Return to the Merrick brothers' world of mayhem and magic in the "original, funny, and romantic" series from the bestselling author of Spark (Nocturne Reads).

With power comes enemies. Lots of them.

Hunter Garrity just wants to be left alone. He's learned the hard way that his unusual abilities come at a price. And he can't seem to afford any allies.

He's up to his neck in hostiles. His grandfather, spoiling for a fight. The Merrick brothers, who think he ratted them out. Calla, the scheming psycho who wants to use him as bait.

Then there's Kate Sullivan, the new girl at school. She's not hostile. She's bold. Funny. Hot. But she's got an agenda, too.

With supposedly secret powers rippling to the surface everywhere around him, Hunter knows something ugly is about to go down. But finding out what means he'll have to find someone he can trust . . .

Hunter Garrity is new in school. He knows the Merrick brothers who hold the elemental powers of earth, fire, air, and water. He is different, holding the fifth power. He also has a lot of internal conflicts adjusting to his new situation. He and Gabriel Merrick are friends, sort of, but there's a love triangle that makes them rivals until Kate comes into his life.
There's a lot of action in this book. There are still people after all the elementals which creates danger around them and their loved ones. The Merrick brothers do appear but this is Hunter's story and he is conflicted. I did miss the Merricks but this book fits into the series nicely. ( )

I enjoyed this book by the end, but it made me feel frustrated throughout most of the book. Hunter's knee-jerk reactions to everyone, while somewhat understandable, got to be really, really tiring. The resolution was quite satisfactory but, damn, it was a hard row to hoe. ( )

This book made a crack in my heart. I adore Hunter and I just felt so sad for him at the end. ( )

Ahhh I was hoping for another Merrick boy story! Spirit is Hunter's story. He's not like the Merrick brothers. He's a Fifth. He is supposed to erase the full Elementals, like the Merricks. He hasn't.

Hunter is on rocky terms with the Merrick brothers and Becca. Nobody trusts him and they're not even really sure what side he's on. That's when he meets Kate - and the poor guy gets even more confused.

As a Fifth, people are drawn to him and he to them. It's in his nature to want to help people. This is why I don't understand why the Fifths (or Guides, they are called as they get older) have to eliminate the Elementals. It seems like a waste of ability and potential. The Elementals control over the elements can be potentially dangerous, yes. I agree. But there's better ways to go about it. Why don't the Guides teach them to control what they can do? Use it for good? You could still get a story out of that - just considering the character profiles of Fifths, it doesn't make sense. To be fair, maybe they've realised it (a little late) and thats the reason for the 'rebellion' (if you could call it that).

I feel like there's a lot of stuff that goes down in this novel that could have been avoided if the characters weren't stupid. Hunter's switching sides and constantly not knowing what he was doing was irritating. I also couldn't stand his need to 1. storm off in a huff and 2. not explain why he was storming off in a huff, as if everyone should always know why he was grumpy at the world. It's not all about you, Hunter, and you could make life a lot easier for yourself but you choose not to. I also found the week-long whirlwind romance with Kate strange and a little unbelievable. But this author has guts! I respect that.

That being said, I am still (shocking, right?) enjoying the storyline. I like the action and the secret world of the Elementals. Looking forward to book four, not sure if it will be Nick or Michael (Nick, please!)

Also, Author?
PLEASE stop telling me how good looking everyone in these books is! I honestly couldn't care less, tell me something real. ( )

Before I get started on this review, I was supposed to review this book last year. For some reason, I read the book but never posted a review. So, here it is.

Plot: Once again, this author has amazed me. I love this plot and the way it move. So much action yet filled with just the right touch of emotion. I think this story has so much more than what I thought. It really captured me and held me in the book.

Hunter: Just his story in general is really intriguing yet heartbreaking. I loved learning more from his point of view as well as the other brothers. I think this guy has proven himself time and again. I’m hoping that maybe one day he will had his happy ending.

Ending: This book does not end on a happy note. It ends sad yet the story is fulfilled. I can only hope that the author will release another story for Hunter or at least, give him something to make him happy. I didn’t see it ending that way. That is the reason why I held so strongly to the book.

I really love this series and I think all should read it. It’s has a great plot and characters to interest any reader. Spirit is a fabulous addition. ( )
