Title: The Tour (Phoenix Rising, #2)


The conclusion to the Phoenix Rising series started right where The Stage ended. So luckily the cliffhanger from the end of it is resolved (partly) in the first twenty pages.

Kolton's ex Katharina, a model with a really fu*ked up brain, just can't let him go. Not even the restraining order helped. She infiltrated his home after the finale of the Stage and now is threathening to burn his apartement down.

Mia saves Riley again from the fire that started, but has to leave Kole inside. When she's outside she hears gunshots. Then Kolton is taken away in an ambulance, heavily bleeding.

Their bodyguards are taken to the police station for guestioning and nobody wants to tell her anything.

After couple of hours she finds out that Kole was stabed and one of their bodyguards killed Katharina. But she doesn't know what exactly happened and Kole makes her promise that she won't try to find what went on that night online. That she'll wait until he tells her.

Mia has to go on a tour and both Mia and Kole have to learn how to truly trust each other.

In The Tour we are held in suspense almost to the very end where we find out what really happened that day. And I didn't expect that one! I thought it will be some cliché he's hiding because of his pride. But it was something quite different.

Through out the book Mia's age finally shows and she's acting like a twenty year old qirl. Before she was way too mature and serious. Here she gets jealous (not that she didn't before, but now she even acts on it), she throws temper-tantrums, she cries a lot and she gets into a fight. Once.

The chemistry between Mia and Kole was as hot as ever. Although in The Stage it seemed even hotter. Probably 'cause the forbidden fruit tastes the best.

It was satisfying end to the series, I think that everything was resolved and the ending came at the right time. Nothing was too rushed or too slow.

But I still wouldn't mind a book from Kolton's point of view.
