[Amie Morgado- We Stole Your Book Boyfriend · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read these when the author re-did them last year. I enjoyed them with their cliffys and build up of what was to come next. Having them all nice and neat in a box set is amazing !! Lucky for those of you who are just discovering this author and this set now because you won't be waiting - instant gratification !! I reviewed them individually -

FALL FOR ME - 4 STARS
I have fallen in love with this author and her new series and serials that I was lucky enough to read so I was thrilled to hear she was revamping and re-releasing her older books so I had to sign on !!

Once again I was hooked on the characters , they had real life issues and some issues really hit close to home. The abusive boyfriend , the new school , the new journeys and the realization that your life is not your own and you need to change that. I will say Carter and Madison fall pretty quickly BUT when you have been treated poorly all your life as Madison has the second you see what you have missed out on you latch on and there is no way you wouldn't fall in love with Carter ! I loved Carter's family and how open they were to Madison. When you hear the stories of her past you can't help but want the best for her. There is a ton of angst and of course the back and forth. If you have ever been in an abusive relationship at a young age you get it , I know I get it , now as an adult I would think I would have more sense but Madison did what most girls that age do. They cower , they stay , they take it. Thankfully she has her out and she feels confident enough with her new friends to be able to survive. I enjoyed the journey , was scared , nervous and heartbroken at times and then of course was excited because lets face it CARTER IS AMAZING !! Since I did not read the book as previously released I do not know what has changed or stayed the same but I do know there are a few characters I would love to get to know more about and hopefully get that chance.

WAIT FOR ME - 4 STARS
I am so happy to have signed on for the re-releases of this series !! Having not read them before I have no clue of what changes were made , all I can say is I am enjoying the college aged angst , drama and sex !! LOL
You knew Jason and Nicole were going to have a fun or at least rollercoaster ride of a story to tell. I did hope for a little back tracking to the night they spent together but no biggie. They gave me enough steam to last a long time !! Jason and his family story intrigued me and come to find out Nicole's family story is not much better. Of course we have a couple twists and turns and one major twist that could have done major damage , thankfully it didn't.

Nicole has been waiting for Jason to smarten up and fall for her or admit he has fallen. Waking up to him is a pleasant surprise and it gives her the strength to finally ask what the heck they are doing. Does she get answers she wants ?? Well Jason isn't an easy nut to crack. his father's issues have long been a factor in his relationship woes. Can Nicole break down that wall and claim her man ?? I love them together , they may try little things to get on each others radar but it is fun and lighthearted. No major drama at first and they are super hot together. I love how we get more of the gang together and we also get some lead in for more stories. Can Jason and Nicole fight the odds and have that amazing love like Carter and Maddy ?? I hope so because I know I am looking forward to more from these couples in the books to come.

FIGHT FOR ME - 4 STARS
Another fun and fast read from this author !! The mystery of Shawn has been building for the past 2 books so obviously by now we are all freaking out wanting to know what the heck is going on. I kind of went with the assumptions of his friends and honestly what it was didn't even cross my mind for some reason !! I know I am slow with the hints.

So here we are in Shawn and Christen's world. Coming from two totally different lifestyles yet feeling a connection they can't deny. Christen has had a crush on Shawn for some time but he has been preoccupied. Now that the girls have found out his secret Christen takes it upon herself to check on him after. Once he really sees her he realizes she is beautiful and caring. After he finally confesses to his friends what has been going on he is then free to confront Christen about them. This is all quick and practically painless ! They have a fast and easy relationship and I enjoyed them together. Christen is very supportive and Shawn is actually an amazing guy. Once family gets involved things start to get messy. Shawn's family is great , they love Christen and they are very welcoming. They work hard and have a simple life. Although Shawn is fine attempting to hang with Christen's family her parents are not welcoming at all and their plans put a halt to anything we had been enjoying. With a little help from Jason , of all guys , Shawn is able to snap out of it and claim his girl. Of course we then have the game changing event. My only complaint here is that this event was major and could have used a little more time BUT regardless the way it all pans out and comes together works for me and now I am excited for the next book !


BREAKING FREE - 4 STARS
So I was shocked that this book strayed a bit from the gang and had Holly branching out , but DUH the title is Breaking Free so it really fits in more ways than one. I have enjoyed getting to know Holly and with her whole internet meet and greet thing going on I was curious to see what came of it. The story starts out with a BANG and then we come to the present and we really don't get much more detail about that horrible start. There are some flashbacks and nightmares but the blanks are slowly filled in. I did enjoy Drew and Holly's story, yes Drew was a jerk BUT go with the flow , Holly needed something to happen to break her out of her rut so why not a HOT AS SIN rocker with a crap attitude and a heartbreaking past !!

Holly has suffered a horrible event and is now left broken. She hates anyones touch , she avoids a lot and does not talk about what happened. Carter is on high alert after not being able to prevent her hurt and he drives Holly right out the door , and honestly I don't blame her. Not only is he smothering her but how can she not be intrigued by DREW FREAKIN WALKER and his bad boy , bad attitude !! Holly loves her brother and her friends but something feels right and for the first time in months Holly is able to be free. I will admit some of this may be hard to grasp with its quickness and craziness BUT it is a story and a feel good one at that. I flew through this in a matter of hours and enjoyed the escape from reality and had fun swooning over Drew !! They don't have an easy road and it is angsty and slightly juvenile but yet all things I love !! If you have followed the series it's a must , if you enjoy the author grab the whole series and dig in.

I swear I almost sent a hate email to her , which I have done before , BUT she quickly redeemed herself , it was a close call and I did yell at her out loud in my house despite the fact she can't hear me !!

I have read these book previously when they were released individually, and loved this series.
This box set consists of four book, each one centring around a couple.

Fall for me – Carter and Madison
This books covers some pretty intense topics and may have some triggers for some people.
We meet Madison who has had a crap upbringing so far and now she is in a abusive relationship with her boyfriend Chris. She doesn’t really know what love is until Carter shows her what it really is all about.As the book progresses she has the courage to end things with Chris and her relationship with Carter just grows from leaps and bounds. We don’t hear much from Chris after they break up but you just know something is going to happen.The ending no matter how much I love this book felt a little flat and sudden, with a little epilogue at the very end to tie it all up. I felt for the bool be as great at it was the ending felt a little rushed.
I totally loved how much Carter showed Maddy just what love is and I loved their relationship

Wait for me – Jason and Nicole
We first meet Jason and Nicole in Fall for Me, and I couldn’t wait to read their story and catch up on the other characters again.
I am loving Alexis’ books a the moment and this book is another fast read with a ton of sexiness.Jason has commitment issues and Nicole wants him to let her in, at the beginning their relationship is based on sex and playing games against one another. But Nicole doesn’t want to be another one of his love ’em and leave conquests so she gives him a push by showing up at a party with another guy. Her plan worked and the hook up as boyfriend and girlfriend but you can see Jason’s lack of relationships skills when he gets jealous at silly things = for example she auditions to be the lead in Romeo and Juliet and he is rather annoyed that she has to kiss some other guy.Things then take an unexpected turn that I did not see coming in the slightest!!! Seriously did not expect it and you are left thining can they pull through from this?
You will to read it to find out!

Fight for me – Shawn and Christen
Shawn has a secret and when his friends find out to say they are shocked is an understatement but they all rally round him. Chris has loved him from afar so to speak and he has never really thought of her as anything more than a friend – they are from totally different backgrounds
The spark is there and when they do act on it her family = mainly her dad comes between them and sees a who misunderstaing ensure between Shawn and Chris.

Breaking Free – Holly and Drew
I jumped right into this one thinking we were going to get Holly and Josh’s story.,… how it started I was not expecting! What we actually get is Holly and Drew. Did not see that coming one bit.
I am not sure what to make of this book, I enjoyed it but it was a different style to what I normally associate with Alexis. Drew is a control freak and Holly has just narrowly escaped from a bad situation with “Josh” that I couldn’t believe how easily she fell into step with Drew and his behaviour. His games and behaviour should have her running and cowring after her attack but instead she finds comfort in his touch and a sense of calm around him.
Both Holly and Drew have their demons and despite how he acts and his underlying flaws they are perfect for each other as each feel that connection,

I received an ARC of All For Me Box Set in exchange for my honest review.

This box set includes four stories, about friends in college. Fall for Me is about two college students, Madison and Carter. This story is considered the first book and introduces us to many people who later get their own books. This story is a sweet story with some dark twists that will have you reading as fast as you can to see what happens next. Madison is a orphan who has had a bad life. She has a boyfriend who is physically abusive, and can't understand why Carter even talks to her. These two are meant for each other but can they deal with Madison's ex who is trying to hurt her?
In Wait for Me, we get to see more friends from the first book and see where their romance takes them. Their story takes time, because Nicole will wait for Jason to get his shit together. Jason was raised believing women will leave him, after his mom left him and his dad. He has feelings for Nicole that he can't understand. This story is very much a self discovery story with a HEA worked in.
In Fight For Me, we get to see what has been going on with Shawn. Christen is a another fried who has been crushing on Shawn and can't believe that he's been fighting at a underground fight club in order to pay for his college tuition. This story is dark and twisted like, the first in the series. It will make you want to read the book faster to find out the fate of our main characters.
In Breaking Me, we get Holly's story. She has been in the other three books, so its nice she gets her own story. Unfortunately is starts off with her rape and kidnapping! After he events of this one night she is afraid and physical pained to have people touch her, that is until Hot Rocker Drew shows up and dragged her away. He truly wants her, more then anything else, and he takes the time to understand Holly, but he is still a very demanding man, which actually works for Holly.

All four stories are more like novellas, but together in this box set you get to read everyone story and it will actually take you more than a minute to read it! It is nice being in this world with these 8 people. All are great stories, but together they are amazing.
4.5 Stars

[Gretchen Anderson · Rating 4 out of 5]

Such a great series!!! Loved this very much!!

This 3-book trilogy showcases three best friends and how they get their woman!

In the first book, Fall For Me, Carter & Madison find each other at college and from the very first moment the chemistry is off the charts. The thing is…she has a boyfriend. It takes a lot of trust, on each of them, and even then it might not be enough.

In Wait For Me, Nicole and Jason are passionate and dynamic to the extreme. Nicole is so independent and Jason is so alpha that it’s almost like fighting is their fore-play. Even by the end they don’t have it totally figured out. Which is what I love about box sets…..you get to read one right after the other. Each of the characters are at least a little bit in each book.

Fight For Me brings us to Shawn (<——thank you for the traditional spelling!) and Christen. They are definitely the sweet couple. She is just an amazing person, despite her awful parents. They have plans for her to be perfect, act perfect, have the perfect career, the perfect man…..it’s not at all what she wants. It intimidates Shawn and makes him feel like he’s not good enough for her. Will she prove to him that he is and that he is what she wants no matter what her parents think? We also get a little more of Nicole & Jason too.

Breaking Free is about Carter’s little sister, Holly. Boy this girl has it from her brother and her father. However I think Carter is worse!!! Holly is one determined chick - trying to move on with her life. She hates being touched and finds that the only person that can get past this with is Drew. He’s everything she should not want. He’s an ass, he knows it and doesn’t care, he’s totally good looking and probably the main reason to stay away from him: he’s the lead singer in a band. Will she be able to find herself again with him or will he be the thing that finally breaks her for good?

Every one of these stories is a bit different and a bit the same. I love that and I love how they all are in each book. The writing style of Alexis is amazing, the characters are complex and developed and the endings are amazing!!!!

Very Highly Recommend!!!

[Fiction Vixens Blog · Rating 5 out of 5]

All For Me is a wonderful box set by Alexis Noelle ,and I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed these amazing story. Each of these story is totally different with couples that are within a circle of friends. Ms Noelle has given us a collection of story that will grab us and hold our attention , from start to finish and then will leave us wanting more from this author. Fall For Me is the story about Carter James and the beautiful Madison Stevens . And Wait For Me is centered around Jason and lovely Nicole. But then there's Fight For Me is the story about Shawn and Christen and then the last story is Breaking Free and this story is about Holly James and Drew Walker .I just can't pick one that I favored more then the rest, they all grabbed my heart and even make me cry some of the time ,and had my emotions running wild. I have to say that every story is awesome ,and every different and there all legends in their own way .My emotions rocked out of control from the very beginning ,and even now I can say I still haven't returned to normal yet. All 4 of these amazing story will melt your panties off well your tried up reading the steamy sex scenes .Ms. Noelle dialogue was hilarious with very bit of humor which was perfectly placed ,and with that being offer give us a break from all the intense and angst. This author has a brilliant writing style ,that I can say never disappointed me in any way, and I just can't wait until the next book or series comes out. But the flow of the twists and turns were great throughout all of these books. Without me realizing it I guess I did some swelling out loud ,because my husband told me more then once that I had a potty mouth. I could tell you more about all these story ,but that would spoil them for you. I highly recommend that you read this wonderful box set ,you won't be disappointed.

4 stars

"The choices we make and the chances that we take determine our destiny."

I am simply in awe with this series. It shows you that life throws all kinds of curve balls and you need to find out how to work through everything to get what you want. There are four couples that you get the privilege to read about. Learn their stories and see what they do to make it through everything that they need to, to become an us. I takes all kinds of work and when their pasts try to bury their futures you see what these couples are made of. How do you want to overcome everything you can to be the person and couple you want to be. The author tells these stories that make you think about what it would be to be the people she writes about. You have four different couples that have four distinct situations, and how they make it through the obstacles are very different. This author does a great job of showing us what love really means. You have the good stuff you have the bad stuff and you have the most awful stuff that no one wants to deal with. I absolutely love her style of writing, how she tells story is so unique and makes you fall in love with these couples over and over again. Although I loved all the stories my favorite will still be Carter and Madison's story.

This is not the first time I have read her books. she is becoming one of my favorite authors. I don't even read her blogs anymore, when I see that she is going to come out with I one click it right away. The way she can tell a story and pull you in and not let you go. All I can say is wow and can't wait to read another of her stories.

[Jennifer Pierson · Rating 5 out of 5]

All For Me is an amazing Box Set that I'm so glad that I got the opportunity to read all at once. Each book is about a different couple, within an awesome circle of friends. Fall For Me is about Carter James and Madison Stevens. Wait For Me centers around Jason and Nicole. Fight For Me is Shawn and Christen's story, and Breaking Free is about Holly James and Drew Walker.

I LOVED LOVED LOVED this box set so much, that I devoured every bit of it in less than 24 hours. Every story is so awesome, that I cannot pick just one to be my favorite. They are all different, but they have one big thing in common, they're all EPIC! My dramatic girly girl emotion switch was flipped from the beginning, and I still haven't successfully flipped it back off yet. All four of the stories are full of panty destroying sexy scene goodness without seeming similar. The hilarious dialogue made for perfectly placed humor that offered a break form the intense angst. Alexis Noelle's brilliant writing style never disappoints, and I couldn't get enough. She makes sure all the couples have a road to travel that had my eyes leaking, without any of them coming off as the same. Her twists and turns flowed through all four books, and made for some serious OMG moments that had me dropping f-bombs right and left. I cannot wait to see what this author comes up with next, and I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND All For Me Box Set to ALL!

"I grab her hair and pull it back, making her back arch, and hearing her moan deeper into the pillow. I know she likes it when I do that, even though the feminist inside her tells her she shouldn't."

4 all for me stars!! Perfect box set!

I loved this box set and I'll be honest I love everything Alexis writes!! This set includes Fall For Me, Wait For Me and Fight For Me! I will tell you right now I can't pick just one as my favorite. Each one is different and equally great!!! If you are up for a cute, sexy box set, then this is the set for you!

I so loved this series of books. I love how every couple was crazy about each other in their own way but to overcome something major before they finally said they loved each other. I also loved how each character came from a different types of background. You had everything from the privileged, blue color to the broken home or never having a home. It was crazy how much I fell in love with these characters. I felt like part of the gang by the time I finished it. My favorite couple has to be Holly and Drew, I truly believe she saved the best for last.
Maybe this was my copy but I found a bunch of typos that should have been easily caught. Words either shoved together or missing all together. There wasn't many but it did throw me off a bit. I did really enjoy reading all these books and can't wait to read more from this author! I'd highly recommend picking up this boxset!

DISCLAIMER: The author gave me an e-ARC of this book, in exchange for honest review.

Wow, wow, wowza! This set is amazing! Alexis' writing is so good. Upon reading the first couple's story, I was engulfed into my kind of love-story. I loved watching the character find their ways in to love and the troubles they have emotionally (and physically), the ups and downs. The battle they fight to keep their love. It's all amazing and so beautiful. I love the guys; I love that the characters are all friends with each and we get to see each of them find love. I think this deserves more than 5 stars.

[Amber - TBR Book Blog · Rating 4 out of 5]

I hadn't read these stories individually before the box set and I'm kinda glad. I would have wanted to know ASAP what happened to each person/couple and I suck at patience, especially when it comes to books.

Each couples' story is different but they're all interconnected. I love box sets like this. You get to learn a bit about each character, enough so that you're intrigued to know all about them. And we get that in this box set!

I personally love the family dynamic between characters like this where they have an awesome support system and people always willing to call them on their s**t.

Another great series from Ms Noelle!
