Rae is so done with dating Ryker. At the start of the book, we find out that Ryker's father had passed away. Rae attends the funeral because she was close with Ryker'south father which leads to Ryker's surprise to her being there. He tries to talk to her but she but says "Lamentable for your loss" and walks away. Which is sad but all their relationship was seemed to be about sexual practice. Ryker blew his take chances.
Rae's blood brother, Rex is proving to exist something of a sexual guide for Rae's friend Kayden. She is a tranquility girl and is someone who doesn't dressed to attract attending. Thing is, she is in love with Rex and is trying to get his attending. They start seeing each other on the downward low without their friends knowing and things seem ok until Rae almost catches them in the human activity then Rex wants to interruption things off. When he does , Kayden get super depressed and starts sleeping around to prove something to Rex..what I have no clue just in the meantime, we see Rex start to get a clue. What an idiot, he needed to have gotten a clue a lot sooner.
So nosotros have Zeke who is Rex's best friend since they were very trivial, he is in dear with Rae. He starts to see someone else. Rex knows his sister is in love with Zeke and wonders if he should tell Zeke and finally opens his mouth and lets him know how Rae feels about him . Zeke is still in love with Rae although at present he's in a relationship with someone—what a tangled web. Will Rae & Zeke be able to make a relationship when he is seeing someone else, Will Zeke end his other relationship for Rae? Volition Rex & Kayden be able to find their way dorsum to each other afterwards all that has happened? OR (gasp) Or volition Rae go back to Ryker??
There is and so much angst, passion, anger, loss, betrayal, 2nd chances and dear in this book. I loved the bandage of characters and look frontwards to volume four in this serial to find out what happens next.
My rating: 4.7 stars ****

This is my showtime fourth dimension reading a series by E.L. Todd, and though I love the kickoff three books, I'm a little hesitant about continuing the serial. I saw where her Forever and Ever series is 47 books long. At $iv.99 a book that'due south expensive. I hope the Ray serial isn't as long.

I did receive Ray of Hope as a free ARC Copy in exchange for an honest review.This is the 3rd book in the series.
Rae is done with dating Ryker. At the beginning of the book, we detect out that Ryker's father had passed away. As Rae was very close with him she attends the funeral. Ryker is very surprised to see her. Ryker tries to talk with her but she but tells him so sad for your loss. Which was a good move on her part. All they had in the relationship is sex. Sexual practice, sexual activity and more sex. He never opened upwards to her at all. I think he is hiding something from her.
Rae's brother, Male monarch is actually a sex guide to i of their friends, Kayden. Kayden works in the library and is a mousy quite girl. She seems like she would be a knock out and would exist able to go whatsoever guy she wants. However, she's in to King. She tells King that she isn't that experienced in dating or existence with men and she wants him to teach her. However, Kayden does similar Rex. They are seeing each other without the other friends knowing. Rae catches them but they both brand upwards something and so she doesn't suspect anything. Rex thinks the best matter to do is interruption things off with Kayden, equally he doesn't want just a sex relationship. Once he breaks things off Kayden goes into a downward spiral. Kayden is sleeping around with most of the men in Seattle, one night at a time to get Rex out of her system. Kayden is still in love with King. Male monarch does accept feelings for Kayden but doesn't know what to do nigh these feelings.
Zeke who is Male monarch's best friend since they were v is in love with Rae. Zeke starts seeing someone also. Rex tells Zeke that Rae is in dear with him and thinks about him all the time. Zeke is yet in love with Rae although at present he's in a relationship with someone, that he idea could take her place. Zeke seems to be in love with her but, he does have strong feelings for Rae.
Will Rae & Zeke exist able to make a relationship into something more? Will Male monarch & Kayden be able to proceed their relationship a secret? Will Zeke break upward with the girlfriend to exist with Rae finally? Or will Rae go back to Ryker??
...moreThe merely relationship that makes sense is Kayden and Rex. I was glad that things worked out. I wish more than time was spent on them considering Zeke is wearisome to me. Bring back Ryker, dammit. This is not right. If the author would have left this volume as the decision, I remember it would have been better, only instead there is a 4th installment. Now I am depressed because, at present, I accept to wait. Why release 3 of the books and wait until a afterward date to release the 4th ane.? If I did non beloved my hair so much, I would pull it out. ! Grrrrr.! I am dying of anticipation :(

Can I say I have this huge smiling on my face while reading it on my style to work? The feeling of thwarting left when I read it. Because, E.50. Todd, you did it dandy. I got it now, later reading information technology, everything makes sense.
I have to remind y'all that these books aren't standalones. Well in that one, time passed by, and Rae is definitely standing on her own, cheers to her friends and family.
I liked how the stories were kinda entwined and that one proved how all the stories collided for the best.
I don't desire to reveal much, but let's just say that sometimes you need someone to make you lot realize all the things yous tin miss if yous don't intendance enough attending, of all the missed opportunities.
Because Rae and her tribe are in that situation, and altogether, and being all nosy like friends who really cared for each other, y'all know that everything isn't going to be restful. Ray of Dearest was definitely more feeling oriented, focused on that part where all the master characters were most re evaluating their lives, with all these news information coming their way.
I really liked that one, even if their drove me a little crazy at times. All this mess of unsaid things and missed connections … just they all establish a mode!
Keen series, fun, sweetness, genuine and endearing characters, I loved following their journey. And I definitely desire more. And I'thousand on a binge read for sure!
The serial is supposed to be a romantic comedy but I tin't say that'south the case for all the books, not all of them I found to take a comedy anywhere nearly it, book one for example. So why did I continue to read the serial well honestly because I was on the ARC (advance readers copy) list. I read other books past E.Fifty todd and I can tell you 1 thing she seem to follow the same format for her characters, they are youthful early 20's and somehow live v
This a review for the entire serial. all 7 books.The serial is supposed to be a romantic one-act simply I tin can't say that'south the instance for all the books, non all of them I found to take a comedy anywhere near it, volume one for example. Then why did I go on to read the serial well honestly because I was on the ARC (advance readers copy) list. I read other books by E.L todd and I can tell you one thing she seem to follow the aforementioned format for her characters, they are youthful early on 20's and somehow live very soap opera lives.
Rea , oh Rea….she does what every girl should never do she falls not but the bad boy but her brothers all-time friend also in 1 series. Similar I said book 1-5 or Light – Middle focus on the relationship between Rea, Ryker and Zeke. While the characters were like shooting fish in a barrel sometimes I constitute myself questioning their intelligence. While the books were good and I kept reading, You could easily tell what was going to happen earlier it happened. So the twists through that series actually in fact were not really a twist but still written well plenty that I nevertheless read on. But by the time you reach book 4 it goes from being on a skilful streak down to plop. Volume 4 was just completely mind-boggling and non in a practiced way at all. The human relationship that formed with Rea and Ryker was hot and steamy. Simply then Zeke happens and information technology cruel apartment for me. It just wasn't there, you know what mean. That sparks. I didn't feel it. I didn't even feel it towards the end. I was so team Ryker and E.L. Todd was then set on Zeke and Rea.
There is a lot of dorsum and fourths in these books, like all of them you'll find it happening at least once in every book. Throughout the book you don't find your usual run of the manufacturing plant issues for young adult. Rea is scientist, Rex ( her brother also the comedic aire in the volume) won the lotto and bought a crappy bowling aisle, Ryker (guy number) was left his male parent'south visitor and is now Rea's dominate and Rex's friend, Zeke (guy number 2) is a freaking medico and Male monarch's best friend, Kayden and Jessie are the best friends of Rea.

...more thanNosotros spend much of this book watching Rae get past her feeling
So, i call back that the summary doesn't do this story justice but i gauge that's the point of reading a book. What we have hither in this third installment is the evolution of Rae. and Ryker'southward human relationship in one case she admits how she feels. Mind yous, she only shared how she felt to 1) be true to herself and 2) considering she was certain that he felt the same. Anybody thought then. but i think that he'due south just likewise scared and as a result, they're dunzo.Nosotros spend much of this volume watching Rae get by her feelings for Ryker, and figure out what'south next for her. She learns about the manner that Zeke felt about her for years and that makes a whole net path of complexity lay itself in front of her.
Add to that story line, we get to encounter things evolve for all the other characters. (well most). Zeke is in this great relationship with a girl name Rochelle and while they've moved fast, it seems similar a great i. Even with how we know he feels/felt almost Rae, he'due south. all the same pushing forward and wants to have things to the side by side level. We hear him tell Male monarch near his plans to suggest to Rochelle, and Rex nevertheless has his reservations since he knows that his friend can't be over Rae and so fast, but equally a adept friend, he knows he can't pace on toes here. So we lookout man that 1 play out.
Then there's King and Kayden. We see what their friendship tin can evolve to, and friends with benefits becomes their affair. It's non surprising at all knowing how nosotros saw Kayden feel nigh Rex in the last book. He doesn't pick up on that and actually simply think that he hits the jackpot. When he cuts things off though, we see this story take a depressing turn,
The only character that we don't dive as well deeply in with is Jessie and i'grand not sure why. While she's the fifth wheel hither, she's got all the potential in the globe to have a corking story line so i really. hope that's coming presently.
This story takes us on a roller coaster of emotions – happy deplorable. Depressed, elated, romantic and ecstatic. All mixed with the right layers of naive/basic heat and passion. I tin can't wait to see what comes adjacent and then i'm off to book iv.
...moreI love to see a heroine who is strong enough that she doesn't let herself dice after a break-up, no matter how much she loves the guy she was with. That is what Rae is... a strong heroine who relies on her friends and shows she doesn't demand a man to exist happy. She was able to get over her heartbreak subsequently the terminate of her relationship with R
I take to admit that even though I enjoyed this volume more than than the previous two, I'k non so sure that I'm happy with the way things turned out. Let me explain...I love to see a heroine who is potent enough that she doesn't let herself die after a interruption-up, no matter how much she loves the guy she was with. That is what Rae is... a strong heroine who relies on her friends and shows she doesn't need a man to be happy. She was able to get over her heartbreak after the end of her relationship with Ryker and I was happy for that. BUT...she said he was the love of her life, her feelings for him were stronger than she had e'er had before and she pictured a futurity with him...withal, it took her merely three months to completely go over him and feel zilch one time she saw him again...that didn't make sense to me...
She started to have romantic feelings for Zeke, her best friend since forever and although I love him, I'thou not so certain that I pictured them together. I felt in the previous book that he was moving besides chop-chop, and like Rex, I had a feeling he was on the rebound with Rochelle, only I don't know that I wanted him to break up with her.
I was glad to meet Male monarch get his head out of his behind and acknowledge his feelings for Kayden. He was e'er and then clueless when it came to her and seeing him get a dose of what he made her feel was very entertaining.
I was thinking this would be a 3 volume serial and I'm not sure how I feel to know at that place is at to the lowest degree one more than book. I want to see the problems resolved, nevertheless I take a feeling that we have not seen the final of Ryker. Just when Rae and Zeke seem to accept 'found' each other, I sense that turmoil is still ahead.
I love Jessie. She is and then open and not afraid to speak her mind. I want her to detect her HEA.
It will be interesting to see what else is in store for this group.

I think the author missed an opportunity to turn this series into a really good read. There were bug that could have been explored with the female atomic number 82 character...Rae...with her mom's suicide and she could take gone into Ryker's past as well. I retrieve that is truly what ruined the series for me. I felt Ryker was curt inverse in all of this.

I am not a fan of these books at all. I did read 5 of them earlier reviewing...wish I didn't. I really thought book five would unleash the deeper details...didn't happen. Don't get sucked into this nonsense...move on.
Damn, this series is excellent! Told from the perspective of blood brother and sister Rae and Rex as they each navigate their feelings for their two respective close friends, Zeke and Rae.

Rae was the main graphic symbol and unfortunately I was non a fan. To me, she came off as a know-it-all who did no wrong. I actually liked Ryker more than any of them.
