I just looved being able to binge read about all the Cook brothers, you get loads of laughs, meet awesome characters, get to know the Cook family along with their friends and lovers and see the highs and lows as each brother finds the loves of their life. In this box set you get:
Work in Progress - Jamie and April are the perfect match and the way the meet is hilarious, then there is Aprils son Axel and her mother in-law Betty and how the dynamic between them all. I loved not only seeing April make Jamie work for their relationship but also getting to know everyone.
Work Violation - Ronnie and Jax challenge each other and after avoiding each other for so long when they finally get together, wow there are so many sparks it's a fire hazard. Unfortunately the timing makes things a bit complicated as Jax is now her Professor so they need to cross their t's and dot their i's, but you can't account for everything and also learning about Ronnie's past as well as meeting her parents ... ugh do they really deserve the name parents?!
Working Back - I got a little torn at the beginning of this one with how Faith waltzed in and what she said to Bryant, and then he is counter offer I was like "what the hell?!?!" Faith and Bryant have undeniable attraction and you want them to get back together, however I was so wary of Bryant getting hurt again (cause I am team Cook all the way no matter what lol). These two do truly love each other so seeing them trying to work through coming back together was great.
Hard Work - Cohen and Skye, now this is a fun read, you know the whole if I say it enough I will believe it ..yeah this is these two who think they can keep it casual no deep feelings and no way will they fall in love. They aren't fooling anyone especially those around them and the banter and quick wit between them has you laughing and rolling your eyes while you see them fall deeper and wait for them to finally realise what they really mean to each other.
Working For It - Ezra and Gillian sure do know how to announce she is pregnant and that just the start of things, they have done everything backwards and now Ezra realises he wants more than just a regular hook up with Gilly and it's not just because she is carrying his child. The fact you don't have to have read the other books in the series is great but it does also make you want to read them and meet all the Cook brothers! This is a great read that gives you plenty of laughs as Gilly and Ezra go through plenty of awkward moments, hormonal changes, learning to take a chance, falling in love and seeing what having amazing and funny friends and family can be like.
Working It Out: Oh how I floved this bonus, I loved Marcy and Rick from the get go and how full of life and love they are even after raising their hoard of kids so getting to see them one on one was an absolute treat. And then there is Axel, gosh darn it I couldn't love that kid any more if I tried!!
