Disclosure: read the uncorrected ARC for review; received from NetGalley
Talia Vance outdid herself with Gold! Everything that the reader enjoyed in Silver (Bandia #1) is amplified in this highly anticipated sequel. Brianna has grown some, matured, is mastering her powers, and is no longer bonded with Blake. (The book's title gives a hint to Brianna's new love interest!) Gold takes the reader from sunny Rancho Domingo, California to chilly and magical Cath, Ireland. And Talia takes the romance to...more

I gave Gold 4 stars, but really, I think it's a 4.5 star book! This is the follow-up to Silver, which I also loved, and it's just more. More character depth, more backstory, more action. All in all, I could not put Gold down, but I didn't want the story to end.
Gold picks up some time after Silver lets off. Some things have happened to Brianna back in the US, and she's traveled to Ireland. I love Ireland, and there just aren't enough books set there. Add to the region an ancient estate, and I set...more

I was lucky enough to get an ARC from NetGalley of this book for an honest review, and I was very excited to get it. I give it 4 stars, but if I could, I'd give it 4 and a half!
Gold picks up a little after Silver ended, with Brianna going to Ireland for her own safety and trying to figure out herself.
This book has proven to be more deep and more engaging that Silver was, and even though I liked Silver, I've loved Gold much more.
Everything is more in depth here, the look at the characters, the co...more

Did you hear that? That was the sound of my mind being blown. This book was so amazing, just as good as the first! So unexpected and unpredictable. Loved it!
Whatever I expected from this book, it was torn apart within the first chapter. This book takes us in a new direction. At the end of Silver, a tenuous peace existed between Brianna and the Sons. But, it was obvious that it wasn't going to last long. In Gold, Brianna has to run from the Sons' wrath after being blamed for something she didn't...more

I AM IN LOVE WITH YOUR WRITING TALIA VANCE!
Ahem. Now that my feels are out in the open, I just want to say that this book was amazing. I loved the storyline, I loved Austin. AUSTIN! Sorry, the feels got to me again ;)
Anyway, the book opens up in Ireland and tells the continued story of Brianna as she struggles with the issues brought up by the curse between the Sons of Killian and the Bandia.
Blake why do you suck so much?! While I was reading this wonderful book, I just got so annoyed with Blake...more

Title is intriguing :)
This story was an amazing follow-up. Utterly gut-wrenching. Totally surprising. And with an absolutely killer ending. Will definitely be reading this one again and again. Loved it even more than SILVER. If I were to review this on the blog it would get my off-the-menu rating of 6 stars.
I do plan on reviewing this book when I read the finished copy when it releases next fall.
