ARC received for an honest review

You should probably read Beautifully Brutal before starting Beautifully Loyal, just as the story lines to cross over a little.

We met Leyton, Max Adorite's right hand man and second in command in the first book. I knew back then that they had a close relationship, but not how it came about.

Leyton has been in love with Max's sister Ashlynn forever. But due to his loyalty to Max, he has never made a move on her. Oh,so much stubborness in one man!

Ashlynn wants Leyton, but is with Jase - who also wants Leyton. Oh Ms Edwards really does know how to write an intriguing menage. The UST between all three is off the charts! They tease and drive each other to distraction.


You could feel Ash's frustration coming off the page - why doesn't Leyton do anything. My heart was breaking for both her and Leyton as they tried to keep their distance.


There is so much adoration, devotion, love between our trio, that you just know that when they finally get together it is going to be smoking hot.

And this girl here is still fanning herself! An ice cold shower just does not do the trick!

I loved that we got more of Max and Courtney, as well as some of the Sniper 1 Security boys. Ms Edwards just gets that family dynamic right, the love/hate relationship we all have with our siblings.

I really think that the Southern Boy Mafia is becoming my favourite Nicole Edwards series to date, and I can't wait for what happens next.
