Brighter Than the Sun (Cosmic Love #2) by Briana Pacheco

🌟🌟🌟🌓 out of 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Synopsis:
I loved love. Some might even say I was obsessed with it. I was the girl who had a fake wedding when I was six and subscribed to bridal magazines by sixteen. My happily ever was all I thought about.

So the fact that I had a crush on my brother’s best friend--a guy who notoriously doesn’t do relationships--was heartbreak in the making. I was forced to do the only thing I could--ignore my feelings and move on.

Years later, after countless failed relationships, my shy heart had slowly stepped away from its fanciful ideas of love. It was going smoothly until the guy who didn’t do relationships suddenly wanted to try having one…with me. It didn’t take long before I gave in. He was exactly how I imagined, and everything I'd dreamed about: goofy, smart, good with animals, and kind.

Still, my past break-ups were never far from my mind. I'd always crushed hard and fell fast, and no one ever caught me. But the more time we spent together, the more I started to see a future with him. And what’s shocking was that he saw the same thing as me.

He’s my forever.
I’m his.
This is our love story.

*Received this ARC in exchange for an honest review*

Brighter Than the Sun is still a solid book which is due to Briana Pacheco's ability to weave an amazing story. It may not be my new favorite of her books but it solidified its place in third place of the books I have read from her. 

I love Mackenzie but this book was hard for me to connect with. I think that it was because it has a different feel and tone to it than A Sky Full of Secrets and Let Her Go. There is a lot less angst and it seems to be a lighter story focused more on the love that develops between Blake and Mackenzie. It was too sweet for me and I found that I didn't really like Blake. I think that a lot of readers will find her to be sweet and likable but I couldn't connect with her. I would have liked someone more grounded and less in love with love. 

I loved any part of the book where I got to be in Mac's head. He had an interesting point of view that was refreshing and fun. I knew that I would feel that way because I have loved him since A Sky Full of Secrets. I'm not going to lie...I was secretly a little disappointed that he didn't end up with Luna but Phoenix is amazing. It was exciting to learn more about his home life growing up. I loved getting to meet his parents! His relationship with his father melted my heart and made me love Mackenzie more! I also loved seeing him interact with the animals at the shelter and the children at his job. 

Brighter Than the Sun will be 99c for release day only and is in Kindle Unlimited.
