Holy.Effing.Shit...if I could give this book 10 stars I would Bravos, kisses and kudos to you Ms. McClendon for giving this book to the world!!!

Ok...(((deep breath)))...I'm trying to organize what I want to say, but that only makes me forget things I want to mention and makes me have the grammar of a 5th grader, so I'm just gonna wing it!

This book...affected me. It really did. On so many levels. It literally has EVERYTHING I love about a fantastic book. Let me name off the wonderful things it included.

~Almost no spelling or word errors...that seems to be an issues with well written books lately.

~Music...the music world is interlaced within this book so well, I can't even stand it. The songs they reference in the book are well known, so you can listen to them as you read or at least reference them, to get into the characters headspace at that time. It definitely adds to the emotion you feel when reading. You don't have to be a "country fan" to appreciate the theme, but you have to love music and appreciate the "southern way of life"

~Humor...If a book is nothing but the heavy stuff, it can feel overwhelming. I found myself so engrossed in the book, that I was randomly laughing and didn't even realize it. I LOVE sarcastic banter with the characters, and this book had it in spades.

~Love and Romance...Dear Lordy, did this book have it! On all kinds of levels...Love between family members and siblings, love in a menage relationship, love for ones self, love for your best friends, love for ones you've lost. It was incredibly touching and moved me.

~The Tears...  photo brookecryingaftershooting_zps4989d970.gif
Sweet Jesus, did I cry with this book. I try to never do spoilers in reviews, and you can get an overview of the book in the blurb for it, but this book had me, like, snotty all over crying at one point. My daughter even voiced her concern when she saw me sniffing behind my kindle LOL. It's a good release, so do not go past about 40% without tissues handy.

ALPHA FREAKIN' MALES Holy crap...you have all the alpha males you can possibly choose from in this book! Ex-Marines, Country Music Stars, I mean DAMN...and they are fan your panties hot to boot!!!

And finally...the SEX!!! These alpha males have some dirty little mouths in the bedroom, and they are ALL about pleasure for their ladies. Loving their woman up hard, and putting her first. It was just pretty damn hot!!

The way the book played out (a long journey for the characters) in my opinion, reminded me of the book Taking Chances. The plots were nothing alike, but when I was reading this one, that book somehow came to mind. It was just an incredible story filled with erotic dialogue, love, loss, country music, hope, grief and love again. I would recommend this book to EVERYONE. It will definitely stay with me for a long while.

This book was absolutely unbelievably amazing. A little cuter than I expected, but still no less amazing. I was really riveted by the way that all of these characters came together in the book to mesh into one big family, and the sex scenes were pretty darn off-the-charts hot. However, what really got me the most about this book is the tragedy that changes Brooke forever. I had a feeling that something big like that was going to happen so I wasn't completely shocked but it didn't stop me from bawling my eyes out this morning in bed reading about it. That's really all I'm going to say about it...I don't want to post any spoilers because it is so amazing, but it is such an amazing story of grief and loss and heartbreak that you feel like you are right there with Brooke watching her suffer. Make no mistake about it. This book is BROOKE'S story. It does delve into little snippets here and there on the twins and on her friends but this is all about Brooke from beginning to end. It basically starts (if you count the backstory) when she is sixteen and loses her parents and has to raise her three siblings and run a ranch in Oklahoma on her own and spans until she is almost 23. I haven't read many books like this that span such a long period of time but this one does an amazing job with it...and with the time span you really get to see Brooke grow from a young girl forced into adulthood too early to the incredible woman that she grows into being, circumstances being what they are. And she is an amazing character. I couldn't help but have a picture of Lady Antebellum in my mind when I read this book and I will probably never hear "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" or "Strawberry Wine" again without thinking of this book. Very clear, crisp writing, nice detail in the sex scenes, and definitely some interesting twists to the menage relationships that were new and refreshing and definitely different. Loved it! Get your Kleenex ready if you read it...I needed a towel!

I need to rant!



This story will stay with me for a long time it made such a deep immpression on me. Give this book a chance, I can't believe not alot of people don't know about this book yet but they will I'm sure of it!!!!

I have read this book twice, it was so emotionally good! I probably will re-read it again some day. I didn't expect the emotional roller coaster I went on and I haven't cried this much since the last book I read of hers, "The Barter System". She is an amazing author that surrounds her reader with so many amazing emotions and makes you feel like you are right there with the characters. I didn't expect to feel what I felt with Rex and I loved that I got more info and stories within the story on the secondary characters! I hope Shayne writes more about these characters because I am certainly feeling a book hangover because I fell in love with all of them!

Have you every read a book that you didn't want to put down at all. Well this is one of those books I started it while at work and hated everytime I had to stop and answer the phone. This is a must read by a great author. If you like to read Shayne's books then do your self a favor and grab this one. If you haven't read any of her books then take a chance on a great read.
I keep going back to this book and rereading parts of it, it's that good
So far I've read it 13 times

Ok, so this is one of those books you can't go into too much detail because any little thing can give the whole book away....I must say, I loooooooooove Brooke! She is absolutely perfect and a breath of fresh air! She is just stunning! Everything about her is inspiring...

Her sibling are adorable! Shayne McClendon, you have done such a wonderful job letting us get emotionally invested with all the characters in the book...even her best friends and their significant others....I mean this book just completes you! You are able to share a little bit with each character (since its a 3rd POV) which worked perfectly for this book...I felt like a part of them. I felt myself experiencing all the emotions they did too! It was great...

A definite must read! There is love, loss, hot sex, hot country singers, hot marines, friendship, family and more! This was a beautiful book and I would definitely love to read more about everyone of these characters!

Congrats to Shayne McClendon!!!

WOW! I thought this was such a sweet book, then I kept reading. I laughed and I cried my way through this book. I loved the characters, maybe it is something about identical twin boys. This is my first book by this author but most certainly not my last. This is a must read.

This is not for the faint of hearts.

This was a tough Read Emotionally for me.

It starts out with Brooke Auditioning for a place in the band Broken Bronco.Her talents get her catapulted into stardom and fame. She plays second fiddle to nobody and is a talented artist. We are guided effortless through the changes in her life and the lives of those closest to her. You share in their Successes, failures, loves and loses.

Shayne has filled the characters with such rich body you will swear they are out there today living there lives. There are many hot Erotic scenes and each one uniquely different than the other. These scenes connect the characters emotional and physically. These scenes are full and rich with Passion and desires. They are exactly what the characters long for and leave you wanting for yourself.

I may be biased for saying this but i have read almost everything this young author has produced and have yet to be disappointed. Shayne is talented and vested in her writings. She has a gift for drawing you in and feeding you with delightful surprises and turns of events.

I say this watch her grow keep your eyes on her. Shayne is turning out wonderfully full bodied Erotic tales and you will want to invest in every single one!!!

I highly recommend this but caution be read to be taken for a wild Bronco Ride!!!

This book was awesome!! I came across it by chance looking for a book for a reading challenge and got lucky. This book was well written, great story and awesome characters. I will warn you that this book will have you crying but it will also make you laugh, sigh and you will not be able to put it down. I started it and finished it in less than a day. It is definitely not your typical menage book but a book that gives you a little bit of everything. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
P.S. Grab a box of tissues You will need them!!!

Well, where to start? This second book that I have read by this author and I guess the one word that comes to mind is WOW! That Brooke was super strong and brave to keep her family together. I just fell for Rex and my heart just broke when he passed. Glad the twins grew up and turn into wonderful men. And the laughs Sydney is a hoot. So you want hot love. laughs and a good cry this is the book. Made my top 3 that I have read this year. MUST READ!!!

This book is amazing. I laughed and I cried. I have never cried so much with any other book I have read. I thought The Barter System was good. Yes to Everything blew it away. If you haven't had a chance to read it I suggest you do so with a box of tissues. Could not put it down.

Brooke is such a strong character!! I absolutely LOVED this book!! Once I started reading this I could not put it down!! The strength of the characters comes through in so many ways especially Brooke! Shayne has a way of creating the strongest characters that just grab you by the throat and won't let go! I laughed, I cried(OK.... sobbed) and then I laughed again. This is a MUST read if you like strong female characters and the men who love them.

So...it's been several days since I finished reading this one and I keep going back and forth on my rating. Bottomline, I have decided I really did like this one. At first I didn't think I did but then I keep thinking about Brooke and the twins and Rex...and I really loved them all.

My biggest complaint about this book--the length! It was just too long. And I wish we would have gotten more of certain parts of the book and less of other parts. But overall, I really did like it.

Throughout the book, I kept trying to figure out what direction it was going to go. Let's face it, going in I had NO idea this was a book. At all. Though having read her other book The Barter System I shouldn't have been surprised. This must be SM's "thing".

Now...how to describe the book?!?! This is where it gets tricky...saying too much will ruin the experience of reading it. I know that makes no sense. There was a lot going on....and it goes in one direction, only to veer in another at the end. And if I really sit and think about the plot of the book--it's not at all plausible really.

I'm not doing a very good job of making you want to read this book am I??? IDK, if you're looking for something different, that's well written....has some HOT sex, has hot alpha males....great characters, good dialogue....then read this book. :) But be prepared....it's a LONG one. It had a little bit of everything really....drama/angst, happy, sad, HOT sex!

And it was a standalone with a HEA. Yay!!!

Shayne McClendon has done it again and I have to say that this is my ultimate favourite of hers. This book has everything and can read this time and time again and still feel very emotional over this story. I can not recommend this book enough and if asked I would award it 100 out of 10 (that is how much I love it)

This is written just excellent, I had the most wonderful experiences reading this book. I felt overjoyed and happy and then I was crying my ugliest cry ever, I thought my heart was sinking to the bottom of my tears when I was crying. But gradually the good feelings came back. Brooke is super strong and grounded at heart. Read this story go trough a whirlwind of emotions. But after reading it I realized I can come out of something ugly, and have a positive outcome and have a life changing experience.

This story is a well-done attempt to capture the essence of a small-town-girl-turned-celebrity. Plenty of fans, stalkers, concerts, tours, paparazzi, Marine bodyguards, the whole shebang.

What you might like best is how genuine and courageous Brooke is and how she maintains her moral fiber throughout the colossal--and often heart-wrenching--changes in her life. There's a pulsating energy that follows her and you'll fall for her easy-going twang from page one.

The central problem is all the side stories introduced mid-plot. Too many characters take center stage and steal Brooke's spotlight. Too many love-at-first-thrust romances. Too many heroines that might just be more perfect than Brooke is.

Part of this failure is owed to the omniscient POV. A good romance focuses on the H/h, shoves you deep in their heads until you're feeling every thought and emotion. The head-hopping narrator in this story is all over the place, keeping you at an arm's length from this huge cast characters. And because SM doesn't use dialogue tags, most of the dialogue includes the characters' names as way to keep track of who's talking to who. You're beautiful, Brooke. I love you, Brooke. Pass the salt, Brooke. No one uses names over and over in natural dialogue. It might make your head throb.

Despite all this, it's a well-written love story...well, four love stories, and if you like page after page of heartfelt declarations of I-love-you's and you're-the-one's, then you'll love this.

While The Barter System is still my favorite read from Shayne McClendon. I have to say Yes to Everything is my second. This book is filled with Angst, Love, Lose and Sex.
This is not your typical love story and it's not your typical rags to riches story. It is so much more. You get lost in this book. With every page you feel every word. The characters become flesh and blood. Each one is significant to this story. I could go on and on about this book but it's the type of book that takes you on a journey and if I give one part away I could ruin it for you. So with that being said I will leave you with thisYes to Everything does not need to be on your To Be Read a List. It needs to be on your OH MY GOD I HAVE TO READ THIS LIST.
If you a Shayne fan the book is one of her Best. If your not a Shayne McClendon fan you will be when your finished reading it. I give the book 10 ⭐️'s
