Review:
This is my first book by Rebecca Zanetti and I really liked it! It was really good.
It had tons of tension, chemistry, hot scenes, thrill and lots of action.
This was my 7th buddy read with my bestie.
What is this book about:
This book is about Josie. She met and married Shawn, a marine, in a whirlwind of passion. They where together for a few weeks, and married for a few months before Shawn disappeared without a word. For two years she didn't see him or hear from him until she got a phone call from the hospital. Shawn was there but he has amnesia. He doesn't remember anything about his live, where he's been or why he left. But when looking at her, he knows that he loves her and that he isn't letting her go a second time. Especially not with people targeting Josie to get to him.
What did I like about this book:
I love Shawn. He is seriously hot! I really have a thing for a man in uniform.
I really like Josie as well. She is very sweet, kind, smart and stronger than she looked. I liked that she didn't just took shit but dealt with it and threw it back. She is resilient.
I found the premise of this book really interesting. While the next book won't be from Josie and Shawn's pov, the underlying story is far from over. I can't wait to see where it goes!

Favorite Quote: “I always figured somebody was meant for me, and when I found him, I’d know it. The second I saw you in the alley, something in me recognized you.”
Review:
I couldn't wait to dive into this book! I wanted to know how the brothers story would continue.
I liked Matt in book 1, his protectiveness of his brothers and his willingness to do anything for them make me really like him. It does help that he is hot though haha.
What is this book about:
This book focuses on matt, the eldest of the Dean or Grey brothers.
Matt is on the hunt. He's hunting down the surgeon that put the killer chips in his and his brothers spines. He has to find this surgeon and make her dismantle and take out the chips before the chips decide to play exploding tag with their spines.
On his search for the surgeon he meets Laney. He was intrigued with the sassy, curvy blonde.
As part of his cover he starts working in Laney's bar as a bouncer and Bartender. The more time Matt spends with Laney the more he wants her and the more he realizes she is hiding something. Something big, but what.
The fact that a serial killer has also decided to come to town isn't really helping Matt keep a low profile.
Will Matt succeed in finding the surgeon and save his and his brothers live or will he find something he never thought he would want or find.
What did I like about this books:
I really like Matt! He is a good guy beneath all that hard, alpha male. I love that he is so protective of his brothers and that he would do anything for them.
I really like Laney as well, she didn't just role over and let Matt boss her around.
I really like that this book kept me on my toes. I really tried to figure out what secret Laney was keeping, and it didn't make me to happy that my bestie guessed it.
There where things I did guess but some things I really didn't see coming!
Can't wait to dive into the next book!

"He was an experiment created in a test tube, maybe without a soul, perhaps without any hope. But for a brief time, with this woman, he'd felt whole. Real. Good. Even if they just had the night, he wanted that feeling again."
"Never alone"
Review:
Another great book in the series! One of the things I love most about these books is that they keep you guessing, they through you for a loop, and the suspense is so good!
Man I love these sin brothers, they keep getting better and better. And even I thought it wasn't possible, they got even hotter!
What is this book about:
This time around it's Nathans, or Nates turn to tell his story. He and his brothers are still searching for a way to dismantle the kill chips that are in their spines. Time is running out. And drastic times call for drastic measures. For his brothers, Nate tracked down the person he never wanted to see again, the person that broke his heart, the only person he ever loved, Audrey.
The daughter of the crazy scientist that created them all those years ago.
What did I love about this book:
Oh sweet, sweet Nate. He tried so hard to protect his brothers when he was younger, to give them a sense of normalcy. He still does.
He is a tough, dangerous, big alpha man but underneath that is a sweet heart.
I really like Audrey, she had some serious guts. She has a good sense of morals.
I feel bad for her, her mother is a nut job and the commander is a sociopath, it wasn't easy to live under their thumb.
Some of the things they did to her really make my skin crawl.
Can't wait for the next book, my boys need to live and be happy!

“I can’t offer you forever, Pipe. But I learned the hard way when I was young that life is full of moments, and if you get a good one, take it.”
Review
I was so excited for this book! I had to know what happened to Jory. To get to know him. And I have to say he is the biggest sweetheart out of all of them.
He has a though exterior but he has a kind heart.
What is this book about:
This book focuses on Jory, the youngest of the Dean brothers. They thought he was dead but he survived. Now he has to find away to not only get out of the hell hole he's being kept but he also has a week left to find a way to save his brothers from the kill chips in their spines.
Piper is brought in to save Jory from the chip in his spine. She believes that Jory is a traitor, that he is the bad guy. She believes that what the commander is doing is good. But little by little Jory is chipping away from her defences. Not only that she is learning that not everything is what it seems.
Will Piper be able to save Jory, and in turn can they save his brothers or will the dean brothers be no more...
What did I like about this book:
Short answer, Jory. Man what a guy. He's really swoon worthy. Very charming.
This is the first book where I didn't immediately like the leading female. Piper really had a holier than thou attitude, despite not being a 100 innocent either. She was really blinded by her childhood fantasy that she didn't see the truth staring her in the face. She was really naive. The hard thing is that while it did annoy me, especially because she was mean to Jory, I do understand why. I understand what causes her to believe what she did.
Overall it was a great book, full of thrill, excitement, hot scenes and plot twist I didn't see coming.
I'm sad the sin brother story is over. I'm going to miss these guys.

Favorite Quote: "baby, this is just you and me… It’s better than anything else in the world"
Review:
I was very excited to start this book. It is a spin off of the Sin Brothers series, which I love so much. It is a standalone series but I would recommend reading the Sin Brother series before had. Lots of things will make more sense if you do.
What is this book about:
This book is about Ryker. He is a pure, hard ass Alpha male. He is a private investigator. Him and his two brothers, Heath and Denver, run an investigating company called Lost Bastards, that focuses on finding the lost.
Denver, Ryker and Heath aren't biological brothers but the pain they suffered at the (orphan) boy home made them brothers in anyway that counts.
Ryker met Zara, who is a paralegal, on a case and they hit it off. Anytime he was in town they'd hook up and have fun together.
One particular murder case brings Ryker back in town and this time it's for a longer period of time.
Having a serial killer on the loose isn't the only issue in town. Zara's friend Julie is in the middle of a nasty deforce, which puts Zara in a tight spot as her company is representing Julie's husband. But Zara is willing to help Julie in anyway she can but unfortunately it's attracting attention from the wrong kind of people.
Not only that, Ryker has a past he spend a long time trying to get away from and it looks like his past might be catching up to him.
So as you can see both Ryker and Zara have enough going on while trying to figure out what they want from each other. Keep it casual like they have been or try for more?
What did I like about this book:
I loved being back into the Sin Brother world. Rebecca knows how to create a complex and intreging world and story line. She kept us guessing which kept us on our toes and I liked that.
I found the underlying story very interesting and intriguing, it kept me wanting to know more.
I like Ryker but he needs to town his alphaness down outside of the bedroom. His "it's my way and only my way" ticked me off a bit since it showed that he didn't really respect Zara and her wishes. He almost bullied her into doing what he wanted to do instead of discussing it. It almost felt like he thinks woman, or just Zara, was or is incapable of doing anything for herself, like we or she is a delicate flower. I liked his protectiveness and his dominating side in the bedroom but he needs to learn how to communicate and show some respect to someone else's wishes even if he disagrees.
I like how Ryker is with his brothers. It's clear that he loves them and would do anything for them and vice versa.
I like Zara, she is smart and brave. She is also very caring and loving. She does have some spunk but I would have loved to see her stand her ground more. She would stand up to Ryker and tell him to back off but she caved to his wishes everytime. Which show's Ryker that he'll get his way anyway and doesn't teach him to respect her wishes.
Overall I really liked this book and I can't wait to read about Heath and Denver!

Review:
I love this book! While I really liked the first one in this series, I like this one more. While with Ryker and Zara it felt more like a 'me Ryker, you Zara' kind of thing. You know my way or the highway, and not really a team effort. It wasn't that way with Heath and Anya! Anya is a strong character, she sticks with her believes and her morals and doesn't cave when it's about something she really believes in. Heath was a little less head strong than Ryker was, but make no mistake he is still an alpha male hahha.
While this series is a standalone series, I do recommend reading the Sin brother series before this one, because it sets up the world this series takes part in. And it gives more background on certain characters.
By the way, the synopsis gives away a spoiler for the book.
What is this book about:
This book continues where the last one ended. This time the focus is on Heath and Anya.
Anya is the sister of the FBI agent we met in the first book, Loretta. For some reason the copper killer, a serial killer that targets redheads who have a tie to or have a family member that is part of lawinforcement, has his sights set on Anya. Anya has a background in criminal psychology and profiling but for the life of her she can't figure out why the killer is so focused on her.
After a personal loss, she becomes more determent than ever to bring the killer down.
Heath was taken with the smart and sweet red head, but he didn't expect her be as strong willed as she was. He sure didn't expected her to through him to the wolves. While Heath and his brother where already involved with the Copper Killer case, Anya's actions take it to a while other level, exposing them to Sherriff Cobbs and Dr. Madison. How did she do that you may ask? Well to lure the killer out and piss him off she told him, through tv reporters, that she and Heath are to be married and that they are opening a location of Heath and his brothers detective agence in snowville. Painting a nice red bullseye on all their faces without realizing it....
What did I love about this book:
Besides the characters, the suspense, the thrill, the sexiness! There was something I was confused about but I think a little note at the end of the book cleared that up.
There was something I saw coming and thought to myself, come one guys this is obvious. It's obvious the killer did this and not some random other person.
But other things I didn't see coming at all. It was very unexpected, not a 100% shocking because it does make sense but unexpected non the less.
I liked Zara and Ryker more in this book, they seem more like a team in this one and not just an alpha and damsel kind of thing.
Heath and Anya work so well together, I absolutely love the two of them. The chemistry between them is so good but you can really see them working thowards each other. Heath has allot of issues he needs to deal with and you can really see he does that.
I can't wait for Denvers book, I felt so bad for him. He really deserves a happy ending. I'd love to learn more about him.
I hope we see some more of the Sin brothers in the next one as well and I really hope they take down Madison once and for all. I just can't with that woman.
I like that we got hers and Sherrif Cobbs pov in this series, gives some more insight in what they are doing.
Overall another A.M.A.Z.I.N.G read by Rebecca!

Favorite Quote: “I don’t regret a second. Not one moment of everything we’ve been through. We found one another. Thank you for being my brothers.”
Review:
This is the final book in the Blood Brother series, and it wraps up the Sin Brothers story as well. I was very excited about this book because Denver really intrigued me in the other books. I wanted to learn more about him and get to know him better. I'm happy to say that I got what I wanted from this book! Who knew Denver had that commanding/domineering side in him. It resulted in some really hot scenes.
Noni was a really sweet girl that showed some real backbone when it came to something that matters to her.
It did take me a bit to get into the book for some reason, not because of Denver or Noni perse but I needed to feel some more spark between them or something. I don't really know and it doesn't make much sense because it started with a bang. It could be because it's the last book and I didn't want it to end. For some reasons some things took a bit getting used to for me because in my mind Denver and Noni where younger than they probably are.
What is this book about:
Denver and his brothers, Heath and Ryker are still on the run from Docter Madison and Sherrif Cobbs. And by that extent so are the Sin Brothers, Jory, Matt, Shane and Nate.
So their objective was staying low, don't draw any more attention to themselves than necessary, find and take down Madison and Cobbs. You can imagine that Noni plastering Denvers face all over the internet to find him doesn't really help the situation.
Noni has no idea the mess she got Denver in and therefor brought to her own doorstep. She needed to find Denver, not to get back together with him after he broke her heart, but because she needs help. Her friends baby was abducted and she is desperate to get Talia (the baby) back.
Denver tried so hard to get over Noni but seeing her, being close to her makes him realize that he can't get over her. It really puts him in a though situation because he knows it's most likely he won't escape his past in one piece. He will have to choose, find his own happy ending or secure a happy ending for his brothers?
What did I love about this book:
I loved seeing the entire story come together. I really liked learning more about Denver. The guy has skills and they are hot.
I liked Noni and the other characters in this book.
The story has a great ending and I'm really happy with it. I do wish Madison and Cobbs got to suffer more but I'm glad it's all over and all the guys can move forward. They deserve to be happy.
I'm sad it's all over though.
