Two hot men seeking a fun, flirty girl with a sense of adventure. You in?
My life changed the day Zach Boston walked into it. And we’ve been inseparable best friends and lovers ever since. But he’s almost seven years younger than me and I remember all too well what my twenties were like - A new adventure every day, non-stop partying every night, and a new girl (or guy) whenever I got bored.
That’s why Zach and I always have a third.
Girls are how we’ve kept it fresh all year.
We’ve gone through dozens of them since we got serious and I’m not saying I don’t enjoy the dynamic of a threesome, because I do.
But when this cute girl with pink hair comes sailing into our lives and upends everything—I don’t know if we’ll survive it.
★★★★★
Bossy Brothers: Luke is the final book in the Bossy Brothers series and features a sweet and sexy MMF ménage with two hot, committed men and a pink-haired gossip reporter desperate for a scoop. But when she stumbles into more secrets than she can handle, her boys need to call on all the Boston and Dumas brothers to keep her safe.

About the author
J.A. Huss
144 books9,059 followersJ.A. Huss never wanted to be a writer and she still dreams of that elusive career as an astronaut. She originally went to school to become an equine veterinarian but soon figured out they keep horrible hours and decided to go to grad school instead. That Ph.D wasn’t all it was cracked up to be (and she really sucked at the whole scientist thing), so she dropped out and got a M.S. in forensic toxicology just to get the whole thing over with as soon as possible.
After graduation she got a job with the state of Colorado as their one and only hog farm inspector and spent her days wandering the Eastern Plains shooting the shit with farmers. After a few years of that, she got bored. And since she was a homeschool mom and actually does love science, she decided to write science textbooks and make online classes for other homeschool moms. She wrote more than two hundred of those workbooks and was the number one publisher at the online homeschool store many times, but eventually she covered every science topic she could think of and ran out of shit to say.
So in 2012 she decided to write fiction instead. That year she released her first three books and started a career that would make her a New York Times bestseller and land her on the USA Today Bestseller’s List eighteen times in the next three years. Her books have sold millions of copies all over the world, the audio version of her semi-autobiographical book, Eighteen, was nominated for a Voice Arts Award and an Audie award in 2016 and 2017 respectively, her audiobook Mr. Perfect was nominated for a Voice Arts Award in 2017, and her book, Taking Turns, was nominated for an Audie Award in 2018. Johnathan McClain is her first (and only) writing partner and even though they are worlds apart in just about every way imaginable, it works.
She lives on a ranch in Central Colorado with her family.

Great romance and drama!

Narration: 🎙🎙🎙🎙
Romance: 💙💚🖤❤️
Heat/Steam: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Story/Plot: 📕📗📘📔📙
World building: 🌎🌍🌏🌎🌍
Character development: 😭😖😔🤐😥
The heroine: Posey (a.k.a. Princess Euphemia) - she is a reporter for Buzz Hollywood, who has been running a secret underground fan group for Zach Boston for years. Buzz Hollywood contacted her through the fan group and gave her a job as Zach Boston’s stalker. She has been obsessed with him for years. She is planning to write a gossip story about Zach and Luke’s relationship.
The Heroes: Luke Dumas & Zach Boston - Zach Boston is 23 and cousin/brother to the Bossy Brothers. Luke Dumas is 29 and one of the Florida Dumas clan. Zach’s cousin/brother Jessie is married to Emma Dumas, which is how the ocean centric Dumas clan ended up so entwined with the Bossy Brothers who are affiliated with “The Company”, which is like the Mafia, but better connected. The two of them are a couple, but they both also like girls, so they date plenty together.
The Story: Luke owns Dumas Water Adventures and this year he added a floating beachside bar and bought a new yacht for overnight dive trips, as well as adding a bunch of new employees to help run things. He and Zach live together and don’t cheat on each other, they only add girls into the mix when they are together.
While at the bar one night, Luke meets a girl he tags as “Princess Euphemia”, a pink haired pixie of a girl who says she was with Zach last weekend when she sees Luke watching Zach dance. She tells Luke to make Zach jealous by pretending she and Luke are together.
The following day we find out that Zach likes having the girls around much more than Luke does. Luke enjoys them enough the night they pick them up but he doesn’t like them to hang around longer and he gets a bit jealous when Zach pays more attention to the girls than he does. Though Zach does pay quite a bit of attention to Luke and obviously sees them as a team.
The trio ends up at a shady pop up party hosted by some ultra rich people with a ton of secrets. I figured out pretty quick that this party probably has ties to “The Company” which has been a running theme in a more than a few of the series by J.A. Huss. Frankly I wasn’t happy to see this level of elite underworld drama in this book. I am kind of sick of “The Company” and all the ultra rich “shadow government/global cabal of people who actually run the world.” Though I really did like where this story went.
Though I did really like how the relationship between the two guys and Posey grows. Luke hates her for a while because she seems like a player, but when he finds out she is just a normal girl who needs help, he becomes more interested. Zach seems to like Posey quite a bit at first, but when he finally drops the fact that he has been playing her, he reveals that he couldn’t care less about her, but his feelings soon grow as well. We end up getting to see the entire Dumas/Boston clan, which I loved. I plan to re-read via audiobook some of this series that I already read, because I am remembering how much I love these people.
This book was told in multiple points of view (Zach, Luke, and Posey). The narration was dual narration, so the female narrator had did all the voices while narrating the chapters in Posey’s point of view and the male narrators did all the voices while narrating Luke and Zach’s points of view. Despite that the narration was good with Hathaway Lee, Aaron Shedlock and James Cavenaugh, whose voices matched the characters very well.

I was anxious to read Luke Dumas and Zach Boston's story, because I just knew with this being the last book in the Bossy series, it was going to be a doozy! And Julie sends these characters out with a bang.
There is a lot that has been happening that leads up to this finale and I love how Julie masterfully brings all the interconnected pieces of this world together. As I was reading, I found myself going back to past books and re-reading multiple passages and marveling at how it's all coming together.
Typically I get very wordy with my reviews, probably to the chagrin of a lot of readers who really just want to know - is the book good and worth reading, or not? Well, I'm here to say that YES, this book is VERY good and more than worthy of reading. Particularly if like me, you've been a die hard fan for years of this messed up world of The Company that Julie rolled out all those years ago. Just when readers thought that world was done being talked about, Julie drags us back in and man has it been a heck of a ride!
I feel bereft that the Bossy world is complete now, but I don't think we're really done with seeing these guys and their women popping up in future stories. There's still SO much going on that needs resolution, and still one much loved character that I'm dying to see where their story goes from here. And with two more books to come in the Creeping Beautiful series, to say my excitement and anticipation is ramped up would be an understatement.
As always, Julie gifts her readers with a highly complex, multi-layered story that kept me glued to the pages. I have so many questions that I'm dying to know the answers to, and I have no doubt the answers, when revealed, are going to blow me away!
The dynamic between Zach, Luke and Posie was perfect and their sexy scenes together are hot, hot, hot!! But their relationship turns out to be more than just some flings in the sack, which is what Zach and Luke are used to with their flavor of the week, revolving door of women. Posie turns out to be much more than either man bargained for.
Well, I guess I lied when I said I wasn't going to write a long review like I usually do, but I can't help it when it comes to the amazing stories Julie writes. I can't get enough of them!

First of all: don’t start a JA Huss book at midnight, okay? That is such a rookie move.
Second of all: if you do, don’t fool yourself into thinking you can put it down after one chapter.
Look, I’m not saying that this happened to me... buuuut, if it did, I definitely didn’t get to 33% before my eyes would no longer stay open. 🤣
Welcome back to the Bossy world, where the characters are smoking hot, have the best chemistry, and, oh yeah, are sitting on a landmine of secrets.
This book can almost be split into two parts, where part one (and I don’t even mean chronologically) focuses on the dynamic between Zach, Luke, and Posie, and part two uncovers even more secrets about the Bostons, the Dumases, and The Company.
So let’s first discuss the triad. Zach and Luke together are fire. They’re charismatic, scorching hot, and so into each other that it hurts. When Posie first shows up, the instinct is to distrust her, even if she’s just their type and totally up for a dirty time. (See, why I couldn’t put it down after one chapter.) Over time, the boys’ relationship with Posie runs the gamut of interest/lust, distrust, dislike, reluctant protectiveness, outward hostility, and morphs into a grudging respect, and eventual affection. It’s a fun dynamic. I think any situation with three conflicting viewpoints always has the potential for fun exchanges, and these don’t disappoint.
But while all of that is going on - because it’s happening simultaneously within the bigger plot - the three of them are also stumbling into things better left undiscovered. ie. The Company. There are appearances from previous players, a LOT of answers, and the book ends satisfyingly, but if you’re familiar with Julie’s twisty stories, you know this is far from over.
Bossy Luke is surprisingly light on suspense, but heavy - HEAVY - on mystery, and conclusions. Everything works so well together; the relationship, the discoveries... and the family. Another excellent installment in this world of secret societies!

J.A. Huss has clearly given me the perfect 'ending' for the Dumas crew. I have loved getting to know more about this family and the lives they lead and the loves that consume them. With baby brother Luke's story last, we get to see him as a successful part of their boating business, living large on a yacht by day and in his own bungalow in the family compound by night. His relationship with Zach Boston intrigued me from the start and their trysts both with each other and now with the unexpected Posie, are incredibly erotic and fun. Huss knows how to write M/M/F like no other and my only complaint in that department is that I wanted more. Because yeah, thet are that hot.
I found this book to be not as intense as I might have expected but there is plenty of mystery and intrigue as Posie's presence manages to stir up a whole new set of crucial situations that neither she nor Zach and Luke ever saw coming. As a 4 hour cruise to a so-called 'pop-up' party on a sandbar leads to a bit of unraveling of this world that has admittedly confused the life out of me on more than one occasion, answers I have longed for are finally revealed. With The Company (yes, THAT Company) once again at the core of what Posie discovers while at this party, I felt a kindred spirit with her as everything was explained in a clear and easy to follow manner. Oh yeah, my jaw dropped over and over again during the last 20 percent or so of this book but it just made me realize just how much of a clever writer Huss is. The way she continually ties each of her series with ones before it is truly amazing.
The love story between Luke, Zach and Posie takes a bit of a back seat with everything else going on with the Bostons and the Dumas's and this newest guest but it's no less important nor is it fleeting. What started as a a typical one-night stand that is impeccably choreographed by both Luke and Zach, becomes the very beginnings of a trio who thrive on trust and excitement for the future and a clear way to keep the past far, far away.
It's anyone's guess just what will transpire next for this cast of characters but I'm hopeful we'll get to see them again in the very near future. Bossy Brothers: Luke was thoroughly enjoyable as Huss manages to make me chuckle even in the most dire of situations. And always has me needing a fan as the trysts she creates never fail to make me sweat. A book that is best read after enjoying the prior tales in the series, I happily give this latest adventure a solid 5 stars!

I Give this Book a 3-3.5/5 Star Rating, Listing as 3.
I was trying to figure out what star rating to list this as, and I had it listed as 4, but the relationship in this book kept confusing me as to how to list it, so I have to go 3 stars.
HEA(?): Yes
Pacing: It does read at a faster pace then I was expecting, Mid-Fast.
Heat: 3-3.5/5
Romance: 3.5/5
Drama: 4-4.5/5
Suspense: 3.5-4-4.5/5
Dark(?): No
Relationship Type: It’s supposed to be MMF, but for some reason it’s kinda confusing to me cause it comes off more like a MFM (to me), with a much more Female Focused Vibe, with Very Lite M/M.
Which is a bit disheartening to me cause MMF is one of my Favorite go-to genres.
It’s a pretty decent read, but I did expect a little bit more with the guys not just >sexually<, but a bit more relationship wise with each other, they come off more as best friends...that completely ‘okayed’ touching with each other.
Posie even as a ‘subject’ seemed to take over Luke & Zach’s dialogue & book, even though this book is for all Three of them.
The Spotlight award goes to Posie, leaving the guys to seem not as important at times, which was odd to read.
It probably didn’t help that I couldn’t even connect with Posie at all.
M/M(?): Yes, but in all honesty it’s a bit more Lite M/M.
I gotta say I do wish that there was a bit more, especially some only MM time with Zach & Luke.
Cause the scenes that were supposedly only between the guys...well...they’re the ‘next day’ type, that was very disappointing, cause that’s another thing I wasn’t expecting.

Well Julie sure starts things off with a bang. I had to finish this series out and I went in this last one blind. I liked the story between Posey, Luke and Zach. Luke and Zach just doted on Posey. I think over the 1/2 way mark the story takes on a suspenseful side which is always interesting. It was great seeing all the other characters from the previous books. I look forward to see what Julie writes next!

Luke by JA Huss is the final book in the Bossy Brothers series and I loved it. A steamy and sexy MMF story, Zach and Luke have an unbreakable connection. They are best friends and lovers and enjoy adding a third into their life. But they never saw Posie coming and when she enters their lives, everything changes. What starts out as fun, suddenly becomes so much more. Add in a bit of suspense and I was captivated from start to finish. In true Julie style, she brings it all together and I devoured it. Another great read from this author!
Happy reading!

I can't say enough great things about this series. What a way to wrap up everything Bossy.
I think I've loved Zach and Luke since the 1st time we met him within the series, they are both such in your face characters that you can't help but to love them both, and once you add a feisty spitfire of a woman you have explosive chemistry in AND outside of the bedroom.
There are so many AHA moments in this conclusion and to see all of the other characters I didn't want it to end.

Everytime I read one of these Company books I lose a few more braincells trying to figure it all out. You defintely get more clues in here, but something tells me the Company is far from over.
I also love Luke and Zach together as a dynamic duo.

Two words. Nick Tate. Shit why didn’t someone warn me. This was so good. Review to come.
January 4, 2021
I enjoyed J.A. Huss’ stories about the Boston brothers, and I was thrilled when the story arc allowed her to add on stories about the related-by-marriage Dumas brothers. The Boston brothers are interesting because of their infamy, and the Dumas brothers are just plain intriguing and fun.
I adore the family complex on Key West. I love the idea of a tight-knit family running a multi-faceted family business. The fact that weekly family dinner is something the siblings do because they want to not just because it was expected made my knees week. Who doesn’t love a guy who loves and respects his family!?!
Luke Dumas and Zach Boston became partners in more than one way in a prior book in the series, and this last series installment features them. I love their banter and life outlook. Ms. Huss adeptly threw in realistic relationship issues and doubts that really brought depth to the characters and story.
Posie Payseur is supposed to be a one-night stand, and she turns into so much more. The way Ms. Huss incorporates this seeming throw-away character into the overall arc of the series is genius. Getting her perspective as well as that of both Zach and Luke’s made for a rich, interesting story.
When things go from sexy hot to dangerous hot, the plot takes off. Like the other books in the series, this is a fast-paced read that is hard to put down. I enjoyed how Ms. Huss turned an innocent social media group into something bigger. The author left me pondering if there was a socio-political message in some of the later plot points. Even if there was a message in the author’s story, it is subtle and doesn’t take away from the shear fun of this romantic suspense. As I’ve come to expect, Ms. Huss has delivered a complex story line, fascinating characters and wicked tie-ins to several of her previous books and series. Don’t worry if you’re a new-to-this-author reader; you won’t get lost and you will want to read more of the author’s books.

I adore the family complex on Key West. I love the idea of a tight-knit family running a multi-faceted family business. The fact that weekly family dinner is something the siblings do because they want to not just because it was expected made my knees week. Who doesn’t love a guy who loves and respects his family!?!
Luke Dumas and Zach Boston became partners in more than one way in a prior book in the series, and this last series installment features them. I love their banter and life outlook. Ms. Huss adeptly threw in realistic relationship issues and doubts that really brought depth to the characters and story.
Posie Payseur is supposed to be a one-night stand, and she turns into so much more. The way Ms. Huss incorporates this seeming throw-away character into the overall arc of the series is genius. Getting her perspective as well as that of both Zach and Luke’s made for a rich, interesting story.
When things go from sexy hot to dangerous hot, the plot takes off. Like the other books in the series, this is a fast-paced read that is hard to put down.

As soon as Zach Boston walked into Luke Duma’s life, they connected. Luke and Zach do everything together...and everyone! When a feisty pinked hair girl named Posie shows up they might have to keep this one around for a bit, but is she really just a sweet and curious girl or is there something she is hiding? When one yacht adventure turns into something unexpected, what will happen? This is a steamy, MMF, romantic suspense and the last in this series. I enjoyed getting to finally see Zach’s story and loved seeing so many past characters from prior books. Get ready to head back to the water for a wild ride with all the Boston/Dumas family secrets and twists that come about in this interconnected series. This is a stand-alone however, it does help if you’ve read prior books as there are so many intertwining storylines between them all. Told in multiple POV

MIND BLOWN!! Julie Huss is a freaking genius! I would love to spend a day in her mind since she completely obliterated mine!!
Luke Dumas and Zach Boston are a packaged deal and fun with a female is never off the table. Pink haired, pint size Posie is just the one to bring some excitement and heat to the party.
Both men are trying to keep their lives low key in Key West, but with names like Boston and Dumas you just know that down low is not necessarily a given. A charter yacht trip to an outrageous pop up party on a private Caribbean island quickly turns into something sinister and mysterious. Posie inadvertently stumbles on some serious skeletons in the closet and when names get dropped, puzzles pieces start to click into place. Zach and Luke know they need to call in all the brothers.
Once all the families are together, the plot unravels at a breakneck pace. True to Julie Huss form, the thrilling roller coaster ride takes over. The Company makes a return in a jaw dropping, heart pounding way. Secrets are revealed, truths are told and some major former players from the past return to set the record straight. I literally did not breath for these chapters! It was an epic ending!!
Julie delivered a sexy, twisted thrilling story! Amazing 5 star read!

DO NOT think you will put this one down!! JA Huss continues to find amazing ways to keep us all within "The Company". The dynamics of each integral branch are absolutely fascinating. From "The Way" to "Snake and Apple" - where oh where do these all come from. I would love to spend the day in her head that is for sure! I truly love Luke, Zach and Posie and the connection they share. They had some issues of courses - a few bumps here and there. But even through all the deceit you could still feel the realness of the connection! Not only do the Trio have themselves to worry about, now because of something that was stumbled and a name dropped in come all the Bossy Brothers - taking charge as usual - (and significant others) as well as the Dumas family. Things get pretty intense and suspenseful just as you would expect, information gets provided as to how deep they all really are in, most of them not even knowing they were. This is just so darn cool, right back to all the spy and James Bond kind of stuff - love it!!! This is yet again another installment not to be missed!!!

If you have ever read a Julie book, you know things are not always what they seem and people are not always who they say they are. Bossy Brothers Luke brings the story full circle and lets all the secrets out of the bag. Luke and Zach had a connection from the time they walked into each others lives, but liked to have a little fun between them, enter Poise. She is a spitfire whi is willing to play in the big leagues to get what she wants. Every one has secrets. Every one is playing a game, but unsure of what game the others are playing. I loved the appearance of certain characters in this book. Congratulations an a fantastic book! I love the way you wrap a book up and tie the series together! Brilliant!

I've been religiously following along on this Bossy Brothers ride for 7 books now. But if you've read the books, you know that JA Huss is stringing together a few different worlds and making connections. So if you're a Huss fan, you are seeing a lot all twisted into one big force. And that's why we like to read her books. For the twists and turns and mind*cks.
With that said, Luke is a hard one for me to review. I generally go in blind to books, especially when I've been reading the series. As soon as Luke Dumas came into Zach Boston's life, they were inseparable. Zach basically moved himself into Luke's place on the "Dumas" street in the Keys and they did their own thing. They played and had others come in to play with them. But what was their story and how did they fit in with the rest of the families?
I found myself skimming through a lot of the first part of the book. Told in 3 POV's we get three characters that are going to shape this story. Of course Zach and Luke, but also Posie who we think is just going to be a plaything for them. The beginning is them 'meeting', having sex, traveling on a yacht for a job, and having sex. I'm all for sex, but this became almost too much of the story and I wanted more. More answers and more bringing together of the series because this is the final Bossy book. How was their relationship going to push the journey forward and bring us to a satisfying conclusion?
Once they get to their destination for the job that Luke was hired for, that is where the story picked up for me. Unfortunately, I had to go through a lot of the story that didn't seem necessary. The yacht job brings them to islands where we encounter a bunch of rich men and something else. That something else is only the beginning and that's where Miss Huss takes a 180 and brings in the family and the twists and turns that we've come to expect. Questions and answers and connections galore. And it is insane!
With Bossy Brothers #7 Luke, you are almost getting 2 different stories. The first half with Luke, Zach and Posie, and the second half with the whole gang. That is where I felt like it connected with the rest of the Bossy books. You get to see the connections to all the characters and make sense of everything. If I hadn't read the previous books, I'm not sure how much I would've believed that these characters belonged together. I still don't really know why Posie of all people?. I'm not sure if the first half was more filler or what the purpose was, but it wasn't needed for me to enjoy the second half of the book and make the connections with the lives we've been reading.
Overall, this was not the book I was expecting to wrap up the series, but it did have all the twists and turns and WTF moments we've come to expect from JA Huss' books. I much more enjoyed the second half and wish it would've connected with the first half in a more cohesive manner. Thankfully the story is still there and we get to see all the Boston and Dumas players along with some surprises for a true Huss fan. And those surprises are what kept me turning those pages with excitement and questions until the very end. 3.75 stars

Bossy Luke is the seventh book in the series
Luke and Zach are a couple who live in a cottage on the Dumas cul-de-sac and enjoy running their business together on the Florida Keys
Posie is a pink haired girl who catches the eye of Zach and then she plays Luke,
but unknowingly they are playing her
They start a very hot and steamy relationship or is it just a hook up we will see.
The story continues to a pop up party, the Dumas family adventure tours are hired for and are introduced to some very weird group and during this party, Posie goes snooping and finds a lot more than she ever thought and witnessed some very bad things and this gets her into some real trouble
Then the Boston’s Dumas family and some wonderful people from past books with connections with the Company the Way and the FBI come together to hold a meeting on what to do about the situation and a plan is put together
I love the Dumas family, from the dinners everyone must attend every Saturday, no matter how far away you live, it is expected and taco night,
everyone loves taco night haha
This is such a great story the last in a series and it brings together so many favorite characters from past books and it neatly pulls together all the loose ends to a fantastic climatic ending which will intertwine with Wasted Lust, Creeping beautiful and Pretty nightmare
So looking forward to the next book in that series coz I just love Nick and Merc
Julie you are awesome
I just loved it x

This was hands down my favorite Bossy book in the series! I loved all the books in the series, but this one just completely blew me away! I was actually inwardly cheering at the end. This book did an excellent job of wrapping up this particular series while still leaving some lingering questions for the overarching plot that stretches across several series. As usual, there were some surprising twists and turns to the story (Would it be a JA Huss book if there weren’t?) that I definitely did not see coming. There were also some familiar names from other series who made an appearance and served to stir this complex pot of what the f-? stew just that much more. And the love story between these characters was so unconventional and unexpected—even for them—but beautiful nonetheless. To say these three have bonded would be a gross understatement. Nothing brings folks together like a little murder, mayhem, and intrigue. I was really rooting for these characters, and I was seriously smiling from ear to ear at the end of this and doing a little virtual fist pumping to boot. I cannot recommend this book highly enough! I would give it all the stars if I could.

My goodness was this book addicting right from the first page (no surprise there!). Bravo JA Huss, another amazing story to finish the Bossy Brothers series.
Damn did this book take on a suspenseful twist about half way. A lot of things happened that led up to it… mind blowing-edge of your seat-gasping moments that you never saw coming, keeping you gripped inside the story.
I loved the way it started off with Luke, Zach and Posie and that connection they had even through the animosity that developed for a short time. And after learning everything they did about The Company and banding together with their families, I enjoyed all their interactions. So happy they got their happily ever after together!
But I so want more of The Company and I can’t wait to see what’s in store next.

While this may be the last Bossy Brother story, it is by no means the end of the story. If you have kept up with JA Huss over the years, the stories are all converging (not sure if this is quite the correct word but...) into what may someday be an explosive finish. You MAY feel a bit lost if you haven't been in on it from the beginning (because to be fair, I have not yet read the Company stories), but as JA Huss begins to tie things up, you will perhaps not feel as lost as you might think. The story stands tight on it's own, with some steamy MMF scenes and some great suspenseful scenes. I was completely on the edge of my seat when certain characters came into the mix which only makes me want to go back and read what I've missed. In the end, the story of Zach, Luke and Posie is a great one that deals with insecurity and pain and secrets and love and lust and just everything in between.
January 25, 2021
This was a satisfying ending:) Although things never really end with JA Huss' book do they? So while it seems like things are tied up nicely with the Bossy Brothers and The Company there is still the Creeping Beautiful series, so back into the shadows we go. And I can't wait.

I really enjoyed reading Luke’s story and the dynamic between Luke, Zach and Posey was super hot. I liked having all of the gang come together and work together in a way that only the Boston’s and Dumas families know.
January 5, 2021
This book was amazing. I enjoyed so much Luke and Zach’s connection and how they were with each other. Posie added so much to the story. So much happened in this story that I never saw coming. So many answers to questions I have had from prior books. You will not be disappointed in this one! Wow!
January 6, 2021
Oh. My. Yes!
This book is hot! Luke and Zach are what dreams are made of and Posie is the lucky one to be involved. At first, Posie is wanting her big break and uncover all things with the Boston family but she soon learns there is more than just writing a story.
The Bossy Series is one of my favorites. I love how the story builds upon one another. It’s it twisted in mystery that I try to figure out before the ending. This is a page turner and a great way to kick off 2021.

Bossy Brothers: Luke by J.A. Huss is the latest installment in the Bossy Brothers series. In this latest story we find Luke, Zach Boston, and new character Posie Payseur forming quite the love triangle. To use the term “steamy” is an understatement that does not truly explain the intimate encounters these three have. At first many things appear to be coincidental, but is that ever the case in a world where The Company, The Way, or The Silver Society exist? No matter what the name the secret society goes by I think by know loyal J.A. Huss readers know they are one in the same and at the core pure evil. This story wove in past characters from previous books to bring everything together into a cohesive story that gives longtime readers some answers. Truly amazing! I have enjoyed the ride J.A. Huss.

MY MIND IS BLOWN. Another phenomenal read by JA that once I started reading I couldn’t put my kindle down. Luke & Zach are absolutely sexy together and add in Posie and your kindle will set on fire. The secrets that were revealed, blew my mind. I didn’t see it coming and I’m so glad that this book wasn’t predictable. I’m going miss the Dumas & the Boston’s but it ended perfectly. Another 5 star phenomenal read that everyone must one click.

Well, here we are. The last of the Bossy's, featuring Luke Dumas and his special friend, Zach Boston. Posie Payseur rounds out their 'dynamic relationship', and the games begin - a day trip on Luke's yacht - no harm in that, right? But this is JA Huss' world and we are just along for the twists and turns (and some gasps, and some laughs...and a few happy tears). This book brought worlds together in the best way, even if there is still a stone or two unturned. Loved it!
January 7, 2021
The Bossy/Dumas stories wrap up with this book. But I don't think we will be done with these people any time soon. Luke and Zach's book is able to put all the pieces together for both families, with the addition of a pink haired reporter named Posie. The sex is good, as always, although for a gay relationship I could have used some MM. But I'll never complain about MFM. Anyway, the book really takes off around 70ish% and doesn't slow down until it's over. I reread that last 3/4 because A LOT happens in just a few chapters. I'm hesitant to say more, as I don't want to spoil anything. But I'm curious to see if anything will come out in her future books about consequences of actions taken in this book.

Secrets, answers, and unconventional love...
So much goes on in this book. First Luke and and Zach who have been together for a while get their “love story”. Yes, these guys may act like friends with sometimes benefits who party all the time, but they are also a couple with insecurities and communication issues. Enter Posie, who has her own agenda and secrets she doesn’t even know. And just when you think OK this romance is angsty but HOT, Bam, the other shoe drops. And the baddies of the overarching storyline show up and our maybe triad hits rough waters. At least they have the Boston brothers and the Dumas family behind them. And we get one heck of a thrill ride in this romance turned conspiracy thriller read.

Wow! Just wow! I can’t believe this is it, the last book in this series. I loved seeing Zach’s story come to light with Luke and add Posie to the mix, you know that this relationship will be nothing but complicated. These three are explosive together, their story is suspenseful and captivating. You do not want to miss this one.
