Loved, loved, loved it!
So because of books 1 and 2 I had some preconceived notions about Boone. I mean it was from his big brothers POVs. Oh my gosh, no! This man was a cinnamon roll, and a definite contender for a top book boyfriend. He steps up in a big way (can't tell you why cuz, spoilers) and his big heart is just!!!!!
I loved Jaxi (omg cutest name ever). She was a little banged up emotionally but it didn't stop her from doing what needed to be done. (Again, can't say, spoilers).
There's also another big character in this book who'll steal your heart. And their infatuation with Wade (Boones bro)?? <3
I don't necessarily think you have to read book 1 or 2 to enjoy this one. It would explain Boones family more.

What a fun and hilarious meet cute! I adored Boone and Jaxi and their slow burn romance. The Mason family is one I'd love to be a member of, and Boone might just be my favorite. And what a twist! I love how author Adriana Locke creates families and characters that support and love each other. One of the taglines I saw for Reckless was Heart, Heat and HEA and I thought that was perfect!

Reckless is the third book in the Mason Family series by Adriana Locke. Adriana is the queen of small town romance and family. There are five Mason brothers. Funny, handsome, sexy, swoony brothers and it's Boone's turn. We've met Boone. We love Boone. Now I'm in love with him. He's funny, smart, silly, loveable, loving and just an all-around nice guy. Even when he catches a stranger in his house who broke in through the window. Wrong house. Right girl. Boone is a big believer that everything happens for a reason, and Jaxi falling into his life is the answer to all his questions. She might not be there to stay, but soon it looks like she can't be anywhere but in Savannah. With Boone. Jaxi is scared. This is a new life and she's not use to things going her way. She believes if something seems too good to be true, it is. But Boone is going to prove her wrong. Sometimes when something good happens to you it because you deserve all the good in the world. I love the Masons. So much. Every brother for different reasons. Siggy, their mom, is mom aspirations! Overall, I loved every word. I laughed, teared up, laughed some more and my heart is just happy!
P.S.: Rosie, I'm with you. Wade, I love you.

Boone is the ‘good time’ Mason. He’s fun, charming and up for anything anytime until Jaxi turns his world upside down. Their attraction to each other is undeniable from the start. Life decides to add a little extra to their budding relationship in the form of the cutest little girl. I can picture Rosie perfectly & I absolutely love how she has all of the Masons wrapped around her tiny finger.
The little family that Jaxi, Boone & Rosie have created is truly beautiful….but Adriana left me with questions y’all!!
I NEED to know more about Hollis & omg Oliver. July can’t get here quick enough.
Favorite quote:
“Let her think about things. A little time apart never hurt anyone.” “Then what?” “Then, tomorrow, you Boone swoon that sh!t.” —Boone swoon!! I love it

Reckless is a sweet romance, that started with an accidental break-in that turned in to a HEA. Jaxi has not had the greatest life and it leads her to not be so trusting. Boone is sweet and an all around great guy. I loved that Boone was willing to help Jaxi without even thinking in a moment she needed most and was willing to prove to her that he was not like everyone else in her life.
Stella Hunter and Wen Ross gave a great performance in this story. Wen was good at portraying Boone’s sweet and swoony personality. Stella was fantastic at bringing out they emotions and insecurities Jaxi has from her troubled past. I enjoyed both of their performances.

I adored the first 2/3, and loved the characters. Just felt the ending didn't really work?

This book was so good, I wanted to read Boone’s story for a while and it didn’t disappoint, Boone was amazing and I loved how caring and funny he was. From book 1 I’ve loved his banter with his brothers and how they’re all close.
Jaxi was a wonderful heroine too, she lived some difficult things in the past and it was hard to understand that she may deserve good things, but she met Boone at the perfect time. Their chemistry was there from the start and I loved their interactions, especially their moments with Rosie.
I loved the story from the beginning, Boone was so easy to love and I really enjoyed how much he cared for Jaxi and Rosie, he had the biggest heart and meeting Jaxi was the perfect thing for both of them. Jaxi learned to accept things without giving back and that she was worth it. It was an amazing story and now I’m dying to read more of the other 2 Mason brothers.
