Review: Reckless

"Locke is back and at her best with another heartwarming Mason brother to fall in love with." -- K. Bromberg New York Times bestselling author

Reckless, an all-new swoon-worthy standalone romance in the Mason Family series from USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke is available now!

“How did you get in here?”

That’s not what you want to hear when you’re staring into the sea-green eyes of the hottest man you’ve ever seen. Yet I suppose it’s a fair question, considering I’m an uninvited stranger standing in Boone Mason’s kitchen.

If you think that’s bad—just wait. It gets worse.

This charming and wealthy playboy, who can’t pay his bills on time or find his way to the grocery store (but we all have flaws, right?), is sweet. Confident. Playful. He’s almost perfect. And, to make matters worse …

He’s smitten with me.

I know what you’re thinking. You’re rolling your eyes. You’re assuming this is some opposites attract situation—or that maybe we can be friends who turn into something more.

How can this be a bad thing?

Well, it’s simple. I’m not the kind of girl you fall in love with. Just to be sure, the universe reminds me of that in an unforgettable, in-your-face kind of way.

I might have broken into Boone’s house, but I won’t let him break my heart. I won’t break his either. There’s too much on the line to be that reckless.

My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My review:

Reckless is the third book in the Mason Family series but I read it as a stand-alone and do not feel like I missed anything.  This was a new-to-me author and I am so glad I got the chance to read this book.  It started out funny and some sweet and touching scenes that really made the book.  It was fast-paced and one of those books that are hard to put down.  The characters were genuine and easy to relate with.  Jaxi’s younger sister Rosie was adorable, and I loved how Boone’s family opened their arms to welcome her and Jaxi.

Nothing had ever gone Jaxis way.  She had just sold all her stuff and had taken a job in sunny Hawaii as a nanny.  She was supposed to spend a week with her cousin Libby, but last-minute Libby went with her husband on a work trip.  Being discovered by Libby’s swoon-worthy neighbor when she makes the mistake of climbing into the wrong house was just another day for Jaxi.  Then she finds out her sister whom she had not seen in years is dead and left her daughter Rosie to Jaxi.  Jaxi must ditch her plans for Hawaii and quickly come up with a plan so she can keep Rosie.

Boone Mason was the youngest Mason sibling and known as the charming, fun, but an unreliable brother.  He has a big heart and falls for Jaxi right away.  He does not know why he jumped at the chance to help Jaxi, but he knows he wants her in his life.  She makes him want to be a better person and be a reliable one.  But can he convince her to have faith and believe he will not let her down like everyone else in her life has?

I really enjoyed reading this book and am so glad I discovered Adriana Locke.  The Mason family was wonderful, and I loved getting to know them.  I look forward to reading the first two books in the series and future books for the Mason family.

I received an ARC and am willingly leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
