Hot Summer Reads: Why The Stonewood Brothers Deserve a Reread
I can’t be sure, but Shain Rose might have been my gateway drug to my spicy book addiction. Don’t get it twisted, these books come with trigger warnings and I did not give one single F.
I actually read most of Shain Rose’s books a few years ago when I was first diving back into my love of reading. Something about these characters stuck with me, and although I am not normally one to reread a book, these were worth the trip down memory lane. The Stonewood brothers series is the first in a long list of crossovers. Each is a standalone, so I suppose you could just try to pick your favorite from the blurb, but why would you? Who knows, maybe I will need to read them again in a few years?
Inevitable
Stonewood Brothers #1
Aubrey
The day I lost my parents was the day he saved me.
Jax Stonewood—my best friend’s older brother.
He was never meant to be my savior. My first real love.
And certainly not my greatest heartbreak.
I spent years getting over him and now he’s back—the nation’s most streamed artist and eligible bachelor… but I’m not falling for him again.
Jax and I are done.
Jax
The day I saved her was the day I lost myself to her.
Aubrey Whitfield was only ever supposed to be my brother’s best friend.
Not my life. Not the one I would die for.
Definitely not the one that would break me.
She’s built up walls to shut me out but I won’t leave her behind again.
Our souls are welded together.
Aubrey has always been mine. I’ll make her remember…Whether she likes it or not.
We’re inevitable.

Reverie
Stonewood Brothers #2
Vick
Ever austere, billionaire businessman, Jett Stonewood, refuses to even crack a smile while vacationing in paradise. I’m determined to break him down by introducing some fun into his life.
If we have a bit too much by sleeping together, so be it.
The rude, overly practical man soon reveals that he can also be caring—thoughtful, and before long he’s the one wrecking me.
He’s drawn me into a complex dream I’ll have to find a way to forget when we return home.
The problem: Jett acquired my company.
He’s everywhere now, a constant reminder of the unattainable.
Jett
Victory Blakely needs a lesson in safety precautions. Not that she would follow it if our recent tumble in the sheets is any indication.
She’s too peppy… so naive it’s dangerous. Someone should break down her fortress of positivity, teach her that warnings aren’t meant to be invitations.
The solution: I’m the man for the job. I’ll Infiltrate myself into her life and let the disassembling begin.
The little pixie flutters around in reverie. Let’s see how well she flies when I reduce her fairytale bubble to dust.

Thrive
Stonewood Brothers #3
One kiss.
One little misstep.
It completely changed everything.
We’re best friends, colleagues, the actor and the assistant.
One little kiss shouldn’t change that.
He shouldn’t change that.
Except now I’m flying to his small hometown, leaving my city behind to walk through dirt roads in my stilettos just for him.
Spending a month with him to get this movie filmed should be easy for us. I’ve been his PA for years with no hiccups. We always conquer every obstacle and we have a friendship strong enough to defeat even the toughest odds.
This should be easy except…
That kiss.
Neither one of us has forgotten it.
Our one and only misstep.
Will it have us barreling toward love… or disaster?
