Unbelievable 8 book bundle with the full collection of the Blue-Collar Bad Boys Next Door romances. Plenty of feels with these stories. The books included are listed below:
Axel
This story was way better than I thought it would be based on the blurb. The characters including the secondary ones were easy to relate to and likable (for the most part).
Axel is a soldier during the day and at night he is a bouncer at The Pit, a seedy club where he cage-fights one night a week. His best friend, Maddox asks him to keep an eye out for his little sister. Axel agrees. He just has to meet her first and when he does, he decides that he has to make her his.
Blair has an MBA but just got laid off and left a bad situation to stay at her brother's duplex. She has to find a new job and decides to apply as a server at The Pit until she can get another office job. While serving one of her tables, she sees Axel for the first time and is stunned by how hot he is. Blair almost gets into trouble until Axel steps in and saves her.
Blair and Axel are so great together. I loved how they took their time getting to know each other so that they were friends first. They were both protective of each other which was super sweet. Their happy ever after made me super happy.
Darby
I loved this story! Darby rocks and I've decided that I'm keeping him as my new book boyfriend. Darby and Harlowe are so sweet.
Darby is a police officer in Port City. Harlowe calls Darby for help and he helps, not just because it's his job but because he's been in love with her since they were kids. He never told her how he felt because he never felt like he was good enough for her. Now that they are back in each other's lives, Darby is going to make sure that Harlowe knows how he feels.
Harlowe and Darby were next-door neighbors when they were kids. He was the shy nerdy type while she was popular, but she still thought he was cute and had a crush on him. She went away to college and they fell out of touch. When Harlowe needs help she calls Darby and that starts a chain reaction of events that brings them closer and has them both admitting their truths.
There were a lot of feels in this story. I loved that Darby was so protective of Harlowe and that Harlowe made sure that Darby knew how much he meant to her. I loved their happy ever after. Reading this book made me smile.
Rocco
I liked this story a lot. It was entertaining and different. The characters were interesting and relatable. Chaplin was awesome!
Rocco is content with his life that revolves around his plumbing business, friends, and his dog. He has stopped looking for "The One" even though he would definitely like to find her or have her find him. Rocco meets his new neighbor when she comes over asking for help and knows right away that she is his. His "One" found him after all.
Seline is a restaurant reviewer that was recently homeless due to a fire, so finding a furnished duplex for rent was great luck. Her new neighbor is super hot, built, and a plumber. When Seline has a problem, she asks for his help and even though he can't help, he makes a counteroffer that helps her out. She runs into a problem because of a review that she wrote and Rocco is happy to help her any way she asks.
Rocco and Seline's discussions about food cracked me up. The way they were both all-in right away was super sweet. The angst was not over the top and I liked how it was resolved. I liked how the story ended. Their happy ever after had me smiling. I do wish there was another epilogue further out, but that's just because I'm greedy!
Maddox
A soldier rescues a single mom and her little girl, and they rescue him back... (Blurb)
Major
A tow-truck driver and single dad bonds with his gorgeous neighbor and her dog... (Blurb)
Damien
I loved this story so much. It's short, but entertaining and enjoyable even though it does reference past abuse. The characters were interesting and relatable. I felt like Nancy was very strong to go through what she did and get out.
****Blurb
Damien
After ten years as a Marine, I retired early so I could enjoy my thirties without all the horror. Deployments all around the world have left their scars, but I’ve made a life for myself as a construction worker. I still get to be active and use my hands. I just don’t have to watch people I care about die.
Then, a little spitfire named Nancy hurtles into my life, and even though she’s so much younger than me and my opposite, I can’t get her off my mind.
I’m pretty sure she hates me until she approaches me one day to be her fake date to her sister’s wedding. I should say no because this isn’t going to go anywhere. But I can’t resist the thought of spending an evening with her…
Nancy
It’s been a hell of a year. In that time, I escaped my abusive ex-boyfriend and found a great job I love. I’m trying to work my way back to normalcy, to something approaching a healthy life. Now, I just have to prove that to my family.
My sister Harlowe’s getting married to the love of her life, and her wedding is the perfect time to show them all I’ve got my act together with my super sexy, super doting boyfriend. Except I don’t have one.
The guy leading the construction crew where I work fits the bill physically, even though he’s eight years older than me and we get along about as well as oil and vinegar. But I’m desperate, and he’s willing. It’s just one night, and then we can go our separate ways.
****
Damien was awesome. I am going to keep him as my new book boyfriend. He was so calm and patient with Nancy even when she wasn't being nice or polite. I liked that he called her on her behavior and didn't just take it. I loved that Nancy recognized that Damien was different and decided to take a chance. Their happy ever after made me smile.
Dylan
An electrician gets another chance with his first love... (Blurb)
Brock
I loved this story! It was short but sweet and enjoyable. The characters were likable (for the most part) and easy to relate to. Brock was awesome. Taryn was great. The two of them together made fireworks! I loved how protective and supportive Brock was with Taryn. Their happy ever after made me smile. I do wish there was another epilogue further out, but I'm happy with how the story ended.
