Nope. Nope. Nope.

so, full disclosure, a couldn't make it past chapter 5. At this point, the female lead character is on a chapter-long rant about doors.

DOORS.

Literally not kidding. The previous chapter was all Joey complaining about having lots of money and power and sex.

Yeeah, sooo, I hear gunshots every night. I'm the OPPOSITE of these two people and even I don't whine like this.

I have no idea when the story starts to build momentum, but I've been bored for four chapters now.

Ain't nobody got time for that.

Which is why I'm pissed to have fallen for your positive reviews and lost more money. AGAIN.

Now, I'm sure that, at some point, these two souls meet and their worlds get flipped upside down. The problem is, there's no movement. JA Huss is begging you to get to know these one-percenters first. She wants us to like them. But it's taking too long. These may be the most boring 5 chapters I've ever read. Certainly the most boring I've ever spent my hard earned paycheck on.

If you're fans of the narrators, they do a stellar job. There were a couple of grammatical errors, but they blazed through them.

Yeah. I'm too bored to finish this review. You get the point.

MIND-BLOWING

What I love love love about Julie’s books are their uniqueness, their insane unpredictable intricately weaved plots and the intense chemistry that surrounds her heroes and heroines.. however, with this outstanding story, Julie created it four-fold in a very hot polyamorous MMFM steamy ménage à quatre romance. But that’s not all.. there’s a father’s deep need and longing to love and protect the five yr old daughter who had been cut from his life birth and there’s a power struggle between him and the only father the doted upon little girl has ever known. And there’s a precarious balance of suspense, mystery and seeing right from wrong. But that’s not all.. the tightly fused relationship between these three best-friends was delicious as their sexual tension teased, taunted and burned bright. But that’s not all.. there’s a strong lone heroine with a mysterious past and secrets surrounding her.. but all she wants to do is to find her future and belong. And in this steamy erotic story, the lucky lady finds it times three within the loving, tight embrace of three best friends. But that’s not all.. the complex sinister threads surrounding the lavish and mysterious ‘giving of money ceremony’ from book 1 is further explained and expanded on.. however, it’ll teasingly reveal only a few of the puzzle pieces and cunningly conceal the rest. Worth a credit? Oh yes, yes, yes.. this story delivered much more than I was expecting.. more of everything JA Huss - more emotional feels, erotic feels, conflicted feels and feels.. and feels.. and feels. It’s a book for your heart as well as your senses as hope springs, desires ignite and the flare, fireworks and fallout burn bright. Your anticipation grows, your mind is caught, your hopes soar and collide with your heart and you’re desperate to hear more. Joe and Jill were, of course, brilliant at bringing this talented author’s words and characters to life, perfecting the emotional

The table has turned!

I am an audiobook and reading addict. There have been many books that I can't wait for it to end, but every book by JA Huss is never long enough. She sucks you into her world and you just don't want to leave. This is a polyamorous relationship that feels so right. She is the missing link they never knew they needed. The sex scenes are hot and move smoothly that you can picture them. The mystery in this series is exciting and I can't wait to see how it all turns out. Joe Arden narrates awesome as always. Jill Redfield's narration was excellent too. Her male voices are done well.

Bossy Brothers Saga Continues

We continue the saga with Joey, the middle brother. Joey has never been really connected to the family business, he doesn't even know what the family business is up to this point. What he does know, he has a daughter that was basically stolen from him by her mother. Until one day this daughter calls him, and mom is missing. Now Joey must prove he's a stable influence and not part of the Boston Brothers business. Enter Brook, his 'girlfriend' and professional liar. They are making the perfect home for Joey so he can get his child back. Joey is also VERY close to his two BFF's. From the moment they entered college together, their relationship has crossed every boundary. Joey, Hux, and Wald are closer than brothers, they are one family. We also learn more about the Boston Family Business and Johnny's part of it, why he sent Joey away, why he wants Joey to leave Maize alone. EXCELLENT narration. Jill Redfield's narration is very real and raw, like she's baring her secrets. Joe Arden - well he's Joe Arden, he makes you believe anything you hear from him. There are MMFM scenes in this book - if that's not your thing. It's not the center of the entire book, but an element. Worth a credit = yes. As a stand alone or as part of the Bossy Saga.

Fantastic

Joey is the 2nd book in the Bossy Brothers series. Listening to a book is always such a different experience than reading it. I loved the story even more after hearing Julie’s words come to life. The Bossy Brothers are trying to figure out what the heck is going on as are the people in their lives as well. We get some answers to the mystery but there is much more to learn. As far as the performances, Joe Arden is always impeccable and one of my favorite narrators. Jill Redfield, I wasn’t as familiar with. Considering she had to voice A LOT of male characters, I was very impressed with her performance. Each of them had just enough difference that you could tell if it was Joey, Huck, Wald or another guy. Just wow! I recommend this audio so much!

sexuality

I didn't like the sexuality in the book but other then that I liked it.

Better Than Book 1

For me this book 2 in this series is better than book 1. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this story because book 1 was just meh. These are two of my favorite narrators, but this is my first time hearing them together, and they were great. Joe is a top favorite of mine and Jill is also a favorite, despite the fact that I think her voice is dry and nondescript - which coincidentally is how I would describe my own voice, haha. I haven't gotten to book 3 yet, and was really hoping Joey would get his daughter back in this book, but maybe he does in the next book. Things I didn't like about this book are the rants. They are way too long, I mean who goes on and on and on and on and on about a door? I've listened to over 80 books in the last year and I've NEVER skipped through chapters, but I had to with this book. I couldn't handle those ranting parts in the chapters. The other thing I didn't like were the women who owned the beauty company from book 1, thank goodness there wasn't much of them in this book. Okay going to recharge now since I always seem to need to after a book from JA Huss, but she sure can weave a story.

Loved

1st time listening to this author and am excited to go back and read previous books. Loving the Ceres can't wait to go to the next book.
