review 1: As soon as Enthralled hit my hands, I quickly turned to page 233. I’ve been longing to read Bridge, written in Logan Keeley’s point of view by Jeri Smith-Ready. You definitely should recognize his awesome, swoon-worthy character from Jeri’s Shade Series. (Pay attention, because there is a reason why Bridge started on page 233). My stomach was in knots as soon as I read the title... Bridge. I was recommended by some of the #TeamKilt members who were able to read Bridge before it's release to have my kleenex ready. The tears started pouring from the corner of my eyes as soon as I read the second paragraph, last sentence. And from there, I read on in anticipation and sobbed… “Don’t Leave Me.” Oh Logan! *clutches chest* Bridge is beautifully written and is a shor... moret story about Logan trying to connect with and apologize to his older brother, Micky. I cried for Logan and his longing. I cried for Micky who is suffering over the loss of his brother and the blame he burdens himself with. Jeri introduces us to a new character, Krista, who helps Logan try to redeem himself with his brother and for Micky to have closure. She’s another character to love and to be thankful for, and to me, she is a heroin. The day after reading Bridge, my husband was generous enough to read it to me. I closed my eyes and envisioned every word of Logan’s story. I embraced his story even more. Jeri makes it simple for her reader’s to visualize her writings… it’s why I love her work so much. If you haven’t checked out the stunning lyrics to Logan’s Forever, do it now. Enthralled has sentimental value to me, not only because of Logan’s beautiful story, but because I have special inscriptions from both Jeri and Logan. I give Bridge 5 beautiful, lingering stars that I’ll hold dear to my heart, forever.Note to self: You have a green Keeley Bros. T-shirt, but must purchase yourself an army green one!
review 2: I very much enjoyed Jeri Smith-Ready's "Shade" series and it made reading "Bridge" an obvious choice. While I enjoyed this very short story which fills in an important event that we didn't originally see on the pages of the trilogy because that series narrator Aura wasn't in it. "Bridge" tells of the meeting between dead Logan and his older brother Mickey. Mickey hasn't been the same since holding Logan as he died from an overdose in the first novel. He has held in guilt and bitterness over the tragedy. Here Logan and Mickey confront their issues through use of young woman who can communicate with Logan. This was a nice offering from Smith-Ready; she never fails to deliver a good story. For hardcore fans there a few other nice extras including lyrics to Logan's song to Aura and an interview with Mickey and Logan which brought a little levity after the serious story. The lyrical writing through me off at first but I found it very agreeable coming from Logan. It fit him well. I wish there would have been more to the actual story but really that is a compliment to the quality fo the short story. This isn't anything you have to read to enjoy the main trilogy but it is a nice addition. less
