Trial By Fire Going Down in Flames Book 3 eBook Chris Cannon
After waiting a really long time for this third installment to be release, I have to say that I was a bit taken back and disappointed in how it turned out, so I am just going to speak passionately and throw this out there, I am rooting for Jaxon. I may understand why Bryn will end up with Valmont in the long-run, with him being her personal knight and all, and for the simple fact that most girls’ dream and fantasize about being swept away by a knight in “shining armor”, but I just don't buy this storyline, so I couldn’t cheer for Valmont. This is partially due to the fact that I loved the first and second book in the series and saw a fiercer connection between Bryn and Jaxon then her and Valmont. In nature, we tend to fight the most with the ones we love the most. From the first book I saw this connection between Bryn and Jaxon and enjoyed and admired the fighting and teasing between them. I like Jaxon’s character. He maybe rude and bad-tempered, but he is also honest and shows in his own way that he can care and change. Valmont is great and all, he is the ideal male role due to him being "Mr. perfect", but I don't feel the connection. Furthermore, I did not like the fact that while reading, I felt claustrophobic from Bryn and Valmont relationship. He follows her around like a puppy dog. I understand why he had to guard her, but they were always together and that's not healthy for any relationship. He went from being her bodyguard and friend to her romantic interest quickly due to the dragon-knight bond. And that also added to reason why I don’t think they should end up together romantically. Additionally, why does a dragon need a knight to defend them? I’ve read plenty of shifter books and dragons are usually one of the biggest, meanest, and toughest creatures in the stories. Why give the heroine of the story, who's a dragon, a knight to protect her? This makes me think of her as a damsel in distress rather then the hero.Bryn's character is a 16 years old teenager, but I feel that she can mature more and prioritize what's important. For instance, why is she so worried that Valmont hasn't been kissing her on the lips instead of trying to figure out who is trying to kill her. There are so many other instances that fell short, but it will be too much to list.
All in all, I have to end this on a positive note. I love the going down in flames series, but I did not agree with the romantic plot of this book. I am restlessly awaiting for a better outcome in the fourth installment.

Thoughts Pretty sure I’m going to go through withdrawals, this series is so good! The story moves along so quickly that you don’t even realize that half the book has been read. And it’s so hard to put down that everything else around you just disappears. Part of me wants to read it again just so I don’t have to miss the characters. This has elements of Divergent with the classes, their jobs, and no mixing. There’s also an element of Harry Potter with all the mysteries that Bryn tries to solve, a bit of the magic, and the school just for dragons. I am anxiously waiting for the next book and recommend this to anyone that likes a snarky main character who stands up for what she believes in and won’t let anyone push her around. Kudos Ms. Cannon for creating such a wonderful story that makes me crave more.
The series is well written but occasionally has annoying spouts of self doubt that at times can be mind numbing. However on top of the obvious intrigue, romance and angst in the current crisis, there is an underlying subtle emotional maturity growing with Bryn and Jaxon in the series. These two have a first meeting which seems promising (yes you must remember their initial first attraction) until Jaxon learns Bryn's identity. After that, well they live to antagonize each other. Rhianna and Jaxon have been set to an arranged marriage neither of them are crazy about until suddenly an injury makes Rhianna ineligible. Jaxon's protective instincts prove to attach to Rhianna whom has few other alternatives for her future. It is not surprising this attachment develops but there is subtle hints that their feelings may not be the kind each one wants long-term.
Rhianna is a likeable character and I hope her longtime affiliation with Jaxon proves her first impression of him in a relationship is ultimately what is real and to expect more is an injustice to her heart. She deserves happiness and not the sympathetic possessive protection that Jaxon seems to offer.
Bryn is a strong character that is learning her nature as a dragon as well as struggling between cultures and family while constantly under attack from many foes. She is desperate to have " someone " to call home and not feel as an outcast. This emotional insecurity lets her get in relationships that have underlying negative connotations that she blatantly ignores so she can stay safe in an imaginary world. Her not quite strong enough romance with Zavien is naive but more real then one seemingly enhanced with a bond with Valmont. Valmont is a likeable character and is suspiciously astute when he observes interactions between Bryn and Jaxon. I can only hope that he is released from his bond someday to find happiness or at least prove its influence.
I don't know how Bryn and Jaxon will come to be, but there will be personal growth and lots of pain to get there before they do.
And to make one observation...if restrictions on marriage within clans are lifted, will this mean Zevian might try a second chance with Bryn?
