The Bradshaw Brothers #4
Unleashed
Not yet published
Expected 28 Aug 26Trevor Bradshaw is the most annoying man I’ve ever met.
He’s arrogant, demanding, and unyielding. Has serious control issues, no sense of humor, and zero patience.
He also accidentally rocked my world in my best friend’s bathroom.
During her wedding reception.
It’s a mistake I won’t be making again. I have more important things to focus on than what he hides beneath a bespoke suit and a frown.
Things like caring for my sister. I’m all she has, and I won’t let anything, or anyone, distract me from giving her the best childhood I can.
One that’s as different from mine as I can make it.
But Trevor doesn’t seem to like knowing I’m on my own. It bothers him in a way I don’t expect.
No one has ever cared about me or my struggles, so when he starts doing things that are a little… questionable, I don’t mind it as much as I should.
Apparently stalking is my love language.
But it’s the way he treats my sister that makes it impossible to stand my ground. The two of them are thick as thieves from day one. BFFs, complete with matching bracelets and inside jokes.
Now he’s sleeping on my couch and cooking in my kitchen. Mowing my grass and helping with laundry. Invading my home, my life…
And my bed.
Which might not be such a bad thing since someone else is lurking in the shadows.
Someone who will do anything to get what they want.

I read this in one sitting! I couldn’t put it down! This is my favorite of the Bradshaw Brother’s series!
Thank you Janice Whiteaker and Hambright PR for the Advanced Listening and Advanced Reading copies of Unleashed! The immersive read was fantastic and I was so surprised and thrilled to hear SAMANTHA BRENTMOOR and CONNOR CRAIS as the narrators! Truly chef’s kiss!
Having read all of this series I’ve gotten snippets of Trevor and his refusal to be seen as anything but dedicated to his job. He doesn’t care if you don’t like him, he prefers it that way. And then in walked Maren. She is a take no sh** black cat who has become an integral part of the company and will not put up with his attitude and will give it right back ten fold. The tension that has built through this series between these two was guaranteed to be explosive and if delivered!
Loved their story and getting to still see what the rest of the family is up to. The threat to the company and the family is still there and I can’t wait for more Bradshaw Brothers! 🔥

Just when I think I’ve found my favorite book in the series, a new one comes out and everything goes out the window! 🤯
❤️
Trevor Bradshaw… I am SO in love with you! 😍🔥 To say I devoured Trevor and Maren’s story would be a HUGE understatement. I could not get enough of these two!
It all started in a bathroom after a wedding, and let’s just say… if sleeping with your boss is taboo, I want every part of it! 🔥👀
Maren is such an incredible woman. She has overcome so much, especially at such a young age, after being left to raise her infant sister who suffers from the lifelong effects of their drug-addicted mother’s abandonment. Her strength and resilience made me love her even more. ❤️
Unleashed is book 4 in the Bradshaw Brothers series, and trust me—you do NOT want to sleep on this one! 🥵📖
📚 Release Date: August 28
Thank you so much to Janice Whittaker and Hambright PR for the ALC/ARC! 💕📚

🎧 ALC REVIEW 🎧
Thank you to Janice Whiteaker and Hambright PR for this ALC.
Another instalment in the Bradshaw Brothers series—and this time, Trevor takes centre stage.
Trevor is a work-obsessed, custom-suit-wearing businessman who has no time—or desire—for a relationship. Maren, meanwhile, has devoted her life to caring for her sick sister while trying to protect them both from their manipulative mother.
After one incredibly sexy encounter at a wedding, Trevor cannot get Maren out of his head—and suddenly, the man who never had time for a woman is determined to make time for her.
I absolutely adored this book. Trevor may have a rather intimidating exterior, but underneath it, he is protective, thoughtful, sweet and incredibly caring. I loved seeing his softer side emerge and watching the way he supported Maren after she had spent so long carrying everything alone.
Tucker, I’m sorry—but Trevor has officially become my favourite Bradshaw brother. Apparently, a protective man in an expensive suit is all it takes to win me over.
An easy 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Apparently stalking is a love language… and Trevor Bradshaw has me unwell
4.5 ⭐ | 2.75 🌶️
Janice, babes… THAT ENDING SHOULD BE FUCKING ILLEGAL. You’ll be hearing from my lawyers. And my therapist. Possibly both at the same time.
Because Unleashed didn’t just pull me in: it consumed me. Having both the ARC and ALC made the experience even better because whenever I had to physically put the book down, I could immediately shove the audiobook into my ears and continue spiraling over Trevor and Maren like a perfectly reasonable adult. Narrator: She was not a perfectly reasonable adult.
Maren is the kind of heroine who gets under your skin almost immediately. She’s tough, stubborn, fiercely independent, and carrying the kind of strength that wasn’t born from choice; it was built through survival. Her childhood taught her how to fight for the bare minimum. Food. Clothes. Safety. A chance at something resembling normal. Then, five years before this story begins, one phone call changes everything. Maren discovers she has a baby sister. And from that moment on, that little girl becomes her entire world.
Everything Maren does is rooted in one promise: her sister will have the childhood she never did. She works, sacrifices, protects, plans, worries, pushes herself beyond exhaustion and never once considers that maybe she deserves someone looking after her, too.
Which is exactly where Trevor Bradshaw becomes a massive, grumpy, controlling pain in her ass. And, unfortunately for Maren, an extremely sexy one. Trevor is one of her bosses, a man who seems permanently two seconds away from arguing with someone, taking control of something, or terrifying an innocent spreadsheet into submission. He lives and breathes work. Delegating appears to physically offend him. Patience? Never heard of her. Sense of humor? Missing, presumed dead.
So naturally, these two accidentally hook up. At a wedding. In a bathroom. As one does. And from there, the tension between them is delicious.
What I loved most, though, is that Unleashed doesn’t rely on sexual chemistry alone. Yes, Trevor and Maren have heat. Yes, their adversarial energy makes every interaction crackle. Yes, watching two grumpy, stubborn people attempt to pretend they absolutely do not want each other is deeply entertaining.
But underneath all that friction is something surprisingly tender. Their relationship grows in a way that feels raw, intimate, complicated, and deeply human.
Trevor’s need to step in isn’t always graceful and sometimes it ventures delightfully into sir, that is absolutely questionable behavior territory, but you gradually understand where it comes from. You understand the intention underneath the control. The fear underneath the demands. The man underneath that bespoke suit and permanent frown.
And Maren? Accepting help might genuinely be more terrifying to her than facing everything alone. Because when you’ve spent your entire life surviving by yourself, depending on someone else doesn’t feel comforting. It feels dangerous. It feels like weakness. It feels like giving somebody the power to disappoint you.
That emotional push and pull between them gave this story so much depth. But the part that completely wrecked me was Trevor with Maren’s sister. I AM WEAK. Watching this intimidating, perpetually irritated man become completely wrapped around one tiny finger? The matching bracelets? The inside jokes? Their immediate little friendship? Goodbye. I’m deceased.
There is something unbearably sexy about a man who doesn’t just want the woman; he sees the life she has built, understands the responsibilities she carries, and starts making space for all of it. He isn’t simply trying to get into Maren’s bed. He’s on her couch. In her kitchen. Helping with laundry. Mowing the grass.
Quietly inserting himself into the everyday pieces of her life until suddenly this fiercely independent woman isn’t carrying absolutely everything alone anymore. And THAT is the good shit.
Unleashed balances humor, heat, caretaking, vulnerability, family, duty, danger, and emotional baggage so well. Beneath the workplace tension, accidental hookup, adversaries-to-lovers chaos, and light stalking antics is a story about what happens when someone who has never been cared for meets a man who apparently decides caring for her is now his full-time fucking occupation.
And Maren does not know what to do with that. Honestly? Neither did I. I laughed. I swooned. I wanted to shake them both. I melted over Trevor’s relationship with Maren’s sister. I hurt for Maren. I understood why she guarded her independence so viciously. And somewhere along the way, Trevor Bradshaw bulldozed his grouchy ass straight into my heart.
Then Janice Whiteaker had the audacity to give me THAT ENDING. Ma’am. Respectfully. JAIL.
If you love accidental hookups, adversaries-to-lovers, workplace romance, small-town vibes, grumpy-meets-even-grumpier energy, an aggressively competent hero whose love language might legally qualify as surveillance, a fiercely protective heroine, found family, caretaking, emotional vulnerability, and a romance with genuine weight beneath the spice… You’re going to want this one.
Thank you so much to Hambright PR for sending me both the ARC and ALC in exchange for an honest review, and huge congratulations to Janice Whiteaker on the upcoming release of Unleashed on August 28th. 🖤🔥
Now, if anyone needs me, I’ll be forwarding my therapy invoice directly to Janice.

Review of advance copy received from Author
Trevor Bradshaw just stole Tucker’s crown… and I’m not even mad about it!
When the ARC/ALC sign-up for Book 4 landed, how quickly did I hit apply? Yep… faster than a superhero. 😂
And Unleashed absolutely delivered.
Trevor has always been the arrogant, demanding, work-obsessed Bradshaw with the bespoke suits and permanent frown, but watching Maren slowly bring out the softer, protective side of him had me completely invested.
Maren was everything I wanted in a heroine. She’s spent so long putting everyone else first, especially her sister Zara, and seeing Trevor step in and show her that she doesn’t have to carry everything alone was beautiful.
And Zara? 🥹❤️
Another Bradshaw book, another adorable little girl stealing my heart. The relationship between Trevor and Zara was one of my favourite parts. Watching this intimidating man become completely wrapped around her little finger was perfection.
Then there’s the audiobook…
Samantha Brentmoor and Connor Crais were phenomenal.
I chose to immersive read this one and was completely transported from the first chapter to the last. Samantha could probably read me a cereal packet and I’d call it an immersive experience, while Connor absolutely nailed Trevor’s character and had me swooning.
Janice Whiteaker has once again delivered the perfect combination of chemistry, humour, spice, emotion and suspense. And yes… that bathroom scene. 🥵😂
Did we get all the answers to the bigger storyline?
Nope.
Did I finish with approximately 47 new questions?
Obviously. 😂
But I trust Janice completely. I know those threads are going somewhere, and I am more than happy to follow along.
This series really does need to be read from the beginning. The build-up, the brothers, the family dynamics and all those little connections make each book even better.
Unleashed gave me Trevor and Maren’s HEA, another character to add to my ever-growing list of fictional obsessions, and an audio experience I absolutely adored.
Another Bradshaw brother has fallen… and apparently so have I. ❤️🎧📖

Review of advance copy received from Author
I have been absolutely craving Trevor and Maren's story and it didn't at all disappoint, especially with Samantha Brentmore and Connor Crais at the helm! These two are always so great at weaving chemistry into their voices and showing just the right amount of emotion for what they're narrating. Honestly, I would listen to Samantha read her grocery list. Her voice just scratches that brain itch for me 🤣
From the very beginning these two had me laughing so hard. You really have to read this series from the beginning to get the true build up between these two which makes the inevitable shift at the beginning of this book so, so satisfying. And hilarious. Because, Janice... I know you did not just start a chapter with the words "take your ---- out". But I appreciate that you did 🤣
I really loved getting to know more about Maren. Just like Trevor, I never would have guessed that she had so much going on, but it certainly explains so much about her. All of the reveals about her character made me adore her all the more. And then there's Trevor, slowly softening as the story progresses in the best way. Him going from gruff, distant a$$hole to goey protector was 🤌 Cracked me up how full throttle he went. I will say the man knows himself pretty well, because he nailed exactly what would happen from day one.
Did this one answer any of the burning questions of the overall story for this series? No. Actually, it gave us even more but I'm not at all complaining. I want to know even more, now, because how are there so many connecting strings? How have things stayed hidden this long? And what's the purpose? I trust Janice to answer all my questions, and I'm really looking forward to the next book as I'm certain that's where it will happen.
I can't recommend this series enough, but you have to start from the beginning. Trust me. You need the full story, the build up, and to take the time to get to know all of these brothers. You'll love them all so I promise that it's worth it 😉

Review of advance copy received from Author
I received both the ebook and audiobook ARC of Unleashed, and apparently sleep was no longer important because there was absolutely NO WAY I was waiting to listen to this one. 😂 I was so excited when it showed up earlier than expected! I have been patiently (okay, maybe not so patiently) waiting for Trevor and Maren’s story, and it was everything I hoped it would be.
I already knew I wanted these two together, but finally getting Maren’s full story made me love her so much more. Learning about her past, everything she has carried, and how she stepped up to raise her sister added so much depth to a character I was already invested in. And Trevor… I knew there was a reason I’d been waiting for this man. ❤️
One of my favorite things about this series is how each book gives us another piece of the Bradshaw family while still making each couple’s story feel completely their own. Four books in, and somehow Janice Whiteaker just keeps making me love this family more. Seriously, these books just keep getting better and better.
And the AUDIO!! Connor Crais and Samantha Brentmoor knocked it out of the park, as usual. They are both phenomenal narrators on their own, but put them together and it is pure audiobook magic. The emotion, chemistry, banter—everything just hits differently when these two are behind the microphones. I could not stop listening… hence the no sleep situation. Worth it. 😂
Thank you so much, Janice Whiteaker, for continuing to allow me to ARC read this series. I have loved being along for the Bradshaw Brothers ride, and Unleashed was absolutely worth the wait.
Now, Janice… please don’t make us wait too long for Walker’s story. And possibly… Lindsey??? 👀 Because I am already VERY invested in whatever is happening there.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An easy five stars from me!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review: Unleashed by Janice Whiteaker
Title: Unleashed
Author: Janice Whiteaker
Series: Bradshaw Brothers, Book 4
Narrators: Samantha Brentmoor & Connor Crais
Spice Rating: 🌶️🌶️
I think it’s official: Unleashed is my favorite book in the Bradshaw Brothers series.
I’ve been incredibly lucky to receive every single ALC in this series, and I’ve completely fallen in love with these characters and this world. Janice Whiteaker continues to deliver stories that are emotional, entertaining, and impossible to put down.
Tucker has always been that grumpy, controlling, all-business brother, so watching him completely unravel over Maren was absolutely everything. And when I say unravel, I mean in the most unhinged and hilarious way possible. I never expected a little stalking to make me laugh as much as it did, but somehow it worked perfectly for these two.
What made this book so special for me was that Maren didn’t run from Tucker’s chaos. She was completely here for it, and their dynamic was so much fun to experience. Their chemistry felt natural, their banter was fantastic, and seeing them slowly let their walls come down made this story impossible not to love.
One of my favorite surprises was Zara, Maren’s younger sister. Since Maren is so private and has spent most of her life taking care of herself and protecting those she loves, Zara added an entirely new layer to the story. Honestly, she completely stole the show for me. I adored her from the moment she appeared.
This book gave me two stubborn, grumpy characters who somehow managed to bring out the absolute best in each other while simultaneously losing their minds together, and I loved every second of it.
If you’ve been following the Bradshaw Brothers series, you need to pick this one up. It’s funny, emotional, a little chaotic, and easily my favorite installment so far.

Read
August 16, 2026I cant claim to understand what magic Janice slips in her novels but every single book is not only amazing but makes me love this series more and more. Each book makes that MMC my favorite. Until I read the next one. Trevor is no exception. He usurped my love for Tuck and I expect the same to happen with Walker.
Is it wrong to love and want to marry five brothers?!? No? Ok, good because honestly, why choose? But seriously. Each new book gives me a new favorite Bradshaw boy and Trevor is no exception. He’s so controlled and cold but it’s not for the reason you expect. Once you start peeling back his layers, he’s absolutely so kind, generous, protective, caring and thoughtful. An absolute gem. And while Maren has her own sad backstory, she definitely doesn’t want anyone’s sympathy and she works incredibly hard for herself and her sister. This woman’s determination and over all bad assness fills me with respect and admiration. And when you add in the cutest, smartest, happiest five year old ever? You cannot lose. This book had me laughing and crying and everything in between. You absolutely need to read this book, well series because if you haven’t yet, what are you even actually doing with your life?
Be advised these are not standalone’s and you definitely to read them all in order to understand everything that’s happening. The overarching mystery that’s piling up is going to be explosive, I can feel it. And I can WAIT until it all plays out! I will be DEVASTATED when this series comes to a close as it’s one of my favorites ever, but I also am anticipating the last book so much I can hardly breathe!
Is it wrong to love and want to marry five brothers?!? No? Ok, good because honestly, why choose? But seriously. Each new book gives me a new favorite Bradshaw boy and Trevor is no exception. He’s so controlled and cold but it’s not for the reason you expect. Once you start peeling back his layers, he’s absolutely so kind, generous, protective, caring and thoughtful. An absolute gem. And while Maren has her own sad backstory, she definitely doesn’t want anyone’s sympathy and she works incredibly hard for herself and her sister. This woman’s determination and over all bad assness fills me with respect and admiration. And when you add in the cutest, smartest, happiest five year old ever? You cannot lose. This book had me laughing and crying and everything in between. You absolutely need to read this book, well series because if you haven’t yet, what are you even actually doing with your life?
Be advised these are not standalone’s and you definitely to read them all in order to understand everything that’s happening. The overarching mystery that’s piling up is going to be explosive, I can feel it. And I can WAIT until it all plays out! I will be DEVASTATED when this series comes to a close as it’s one of my favorites ever, but I also am anticipating the last book so much I can hardly breathe!

Book #4 The Bradshaw Brother's series
YES! I have been waiting for Trevor's story, and I was not disappointed one bit!
Trevor is grumpy and devoted to his family and company. Thinking he doesn't have time for anything but work. Basically, living at the office until his office banter buddy Maren gives him a shot at hook up... He quickly becomes obsessed with her and keeping her safe. Wanting to learn every little thing about her and protecting her from the world.
Maren is a single guardian and a grumpy FMC but with a softening heart for one grumpy boss Trevor. Maren is feeling all the heavy weight of caring for her sister along with balancing work and a busy schedule. When Trevor worms his way into their lives and eventually Maren's heart, she realizes she isn't as alone as she has been her entire life.
I love Trevor! He might be grumpy, but he cares so deeply for his family and that now included Maren & Zara. Can I please be adopted into the Bradshaw family? Seriously they are such an amazing family. The Bradshaw brothers are still trying to figure out who is after the company and what is really going on. The romance mixed with the heartwarming vibes and then add in the suspense aspect of this series has me hooked. I can't wait for Walker's book!

I enjoyed being back in this world I've only read Tucker's story prior to this but just knew that Maren and Trevor would come together and it would be amazing in their own book and this didn't disappoint. I loved how dedicated Maren was to her sister and making sure she had everything that she never got as a child you can see how dealing with her mother growing up and being taken advantage of by her led to her being a spitfire. Then there is gruff, works all the time Trevor who has no time for love... until he does and it's everything he needs.
I had the opportunity to listen to this ALC copy from Hambright PR and I thank them and the author for this early copy! The Narrators Samantha Brentmore and Connor Crais were amazing and really brought out the emotions in each character.
This story still leaves us with questions related to some things that happened in this book plus the previous books and I'm hoping that we'll get the answers in the next book!
I'm looking forward to the next book in the series and plan to go back and read the first 2 books in the series as well so I can get the beginning of the first few brother's relationships.

Unleashed is unbelievably good from beginning to end! Five stars is not enough for this book! Trevor and Maren’s love story is better than I could have imagined! Following their adversarial relationship from the start of the series has been fun. I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this ARC.
Trevor is deliciously grumpy and intense. He fell hard for Maren, and he was all in to support and protect her. He somehow made stalking look like it was perfectly normal. I would gladly let him stalk me!
Maren has an honest, sometimes brash personality that has made me champion her from the moment she first appeared. I love her confidence! Maren’s brand of snark is sassy and perfect! She’s a devoted big sister, and you can't help but want her to succeed.
Trevor and Maren are hot and seggsy together. They fought their attraction through animosity until it was boiling over. The way their relationship easily shifted into deep feelings has made them my favorite couple of the series so far. It was so good to see them open up to each other.
Nothing about this book is predictable. It’s fresh but followed along the ongoing suspense plot. There’s so much that I enjoyed, but the flow of feelings throughout the plot made me completely love this story. The Bradshaw family loves easily and steps up for each other without question. This sense of found family is just one of the big draws for this series.
Janice Whiteaker knows how to throw in twists that have your mouth hitting the floor. The chills are so good! The humor and witty banter are always consistent and unforgettable. One more story to go! I don’t want it to end!

Trevor Bradshaw is arrogant, controlling, demanding, and completely impossible… which is exactly why I couldn’t get enough of him. 😏🔥
Maren has enough on her plate already, especially when it comes to taking care of her little sister, so the last thing she needs is Trevor barging into her life after one unforgettable encounter at her best friend’s wedding. But Trevor doesn’t exactly understand the concept of staying away.
What starts as an annoying attraction quickly turns into something so much deeper. I absolutely loved watching Trevor go from grumpy, control-freak businessman to the man mowing Maren’s lawn, doing her laundry, cooking in her kitchen, and somehow becoming her sister’s favorite person.
And Maren? I adored her. She’s strong, protective, independent, and fiercely devoted to her sister, but watching her slowly realize she doesn’t have to carry everything alone completely melted me.
The chemistry between these two was 🔥🔥🔥, the banter had me smiling, and the protective/stalker-ish Trevor energy? Yeah… apparently that’s my love language too. 😂
Add in the suspense, the danger lurking in the shadows, the found-family feels, and a romance that sneaks up on both of them, and this book had me completely hooked.
Five stars without hesitation!
Give me a grumpy, possessive man who falls hard and a strong FMC who refuses to be easily won, and I’m SOLD.

I have yet to read anything by Janice I did not like. This was no different. If you have not gotten to read the previous books this might throw you. Trevor and maren are just what the fans wanted. From the start of this series these two never shut up. They just kept showing up. Fighting of course. Its their love language. In true Janice fashion she adds a kid to the mix and if you loved birdie you are going to love zara. She's five and full of personality. The exact opposite of her sister.
The mystery continues in this book. So it just keeps rolling out. Getting closer to solving the mystery but not! It's just another piece of the book puzzle you never knew you needed. Trevor is just who you think he was going to be. I thought this book would focus on his insecurities like his brothers but this book was definitely more maren focused with lots of her baggage but Trevor fugues her out!
The couple has a hea but we are still rocking the mystery van
I was also gifted a copy of the audiobook they narrators did an amazing job with Trevor and maron. Even zara. They truly were a perfect fit for the book. They read the book. Meaning they read it without over acting the book. The female narrator was spot on for Maren's sarcasm. If you know this character you know her level of snark and attitude. She truly had this character down. And Trevor's narrator was spot on for his rich masculine charm his voice was incredibly perfect for his rich tones.
I m so happy that this author can also enrich her readers with audiobooks. Her narrator picks are spot on!

No one would ever say Trevor Bradshaw is a happy, easy going guy. Between the "Dead Dans", Ray's betrayal, and the threats against his company - he devotes all his efforts and attention to figuring out who’s behind the dangers.
Seeing Maren around McKinley Security building seems to give him a small minute of fun, even if he's not sure why.
All series long, these two have been shooting acid laced barbs and venomous sass at each other. As much responsibility Trevor has, Maren has a different but equal level in her life, and she has no time for distractions. Easiest to be a prickly, dismissive, direct woman so no one upsets her balance.
Unfortunately (not really), she doesn't count on this energizing Trevor 's attraction and longing for her time. The steamy chemistry and sizzling attraction was fun to see develop and set them on their HEA journey.
Along the way, the dangers surrounding their company increases, with strange events that don't seem to be related to anything! The pages turned themselves and I really enjoyed the mystery aspects of this storyline.
Please read in order for the best experience. These characters live rent-free in my head and heart, and I recommend this author and this series.
I thank the author for my ARC, and happily leave my thoughts.

Trevor & Maren Finally! 😂
FINALLY!! Ma’am, Trevor and Maren… YES PLEASE! 🙌 But let’s be honest—we ALL knew this was where these two were headed. The tension between them has been building for THREE books, and now we finally got their story! And that cliffhanger?! OMG. WHAT IS GOING ON?! 😳
If you’ve read the previous books, you already knew where Trevor and Maren were going to end up. These two have had that love-hate relationship going on forever—although honestly, it was WAY more hate than love for most of it 😂—but the tension was EVERYTHING, and it was absolutely worth the wait.
And Maren?! GIRL. Finding out everything she had been going through—and things I had absolutely NO idea about during the first three books—had me shook. A whole sister I didn’t even know about?! 👀 Like ma’am, where have you been hiding all this?!
And Trevor… THAT MAN IS UNHINGED. 😂 Once he commits, he Commits. He is completely and unapologetically obsessed, and honestly? I am here for it.
Now… WALKER’S STORY?! Giiiirl, YES! 🙌 I need it. I need it NOW. After that ending, I am not prepared to wait around wondering what the hell is going on!
I am SO glad we finally got Trevor and Maren’s story, but ma’am… you really couldn’t just give us peace, could you?! 😂 Now I’m sitting here needing Walker’s story and answers to that cliffhanger!
Bring on Walker. I’m ready. 🔥

** Audio Review **
Obsessed! Unleashed by Janice Whiteaker was a suspenseful, tension-filled small-town romance that had me laughing, swooning, and a little bit on edge from start to finish. I couldn’t get enough of Maren and Trevor’s accidental hookup to forever chemistry that was hot right from the start. I’m loving all of these Bradshaw brothers even more.
Samantha Brentmoor and Connor Crais perform this audiobook in duet-style narration. This narrator pairing never lets me down, and they created the best steamy tension and hilarious banter between Maren and Trevor. Samantha’s silky, smooth voice added the perfect amount of sass and confidence to Maren’s black cat persona. Connor’s warm, buttery timbre embodied all of Trevor’s grumpy, man-obsessed goodness that had me falling so damn hard for this fella.
Overall, I LOVED this book. If you are a fan of a small town romance with a determined, hardworking assistant, a grumpy, slightly obsessed bossman, accidental bathroom hookup, an adorable sunshiny sister, witty banter, steamy tension, brotherly love, too many margaritas, agreements with benefits, dangerous encounters, forced proximity, intimate conversations, love declarations, grand gestures, risky situations, and a HEA that will steal your heart, then you will love Maren and Trevor’s story. I always look forward to more from Janice Whiteaker.

As much as I love this family of men, I absolutely love the girl group more!
We have been waiting for Maren and Trevor since the beginning! I was so excited to have this book in my hands, I mean ears! The sparks and banter between these two have been popping off since they met but I knew there was vulnerability running under those protective shields! Unleashed was everything I hoped it would be and more. Watching Trevor fall for little Zara just melted my heart, we knew he was more than the neurotic jerk he shows most people! This has been my favorite of the series but I have a feeling Walker is gonna hear that and say “hold my beer”.
The way that the girl group shows up for each other and their men are some of my favorite scenes in the entire series. They are just so welcoming and supportive, seriously what I wish all of my girlfriend relationships could be. I also have to say I loved getting more snippets of Ruth caretaking Trevor. It made me giggle every time.
The audio. Guys, the audio was so good! Samantha Brentmoor as sharp tongued Maren was perfection but combine that with her child voice for Zara, chef’s kiss. Connor Crais was also fantastic as Trevor. Both of these voice actors were exactly as I had the characters sounding in my head throughout the whole series.
Rounded from 4.75

I LOVE this series!! This family crawled into my heart from the moment I met Titus & Mariah in book 1. Major, major swoon in every story! 😁
This is Trevor & Maren's story. They've been sniping at each other since they met & we've gotten to watch their version of foreplay through the series. Heh. And finally getting the inside scoop is glorious! I love these two together. Trevor is unleashed & also a bit UNHINGED in the best possible way. Omh, this man. He doesn't realize why he's so protective of Maren (& Zara) but he's all in. And Maren is a snarky, slightly violent dream. ❤️ I love her so much!
Her sister, Zara, is kinda her opposite - a social butterfly, chatty... but with a huge, generous heart, which Maren has worked so hard to protect. As soon as Trevor meets her, he's all in to do the same. But he wants to make Maren see that she's worth protecting, too.
These two get steamy-steamy. 🔥🌶🔥🌶🔥🌶 And they're also HILARIOUS! I LOLd sooo many times. Loved it!
We get some pretty epic suspense scenes, too. I highly recommend reading this series in order bc there's an overarching storyline that's really awesome & engaging. A mystery! 😁

I have been waiting and waiting for Maren and Trevor since book 1. Their banter broke through all the other brothers’ books and I am here for it!!! Their story didn’t disappoint. The banter was superb, Trevor fought so hard and failed spectacularly at staying away from Maren. Maren has a huge history that I had no idea about. She is so strong and such an amazing woman! I really really enjoyed their story. And Zara?? She is amazing! She seemed a bit mature for a 5yo but I’m not mad about it. Some kids grow up fast especially when they have to. I adored her little sunshine fueled personality. I especially love how natural Trevor was with her.
I received an earc and audiobook from Janice Whiteaker and HambrightPR! It was narrated by Samantha Brentmoor and Connor Crais. These two narrators are some of my favorite narrators ever. I love Samantha so much. She is always so great with the sassy, strong heroines that have an emotional side. And Connor? Well he is just soooo good! Like gives me goosebumps level good. Excellent narrative experience! I can’t wait to get to Walker’s story next!

Unleashed will have you laughing hysterically and rolling your eyes so far back in your head! The shenanigans of Trevor and Maren, short of killing each other, are basically foreplay that eventually ends in explosive chemistry. You could all see this coming from the previous books, but when it finally happens, it's a struggle between laughing and sighing.
Seeing Trevor show a softer side with Zara, while remaining completely unaware of how obsessed he is with Maren through all his scheming, is absolutely sexy. Zara is a sweetheart who steals the scene, perfectly balancing out the more troubled times.
Maren and Trevor just fit in their weird, not so sweet ways. I love how strong Maren is, her dedication to Zara, and her sarcasm is pure gold especially when it finally hits Trevor and only fires their chemistry even more.
Danger definitely has it out for this troupe, and no stone is left unturned with the bond, love, support, and loyalty of the Bradshaws. You just have to love them, and I can't wait to see how it all turns out with Walker.

I do not know what I am going to do when this series ends! These Bradshaw brothers are everything. Trevor has always been a grumpy mystery in the background in this series so I was really looking forward to this one.
I was able to listen to this one.I highly recommend listening to Unleashed if you have the opportunity the voice actors are the very best.
The tension and banter between Trevor and Maren has been insane during this series. The obsession Trevor has for Maren is HOT! Is it a raging red flag yes! Hot mom the less. The spice and chemistry is perfection.
Maren's relationship with Zara was so heartwarming. Seeing that softer side of her was so sweet.
Zara that little girl wormed her way into my heart from the start!
Zara and Trevor make sure you are ready to have your heart melt!
We are still getting answers to the ongoing storyline. It has kept me intrigued the whole way through.
Walker is the last man standing and he is up next!

It’s no secret that I love the Bradshaw Brothers. They’re protective badasses with the softest cores and the women in these books are every bit as fierce.
I’ve been dying for Trevor and Maren’s story! Their tension, barbed banter and undeniable chemistry have been building for ages, and Unleashed did not disappoint!!
I love that these stories have an extra layer of emotional substance and grit. Each book feels like its own story while giving us more of the ever-growing Bradshaw family and their dynamics.
And I am desperate for a resolution to that ongoing mystery!
Summary: Trevor is married to his job and has no interest in love. Maren has far too many responsibilities to think about romance and with her big black cat energy, she hates Trevor. But their chemistry? Explosive!
The narrators were fantastic too!
Every book in this series has been a great read/listen, and I cannot wait for the next one!
Please let us get Walker soon!

Summary: Trevor is married to his job and has no interest in love. Maren has far too many responsibilities to think about romance and with her big black cat energy, she hates Trevor. But their chemistry? Explosive!
The narrators were fantastic too!
Every book in this series has been a great read/listen, and I cannot wait for the next one!
Please let us get Walker soon!
Review of advance copy
I have waited the entire series for Trevor and Maren’s book and it definitely did not disappoint. I loved these two in every interaction that they have had as side characters in the first three books, but their personalities truly come to life in Unleashed, the fourth book in the Bradford Brothers series. I would love to say this is my favorite pairing so far, but after reading this book and being reminded by how amazing this whole found family is, as it is an interconnected storyline, I just cannot pick a favorite couple. Each story has imprinted a special place in my mind and my heart and I have no doubt Walker’s book will do the same.
The Duet audiobook version of Unleashed is also something I will 100% recommend. Samantha Brentmoor and Connor Crais could not have been more perfectly cast for this book. If you hadn’t fallen in love with Zara from reading the book, Samantha Brentmoor will make it happen in the audio. (She does the most amazing children’s voices.)

Thank you, Hambright PR and Janice Whitaker, for the ALC! ❤️
First of all… Connor Crais and Samantha Brentmoor?!!!! 🔥 They were the PERFECT duo to bring Trevor and Maren to life! They both did a phenomenal job, and I absolutely loved listening to their performances!
I have completely fallen in love with the Bradshaw brothers, and I’m so sad their stories are over! 😭😭😭 Janice Whitaker has quickly become an auto-read author for me. Her books are always the perfect blend of romance and suspense, and Unleashed was no different!
I KNEW when Maren and Trevor finally got together it was going to be explosive! The tension has been building for the last three books, and it finally ignited in Unleashed. 🔥
I especially loved watching Trevor fall so hard for Maren and her little sister, Zara. ❤️ This tough guy turned into such a teddy bear, and I was absolutely here for it!
The Bradshaw brothers will definitely be characters I’m not ready to say goodbye to! 🥹❤️

Maren & Trevor are just the perfect couple…but I’m sure Maren will puke at that assessment. Getting to know how Maren grew up and how that made her the woman she became is sad that follows a feeling of pride. She grew up in the worst circumstances but managed to become a better version of the woman who gave birth to her. And that was proven when Maren took custody of her newborn sister and took care of her and made sure she had whatever she needed. Then comes Trevor. The relationship between Trevor & Maren has been tumultuous to say the least. Maren wasn’t scared of giving Yrevor a piece of her mind and Trevor appreciated that Maren gave as good as she got and she wasn’t afraid of making her point. I cannot wait for the conclusion of this series to find out about who is trying to sabotage their company or if it has anything to do with Walker trying to find out what happened to his mom.

ALC.
I love this series & this family so much 🥺
I’ve been lucky enough to get an ALC for all of them so far.. this one was probably my least favourite of the series so far.. but I still love it!
Trevor & Marens story was different to the others.
I liked their banter & hate to each other (that you know they don’t really feel).
I love Maren & Zara together. How easy she makes her life look going through what she has.. and not wanting anyone to know. But when Trevor knows.. he knows!!
My only issue with this book was his sleeping in his car outside her house felt a bit extreme 💀 but the brothers do own a security company so they are extra cautious I suppose 😂 the bracelet he wore off Zara and said “I have friends.. Zara’s my friend” 🥺🥺🥺🥺 the mam is still my favourite character in these whole books, the woman’s absolute bat shit crazy & is just desperate for grandkids I love it 😂😂😂

Thank you so much to Hambright PR and Janice Whiteaker for the ALC, here are my thoughts:
TREVOR AND MAREN FOREVER.
Every single book I’m like ok this is my favorite brother…but honestly they just all are.
The way Trevor cared so deeply for Maren and her sister 🥹😭😭😭😭 it was the sweetest thing ever.
The disability rep in this book was perfection and Trevor making sure to accommodate her even buying something soooo big for her sister to be able to do (no spoilers)!!
Maren!!! I just want to hug her so badly. As her character was somewhat relatable. 🫂🫂🫂 and I teared up quite a bit.
I want a mom or MIL like Deidre so so badly!!!
These books have the best found family ever
The group chats are life and the family dinners!
The ending!!! SWOON! 💕💕💕

Thank you to Hambright and Janice Whiteaker for the opportunity to read and listen to Unleashed!
Unleashed is the 4th book in the Bradshaw Brothers series and it did not disappoint! The audio was absolutely incredible, I was swooning over Trevor’s love for Maren 😍
Maren is raising her 5 year old sister, Zara, to the best of her abilities since their mother isn’t around. Never one to accept help or sympathy, Maren works her ass off to provide for Zara and herself. When Trevor sees how much she’s truly on her own, he decides that just won’t do. He becomes obsessed with taking care of them, providing for them, watching them, and loving them.
What started as an accidental hookup with her boss at her best friend’s wedding has turned into so much more.

Review of advance copy
Trevor is obsessed with work and he is also obsessed with Maren. This book is my favorite of the series so far. It mixes characters from previous books and crosses with the Alaskan Rouge Team series, which I also highly recommend. The female characters are down to earth real people with real problems that society brushes under the rug (stalking, abuse, neglect, etc.). Maren is a bad bitch and proud of it and that is what draws Trevor to her. I am looking forward to book 5 to get answers to questions from the previous 4.
