There was no doubt about it, Mason McKenna was mean.

"I suggest you run back to Daddy before I do something that he should have done years ago."

Out of all the McKenna brothers, Mason was the worst. An overbearing bully with an insatiable hunger for dominance and a need to bend me to his will. He thought he could control me, both in body and mind, but I refused to be intimidated. He may rule his family, but he will never rule me.

Then one day he put his hands on me, and now I’m lost. I’m struggling to fight that intense, forbidden attraction—a devastating hunger that only he can feed.

BOUNDARIES
noun
A line that marks the limits of an area; a dividing line.


Due to an ancient grudge over the boundaries between their two estates, the McKenna and the Taylor-Joy families have been at war for decades.

Pretty but spoilt troublemaker Amy Taylor-Joy has thoroughly enjoyed provoking the beast that is Mason McKenna for years—all six-foot-three savage inches of him. A mouth-wateringly well-built alpha male, who has always lived and played by his own rules.

To Mason, Amy has been an annoying thorn in his side since he can remember. As a woman, she’s now so much more. Her interference in his family’s personal affairs is the final straw. A lesson needs to be taught, and he is the man to do it. He will break down her defences slowly; his methods will be brutally carnal.

As a child, he took her in hand; as an adult, he will take the tormenting beauty one inch at a time.

Will Amy be able to fight Mason’s determination to punish her for past sins, allowing her darkest tormentor to take her heart and tear down her boundaries…

BOUNDARIES CAN BE READ AS A STAND-ALONE BOOK, OR AS PART OF A SERIES.

Loads of chemistry and fireworks. Amy is a spoiled little shrew at times and gives as good as she gets. Mason is your typical burly, alpha male that doesn't take any crap. They live in rural Norfolk on farms next to each other and the families have fought over a boundary that sits between their two properties for years. Amy is definitely a lead female character that you will love to hate but she does redeem herself (with Mason's assistance) at the end (her sister Jenna needs to slap her). Will get you hot under the collar and begging for more. Really well written with dialogue that flows and is realistic. Hot rought (but consenting sex). Great story with a few twists and turns along the way. All the men in this book are fit as f**k and all the girls stunning. Proper escapism. Read this in two days!

This was a DNF for me and I think just the writing style wasn't vibing with me. A couple of things as constructive feedback for the author:

-Excessive overuse of italics in paragraphs
-Repeated phrases like "my non-existent biceps"
-Repeated and overused phrases

Could do with another round of edits.

Great hate to love romance

This has a bit of it all. Enemies, possessive touch her and die, strong heroin, family bonds, feuding families...I love the intensity of the two, the cockiness he possessed and her strength... Just a great book that I couldn't put down

I wasn’t sure what to expect going into M J Tennants Norfolk series, but I should have known I would absolutely love it. At this point, if she asked me if I would like to read her shopping list, I would say, “I adore lists,” and read happily.

I’m hooked already on the characters and their stories. MJ has certainly turned up the heat in more ways than one. Warning ! this one is going to pull on the heart strings and there may be tears. (The certainly was from me !)

I absolutely can’t wait for the next book, I’m dying to know how the characters stories unfold. I’m hoping everyone makes a return in the next !!
