Review: Brighter Than the Sun by Maya Banks

Searing action and passion ignite the latest KGI novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Darkest Before Dawn.

The Kelly Group International (KGI): A super-elite, top secret, family-run business.
Qualifications: High intelligence, rock-hard body, military background.
Mission: Hostage/kidnap victim recovery. Intelligence gathering.
Handling jobs the U.S. government can’t…

As the last unattached member of the Kelly clan, Joe is more than ready to risk life and limb on any mission he’s assigned to, but when it comes to love, he’ll keep his distance. He’s content to watch his brothers become thoroughly domesticated.

Zoe’s had nothing but heartbreak in her life, and she’s determined to start over with a completely new identity, thanks to her college friend, Rusty Kelly. But it’s the gorgeous smile and tender words of Joe Kelly that begin to weaken her resolve to never risk her heart again. And Joe will have to put everything on the line to save Zoe, when secrets of her past resurface—and threaten to tear them apart…

*Image and synopsis taken from Goodreads Author: Maya Banks Series: KGI #11 Publisher: Berkley Books Publishing Date: March 7, 2017 To buy: Amazon/Indigo/Kobo Review ♥♥♥ Joe Kelly is the lone bachelor in his family. While he is not actively looking for love, he is still envious of his siblings’ relationships. Zoe Kildare aka Stella is timid and has a low self-esteem. She is in hiding with the help of her friend Rusty Kelly. As she is surrounded by the Kelly clan, she begins to come out of her shell. Joe an Zoe’s relationship evolves really quickly from the moment they meet. After a few encounters and getting to know each other, Joe knows that she is the one. But why exactly is she hiding? The rest of the Kelly clan make an appearance as well as others from the KGI team. It is always a plus to read about these rambunctious characters so full of life! Rusty and Sean’s side story also kept me intrigued. This is the eleventh book of the KGI series. It is not necessary to read the previous books but might give a clearer insight into the whole Kelly clan and their relationships. Unfortunately, as a fan of this series, this book did not measure up to my expectations but it was still good nonetheless. It is less suspenseful than the other novels as well since it focuses more on the budding relationship between Joe and Zoe. Definitely looking forward to the next book. *Review is also posted in Goodreads Advertisements Share this:
