that lasted right up until I remembered this was it, no more Bryn! And although it took me just two days to read, rather devour, this final instalment did seem slightly longer than previous offerings but I certainly wasn't complaining.

This time around there is again a strong focus on relationships with the first half of Burning Bright centering on connections both past and present as well as the challenges of trying to work as a team with a Blue, yes Jaxon but Burning Bright does welcome back pretty much all characters old and new and yes, this includes both Zavien and Valmont!

I don't think as much time was spent on the overarching mystery and although it may have been a little rushed towards the back end of the story it didn't feel detrimental to the whole.

In true Bryn fashion there are numerous laugh out loud quips, usually at Jaxon's expense and although the conflict did seem a little shorter this was overall a satisfying conclusion to the series which left me wearing a smile but I'm not gonna lie man, she could have definitely written another 3, 4, 10 books!

Now then, for those of you interested in the romance you'll get to point once Bryn makes her decision in terms of her personal life were you start to get a bad feeling, you'll think to yourself surely this isn't going were I think it's going, and I feel it important that this torture be shared so no, I'm not going to tell you whether it's unfounded, happy reading!

Just kidding, but not really :)

this gets all the stars.

"Probably." He grinned. "Stay with me for awhile?"
"Sure." She sat in the chair next to him. "I'm going to tell you a story. Once upon a time there was a cute princess and a handsome prince. When they first met, the prince hated the princess because his father was still mad at the princess's mother. Once they became acquainted, they went on many adventures together and became friends. Then the prince did something really stupid and scared the crap out of the princess, forcing her to see that she loved him, but that was okay because he loved her, too, and he swore never to do anything stupid ever again. The end."
"Never again? That might be a hard deal to keep."
"But you'll try, right?"
"I'll try," he said. "And now I'm going to tell you a story. Once upon a time, a prince thought he understood how the world worked. He believed everything his father told him. Then this strange princess with multicolored hair barged into his life and threw everything off course. She showed him there was more to life than shiny objects and fast cars. Not that those things aren't awesome—because they are—but she showed him that sometimes, all you need is someone who will sit with you, read books, and share their cookies and milk. Although she wasn't very good at sharing cookies, but that's a story for another time. The End."


i read this series for the first time somewhere around april of 2016, and it has been one of my favorites since. although it is ya and doesn’t have a lot going on in the ~sexy~ part of the relationships, i love chris cannon’s style of writing and the plot line of the book. this is a must read series for anyone who likes paranormal ya romances, and I would definitely recommend it. even though i know the series is over, fingers crossed that the author will write another book that takes place a couple years later!

A HUGE thank you to Chris Cannon/Entangled for an ARC copy of this book-god knows how long I’ve been waiting for it;)
