Darkmist
Brianna Rafferty has come to embrace her extraordinary magical powers and what it means to be a clàr silte. Trouble is, not everyone is thrilled to have another witch encroaching on their territory.
One night Brianna finds herself at the wrong college party and bumps elbows with a girl who has made it her personal vendetta to make Brianna’s life a living hell. Amara Gabris is a witch with envious hair, a bad attitude, and the power to raise the dead.
Even though Brianna is uncertain about college—one thing is becoming painfully clear—witches are everywhere.

As much as I liked the series, I felt that this Novella left a lot to be desired. It missed the mark on editing/proofreading by far, but, even beyond that it felt rushed and therefore missing any real content. This series has always been one of my favorites just as the Raven series is as well. I'd love to see a crossover with Piper/Zayne and Bri/Gavin meeting up in college!!

**********Contains Spoilers**********
I liked this novella. I liked getting more of Bri and Gavin and still think they’re great together. All I can say is that man Bri is a complete magnet for danger, it even finds her when she’s not even looking. Wow, Amara was a complete b*tch, I suppose if necromancy was your power which is dark in nature anyway it would probably warp you if you let it but then if your boyfriend d*ed and your powers couldn’t bring him back to life you’d go to the ends of the earth to try and find the someone with enough power to do what you couldn’t but it’s completely not natural as he wouldn’t be the person you love. I’d recommend this book, series and author to everyone.

This was a short but good story. It was nice getting to read more about Bri and Gaven and I loved that Austin was at the college. I will say I missed Sophie and I wish there had been a story about Bri learning new spells and getting to know more about the other characters magic, like Gavins father and mother, I don’t want this to be the end. It was interesting meeting Amara and what she could do and seeing Bri in more control then before. I am a little surprised that we never learned what happened to Lukas, maybe another book some time?

Darkmist: Novella (Luminescence Book 4)
I was so happy to find out there was a 4th book/novella , and I found out by accident when looking for another series to read after I stumbled upon this series by accident. Which I was so happy for because I absolutely loved it...
I only wished it was longer , and we saw how everyone else was doing from Tori, her aunt, Sophie, and Jared.
Definitely would recommend the series.

Love
Loved reading this novella about Bri and Gavin's encounter at college. Not a pleasant on either! Not everyday you meet a witch intent on stealing you're power to bring someone back to life lol!
I wish there were more stories of Bri and Gavin to fall into! I love them together!

Probably the best in the series. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this series, but it was okay. Good for not knowing what I was getting into reading, but a let down considering I’ve wanted to read some of her other books. I like to do so in order of writings and maybe her books improved over time? I may try another of her series when a lack of something better to read comes my way again.

I really enjoyed reading this novella. Bri and Gavin are attempting college. Little do they know, there are other witches already on campus, some that are not model citizens. I'd recommend this novella for fans of the Luminescence series that enjoy YA PNR with witches.

Wasn't bad but Wasn't great either
This series left alot to be desired it had great potential that just didn't go anywhere and then just ended it also needs to be properly edited there are alot of grammar errors throughout this series

loved it
I loved that small short story it gave Gavin and her closure, we were able to see what happened to her after the books.. I loved it I will be reading her other books as well.

Awesome
Great book couldn't stop reading it until I was done. And hope there's another book coming soon because I wasn't ready for the series to be over.

A nice way to wrap things up
I loved getting a peak at college life for Bri & Gavin (& Austin too). It was like a sweet treat after the main course.

i honestly didn't see the point of this. It left me feeling like why did i bother. If gave me no new insight into Bri's life. she went to college, she pissed off a witch and then it was over....

Too short
I think this is a good series if your pressed for time. The books aren't really that long. Things are kind of rushed

Too short for a higher star rating. It was good, I think it should have been longer or even a new trilogy that continues Bri's and Gavin's story.

Short story to read. The other books could have been this quick and would have been better. The other books dragged on.
