Crash & Burn by Abigail Roux
3.0
I did it. I finished this series. Although I could have read this book soon after I finished the installment before this one (which I did months ago), I decided to take a break. I've been prolonging reading this book, but I hadn't forgotten Ty and Zane. I genuinely missed the two of them, and I finally read this final journey with them.
As an installment, I thought this was a good read. It had less Ty-Zane conflict than the other books (which I was so, so grateful for. I needed to reap the benefits of them as an established couple, after all the drama that I've gone through with them). Not that it was completely mellow - we had some heavy tensions within Sidewinder. Not to mention the high stakes.
I loved every minute spent reading this one, though. I realized every scene I read was one of the last that I would be having with this cast of characters. Ty and Zane were adorable. They pulled on my heartstrings, and they treated each other with so much tenderness it warmed my heart right up. We didn't spend much time with Ty or Zane's families, but it was nice to see them again. We spent a LOT of time with all of Sidewinder and darling Liam Bell (who I genuinely wanted to throttle half the time), so that entire group a lot of attention in this installment. I love how Zane isn't quite a part of Sidewinder, but still loved and accepted by the group. It led to a lot of funny moments.
I forgot how much I loved Abigail Roux's writing. She made me laugh, had me paying attention to all the action scenes and of course, making me feel an entire spectrum of emotions. I can't believe it's over, y'all. I stumbled upon Cut & Run so long ago, and it wound itself around my heart so unexpectedly. I devoured all the books, reading one after another well into the night. I have such fond memories of this world - the mysteries, the action, the fighting, the sex, the love, the family dynamics - and it's colorful cast of people. Not just Ty and Zane (who will always claim a piece of my heart), but Deuce, Mara, Clancy and everyone else that had me rooting for them.
I am so glad I found these characters and this story. I'm grateful for how it became a place that brought me so much joy and laughter, where I could disappear and explore new scenes and fall in love with characters that moved off the page, who I felt like I knew personally. I'm glad I stayed for the long haul and spent time reading this long and rewarding series.
I'm going to miss Ty & Zane.
