Excellent story! Things are coming together. Blue and Dorian carry a bit of identity baggage. Life should be fun learning your self and your world, growing as you adjust and get comfortable. Blue and Dorian, individually faced extra challenges individually that were sometimes hindered by others and environment. They connect and fill the holes. You spend your reading time pulling for Blue and Dorian, excited for their successes and anxious during their challenges. Can they overcome the 'help'? Will those, less helpful get their comeuppance? Can Blue and Dorian find their inner strength? Great story. Nice to reconnect with previous characters and see how they grow. There is a lot going on in the community. Well done! I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Feeling a bit Blue...
Honestly a good read the story flows nicely and the plot isn't to hard to follow for what it's worth a decent way to kill some time as far as entries in this series goes it's probably my favourite at this moment and if I'm recommending any of them while reading them in sequential order is preferred this would probably be a good entry point if you'd like a one and done situation while it expands in the lore and world building it doesn'tbog down the story with unnecessary details or fluff everything flows concisely add to the the main characters have distinct personalities that mesh well overall it's a decent read and worth a glance if this is your particular niche

This is the story of Blue and Darian, it is the 6th book in the Fire Ridge Pride series. Please read the trigger warnings. I would suggest that you read the books in order. With every book that comes out in this series, it gets better and better. The two are definitely my favourite in the series. You just can't help falling in love with them. It is wonderfully complex with nice twists that keeps you reading well past your bedtime. Definitely recommended
I received this book as an Arc and I am happily reviewing it voluntarily.

I couldn't wait, so I bought the paperback. Yes, this series is that good, and now I have all 6. This reminds me of a TV show. The world builds from book to book, and the romance is well balanced with the plot. Love the magic!
Blue and Dorian are really good together. Talk about fighting for your mate! Lena is driving me nuts.
I wanna know what happened to Grayson. They had to do something with him. Cannot wait for the next book!

great book
There were a lot of unfair frustrating moments in this book with Lena having Lou’s ear and making blues life as miserable as she could for what seemed like no reason at all and Dorian and blue wanting each other but not being able to make it happen I’m ready for the next book to see what happens next and things are a lot easier to understand when you remember everyone’s names from the beginning of the series even if they’re only mentioned in passing

This continues to be an excellent series and with each book, the characters and the world building feel deeper and more complex. Here, two characters who are anxious about certain things and feel like misfits find each other and fight all opposition to be together. There are some great villains here.

I liked this but it confuse me
This could be amazing however I still don't get how world works. The romance between blue and dorian was cute,
I've also just realised it's a 6th book in a series which is probably why I was so confused so bumped back up to four stars and I will read the rest.

This Series Makes You Think
This is definitely a series where you have to pay attention to what's going on but its worth it. There is a lot to uncover and it's all very interesting. I can't wait for the next book.
I received an ARC and this is my unbiased opinion

This was the first book I've read by this author and in this series, and I will definitely be going back to read from the beginning. It has wonderful characters and a great storyline that will have you enthralled from start to finish.

Hand-Me-Down Boys and Amethyst girls
Well Jae you took me on another wild ride. I reread Riot's book before diving in to this one. I like the reminder of who everyone is and their part in the each other's lives. I always uncover something new on a reread and I did this time as well.
I loved the progression through the years that this book took. I've loved Blue from the beginning of this series and I'm glad he's found Dorian, I love that they are 'the same'.
Lena, don't get me started on her, she needs killin'.
This series is the best, I love all the rereads I've done. This book was the longest so far and I didn't mind it a bit... I couldn't put it down once I started. I read Riot and Blue back to back (I finished at midnight).
Keep up the writing Jae, I'm anxiously awaiting the next book!!!
