Number-one New York Times, USA Today, and internationally best-selling author Jennifer L. Armentrout returns to the world of the Lux with this steamy, shocking third installment of the Origin series that will leave listeners reeling.

He is the darkest star.

She is the burning shadow.

And together, they will bring about the brightest night.

Less than a year ago, Evelyn Dasher was a normal girl, living a safe, rather unremarkable life - a life that was a total lie. Now she's learned the truth about who she was and what she is.

Hidden within Zone 3, she knows that if she loses control of her dangerous abilities again, she not only puts everyone in the secret community at risk, but also the beautiful, deadly inhuman Luc. He will do anything to keep her safe. Lie. Barter. Beg. Kill.

But there are truths that not even Luc can prepare for, and as Evie's abilities evolve, the consequences of everything he's done turn devastating.

Luc is stepping into the darkness. But Evie might already be lost to the shadows.

Title: My mind is blown!!
Review: The Brightest Night was mind blowing. There. I said it. There is so much emotion in this book that it’s hard to shuffle through them all as I close the book. Obviously let’s start with: THAT ENDING, JEN!!!! I had a few theories as I read as to what would happen but that is NOT where I thought it was going!We pick up right where Jen left us: with our jaws on the ground with the knowledge that Jason Dasher is alive. ALIVE. And let me say, since I’ve read The Burning Shadow twice and the Lux series (where he originated from) a few times....HOW CAN HE BE BACK!? And I totally get how (no spoilers) but like just when you thought a certain group wasn’t going to come back....But while hidden away in Zone 3 the gang is forced with a new challenge, as if they didn’t have enough on their plate with the flu circulating and the Daedalus being back: they need to get Evie’s abilities under control. Which is hard because the only time her abilities came to life was with a threat.Jen, as always, kills it with her characters and their development. Evie has evolved in so many ways into the strong, independent, caring, and butt kicking heroine that we know her as throughout the book. Luc is well....Luc. Fierce. Protective. Cocky. Full of hilarious one liners. Luc and Evie compliment each other in all the best ways—so it was even more exciting to watch them continue to grow.So, dear readers, buckle up because this book goes from 0-100 within a few pages. Worlds collide in this amazing 3rd installment that I still don’t fully understand what just happened in that book.Amazing job, JLA!! 5/5

Title: disappointed
Review: I really didn’t like the ending. I was shocked that it didn’t have a happy ending. I think because I thought they would get the sergeant and the center.

Title: A zillion stars
Review: “Love took root with his cheesy, horrible pickup lines and silly gifts that really weren’t gifts at all. Love grew each time he looked at me like I was the most precious and cherished being in the entire universe. Love spread with his enduring patience that came with no ties or stimulations. He was there for me, always had been, with no expectation that I would feel anything for him. And I fell in love with him all over again when I realized that when he sincerely believed I’d never return to him, he still hadn’t stopped loving me.”The Brightest Night is the third book of the Origin series by Jennifer L. Armentrout. It picks up where The Burning Shadow left off, and you should definitely read the other books of the series before reading this one. Luc and Evie are hiding from the government in Zone 3. Evie knows that if she doesn’t learn to control the power in her she could become a danger to everyone around her. Luc promises to help her and not let her get out of control, but there are some risks though that neither of them could be prepared for.I am so in love with this alien world that Jennifer L. Armentrout has created. I think I may love this spin off series even more than the Lux series where it all started. Luc is just so intense and amazing.“’No.’ He placed the tips of his fingers to my cheek. ‘I told you that I love you, that I would always love you, no matter what, once before.’ His throat worked on a swallow, and when he spoke, his voice was thick. ‘I told you that the only time I ever said goodbye to you.’His face blurred. ‘And what did I say?’‘You said, ‘I know.’”And Evie meets him there in his intensity and cheesiness. She sees his alpha side and appreciates it but doesn’t let it take her down. I can’t wait to see what happens next. Major cliff hanger warning, and I usually count off for that, but I couldn’t on this one. It’s just too good, and honestly it’s kind of this author’s MO to have a cliffhanger ending, so I had prepared myself. A zillion stars for this book.“‘I’m not going to lose you. You’re sure as hell not going to lose me.’My breath caught. ‘Good.’‘Like, ever, Peaches.’‘I’m okay with that.’‘You’re stuck with me,’ he went on. ‘You’re paper and I’m glue. We go together—‘‘Like cheese and bread?’‘That’s my girl.’ He leaned his mouth to mine—“

Title: FANFREAKINGTASTIC addition to the series!
Review: Oh holy alien babies!! This book was... EVERYTHING!!! No joke! There was action, romance, humor, angst, heartache, and oh so many sexy times it made my black heart happy!!Evie really begins to come into her own in this book. After what happened in book 2, and something that happens in book 3, Luc made sure she would not be helpless ever. He helped her through each step. I love how caring she is towards everyone, even though they are not being very welcoming. Shows her true character that she's being the bigger person.Luc...OH! EM! GEE!!!! I didn't think I could love him more, but Jen managed to make me do so! He was his sweet, protective, witty, cheesy pickup line self, but also SO MUCH MORE!!! I loved his ruthlessness and patience where Evie was concerned. Those sexy times I mentioned above? Whoa! The dude's got game. HAWT!!!Seeing all of our fave characters from the Lux series truly makes me so happy also! I love how Jen kept their characters true to themselves. One word: Daemon.Now the ending?! CHEESE AND CRACKERS!! Jen answered so many questions and left us wanting so much more! I NEED book 4 to be here like yesterday!!All in all, this was a fanfreakingtastic book and I can't wait for the last book to be released and see what she has in store for us.
