Relentless

a Standalone Office Romance (The Mason Family Series, Book 4)

By: Adriana Locke

Narrated by: Wen Ross, Amanda Stribling

Length: 10 hrs and 18 mins

Publisher's summary

From USA Today best-selling author Adriana Locke comes a forbidden workplace romance between a fiery new hire and her smoldering boss.

“I had to sneeze.”

I should’ve taken her insurance information and driven off like any reasonable CEO with places to be would.

She crashed into my car, for heaven’s sake. Because she had to sneeze.

What did I do? I didn’t get in my car and drive away if that’s what you’re thinking.

Nope. I stuck around. I could suggest I stayed because she needed help, but the truth? She was really, really hot.

We became fast friends. Then friends with benefits. Before I knew it, we were involved in an illicit office romance that had me fumbling through a drawerful of panties to get a Post-It.

It was supposed to be easy - a fling, if you will. A dashing millionaire hero (*adjusts tie*) and a beautiful (stubborn, frustratingly independent, hell-on-wheels) damsel in distress. (Don’t tell her I said that.)

It wasn’t supposed to be forever, but we did want a happy ending. (Pun intended.) We could’ve made it work, too.

But one of us overcomplicated things with the L-word. And the other? They omitted a truth that changed everything.

relentless

I had been looking forward to reading more about the Mason Family and Adriana Locke did not disappoint!

Relentless was such an enjoyable read and I loved Oliver and Shaye. They had excellent chemistry and banter, and they are easily some of my favorite characters that Adriana had written. The narrators did a great job and really fit the characters well.

The relationship and character development were really nicely done. The plot was well paced, and I liked getting to see the other Mason family members, too.

This is a standalone, but I definitely recommend the whole series. They are all great reads!

Relentless

Wen always pulls out the best voices to bring these amazing heroes to life.

i’m never disappointed with and Adriana Locke audiobook.

Love love love!!! 😍😍😍

*Sigh* Oliver 😍. I mean, enough said, right? He totally stole my heart after Shaye sneezed 3 times & hit his car 😂 (those multiples are brutal!) That whole scene just did it for me. That was it, I was hooked! I loved how Oliver and Shaye interacted with each other, how they slowly let their guard down with each and let each other in. Of course, nothing is ever perfectly easy, so they’ll have to be an issue or two to deal with. But love can win all ❤️ I loved their story!! And I do love Wen Ross when he narrates this series. And Amanda Stribling does a great job too. And now I CANNOT wait for Wade’s!

Life is better together!! With love!!

Love these narrators!! Love this book so much!!
I read it first and listened made me fall in love even more!!
Relentless is another great Adriana Locke book I fell in love with!! Oliver and Shaye story is one of honesty and trust and how our pasts truly affect us and how we grow and try and change.
Oliver and Shaye have an instant connection- literally from a car accident. Both are attracted to each other. Then the universe puts them together again. They have great chemistry. But both struggle with letting go of the past. Even when they do talk about what’s happened to them, life still gets in the way.
What I loved was how their friends and family are both there for them. I love the Mason family. I loved Shaye’s friends who are there for her.
How Oliver and Shaye get to happily ever after is a journey that’s makes you realize you don’t have to do life alone!

Relentless

Relentless is the 4th book in the Mason Family series. This book is told from dual perspectives by Oliver and Shaye.

Oliver and Shaye meet when she has to sneeze and bumps into his car. They head off in opposite directions, but Oliver can't stop thinking about Shaye.

When Shaye goes in for an interview as an assistant she discovers she will now be working for Oliver.

As they are working together they start to have feelings for each other. However, both Shaye and Oliver have had something happen in relationships in the past that can put a damper on their feelings.

Can they get past their past? Will working together end up tearing them apart? Will they get their happily ever after?

I really loved Oliver and Shaye. This whole series is great so far and I loved every minute of this book!

Those two are the best!

Come on… their meet cute was the best! Oliver is so smitten at first sight and I couldn’t get enough of him! Shay is trying to rebuild herself on top of trying to not fall for her boss! The banter between brothers is phenomenal and the bond the brothers have is the best!! A must listen!

Great office romance and more

I was definitely looking forward to more of the Mason’s and this did not disappoint. Oliver and Shaye have both had hard times in their lives and have left them difficult to trust others and wary. As kismet starts to put them together, they can’t escape their attraction. I loved watching them navigate their attraction and eventual trust. I also love the Mason’s and loved the boy’s banter back and forth. We also get to see other characters from Adriana’s books show up in this story (you don’t have to have read the other books, but it is just a bonus for those who have). Another great story by Adriana Locke and I can’t wait for Wade’s story. I loved these narrators.

Sooo Swoony

I loved Oliver and Shaye in Relentless all because of a sneeze an amazing relationship was formed! Oliver is soo amazing and Shaye will make you laugh out loud!!!

Sweet and Sexy Heartfelt Romance

"I’m sorry I didn’t meet you sooner so I could have loved you longer.”

Relentless is the fourth book in the Mason family series and it’s Oliver’s turn to find love. When Shaye hits his car after she sneezes, they feel an instant attraction to another. Then when Oliver hires Shaye to be his executive assistant, the sparks fly.

The banter and chemistry between Oliver and Shaye was on fire. I loved watching them navigate their attraction with their job situation.

“When I’m with you, I ….I don’t feel like my world is about to be split in two or that I have to look over my shoulder.”

Trust was a big issue throughout this book. Shaye was a sweet girl who was struggled to trust after being betrayed by those she was closest too. Oliver has also been hurt in his past relationship so they both had to learn to let go of the past, trust each other and build a future.

I have both read and listened to Relentless and I enjoyed it even more when I listened to it. The narration by Wen Ross and Amanda Stribling was perfection. They were fully immersed in their characters and really help to bring the story to life.

This was a sweet, romantic, sexy story full of heartwarming moments and relationships with just a bit of angst. I loved revisiting the Masons and I can’t wait to see Wade fall in love.

The Southern Boy Charm in Full Effect

You know I typically listen to audio books at no less than 1.25 -1.5 speed, but with this Southern drawl in my ears I couldn't bring myself to speed it up at all.
The Mason boys are back in my ears and I couldn't be happier. Oliver is so typically the older brother in so many ways and his run in with Shaye is so literal and perfect. These are two independent powerhouse characters that you just know need to learn to lean on someone. I love how Oliver and Shaye met before the possibility of an in office meeting for a job happened. The build up and slow burn for these two is full of heat.
