Brandon
Anytime I heard someone speak of the boom, I laughed. 
Surely only crazy people believe they can fall in love as soon as they lay eyes on someone. 
I thought it was all in their heads until the moment she walked into my office asking for a job. 
The instant my gaze locked with hers, I knew she was mine, and I would do anything in my power to protect her.

Aurora
I never thought I would be applying for a job at a strip club, yet there I was. 
When the stunning owner offered me a job, I thought taking off my clothes would be the most nerve wracking thing. 
When I walked in the next morning, I found out I wouldn’t be stripping, I’d be working side by side with him.
It doesn’t make sense for a man like him to desire a woman like me—a woman with baggage and a past. 

One phone call changes everything and I’m forced to realize that until Brandon, I might have had it hard, but with him I will have it all.

WOW… Until Brandon was so amazingly fantastic!

Second Chance Holiday is one of my fav Aurora Rose Reynolds’ books, and every since Brandon was introduced there as a child/teen, I’ve been hoping we’ll get November’s stepbrother’s story. So, when I say that he was finally getting his own story in this Happily Ever Alpha Kindle World, Until Brandon became one of my most anticipated books of this round!

My heart stops, the feeling of fullness fills me. My stomach clenches just by looking at her. My breathing soft and slow. She walks in smiling at Joe first and then at me when she sees me.

She stands up, holding her hand out to shake mine. When her hand slides into mine, my heart stops. It’s stupid—I know this—but she fits me perfectly.

OMG, I couldn’t have loved Brandon and Aurora’s story more than I did! This was only the second time I’ve had the pleasure of reading Natasha Madison – first was in her collaboration with ARR herself – and she truly knocked it out the park with this novella, and. Brandon was everything I was hoping for an more, and his BOOM… WOW! It was the perfect Mayson style BOOM! How could it not?! He is for all intends and purposes, a ‘honorary’ Mayson, after all. Now he got the BOOM to match! 😉

Then she walked into my office and my world tilted, my heart finally started beating with a purpose, and that purpose was her.

Aurora came into his world, and I adored how he recognized the meeting and her for what she was: his ONE! Of course like the good Alpha he was, – and we could so much see Mike’s integrity and passion in him, and know immediately that he followed his stepdad’s in all the good matters, becoming a good man – he wanted to immediately take Aurora for his own, caveman instinct and all, that comes with the Boom, lol, but he took into consideration her family and life situation and tried to ease her into all they were meant to be. I loved him even more for that!

My hands go to my hips because I want to charge her, grab her, and finally taste her. Consume her, claim her.

Don’t get me wrong, he still got his Alpha way, but with a bit more restrain, and a lot of love and care. I adored seeing not only him taking care of Aurora – she so deserved it after her last couple of years of pain and suffering – but also her little sister Cassie. He was absolutely swoonworthy material, and the way he easily introduced and took over the father figure role, just made me melt! The bit of suspense element just gave us even more dynamic – and a chance to see even more of the rest of Mayson men –
and their sexy times, sure spiced way up, the already ever present insane chemistry Brandon and Aurora had going from the start. Perfect Romance formula! Awww… Until Brandon really was the PERFECT story to fit with the rest of the ARR World, and that Epilogue… The stuff dreams are made of! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

“I was so scared to face the future,” I tell him. “So scared of how tomorrow would be.” I smile at him. “The unknown and facing it alone.” I squeeze my arms tighter around his neck. “Until you, that is. Until Brandon.”

Aurora thinks she was the lucky one, but every single day, I see exactly how I was the lucky one.

When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…
