Just when I think I couldn't love Brooke Cumberland's books anymore, she hits us with BURN (Spark #2)! Holy Crap this book is amazing! I loved Eric and Velaney in Spark, and loved them even more in Burn!This book had a lot of ups and downs for these characters, and a few times you're like "will they make it?" but this story was a perfect end for Velaney and Eric. The love they share for each other is so amazing, and real. A few times during this book I was in tears. Some of the trials that Eric and Velaney go through really hit home, going through something similar myself, and the way Brooke handled the situation, and the pain, was all too real, and told exactly like someone who has gone through it or understands. She did that part of the story (sorry, no spoilers) total justice, and even though it was hard to read, was dead on and written beautifully.We get to see more of Eric's past in BURN and he's not all rainbows and butterflies either, which is why I think these two are perfect for each other. Having someone in your life who understands that sometimes your past is not perfect, and haunts you and loves you unconditionally still is a beautiful thing, and again Brooke told this beautifully.I loved this story so much! The heartbreak, the craziness, the WTF moments, and most of all the relationship of Eric and Velaney was just amazing. I'm sad to see their story end, but it was perfect. Love isn't always easy, but when you find that person that will stick with you through anything, you hold on tight, even when it's hard. In this story these characters find this out, and it's going to take a few to get this one out of my head.If you haven't read Spark, you are missing out! Eric and Velaney's story is one of the best stories I've read in a long time, and I encourage all of you to pick it up. This is one series you will not regret reading. It has it all! Just make sure you have some time to read, because you won't want to put these books down. This series is one of the top series I've read this year and I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.Complimentary copy provided by author/publisher for an honest review.
