Great read

This series was really good! I loved the back and forth between Rylee and Colton. I loved the relationships between their friends. At times I hated Colton for how he acted but knew Rylee had the strength to get through to him. I enjoyed the series and would recommend!

⭐️ 5+ STARS ⭐️

This portion of Colton and Rylee’s story might be my favorite.
The feelings disclosed are still prevalent and gripped me intensely.

What I liked more than ever is that they once again have a mountain of obstacles to surmount to have their little piece of heaven, but contrary to the first two books, they stick together to confront them. Colton grew so much since Driven and to finally see the darkness slowly letting place to light in his life and him finally accepting it was a beautiful journey.

"Ry... don't you know I never forget a single moment when I race... on of off the track?"

What is more apparent is also their undeniable connection they can’t deny anymore and the purpose they have in each other’s life. Although it’s still hard for Colton to express himself in words, he shows time and time again that Rylee is the most vital part of his life and she’s his strength. Without words spoken, I often found myself speechless by the emotions showed between this fascinating couple. Their chemistry between the sheet is still so passionate.

I also find myself a deep appreciation for Beckett in this book. He was the best friend Colton needed to make him faces his struggles and realizes what he has with Rylee. I was so glad to see this kind of bromance. They're able to have funny moments, but also deeper and important ones.

"I race you, Ry. I really, really race you."

K. Bromberg definitely imposed herself as one of my new favorite author.
I still can’t realize that I’ve missed reading this series for the last three years and half. Definitely one of my top one now!
This whole series is a 5+ stars of roller coaster emotional pages.
Thanks you K. Bromberg for this epic journey you made me live!

Wow. This was the perfect ending to the trilogy. Perfect. The natural progression and growth of feelings between Colton and Rylee was so spot on, so believable. They fought their demons--together. Some unexpected and saddening moments. I just love how these two made each other better, that as a couple they were stronger as a whole and they learned that--again, together. I thoroughly enjoyed this entire trilogy but I am always a sucker for a great happy ending. Two epilogues made me a very happy reader. :)

I want to add, that(to me) Colton Donavan is to racing what Kellan Kyle is to music. Idk why, but Colton had me thinking of Kellan while I was reading the series. I loved that. <3

I heard there was talk about a book for the 10 year stretch that we didn't get to see... That, quite possibly, might need to be told in different books! I want Zander's story to see how he got there, I want to know what happened with Haddie, and I want to see the special moment for Colton and Rylee. I have a lot of wants :) I can't wait to see what's in store for us after this...

I swear to God life is a f-ing series of moments. Some unexpected. Most not. And very few inconsequential. F-- if I would have ever expected a stolen kiss to lead to this. Rylee and me.

I had tons of mixed emotions about this book. While I wanted so desperately to see the HEA, it was difficult saying goodbye to their story. Through the highs and lows, I LOVED every single moment of this book. The transformation that Colton underwent in these book is just breathtaking. I fell in love with his sexy, smart mouth from the beginning and I could not love him more as I finished. Rylee has become one of my all time heroines; she owns the book on unconditional love. The "sinner and the saint" - a definite match made in heaven. It has been a an amazing journey watching their love grow from that first kiss in the closet. There is a huge hole in my heart after saying goodbye to Rylee and Colton. This will always be on my all time favorites! I only hope that Kristy will give us peeks into their lives from time to time.

Favorite Quotes
"Baby, Heaven doesn't want me yet, and f-- if Hell can handle me, so you're kinda stuck with me."

"Sometimes hope is the most powerful medicine of all."

"You're my kind of perfect, Colton."


PS - YES, I cried just writing this review!

OMG! I am a mess of emotions right now as I just finished Crashed 5 minutes ago. I'm completely gutted and sad that Colton and Rylee's story is over, but also happy as the ending of their story was perfect. It was everything I ever dreamed of for them and much, much more. This book definitely pulled at my heartstrings, especially with Colton's past coming out and the torment he went through, both as an adult and as a child. I laughed, cheered, cursed (at that biotch Tawny), cried, and sniffled through this book. It was definitely worth every single minute!!

I am thrilled that I got to experience Colton and Rylee's story and have been able to see it through as it made it to the finish line, capturing the checkered flag. If I could give the Driven Trilogy and Crashed 100 stars, I would.

I was fortunate to stumble upon the Driven Trilogy when I got an ARC of Driven from the author. Let me tell you, this is the best series I have stumbled upon since FSOG. I have a small bookshelf which I have hard copies of my favorite books on and this series is getting a home there as soon as I get the signed copies from the author!

Kristy is a brilliant author and is definitely one of my faves! I cannot wait to read her next novel. And I'm am hoping that this isn't the last we hear of Colton and Rylee! Can we get a movie??
