The Buckhorn Brothers Box Set: Sawyer / Morgan / Gabe / Jordan
From New York Times bestselling author Lori Foster, four classic tales of the Buckhorn Brothers in one hot boxed set!
Sawyer
The only doctor in Buckhorn County, Kentucky, Sawyer Hudson knows a thing or two about saving lives. But when he rescues beautiful Honey Malone from a car wreck and nurses her to health at his home, he finds himself dreading the day she's well enough to leave...
Morgan
Buckhorn's big, bad sheriff, Morgan Hudson, wants a wife--one who's undemanding and content with small-town life. So why can't he stop thinking about Misty Malone, the brazen city girl who's just found herself on the wrong side of the law?
Gabe
Gabe Kasper, the heartthrob of Buckhorn, can have any woman he wants--except for prickly, uptight Elizabeth Parks. All she wants is an interview about Gabe's recent act of bravery. And though he considers himself far from a hero, he'll answer her questions in exchange for kisses...and more.
Jordan
Veterinarian Jordan Somerville thinks he wants a woman who's a paragon of virtue. But when he meets single mother and exotic dancer Georgia Barnes, he's suddenly tempted to break all his own rules...

I both like and dislike these stories..the guys are just to much..a bunch of men getting in each others business all the time leaving little to no privacy would make me run screaming for the hills no matter how hot they where..
and cut-offs on a man... this is what I see
it's just NOT sexy..either he looks like an idiot or he's gay
The bare chest and open jeans I can live with
I like the chemistry between the characters but they are just to perfect an butting in all the time... I'm not a big angst lover but a few flaws don't hurt and while the ust was pretty good the overall steam factor was mediocree

These were easy reading novellas and quite
enjoyable. They were all formulaic and the premise was the same. Boy meets girl, boy wants girl, girl wants boy but neither want anything permanent. Love blossoms. Not terribly complicated but fine for an afternoon read.
I didn't find myself loving any of the characters. Don't get me wrong....they were all very likable but with such similar characters it became very repetitive.

Setting: family home on large acreage, lake on one side, lots of nature, near small town of Buckhorn, Kentucky with about 700 residents, large summer tourist traffic. 4 adult brothers (with 3 fathers, and 1 tremendous mother) plus 16 year old son of one, living together – and perfect specimens of manhood – in looks, in generosity, in consideration, in fun, in support, in values.
Theme: love, trust, fear
Characters:
Sawyer Hudson – oldest brother – father died serving in the military – town doctor. He (and his brothers) have raised his son Casey. Sawyer married in medical school to high school sweetheart, she was bored and felt neglected and slept around.

Out of respect for women and women patients, he goes out of town when he needs sexual relief.
Honey Malone – frightened, sick (bronchitis), feverish, on the run… she runs off the road, through Sawyer’s fence, and partly in the lake. Her father is rich businessman, disappointed in not having a son, cold toward daughters, more interested in business than them… he changes his will so that Honey’s future husband would inherit his wealth upon his death. Honey is engaged to one of his father’s employees, and overhears that he’s more interested in her father’s money than him, she quietly moves out – but when she’s being followed, when someone breaks in to search her sister’s house (where she’s staying), and she is run off the road, but neither the police nor her father take her seriously, she decides to ‘get out of Dodge’… sells one car, rents another… her clothes are at her sisters, but the rest of what she took from her fiance’s is still in her car, and goes with her.
Summary:
And immediately, Sawyer is attracted to and wants to protect Honey. He doctors her (both her concussion and her bronchitis), she sleeps in his bed, he won’t let her leave, the brothers gain her trust… they decide her ex-fiance is the most likely culprit… Honey fits in with the family – insisting on taking her turn in chores, not letting especially Morgan to intimidate her… and after a few weeks, when she realizes she’s getting it too deep, and her car still isn’t running, she decides to borrow a car, go into town, and get on a bus… but they stop her… and when Sawyer reads her note, saying she’s too attracted to him to stay, he knows what to do…. And they make love, and come up with a plan to ‘flush’ out her tormentor… and then accidently, when Casey retrieved her music tapes (not country western) so that they could listen to ‘real music’, she finds a tape, where her ex-fiance is talking with 2 men, contracting with them to kill her father and to then to kill her, so that he would inherit all of the money…. What the thugs were looking for.
They spring the trap, and when her ex-fiance sends the thugs in the middle of the night, the brothers are ready… though Honey was supposed to stay in basement with Gabe and Casey, she can’t see the others risking for her, so she joins in the fray… and gets hit in the face, and Sawyer goes berserker, and all is well. And they finally are able to exchange words of love, and plans to marry.

He was the most hot-headed of them, more easily got into fights… and as an adult, he becomes sheriff – for the control of himself, for the control of others. He likes to do what’s necessary for the outcome he desires.
Misty Malone – Honey’s sister. She comes for the wedding… but her life is out of control – she’s pregnant (broken condom), her boyfriend doesn’t want the baby & she does, so she leaves him – making her homeless, and she is accused of stealing at the video store she works at, takes it to court, is found guilty and forced to repay & is on 6 months probation.

Theme: love, innocence, self image, growing up
Characters:
Gabe Kasper – the least ‘focused’ of the brothers. The baby – his father had an uphill battle getting mom to accept his courtship, and he shamelessly used the other 3 brothers to get on her good side – they’ve been married 24 years, and retired to Florida. The women love him, he loves all women – young and old… He loves the water… Story begins with him lounging on a dock over the lake, while 3 women giggle and swoon over him…. : ) He’s handy – and helps out wherever needed, but in a relaxed, unstructured way… He helped Morgan build his house, he mows lawns, he fixes the restaurant’s plumbing, he can tune up boats and cars.. etc. His income is close to his doctor brother’s.
Elizabeth ‘Lizzy’ Parks- at 12, she and her mother were run off the road by a truck, her mother trapped in the car while Lizzy thrown free… and she sat by the road side, not knowing what to do… and the news and the doctors made it out that the traumatized little girl let her mother die by doing nothing. Her father, though missed his wife, did his best by his daughter, but she never quite fit in with the others. She is red haired, freckled body… and thinks she’s ugly, and dresses in shapeless, formal clothing. For her master’s thesis she is studying what makes a hero… and comes across a news piece of Gabe, and how he rescued a mother and 2 children in the lake, with a boat without driver ‘circling’ them (boat’s driver drunk, and fell overboard)… She wants to figure out what makes some a hero and not others, and to help the nonheros.
Summary:
Gabe doesn’t understand Lizzy… but she is persistent. He refuses to let her interview him, but when she starts talking to everyone else, he makes a deal with her… he thinks she needs to loosen up, so if she goes swimming in the lake with him, he’ll answer one question…
And her shyness, her lack of confidence, her innocence her gorgeous body in a swim suit, her turning him down but then bit by bit enjoying his touch, and he becomes overwhelmed with desire for her… He agrees to answer a question for a kiss… he takes her to a drive-in movie and teaches her about sexual 1st, 2nd, and 3rd base… and for the month she’s on vacation and finishing her thesis, they are together – she becomes embroiled in his family and in his life. She finds a sense of confidence… Gabe helps her to forgive her 12 year old self… She tells him he loves her, but he doesn’t answer it back… and she accepts with the intention of enjoying their time … but as her time to leave comes near, Gabe realizes he wants her… and Morgan and Sawyer encourage him to tell her how he completely feels… and to formalize his business… and he tells her he loves her, and wants her to come back to him… ahhhh just the words she wanted to hear…

I was very impressed with Lori's writing because it gave off tiny vibes of Linda Howard but obviously, the erotica part of the book could never be like Howard's because she's the master. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it immensely. Gabe, Sawyer and Morgan all were amazing but my favourite has to be Gabe's story. Ehk!❤️❤️

This bundle brings all the brothers together in this sexy as hell box set. The Buckhorn men as so damn sexy, sweet (yes even Morgan) you'll fall for them in a minute.
As always Lori Foster has a great series, read this one a few times. Sawyer my favorite ( sexy as hell doctor) but Morgan although tough as nails ( or thinks he is) is lovable too. Love the closeness of family with all brothers and of course Sawyers son Casey! Who wouldn't love a house full of men (haha). Both Sawyer and Morgan love being single but know with their hometown reputations their not aloud to cut loose but when Honey breaks down Sawyers fence and Sawyers defenses he can't help but fall for this beautiful strong women. Then in comes Misty Honey's sister and when she comes to visit Morgan can't help but strong arm her into loving him. Sawyer is sweet, sexy as hell and romantic and smitten, Morgan is so hot for Misty, he can't get enough, I loved the part where Morgans Naked in the kitchen and Honey makes him dress...too funny.
For both Honey and Misty the men break down their defenses and builds them back up, even though all claim to love being bachelors they get a case of the love bug. Another great series to follow. Can't wait for Casey's story
Gabe/Jordan although liked Sawyer and Morgan in buckhorn beginnings more, this sequel is good. Very sexy men, courageous women. Fun and loving family. Great read but wasn't as good as the first book. Even though Jordan and Gabe sexy as all their brothers it wasn't as sexy a story, they both felt almost pushed through to get their happily ever after. Gabe and Jordan are both well sought out bachelors but once they catch their ideal women their as lost as their brothers. It just felt too quick and rushed I pared to Sawyer (my fav) and Morgan (so sexy)

This group of novella's encompass a family of gorgeous men that are so unique. Beside total hunks they have a strong sense of community, love, compassion for the weaker sex and animals. What is there not to like. Each brother is a bachelor. I could not say which brother is my favorite or which story was my favorite but the first story with Sawyer and Honey was adorable and then the next story with Morgan and Misty was just so sweet. The love they find goes beyond the normal love situation. Then youngest brother Gabe and his sweetheart, Red was a love story about a prim woman and a wild, beyond gorgeous man. He wrestled to maintain his freedom but as each story maintains once love has you there is nothing a man can do. Red is so sweet and goes from plain and prim to slowly allowing herself to be claimed by this sexy hunk. And finally the story of Jordan and Georgia was so funny and very sexy.
The stories of each brother and their fall from bachelorhood are heartwarming and erotic and humorous. As I read each short story it taught me how men perceive things especially after living solely among their own sex. They lack restrain when talking with their women and just let it all hang out. So instead of easing into the 'I want you' statement it comes out as 'I am so dam hard for you'. This whole book is so funny you cannot wait to get to the next page.
Loved this book and found all my pleasures within the confines of these pages, love, romance, sexy men, beautiful women, humor and erotic language/scenes. I recommend this book to all.

I love Lori Foster!!! I love her alpha male characters, and how when they fall head over heals for a woman nothing in the world matters to them but the girl. I have been having trouble with a lot of the female characters in romance novels today. They seem to always take backseat to the male characters. This bundle proves different. All of the females in the bundle are strong, witty, and have a personality that just grabs you. The stories and characters were awesome, therefore I gave it a solid 5 stars. Some stories are more catching than others but I am rating as a bundle.

Lori Foster writes good Romances
I have read quite a few books by this author. They are easy
reads but if you are not into explicit sex, give them a pass.

Lori Foster tells delightful stories of love. Yes, she does follow the "standard" romance plot lines, but does so in a very delightful and gentle way. And skillfully prepares the reader for the next book in the series without giving all away while provoking interest in seeing what the next book will bring.

What an enjoyable bundle!
This family had me from the first word. They are four GORGEOUS FUNNY MEN! Each book is about them and at the same time you keep up with the family. That is a complete winner for me. Thank you Lori Foster. Sawyer, Morgan, Jordan and Gage deserved every thing they got.

A definite must read. All of the brothers are awesome.
All of the brothers are awesome. Society needs more men like them. Just the right mix, love, passion, and security.

Erg leuk leesvoer, maar toch niet zo leuk als de boeken van Nora Roberts. De personages zijn wel leuk, maar worden vanaf de eerste blik overdonderd door een enorme seksuele aantrekkingskracht en de mannen lopen continu rond met een ... Eh.....vanwege de jongere lezers zal ik het maar niet zo specifiek benoemen als dat in dit boek gebeurt. Er wordt overigens wel meer heel specifiek beschreven. Je krijgt het er gewoon warm van. Maar het gaat ten koste van de binding met de personages en dat is waarom ik liever Nora Roberts lees.

This was a wonderful collection of stories about strong, honorable men and the wonderful women they fall in love with! I love how lori always adds animal characters to her stories, it so enhances them for me, and the collection of critters in these stories is wonderful as always. You can check out my reviews for each book here on goodreads!

I enjoyed reading it... those 4 brothers are almost perfect.
Handsome and ego-less, caring and really have good values.
I love the kind of brotherhood they share...
and of course the Buckhorn legacy too... I just love the way
they were raised and how they raised Casey... How can one not
fall in love with these brothers from Buckhorn.

I quit reading halfway through "Sawyer." I just couldn't take anymore discussion of "delicate," "tiny," and "feminine" the female lead was. (She's named Honey. Gag.) I was creeped out by Dr. Rapist Sawyer getting all hot and bothered looking an unconscious victim of a car accident. Kinda ruined the whole romance scenario for me.

I love how old fashioned this family is - they see someone in need and they reach right out to help without thinking about it. It makes me miss the old days. Each of the brothers are very sexy in their own way and I enjoyed reading about each one fall - and fall hard - for the love bug!

Loved all four of these books and it was nice to have them all in one package. Each story was good on it's own. Character development was good. Even though all four guys and their respective women are very different, they seemed to fit nicely together.

Lori Foster has an easy writing style that I enjoy. All in all an entertaining read that keeps you into the book. Although it didn't keep me up at night reading. It was a steady flow of good story telling.
