No other love has burned so bright
Life can change in an instant, and no one understands that better than Aura. It’s been almost a year since her boyfriend tragically died. She’s finally letting go of Logan’s violet-hued ghost, but not her search to uncover the truth about her past.
As the first in a generation that can see ghosts, Aura is convinced that she has a connection to the Shift. She’s trusted Zachary, ever patient and ever by her side, with all that she knows. But when the government threatens his life in an attempt to learn Aura’s secrets, she will stop at nothing to protect herself and the one she loves...even if that means betraying her own heart.

Praise for SHINE
Jeri Smith-Ready has concluded this series in the most beautiful, perfect way possible...books like the SHADE trilogy make it really hard to read any other books. I compare the character development and complexity of other novels to the likes of these and they pale in comparison. These are books I'll be revisiting numerous times in my life. I'm not ready to let these characters go, nor will I ever be. The raw emotion, sadness, pain, and LOVE in these books is paramount. — Makeshift Bookmark
The strength of Smith-Ready's books lies in her remarkable characters. There's such a resonance there, a heightened sense of self-possession that makes everyone truly believable...This is the book for the Logan camp of fans who have been rolling their eyes at Zachary fandom. This is the book that he wins your hearts in, if he didn't have them already. — Bibliopunk
The way Jeri writes is like wrapping yourself in a warm blanket or listening to your favorite band; it’s like coming home. — Jaime, Two Chicks on Books
A very detailed, fast paced and deeply entertaining ending to the SHADE series....The SHADE series has moved to my Top 5 Favorite Series of all time, and there is shall stay. — Me, My Shelf, and I
This trilogy is my top favorite in the YA genre and will forever be irreplaceable. I’m locking these books in my heart and throwing away the key. The characters, the plot, the setting, the emotion- Oh, the EMOTION! — Living Fictitiously
The stakes have never been higher, the journeys never farther, the love never deeper...SHINE is the perfect ending to a perfect trilogy, a complete and captivating ride. — Bringing the Epic
Eye-popping, heart-pounding, jaw-dropping action as well as some very tender moments that are not only Zach-centric but will also appease those die-hard Logan fans...Jeri Smith-Ready has found a way to show the strengths and weaknesses of each of her beloved characters but I would have to say that Aura really owns this last book. She is the strong and resilient heroine that I needed her to be. — Patricia, Two Chicks on Books
A fantastic example of how a series (or trilogy) should end. There's mystery, tension (both romantic and just plain 'ol tension), and answers. — What's On the Bookshelf
Truly action packed and will keep you guessing down to the last pages...quite possibly, the most perfect conclusion to an awesome set. — Wait...What?
