4.5 Star Review of Brighter Than The Sun (KGI #11) by Maya Banks This is book 11 in the KGI series. Having read the previous books I was excited to see what Maya Banks had in store for Joe Kelly. The last brother holding out for bachelorhood, that is until his sister Rusty, brings home a friend who is in trouble, Zoe. This series is one of my favourites and I wasn’t disappointed. Although this book, like the others can be read as a stand-alone, I would recommend you read the previous books if possible as it makes it easier when characters from previous books appear. As we have come to expect from the KGI series, the men are tough, alpha males not afraid to charge, sometimes violent but always determined to succeed. The last thing Joe wants is love and commitment. Zoe's life has been filled with pain, complications and heartbreak and she has no intention of falling for anyone, least of all Joe Kelly. However, fate intervenes when trouble from Zoe's past puts her life in danger and it is Joe who has to step in and save her. Although Zoe is leading a life of pretense, Joe can see underneath to the true woman below the surface and becomes both intrigued and infatuated with her; it is his strength and support that allows Zoe to come into her own and bloom. The chemistry between Joe and Zoe is intense and I have a soft spot for all the Kelly clan but perhaps Joe may now be my favourite. I enjoy the fact that several of the characters from her previous books make appearances. I really do love Rusty Kelly and I hope that she eventually gets the happily ever after that she so deserves.

I love the KGI series and this one was good too. BUT having Rustys story with Joe and Zoes took away from Joe and Zoes. While I loved the story it felt that there was so much missing from the story of her background coming to life. Her abduction was suspenseful but it felt there should have been more come from Sebastian and her father. I feel that because Rustys story was included in this one Maya had to cut Joe and Zoes story short and they deserved the full story. Still looking forward to Rusty and Sean's story in the last KGI series! Still a fan and love this series!

While I enjoy the start of the series, it's starting to seem like a deja vu of all the other books. Same situations just different characters. Hopefully Rusty and Sean will have a more unique story.
