What this installment lacks in snark and humor, it makes up for in Reyes revelations. Fans of the series know how mysterious Reyes has been not only with Charley, but us as well. This short pulls back the veil a bit on the man behind the ...more

As one of those "x.5" books that falls in-between the main series books, "Brighter Than the Sun" slots neatly between Book 8, after Charley conquers the hellhounds and learns that Earl Walker is still alive, and Book 9, when she wakes up with amnesia. If you have no earthly idea what I'm talking about, it's best to go back and start at Book 1. Charley Davidson's is certainly not a series to be taken out of order. Here, we have a recap of the first eight books, but taken entirely from Reyes' poin

I'm two books behind in the series so not sure if the major nugget casually dropped in these pages has already happened.

This novella did not have the same lighthearted humor typically found in a Charley Davidson book. However, Reyes’ story is not lighthearted. That being said, I really enjoyed hearing Reyes’ story from his point of view, especially his interactions with Charley or “Dutch.” This book adds another layer onto the amazing character that is Reyes Alexander Farrow.
Meh. I like a little mystery.
