“If anything happens to Beth, I’ll cease to breathe; the sky will fall and time will stand still, but not before those responsible for ending our lives are six feet under and en route to hell.” — Ayden Stone.
As The Story Of Us comes to a climactic conclusion, Ayden and Beth come face to face with their worst nightmare—losing the one person who means more to them than life itself.
Parted by a thousand miles across land and sea, they prepare to fight back; the clock is ticking, dark forces are edging closer and their chances of surviving are becoming less with each day that passes.
But nothing is as it seems...
They are knee deep in danger and deceit, and enemies remain too close for comfort. Will they be able to weather the storm of secrets, family feuds and broken bonds?
After a lifetime of waiting, Ayden and Beth Stone are so close to fulfilling their destiny, but will they get to live out the fairy-tale they promised each other over twenty six years ago?
A love like this comes along once in a blue moon—it’s worth fighting for.
But is it a love worth dying for?

Absolutely exceptional!
I write this review with so many thoughts and emotions going through my mind that I am just unsure of where to start.
What can I say? Wonderful, awesome, spectacular!! Yes it was full of all of those and so much more....it was full of love. Thank you for writing such a magnificent series and for keeping at such a high standard.
This would have to be the best series that I have ever read.
Once again I found myself transported to the world of Beth and Ayden Stone. The final book in this magnificent series picks up where Blue Hearts (#5) left off. Beth and Ayden are still separated as a resut of insurgents wanting to harm Beth's life. Ayden has sworn to keep the love of his life alive - no matter what it takes, but what Ayden wants doesn't always happen. Sydney has shown in this novel, just how strong a woman Beth Stone really is. She shows us how deep the love between Beth and Ayden really is.
This book, in fact the entire series, has everything you want froma book - mystery, romance, suspense, humour, friendship, criminal families.....but most of all LOVE.
This will be a series I forever come back to. It pulled at my heartstrings and made me fall in love with two characters in a way that I never have. They have grown from strength to strength which each of the six books - with this one finally giving them what they really desired - PEACE TOGETHER.
Thank you Sydney for writing two strong characters and for giving the reader a story that they will never forget. <3 <3 <3

Favorite Quotes:
" Distance can stop me from kissing you, but it can't stop me from loving you. Beth"
We never intended to build our marriage on half-truths and lies, and yet...here we are.
Assessing?" he ask, shaking me from my reverie. " No. Enjoying. Always enjoying."
" When our worlds collided, I fell in love with you all over again."
What we have is beyond time and words and sentiment. A love like ours only comes around once in a blue moon....
My Review:
How can I write a review for Blue Moon ( Story of Us - Into the Blue #3) when my feelings for this series could practically be written in a short story? I started the Story of Us journey from the beginning and the characters Ayden and Beth have an indescribable love, a love that was destined by the stars. I felt emotions from this series that took me by surprise I cried, laughed and I even gasped for a breath at one time or a couple of times and that is due to Sydney Jamesson's writing.
I could read a book in a day if I wanted too, I felt myself prolonging my reading. I knew I would be closing the book to Ayden and Beth's love story and found myself not wanting it to end. I wanted to indulge the heartfelt moments, extend the moments of suspense and amplify the moments of laughter.
In Blue Moon ( Story of Us - Into the Blue #3) we find Ayden and Beth still separated by distance, still in danger and still doing what ever they can to be reunited. Willing to risk their lives for love and if they survive this nightmare, they can prepare for a future...together. Jamesson left nothing unanswered and even made me remember how the story began and why I fell in love with this series and the characters. I may have shed more than a few tears, but they were so worth it.
If your looking for a series that is filled with suspense, humor, romance, deceit, erotic (not much in this book) and a love so strong that it's out of this world and has it's fairy-tale moments, then this series is for you. I say series because I want you to experience this story from the beginning. I wish I could write so much more but this is a story you must experience yourself. This is another 5 star must read. Thank You Sydney Jamesson for writing such a love story that comes along once in a Blue Moon.

I am in shock, to put it bluntly. I knew going into Blue Moon that there would be some twists and some more dark secrets involved. But I wasn't prepared for the surprising ending. Blue Moon is an amazing culmination of a series. It touches on all of the previous books in the series in a subtle way that makes you want to go back and read it all from the very beginning.
Blue Moon is not only a love story. It's really is a story about how love should be, feel and act...but it's gets better. It's the mystery in the fantasy that is so subtly woven through not only Blue Moon but through the series that makes one fall in love with Ayden & Beth. The emotions that Sydney Jamesson brought to not only Blue Moon but the entire TSOU/ITB series is spellbinding to me. Once I started reading I was transported to another world that I couldn't even imagine existed. This is how one finishes a love story!
Blue Moon, the final book in The Story of Us/Into The Blue series is deserving of more than 5 stars in my opinion.
I hope if you read this review you choose to do as Ayden would say "Be Bold Baby" and read not only Blue Moon but the entire series.
To Sydney-Thank you for this amazing series & being BOLD.......Bravo!

Thank you Sydney. I absolutely loved Blue Moon .I couldn't put it down. I absolutely adore Ayden and Beth. The Story of Us will forever have a place in my heart and on my shelf.

I was very fortunate to receive an ARC of Blue Moon. I have been with this amazing story from the very beginning & feel as though I know these characters personally. From the very beginning of The story of Us it has been a whirlwind of emotions & bucketloads of laughter. To say that in this final instalment I was in complete & utter mayhem with my emotions is an understatement. I laughed & cried so much but enjoyed it thoroughly. Sydney has a unique way of making you believe. That's down to research & an honest love of writing. I know that this is the end of the road but I will take this story with me. It's not one to forget easily & I won't. Ayden & Beth are such strong people that we can only hope to find that kind of love & bond they share. As has been said, this is a modern day fairytale for adults but I think Sydney created something way beyond that. When I fell Into the Blue, I didn't want to climb back out. It's a fabulous place to be. Definitely six books I will get pleasure from reading over & over again. That can't be said of many!! I thank Sydney Jamesson for this wonderful story

As I put down this novel once I had read it, I felt that I was saying goodbye to family. Ayden and Beth are a book couple that I will never forget. Their love, passion and devotion to each other is nothing short of magical.
Watching their story unfold from the beginning in 'TouchStone for Play" has been a rollercoaster ride of emotions. You feel joy, sadness, fear, anger. They have faced what no couple should ever have to deal with. And just when you think they cannot cope with anything else, the author ups the ante. But now they are protecting more than each other.
"Blue Moon" is full of drama, suspense, intrigue, passion and heat. The way it is written, you feel like you are watching a movie in your head as the scenes unfold in front of you. It was a fabulous finish to an amazing series.
Sydney Jamesson has a talent and a rare gift. She draws the reader in from page 1 and keeps them gripped. She is the female Sylvain Reynard.
I highly recommend this book and give it FIVE "Magical" stars.

Oui mon cœur est bleu...
I had the wonderful opportunity to read the ARC of #BlueMoon by Sydney Jamesson. Words, adjectives fails me ... A true Modern Fairy Tale with so much unconditional love that will stay with me foe ever. Reality with its ugliness plays its big part but also succumbs to true love.
After reading #BlueMoon I found myself in a different Universe. I am in the world created by you Sydney with Ayden, Beth and all the others around. It feels so real, I feel them surrounding me.
What a wonderful conclusion to The Story of Us. I cried, laughed and looked up to the sky ...
What you wrote is "beyond time and words" I am in awe of you
Will write more thoughts on Amazon later...
Honored to be one of the ARC

Elizabeth and Ayden’s story picks up where the last book left off. Still worlds apart, they are never so far away from each other that they cannot feel the other. With the continuous threat of impending disaster looming, Ayden will stop at nothing to protect the woman that has become his heart and soul. Even if protecting her, means walking away from her.
Beth knows that Ayden is doing what he feels is best to protect her and their family, but she also knows that Ayden is in way too deep and by allowing his heart to continue to lead him, instead of protecting her, he may be leading them to a state of impetuous foredoom that could destroy them both.
I don’t know about any of you other book lovers, but there are some series and characters that you fall so deeply and madly in love with, that when their story comes to an end, it has a profound effect on you. The journey that Ms. Jamesson has taken me on with this series is nothing short of incredible. To create such a marvelous story with some of the most astounding group of characters that I have ever had the pleasure of reading, is a truly proficient, yet rare gift to any booklover and this author has most certainly left an everlasting impression on me.
I cannot recommend enough, this is a series that will stay with you and make you fall in love with reading all over again.

ARC PROVIDED FOR AN HONEST REVIEW
Epic ending for an unforgettable love story!
The final (real tears here) book in this series is near and dear to my heart. Ayden & Beth Stone still have dangerous circumstances keeping them apart, and so many secrets yet to be exposed. As Ayden works towards bringing his wife and unborn twins safely home, Beth comes up with her own solution- but will it put them all in further danger? Add Ayden's family drama with his sister Sophia and his parents and you wonder how anyone can stay sane!
All of the rich history from the Touchstone books comes back to us and is reconciled! I adore these characters- even the supporting characters are endearing and interesting- JAKE especially!
Sydney Jamesson has left us as readers a final loving chapter in "The Story of Us" Thank you and look forward to your future works!

I have read all of the Touchstone Series and the Into the Blue Series. I have loved every last word. The story of Ayden Stone and Beth Parker Stone has been quite the ride. Each story has built on the last and enriched their story arc each time.
This last story showed exactly how far each of the them had come and how far they still needed to go. Like all the others, this story has it all. Romance, love, sex, adventure, danger, heartache... You name it, it it is there. With it being the very last book in the series, Sydney has closed up and neatly tied off all the loose ends.
I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series!

The story of Ayden and Beth is one of the most exquisite journeys I have come across in the world of romance novels. Reading Blue Moon is a sheer delight.
Beth and Ayden are still facing the dangerous threats imposed on them. Being apart doesn't help but the distance between them only intensifies the love they have for each other. They are both prepared to put their lives on the line but their ultimate goal is to have the life they were meant to live.
There is a lot going on in this final part of this remarkable story but it's written in such a smooth way that it becomes mesmerising. The threats, the angst, the deceit, the danger, the dedication and love are vividly portrayed to make the emotions feel so real. The different aspects of the story are very well pieced together and everything falls nicely into place. There are some shocking and some very pleasant revelations.
Ayden and Beth are truly exceptional. This story is extraordinary. I have enjoyed this whole journey from the very beginning despite the tears I shed. Some were happy ones though. The other thing is that I find that young Jamie has wormed his way for a place in my heart too.
I would fully recommend the unprecedented Story of Us and Into the Blue to those who like reading soul stirring novels. It's sad to see this powerful story come to an end but it's been a rewarding experience.
I received an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

June 14, 2016Wow. What can I say. I received this book as an ARC and I am hear to write my review.
This book is full of love, passion, mystery and surprises. The emotions the characters feel you feel them too. I have followed Ayden and Beth and their love for each other since the very first book. These characters have been through it all and their love still stands so strong. They have overcome so much. There love truly is a love you can only find "once in a blue moon". I am sad to see this series end but I will truly say Sydney Jamesson has given these characters the best ending. Some books leave you with questions and you feel like you were cheated out of a story or you felt the story rushed at the end something was skipped this just flowed smoothly all the way to the end without any of those feelings. Sydney Jamesson has perfectly given these characters the ending they deserve. She writes with such passion and love and you can just feel it when you read. I will always want more Ayden and Beth but I am happy and content with their ending. If you are looking for a series that has all the emotions and more this is it. A wonderful end to a wonderful series.

Sydney Jamesson never disappoints! Holding true to the characters , Ayden and Beth were given the conclusion they (and the readers) deserved.
A love story that spans not only continents, but all boundaries of time and space, Ayden and Beth were intended for the stars and found their ending in Blue Moon.
I laughed, cried and found myself bargaining with the literary gods during this read. You will not be disappointed!!!!

Amazing end to a magical love story. It is great to see the path not only the main characters take but their friends and family. Love how justice is served and even the dead have their justice. The connection of Beth and Ayden is true story book material. Loved the ride and sad to see the series end. Also loved to see Beth's character grow and how strong she became. It is hard for men to not be our white knights but sometimes we like to be the one saving them!!!!

Oh Sydney Jamesson you are one amazing writer! I feel very privileged to have been gifted an ARC of this epic conclusion to one of my favourite series because it was just that!! EPIC!!
Blue Moon picks up where the last book leaves us wondering what will happen next as Ayden and Beth are having to fight to keep their love strong as forces threaten to tear them apart.
Just like the previous novels in this series, I was captivated from the first chapter and could not put it down. Her talented writing had me on the edge of my seat as it took me on an emotional roller coaster of a ride as it built toward it's suspenseful ending. It was real nail biting stuff.
This series has it all mystery, drama, suspense, romance and amazing characters that have you falling in love with them over and over again.
Sydney Jamesson does not disappoint in this fantastic end to a fantastic series.
Well done :)!!

Fantabulous!
Another spellbinding book from Sydney where she absolutely cast a spell and had me hooked! Breathtakingly good with Ayden and Beth once again keeping us all enthralled. This is a series of books that I will treasure and read over and over again. Gutted and feeling as if I'm grieving now the series is over. Can't wait to see what Sydney will come up with next. Highly recommended. Love Ayden and Beth.

Wow just wow is all I can say. Sydney has done it again just when I thought the ending to the story of us couldn't get any better than what it has been you blew me away, I cried and was scared as than was so happy, but my suspicions were right, but I won't give that away. Thank you Sydney for making me believe in true love and I'm looking forward to what comes next.

We get the final chapter in the Story of Us following the lives of Ayden and Elisabeth Stone. It has been a magical six parts to their story. Full of suspense, mystery and a very passionate love. And what a thrilling story it has been.
As have all of them, this book included, has been inspired by music and while I have the radio gently playing in the background, strangely The Power of Love is playing by Gabrielle Aplin and how apt when writing a review for such a deep love story.
Ayden and Beth have been in grave danger from an unhappy source since time beyond memory. He had been involved in a sting operation, and although their love can never separate them, Beth has been sent away for her own safety. Ayden will go to great lengths to save his Beth and their unborn children even if that meant sacrificing himself to keep them from harm.
“You’ve made every wish I ever had come true, Ayden. This is beyond wonderful. To think that our children can grow up here in this magical place… I can’t believe it.”
This last segment rounds off a wonderful story told exquisitely well by Sydney. Her storytelling techniques drew me in from the very first page of this series right up until the last one. Her style is profound, balanced and I would even go to the great length of saying, poetic. There is no doubt whatsoever that her dab hand in penmanship helped me visualise the muse. It was as if I was with them, willing for all the evil to become banished and for the pair to live out their fairy-tale with a happy ever after. But it’s not going to be an easy feat to get to their destination in life. I was on a roller-coaster; mesmerised and invested in the evil insurgents to get their comeuppance and let them live in peace.
“Assessing?”
“No. Enjoying. Always enjoying.”
I’ve chosen these quotes because they have always been my favourites throughout their magical romance. How they are ‘always enjoying’ each other at every-whither; how they saved each other along the way, literally enchanted me and made this read so exceptional. I watched Beth grow stronger from the beginning to the end and was delighted to see that in turn, she became the protector of Ayden. Despite the fact that it had been the other way around, this showed me the depth of their relationship and their true feelings for each other.
I don't want to give too much away but just to reiterate The story of Us, it is a love story unlike any other. I am a huge fan of Sydney and although it is sad to say goodbye to the Stones which I have learnt to adore, we get closure in their story. I gave five stars because it was gripping, exciting and exceedingly hot and steamy.

The Story of Us comes to is conclusion with Blue Moon. Sydney Jamesson doesn't beat around the bush and throws you in at the deep end continuing the story where it left off in Blue Hearts. Right from the first page you are back into Beth and Ayden's story. There's no breathing room, no easing you in.
If you've read the previous 5 books you'll know that Beth is floating around the Mediterranean on a big boat with a crew of ex military men acting as staff. Its Ayden's way of protecting her but who's protecting him?
Beth and Ayden though apart are still very much in love and Blue Moon tells the story of how they find out who is behind the threat to their safety and making sure justice is served. There are lots of people it could be and although it's not much of a shock when the culprit is revealed, getting to that point is full of twists and turns. There were many things that needed to be resolved in this book, not least was why Ayden's birth mother left him behind and you will be pleased to know all these lose ends are tied up.
The story of Beth & Ayden from when they were children as Frannie & Saphir through to them meeting years later, falling in love, and finally living their happily ever after, is one of my all time favourite book series ever and I'll definitely miss these two.

This series has been so much more than a 5* read. I can't put into words explicitly enough the emotions I went through reading this series. Blue Moon is the final part in the Touchstone saga that has taken me on a roller coaster of emotions and left me with yet another massive book hangover!!
This book starts off with Beth determined to take matters in to her own hands and end her exile so she can be reunited with the one person she loves more than life itself. I have once again laughed, cried held my breath on so many occasions. This is a beautiful love story that started when Ayden was just 10 years old and living in care when he bet Beth and they had a make believe wedding and a promise to marry her for real.
There have been so many twists and turns throughout this series and everyone single one of them was answered in this final part. The author left no stone unturned (pardon the pun)! This is a book that will be forever in my heart. It's beautifully written, Ms Jamesson has a beautiful style of writing that captivated me right from the very first page of the very first book. If you like erotic romance, suspense, mystery, angst, humour, corruption, strong characters, a hot sexy alpha billionaire & HEAs then this book is definitely for you.
I'm looking forward to future books by this author. Bravo Sydney for such a captivating story.

I have been a HUGE fan of Sydney Jamesson since I was captivated by her ability to take me to another world with TouchStone for Play, and Blue Moon did not disappoint.
I have laughed, cried, gasped and shrieked with Ayden and Beth from the very beginning, and now I am heartbroken that their fairytale has come to an end.
Blue Moon itself is everything you wish for the characters and more... Sydney never leads a straightforward path with her stunning manner of writing, and Blue Moon is no exception, taking me on an emotional rollercoaster which left me both exhausted and devastated, yet ecstatic at the same time.
This series is one that has impacted on my heart and soul, as I hoped and willed Ayden & Beth to find their happily ever after... I will not give the game away, but I will say that this entire series is one never to be forgotten... Bravo!

What a beautiful, well written book. I have read all the books in this series and I can truly say I was never disappointed. Blue Moon takes us on an epic love journey that some of us can only dream of and wish for. Hats off to Ms SJ for tying up all the loose ends and bringing this amazing journey to an awesome ending. I will definitely put this series on my re-read shelf.

I loved it!!! It was a bittersweet reading ... I wanted to read faster to see what happened.... but I didn't want it to end
June 23, 2016
I'M SO SAD THAT THIS IS THE END !
But very glad that i stumbled on this incredibly brilliant
series by accident and decided to purchase it !
What a journey it has been for Beth and Ayden..
They are by far in my top three favorite main characters!
Their story is so amazing i absolutely devoured this book.
I wanted to slow down and savour it since i knew it was
the conclusion but there was just so many good parts that i continued until there were no more pages to read.
You have to read it yourself to experience and understand my overdramatic review.
I wish to know more about how Jake found love..he needs more book pages dedicated to him.
He is my #1 best friend/brother/supporting character in any books I've read so far HANDS DOWN!
Also, Jamie needs more book pages. He, along with Bernie, Lester, and the Athena Crew-members were all amazing in this story. They all fit perfectly and all connected with the main characters and made the story complete.
The only other thing i wonder about is what happened to that poor Doctor..
he is mentioned little in this book, but that's okay..
I love love love this beautiful story of Ayden/Saffir & Beth/Frances
TOTALLY RECOMMENDED to anyone who loves reading Romance genre.
Sydney Jamesson has written a genius story with lots of detail, plot twists, love, affection,
and now i need to buy the ALL 6 books in paperback so i can keep them forever, no offense to the kindle...

AMAZING
I decided to re-read the the entire series before enjoying Blue Moon.OMG, what a great love story.Seeing what happened to Ayden and Beth, watching his growth as a person.it was just so , it's hard to put into words, but just so satisfying. The heart and soul of the story was mesmerizing. Having the touch of paranormal, was enough to show the guardian angel who fell in love with Beth and allow her to live and love her life. But the conclusion of Blue Moon was the perfect ending. Seeing Ayden doing the right thing in court, helping people(Jamie) broadening his whole family, finding his roots,, and just living his life so fully with Beth and his children.Going through the birth, seeing the children grow, their home in France, Jake and Sophia, it included included everything, giving a sweet and wonderful conclusion that completed the story of US. Thank you, thank you for making this a beautiful story a part of your readers lives. It was well written, and shows that you can have a whole story, and concluded ,even after 6 books., and give your readers a thoughtful conclusion.

Well they say that all good things must come to an end and Ayden and Beth have definitely been a good thing. This sixth novel of Ayden and Beth's journey was a beautiful way to end their story. We have laughed and cried with them through five books and this last book wraps up all of the loose ends of their story and gives them the happily every after they so deserve. I have adored these characters throughout the books and it's sad to say goodbye. If you want a series that will stay with you long after you are done turning the pages, The Story of Us and the Into the Blue series are definitely for you. Thank you Sydney for giving us such endearing characters. I know they will be with me always. And of course if you decided to do another book several years down the line - a where are they now type book - you know I'd be all over that. What a great ending to a great series.
