I never put spoilers in my reviews.
This is the 5th book I've read that's written by this author and I'm such a fan. Never trite nor formulaic, always surprising. She writes with such depth and understanding of people and her heroines are always sassy and flawed, just like me, and her heroes are all they're supposed to be.
This is a book for grownups not ingenues. Hallelujah!
Read, enjoy, get more of her books- I am m

MacKenzie Fire A Sequel to Shine Not Burn eBook Elle Casey Reviews

It's funny that this book is about Ian and Candace because when reading the first book I thought they would be interesting together.
In this story, Andie and Mack are married and expecting their first child. Candace is going to be the god-mommy so she's visiting for 2 weeks to help. As you can imagine, she and Ian get along like oil and water although they are both insanely attracted to each other. Candace also decides to get the true reason behind Ian's depression and why people are snubbing her best friend Andie.
I enjoyed Candace's character. She was fun and said/thought some truly wacky things. She and Ian are a good compliment. I would love to know more about these families so I hope more books are possible! Maybe one about Boogs?
Shine Not Burn is my favorite book by Elle Casey, so I was beyond thrilled when I found out there would be a second book in the series. Because I loved Shine Not Burn so much, I had high expectations going into this one, and I was not disappointed. This book was incredible from beginning to end. I loved everything about it. What I did not expect was how funny it was. I was laughing throughout the whole book. Candice is absolutely hilarious, and such a great female lead. She is strong-willed, loyal, trustworthy, and dedicated to those she loves. Then we have Ian. I didn't think Ms. Casey would write another male that would top Mack, but she outdid herself. Ian is perfect. He has the perfect mix of bad attitude, sense of humor, loyalty, trustworthiness, and sexiness all rolled into this hot cowboy.

If you've read Shine Not Burn, you'll remember that Ian is Mack's younger brother, who's wedding was called off as a result of the boys trip to Vegas. Fast forward three years, and Ian is still having a hard time getting over the breakup. Candice has come to visit to await the birth of Mack and Andie's first baby. Ian and Candice instantly have a love/hate relationship, and the two of them together is hilarious. They definitely get into all kinds of odd trouble involving falling (several times), hay fights, a shooting, mountain lion attacks, and being attacked by darts, just to name a few.

This book is definitely a must-read, and deserves so much more than 5 stars.
I laughed so much while reading this book that my husband kept asking me, “Are you ok?”, “Can you breathe?” and “What are you laughing at?!”. Elle Casey has this ability to write books that make me laugh hysterically one moment and before I can even catch my breath then I’m all antsy, hot and bothered….but in a reallllly good way! The males are HOT, the females are endearingly hilarious and the chemistry between the two of them is searing. Yet another book I love that she has written!

This time we get to hear what’s happening in the MacKenzie’s world from Candice’s point of view. No one can forget her from Shine Not Burn. Between the collagen (thin lips sink ships), holding in your gas (you spontaneously combust) and abhorring practicality she was one of my favorite people in that book. The girl is extremely loyal but she is a little crazy and her thoughts are sometimes all over the place. I loved being in her head and listening to her rationalization for her word and phrase choices and listening to her internal babble! It was SO entertaining and silly at the same time! Ohhh and I love that Google is her best friend lol!

“Just show me the guns. Which one is good for protection?”
Henry looks down into the case. “From lions? Well…I suppose any of these could work if you hit the lion between the eyes. Do you think you’re a good shot?” He looks up at me, hopeful, possibly a little stressed too.
I nod enthusiastically. “I’m sure I will be. I’m a hair dresser.”

So we start out with Candice flying to visit her best friend Andie for a few weeks. When Andie picks up Candice at the airport she brings in tow Ian, who is Mack’s younger brother. From the start, Ian gets under Candice’s skin. He knows how to push all of her buttons and she knows how to drive him absolutely insane. One thing leads to another and Candice ends up being on Ian’s I-will-get-you-back-if-it-kills-me-list. Ian trying to get Candice back and Candice trying to get Ian back is so high school BUT so funny! I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next. I think I lost brain cells during some of the pages because I was laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe! But during all of their interactions Candice is realizing how much she likes Ian. But she is from a bottom right state (Florida) and he is from a top left state (Oregon), so how can it ever work?

So many things were right about this book. The banter was hot and hilarious. The nicknames, which can be done soooo wrong, were perfect. He calls her City and she calls him Country and I absolutely adored that! Ian was a hot, broken, scheming, passionate mess and I loved every minute of him. And the ending was exactly what I wanted it to be. I’m so sad this is the end of the MacKenzie’s journey but I loved everything about it!
When I read book one, Shine, Not Burn, the story of Andie and Mack in 2014, I was not so impressed. There were some funny parts, but Ms. Casey was all over the place with her story.

In this book, the laughter is better, the scenes are tighter, but there are still editorial gaffes that jar me. Candice's hurt arm; when needed to hurt, it does, when it will get in the way of another scene, it doesn't. These things are contrived and jar me from the story. There are too many things like that.

Still it was a fun, light read. Enjoyable.
