Just an Illusion - The B Side

I fell in love with the first book - Side A. But this book pulled me in even more. I fell in love with the whole BAD family and the members' families. There was so much resolution and love and happiness in this book. Amelia, Noah, Sawyer, Belle, Darren, Eli, Rory, Veronica... But OMG, that ending...I was just in tears! You have to read this series! D Kelly is amazingly talented! I just can't wait to read "EP".

This is book 2 of the 3 book story. And there is a major cliffy at the end! Fair warning! This was a great continuation of Mel's story. Mel and Noah fall deeper and deeper in love with each other. Mel also develops a deep friendship with Sawyer even though Sawyer feels more than friendship for Mel. This part of the story is setting us up for the tremendous ending that I know is coming. The story is well written and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The cliffhanger ending is one that really broke me and I don't know how I will wait until June to find out what happens! Well written and I'm in love with the characters. This band is so much more than a band, they are a family. Great read!

Hang on to your hats ladies and gents! This is one emotional ride! Just an Illusion - The B Side is the second book in the Illusion trilogy, so please keep this in mind when you sit down to devour this book! You should definitely read Just An Illusion - Side A first (because it's awesome!) and because The B Side picks up where Side A left off. This book is heavy on the feels and at times you will be riding the highs, but oh, there are some truly heavy lows too. Prepare yourself for the swoons (#TeamWeston for the win!), steam (still fanning myself here), and some heartache too (Noooooooooo!). I really loved the mix of playfulness and lighthearted banter (LOVE the Weston and BAD family) and the angst and mystery. There are some truly epic surprises in this one too! Forgive my vague wording/review, but trust me when I say that you want to experience these moments from D. Kelly on your own. I could not put this book down and finished it in one sitting (Yes, adulting was ignored and children *may* have eaten cereal for dinner, but they understood that this book could not be ignored! Hahahahaha!) The B Side was a slower burn for me, really fleshing out the characters and what drives/motivates them. You get to know all the characters better and get to meet some sweet new additions as well. The wait until June for the final book feels torturous and bittersweet, but I know it will be worth it! *I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this book*
