Picture
BARRETT LANDRY has it all.
Power, prestige, and plenty of women, the dapper politician’s life is pretty phenomenal. But in the midst of the biggest campaign of his life, he needs to focus. The last thing he can afford is a distraction.
 

ALISON BAKER is a work-in-progress.
As a single mother to HUXLEY, she’s rebuilding life on her terms. She’s focused on family, faith, and a future for her son that can’t be taken away. Putting her child first means not being careless, no matter what.


A chance encounter forces Barrett and Alison to redefine what they really want out of life. But everything comes at a cost ... and sometimes, even for love, it’s a price too steep to pay.

4 Star Review by Ashley

Once again Adriana Locke has rocked me happy. Sway, the first book in her Landry sibling series brings the humor, heat and heart in equal doses. I fell for both of the main characters from the first moment I met them and loved reading this one in dual POV. I loved getting both sides of the story and seeing the different reactions to the same situations.

Alison Baker. That woman had me rooting for her from page one. She is strong and as sassy as she is sensitive. She hides her frustrations and fears behind sarcasm. And for good reason too, she has been more than burned by the actions of others in her past. She has to look out for number one, her son Huxley. But all it took was once chance encounter with the sinfully sexy Barrett Landry to shake up the stability in her life. WOW oh wow Barrett- I don't even know where to start with him. Swoon isn't enough of a word for his yumminess. He is fiercely loyal to what and who he holds dear; namely his family. I loved his relationship with his siblings. It was realistic and had the teasing with love vibe to it that you can only get with family. But what I loved most about his was how taken aback he was by Alison.

There was no denying the chemistry between them. Even when Alison tried to Barrett was having none of it. Seeing how he went out of his way to show he listened and cared and making time for her amidst both of their hectic schedules made me fall for him even more. The sweet, quiet moments between them are what sealed the deal, though the big gestures didn't hurt. But when someone who I shall not name here puts everything Barrett has been building- both professionally and personally at risk, it is game on. The gloves came off and yet another side of Mr. Landry was revealed.

So much happened in the last quarter of this book that I had no idea what was going to happen. My head was spinning just as much as Alison and Barrett's. Kudos to Adriana Locke- I can honestly say that I didn't see the twist that changed it all coming and I can usually spot them coming. Sway made me laugh, sigh, swoon and smile. And that ending- le sigh- it was everything I was hoping for from page one but didn't know if I was going to get. It was a fantastic start of what is sure to be an amazing series. The siblings are all so different but they are family- they come together and take care of their own. I absolutely can not wait for more from this family and series.
