The Beckett Brothers, Book 5

By: L A Gallagher

Narrated by: CJ Bloom, Robert Hatchet

What's worse than falling for my best friend's sister?

Falling for his wife....

One deep, stolen conversation at their engagement party, and my heart was ripped from my chest.

Years of craving. Aching. Burning.

I've lost myself in hundreds of women trying to forget her, but every time I close my eyes, it's her face that haunts my darkest fantasies.

Now she's in my club every weekend, her husband's latest betrayal written all over her face.

Watching my best friend destroy the only woman I've ever loved is a special kind of torture.

I'm running out of reasons to keep my distance.

Taking what I want will end in war—but some betrayals are worth the bloodshed–and she’s worth everything.

REBEKKA:
I married the devil's prodigy to save my family's business—but my husband's true talents lie in sabotaging everything he touches—including me.

When he flaunts his latest conquest through his best friend's club, it's the final straw.

I'm done playing the perfect corporate wife.
Done playing by the rules.
Done fighting the heat in Rian Beckett's eyes each time they devour me.

My body aches for his touch, and there’s only so much pain I can take.

It was supposed to be a fling.
But somehow, Rian became my everything.

Which is terrifying because no matter what I do, or where I go...my husband will never release me.

Duet narration - Robert Hatchet & CJ Bloom
Oh. my. gawd. I don't think I have heard Robert do an accent before and he was fabulous! CJ Bloom is always a fabulous choice for FMC. These two together were wonderful.

Finally Rian's book! Oh how I have been looking forward to this delicious story!

Book #5 The Beckett brothers Series

3 years of yearning from a distance Rian wants his best friend's wife Rebecca. These two had instant chemistry when they met but she was promised to Anthony and there was no way out. Now years later Rebecca is stuck in a shame of a marriage and Rian is unable to commit to any women that is not her.

I love this series so much! These brother's are absolutely swoony in a delicious way. They will do anything to protect what and who belongs to them. I love the strong relationships within the family and how they welcome the ladies with open arms.

L.A. Gallagher's writing is addictive and entertaining. With these books you are getting chemistry, sweetness, emotions, and the perfect amount of spice.

Rian is my new fav!

The Beckett Brother’s never disappoint and Rian might just be my new favorite! I knew I would love Rian with his sense of humor and jokes but little did I know it would be his dirty mouth that really sealed the deal. Rian and Rebekah were a slow burn forbidden romance with all the spice and yearning. They had fantastic banter and amazing chemistry. CJ Bloom and Robert Hatchet did an amazing job narrating. Robert’s accent was soo good and really added to the story. Both narrators made the story come to life and it was so enjoyable to listen to! I highly recommend this audiobook!!

Next level longing and a wonderful HEA

Oh, how I’ve waited not so patiently for Rian’s story and it was worth it! Ms. Gallagher handled a sensitive issue in a very mature, respectful way. The longing and the angst that Rebecca and Rian feel throughout the book is chef’s kiss. I cheered for their happily ever after throughout the book. This book had a little less spice than the previous books, but it was no less delicious. As with each book in this series, the family aspect is an additional delight. The way Baby Beckett and his family always have each other’s backs is truly heartwarming. I implore you to read the whole series, you won’t regret it. I enjoyed the audio production of this book performed in duet style by Robert Hatchet and CJ Bloom. The narrators did a phenomenal job. Robert brought his A-game to Rian’s performance and that of his brothers. CJ portrayed Rebecca’s turmoil over being trapped in a horrible, loveless marriage with poise and grace. I enjoyed both 5-star performances. Overall, this was yet another 5-star read with great narration and 3 spicy peppers. Don’t forget to head to the Blue Nose Audio app for the bonus epilogue!

Release Me

I freaking devoured this book & Baby Beckett did not disappoint! Rian is a spicy cinnamon roll & might just be my favorite Beckett brother but shhhhh you can't tell the others! Rebekka is so sweet & she deserves nothing but the best after what she went through. I never thought I'd say this but L.A. made me love the "cheating trope" & I'm not even mad. I never want this series to end!

The duet narration for this audiobook was perfection! CJ & Robert both did a phenomenal job bringing this story to life & those accents were top freaking tier!

As Always Happy Reading

I’d want him instead too

What can you do when the one person you want is the one you can’t have…..or is she/he??? Well I guess that will depend on her husband and how he treats her, how he constantly embarrasses her, how he constantly cheats on her in the open….well it all catches up to him in the end, and the top man wins the girl! But not without a little bit of brutal fun getting there!!

The audio for this is excellent. The production is by bluenose and as usual, it’s seamless! Performed by CJ Bloom and Robert Hatchet I don’t think you could have picked any better. They did so well with everything, with every voice being different. Absolutely amazing work. And I mean LA Gallagher is brilliant so the book is going to be amazing!
