I love Kristen Ashley's books. Each time she comes out with a new one I can't wait to read it in my Kindle my favorites have been sweet dreams and breathe. But as of late I've noticed that several of her books for example jagged and now Kaleidoscope haven't been up to her same excellence. For example kaleidoscope ended on 91% of my Kindle normally Kristen Ashley's books fill up my Kindle. The story is about Jacob Decker and Emanuelle Holmes Old friends that reunite after nine years. I love the fact that Chase from Breathe and his wife Faye along with Lauren and Krys and other favorites from the Colorado series are in this book. The story is good Emanuelle has some definite baggage and Jacob is the one to take care of her problems. He is gorgeous and all alpha as all of Ms. Ashley's heroes are which is why love to read her books. But kaleidoscope left me wanting more it seems like it was unfinished. It just wasn't like a previous books seem to match up with her previous books that I constantly reread. I love the epilogues but this epilogue seemed short and hasty. I've read previous reviews and some reviewers have commented that it's the editing I don't know if that's the case I just wish that the book had more depth. I felt the same way about jagged it left me wanting more and it didn't feel like the characters have much depth as previous characters. Yes there's angst yes there's problems but it seems to me they are resolved to quickly. Emanuel's problems and kaleidoscope are very intense too intense for them to be solved within a few short sentences. and kaleidoscope. Emme's problems were definitely deep too deep to be solved in just a few sentences. But as always I will be looking forward to miss Ashley's books because  even if I find the books slightly lacking I love her stories.
