Fantastic box set

Restraint: I have been waiting for this story since reading Blaire and Holt’s short story and it definitely didn’t disappoint. Blaire is the lone sister in the Gibson family that we have met in the Gibson series. She is very independent and a workaholic. Her brothers begrudgingly convince her to go on vacation in Savannah where she literally runs into Holt. Holt is a CEO and also a workaholic but they have chemistry from the start. I loved and connected with Blaire and how her and Sienna became good friends. I loved meeting the Mason family and watching Holt realize he can have a life outside the company. This was fantastic book with enough emotion but also humor thrown in. Adriana Locke has created fantastic families in her previous book series (and you get glimpses of both the Gibson’s and Landry’s in this book) and now we can add the Mason family to the list. I can’t wait to read the upcoming stories of the other Mason boys. Don’t pass up this book!

Reputation: I was looking forward to Coy’s story and wasn’t disappointed. Coy and Bellamy were best friends growing up but there was always something more underneath. Coy is now a country music star and comes home after he is sabotaged with bad publicity. Bellamy has no desire to see the boy next door since she has decided to hate him. This is a mix of second chance and enemies to lovers with sweetness mixed in. Yes- you will probably not like Coy much in the beginning but watching him figure out his feelings for Bellamy and essentially growing up is very heartwarming. I love the Mason family and can’t wait for Boone’s story (he is such great comic relief in this story)

Reckless: Boone is the baby of the family and has always been seen as the one who doesn’t take things seriously. Jaxi has had to deal with many struggles in her life and therefore she doesn’t trust easily. So when Boone finds out that Jaxi has broken into his house (she was supposed to be at her cousins) it is just par for the course for her. I loved watching Boone “become an adult” in addition to Jaxi learning to trust. There is also a big twist in this story that I didn’t see coming that I loved. There are lots of laugh out loud moments and I continue to love Siggy, but most importantly Boone is so sweet and swoony. Another fantastic story by Adriana Locke. Can’t wait for Oliver’s book.

I enjoyed the narrators for all of the books, although I didn’t think Tor Thom for Coy was a good fit.

Holt story

I'm in the South. Nobody's accent changes like these guys' accents. you should use actual Southern talent.

Oh these Mason Men!

Who wouldn’t want a swoony southern gentleman to sweep you off your feet!
Holt and Blair, the power house couple with loads to teach each other!
Coy and Bell, the childhood best friends to finally get past their own hang ups to see what was always in front of them!
Boone and Jaxy, the youngest Mason who finally realizes there is way more to life!
Each story wonderful in their own right and listening as a trio definitely filled that, I don’t want this to end, feeling! Really enjoy that the characters are built within each others books and continue to build as the series continues.
Looking forward to Oliver and Wade’s stories now!!

Love Adriana Locke and this family!

Book 1: I LOVED the Gibson family books so I was really excited to see Blaire again. I enjoyed her strong, intelligent attitude. It was really refreshing and fun to read. Her story with Holt was perfect and I loved them as a couple!

Book 2: I really enjoyed seeing a softer side of Coy. I don’t always love celebrity romances but this was done well!

Book 3: I really like Boone. He might be my favorite of the brothers so far but I felt like this romance was super fast paced. I would have liked a little time jump so that it felt more real. I really liked the added family dynamic with Rosie though and was so happy with the ending!

Love it

Love the fact that I got multiple books in one credit! I wasn’t a fan of all of the narrators but all in all I loved it.
