Man of Few Words
Nicolas Brown is the epitome of speak when spoken to. He doesn’t volunteer information or even his time. He’s one that observes from the shadows more than one that craves the spotlight. His attention has fallen to a certain woman, and she is one that enjoys the game that’s being played. However, he’s not the only chaser.
Ross McIntyre is the woman you see often but never recognize. In her line of profession, she blends right in with the crowd but stands out to one. She’s as sweet as they come but has violent tendencies when pushed. With a mind like hers, unpredictable is an understatement.
Neither one wants to be anything other than loved by the other. When it all comes down to it, the distance between them only made the bond that much stronger. Thinking alike is a thrilling experience.

I'm not sure about this one
The story just kept going off the rails for me. I could not find a place to connect with the story. It was mindsplitting. See what you think. 2.75 stars.

This book? A time was had lol. Nico is unhinged but then Ross pulled up matching his crazy, and I was weak. They’re both on the same unwell ass energy 😭 10/10 would recommend!

If silent but deadly was a person it would most definitely be Nicholas Brown!
Nico definitely got Xander beat 😂 I thought he was crazy but Nico is nuts! I loved every minute of him & Ross’s story! They matched each others crazy so well! He manifested the life he wanted with her & didn’t stop until he got it! Ross was literally just as unhinged as him! She didn’t play about her man & as independent as she was she was Nico made her feel safe enough for her to be submissive & I loved that!.
I hated to see Rena go through what she went through with her husband but Nico to the rescue 😂 he didn’t play about his family or any of the people around him! That man stood on business & did what needed to be done!
I loved seeing Ross tame him & give him exactly what he wanted in the end! I love a good happy ending! This was such a good read!

The Mortician and the PI
Entertaining . The MMC Nico just as mannish as his big brothers. He stalked from a distance but was never to far away. The long distance made for an interesting twist. The time jump made the fast pace love story more palatable. FMC Ross was her own boss which gives her a certain level of confidence that was fun to read. I would recommend this read.

Loved it. Nico is my man, my man, my man. I loved how he didn’t about the ppl he loved. Great read!!

This one was okay as well. The stalking with them both got me at the beginning. Ross and Nico are both nuts 😂

These Brown brothers are something else! Xander was definitely on his unhinged behavior tip, but Nico is not far behind. How are you following and watching a woman from the shadows for a year, taking care of her and such, but you all have never had a conversation? You just decided she was going to be yours? 👀 See..... just crazy!!
Well, Ross ain't much different I guess as she just rocked with the ish Nico was putting down! 😤 When Nico finally revealed himself, these two just fell into the crazy together, and she claimed that man! 👀 It was amusing to see these two try to one up each other with their possessiveness, and wild behaviors.
At the end of the day, Nico just wanted to love and be loved, as he was deprived of motherly love. Yes, he had Kitty Mae, but it is not the same as having your mother dote, love, and nuture. you. Ross was it for him, and he poured all the love he had for his mother into her, even if it pushed him into the zone of obsession. I don't know what it is about these book baes with these behaviors, but I can't get enough of them. 😂

Silent and Unhinged Part Ii
Ross and Nicholas were both absolutely nuts, lol! I don’t know what I expected going into this book, but it was definitely entertaining. I still think Xander’s book was a bit better overall, but Nico’s story was wild in its own right and honestly… kind of fitting.
The fact that they both stalked each other for a whole year, and neither thought it was certifiable was CRAZY work. But ultimately it was good to see Nico get his happy ever after like Xander. I just wished there was a little more drama in the book.

3 ⭐️ Easy Quick Read . There were some parts that didn’t make sense to me lol that is why I gave it 3 stars . It was very similar to the first book in some ways and kinda repetitive . I did absolutely love the two main characters Nicolas and Ross .

a great read
They were delulu but I was here for all of it. I loved this read and found myself engulfed in the crazy. I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next. It ended up being a cute story and I’m here for that.

Idk what it is about how she writes the brown men but I can’t get into the stories. Like I don’t mind an obsession, I enjoy an unhinged character or two but the rest of it sis so childish most of the book. I like Nico he’s chill do his lil stalker thing Ross lost me though. Here my thing if you set it up as a mutual stalking where they both been gathering intel the overly possessive and questioning attitudes don’t make sense. She was stank when he was on the phone even tho she knew he had a sister, so the context clues should’ve told her that. Next up tearing up Nico office cus she couldn’t get in touch with him. Like are you a toddler lmao cus WTF?? You this PI Investigator Sherlock Homegirl if you will, put on ya trench coat and solve your man mystery. I couldn’t finish this because I knew it would piss me off. Like how you a stalker but don’t know about his occupations? Had the blueprint to his building but didn’t know he be going on side quest??? Cmon now Connie

Q: What do you do when you realize someone is stalking you? What if they are interested in you but are not ready to approach you? What do you do!?
A: Use your P.I. skills and stalk them back while delusional falling in love with a man you’ve never exchanged words with 😂😂😍😝!!!
My girl Ross realizes she’s was being perused by a man of few words but very impactful actions. For 492 days he tracked her, showed up where she was, sent gifts 🎁 but never said a word😂😆. She liked what she saw so she accepted his invitation for crazii behavior lol and did her research on him and prepared for their day of collision.
Nicolas was absolutely unhinged and saw Ross smile once and said yes, she’s my forever …. After all this time he finally makes his presence known and baby was it a world win love. To already love a woman u have never shared air with is crazy 🤪….
I loved their relationship so bad, it was a little delusional lol, but the way Ross brought peace to Nico with her presence was amazing and I loved it for him. Nico made Ross feel like the most special and beautiful girl ever even without talking to her and once they finally did he was not coming up off her, attitude and all.
I love how Ross didn’t change herself for Xander or anyone else. She stuck to her Guns and was just as unhinged as her man. Their communication was beautiful too because she didn’t allow him to be in his feelings over anything. When there was a misunderstanding or something going on she would force him to talk through it and come to some common ground so it never disrupted their peace and he needed that. This was a good time definitely. I truly enjoyed it.
The only thing I wanted a little more of was the story of his parents. I would love to know more about their mother and who Xander doesn’t talk about her much or with Nico.

Nicolas aka Nico
This man is very different than his brother Xander, but not too different! What had me speechless was the beginning of Nico & Ross relationship! Listen I wasn’t ready for what I learned -🫣! Ok so check it, this entire time I thought they been together but just keep it private. Well I was wrong! Not only were they not together these two never met! I’ll leave that here do I’m not telling too much - lol.
Nico, was definitely a man of few words, but when he needed to speak he did and when he needed to pop off he did that too. This man was definitely a quiet storm! He played no games when it came to his family, respect, hood money and his woman! My guy was unhinged and he was calculated, if that makes sense! His heart, focus and love was for one woman. A woman he stayed in the shadows to protect and provide for over a year and when that times came to get make hisself known he approached her - Ross! From that day on there was no turn back!
Ross! My girl just as unhinged as Nico- 🤣! Listen not only did she know what was happening, she did the same thing - watching him! When I say I was floored, that’s exactly what I was - lol! The love she had for a man she’s never met was diabolical but it worked for her! What I emptied the most was he didn’t out allow her to change to be with him. She was able to remain true to herself.
Xander and Zara, is still with the shenanigans and it worked for them. Both Xander & Nico relationship is true to the statement - I am my BROTHERS keeper!!
Again, there’s a lot more that can be discussed, but don’t want to give the book away. Just know even a man with a few words deserves love and to give love, but the action will always shine! Love this book down! Plan to dig more into this authoress work!

Unhinged and Weird Part 2
❤️My 2 Cents❤️
This book had me like “WTH” from the first page. I’m glad the author brought back in Xander and Zara, however Xander from what I read is still psychotic and even more unhinged than in his own book…Anywho Xander’s brother Nicolas “Nico” Brown has a lady crush, but he never actually meet her in person which gave me the stalker creepy vibes. I mean how does one give a woman everything from designer bags and custom shoes without even talking to her? He just follows her around like a stalker and a creepy person. Nico is for sure giving off his brothers crazy ass vibes about a woman being his before she even knows it. I’m not even going to get started the woman Ross Mcintyre. That heffa is also bat shit crazy to be falling for a man that she never met only received expensive ass gifts from him and she was literally ok with him following her around..Im floored at this point. 26 pages is enough for me to say “This book is stupid as F**k.” After finally finishing this book, let me tell you that it got a little crazier and a tad bit weird. The one thing that I can say that pulled at my heart strings was when Nico took Ross’s sister and kids in. I mean after her husband beat her within an inch of her life, Nico took swift action with his brother Xander and took care of him. Nico moved Ross’s sister and kids to the family compound into his guest house. I loved how Nico thought and how he moved when it came down to the woman he loved, it was just his delivery that made me say this book was way beyond normal.

I was so excited to finally get Nico’s story because although he isn't as open with his crazy as Xander I knew he was low-key unhinged and I wasn’t wrong! Connie Easton really has me out here worried about my sanity because Nico is bae! Ooooo I love this man dowwwwn😫
The way this book started I was slightly confused and then the thrill of the chase finally clicked and I have to give this author her flowers because this storyline was superb! Everything about Ross and Nico was beautiful if not a little toxic. However, they thrived off of each other's lunacy and recklessness which was hilarious if not a little troubling.
I’ve realized I love unhinged men and I'm here for a woman to match that energy. I hated that this book ended I wanted more. The character's development, trauma, and acceptance of each other were what kept me glued until the end. I would definitely love to see more from them in the future because my girls Kelis and Rena need happy endings!

very interesting
This story was very interesting lol… very delusional… but interesting nonetheless.
Nico Brown basically stalked his girlfriend Ross McIntyre for a year and some change from a distance before changing that one night while she was out on a job as a private investigator. I thought this was a very fresh perspective on dating lol because Ross knew what he was doing the entire time. Why he did what he did, we don’t know but hey 🤷🏾♀️
Though tame in comparison to his brother Xander, Nico’s screws were also missing and he is definitely considered an unhinged book bae. 🤣 there were definitely some moments throughout the book that had me laughing and I do like how Ross had an unconventional career and a slightly unhinged side to her as well.

Hidden In Plain Sight!!
Nico is a very private person. If Ross didn't come up to his.place of business and raise hell Xanader would still say she was a figment of Nico imagination. Like how is he going to date someone for a year and don't anybody know? Yarena thought that she was crazy too. It's nothing like having your person to yourself just in case it doesn't work. Nico spoke his daughter into existence. He got everyone off his wife even though they were only dating. She took her profession as a private eye seriously, until actually met Nico. Nico had to take out Yarena's husband. Nico and Xanader wants to live in their wives skin if they could. I hope Yarena gets her own book.

I don’t know how Connie comes up with these scenarios but I am screaming of laughter!! I thought Nico was a little normal but he’s definitely worse than his brother. And Ross is way more than Nico! Homegirl was dead ass delusional AF!! There’s no reason why this man stayed in the shadows like a damn creep for a whole year!!! The only reason I didn’t give this book 5 stars was cause it was definitely unrealistic AF lol. At least Xander was a little bit realistic… just a little! But I don’t see how you fall in love your stalker! I can’t stop laughing. Now Nico with redeemed himself with Rena. He was not playing around and I appreciated it, but Connie is wild for this lol 😂 I did thoroughly enjoy it!

Whewww, chile. Man Of Few Words by Connie Easton? Yeah... this one had me cheesin’, blushin’, and clutchin’ my pearls ALL at the same time. This is book two in the Brown Brothers series, and while Xander in Man of the Year had us hollerin’ with his wild, unhinged energy—his brother Nico? He’s just as crazy, but cool with it. Blue pill instead of red. Same chaos, just delivered in silence.
Let’s get into it.
Nico Brown is the definition of lowkey obsessive. Like… this man stalked Ross for 492 DAYS. Let me say that again: FOUR HUNDRED NINETY-TWO DAYS. And Ross? She let him. She was into it. The tension between these two? Immaculate. They were watching each other from across rooms, studying each other’s routines, knowing they belonged together before either one said a word.
Ross is no passive player either. She’s a whole private investigator, so best believe she knew everything about Nico before he even made his move. When they finally collide? Oh baby. Fireworks. He’s ready to make her his wife, have some babies, and build a life. Real quick, real intentional.
But what I loved most about Nico is that underneath the cold, quiet exterior, he’s just a man who wants to love and be loved. He’s TTG for his woman and he does NOT play about her. Ever. And Ross? She’s soft with an edge. Hyper-independent, a little stubborn, but deeply loyal once she feels safe. Watching them navigate their love—with all the bickering, banter, and balcony spice (if you know, you know)—was a whole experience.
This book gave:
💙 Soft stalker-core (you just had to be there)
🧨 Tension so thick you could slice it
💥 Alpha meets alpha energy
👀 Quiet obsession, loud declarations
🔥 Spicy scenes that made me want to step outside
Connie Easton has the pen on LOCK. The pacing, the dual POV, the buildup, the payoff? All of it hit. If you loved Man of the Year, this is the perfect follow-up. And if you haven’t read either—run, don’t walk.
5 stars. No skips. And now the real question: are you team Nico or team Xander? Red pill or blue pill? 👀

Those Brown brothers know exactly how to find their equal when it comes to partners, and Ross was exactly that when it came to Nico. They started their relationship off in a very interesting and untraditional way. Nonetheless, it worked for them, and once they were face to face they were all in with their relationship.
Nico definitely met his match with Ross, and she definitely challenged him in certain ways. However, they both turned out to be what each other wanted and needed in a partner. They were so cute.
I'm also hoping that Rena, Ross' sister, falls in love again and is worthy of her time and energy. Overall, it was a good read.

Not for me
Took me a while to get into this book. I wasn't with the neantherdal, controlling disguised as protective attitudes. I wish somebody would make me give up a career I love just to make them feel better about me always being home, preferably carrying babies. The insta rush love, the weird getting upset for anybody of the opposite sex to look at your woman, this didn't do it for me, couldn't relate at all. What was the so called trauma that made Nico so...weird???? He came off more as supremely insecure with abandonment issues who really needed some therapy, his jealousy wasn't cute at all, it screamed he needed psychiatric help.

I’m going to be realllly honest. I was all for it at first and really excited because i loved the first one and fell in love with Nico in the first one. His book started off with a a bang but then a shift happened and i wanted to put it down. I didn’t like the insecurities, like they were possessively insecure when it came to just talking to the opposite sex. It just didn’t make sense to me. The writing switched and became repetitive. And then there were things that were brought up that weren’t touched again. Like the Christian dude. What happened with the round 1 round 2 thing? lol the way it ended just left me mad that I didn’t put it down when I originally wanted too.

Man of Few Words
Let me go on record and say, "You have to watch the quiet ones." Xander is crazy, but Nico is craziest. He doesn't say much at all. He sits back in the cut and waits. He stdusies until he knows everything there is to know about a person.
He saw Ross and decided she was the woman for him. Stalking much! Yeah, he learned everything about her just by watching.
This was a great installment to the first book. It didn't have many comedic moments, but it still was a good story.

The Brown brothers are crazy as hell! Nico isn’t as crazy as his brother Xander, but he’s up there. In a creepy cute way. I did like how Ross was able to keep up with him and keep him on his toes.
There was a few times I didnt care much for the style of writing. I don’t how many more times I could read “she/he don’t play about ___” there was also moments when things would get brought up and then never mentioned again.
Nico and Ross are like onions. There are so many layers to them. It was nice to watch it unfold.

Love from a Distance
Nico is the quiet companion to his brother Xander. Always playing in the background, even with his love interest, he's taken a liking to Ross. Ross, an investigator with a feisty attitude, is also intrigued by the allure of Nico. The book goes into how their love fosters for one another, and provides glimpses of Xander and Zara. The book is mostly plot driven, as we only get a glimpse into how each character comes to be who they are. Overall, this was a good read and it has me wishing I had a "secret" admirer.

I was excited about this boo because i loved Nicos supporting role in the first book.
I couldnt connect with the story. The story was all over the place and hard to track. I got through it but i was a bit let down.
In my head Nico found someone quiet, maybe anxious and/or an overthinker that he has to show up for,reassure, and take the mask off for. Someone that will cry if he yells or speaks to her too hard. Seeing as though hes the man of few words that lurks in the shadows and always on a mission the conflict would be that he has to figure out how to live both lives.

Nico and Ross were crazy in love, quite literally. I mean, that basically stalked each other for an entire year and change. She fit in so well with the Brown Family because sis was as crazy as Xander. She destroyed Nico's office as Xander watched and smiled the entire time because Nico wouldn't pick up his phone. He was on a job off the grid btw, then she shows up to Grandma Kitty birthday party like she didn't go Brandy Webb!! Connie Easton created some monster characters in this quest for the Brown Brothers finding love. Happy Reading Y'all!💋
