Grayson Sibling #2.5
Keep Us
For the Grayson family the holidays have always been a time of togetherness.
Eat, drink, and be merry is their motto, but not this year . . .
With Marcus and Riley knee deep in their flourishing careers, their spouses, Tessa and Beck, have been decking the halls and dashing through the snow without support from the busy Grayson duo. A new baby is on the way for one of these ladies and she hasn’t even had the chance to tell the daddy; plans for a huge holiday feast are up in the air because priorities are out of whack; unexpected visitors and a bomb of a surprise from Mr. Grayson—it’s safe to say this holiday will be far from jolly.
Tempers are high, feelings are bruised, and it’s not something spiked eggnog can cure. Will Marcus and Riley make it home for the holidays or will Tessa and Beck be forced to ring in the New Year alone?

Really short read, finished it in about 30 minutes, but it still packed a lot. I have not read the first two books in the series so this is my introduction to the Grayson family. I still enjoyed this though. It's realistic enough without being too angsty. Of course, the fact that you have a hot underwear model who has a hot firefighter as his best friend makes it fictional (yeah, those men don't exist in my world, lol). I loved how it shows their family dynamic, the interaction between the characters. Nobody was left untouched, not even the kids as there were some really cute moments from Claire Bear and Luca. The only thing that would have made this better for me is if I had read the first 2 books. But, that's all on me :).

I just adored this holiday novella featuring my man Marcus. Oh, and there were a few other people included as well! But Marcus will always be the most important. :~)
It's so great to catch up with the entire Grayson family and spend the holidays with them! Loved getting the different points of views and seeing what everyone has been up to, and how they all deal with the craziness of the holidays. There's so much love in this family, and that's what the holidays are all about!
I could never get enough of the Graysons!

This a quick, easy holiday read. I finished in about 40 minutes. If you love the Grayson's like I do, you'll be happy to catch up to them as they celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. Even hot firefighters and sexy underwear models have to deal with family drama, ruined dinners and horrible commutes.

What a great well written holiday novella, it was great to catch up with Grayson's for this festive and Steamy read and Faith certainly didn't disappoint!!! I couldn't put it down!

Keep Us is a short holiday read that packed quite the punch. I seriously enjoyed it, but I just wished it was longer. Faith Andrews is an author with a talented writing style, so any novella is going to have me ready to cry, as I'll ALWAYS need more. The Grayson's are back with super hot sexy goodness, original emotional angst (thankfully not over the top), and some witty banter plus adorable kids who really added some hilarious moments. I loved how it showed where they are now over Thanksgiving, Christmas, and finally New Years. Not to mention, it reminded me, once again, that I CANNOT GET ENOUGH of the Grayson family, so I'm HIGHLY RECOMMENDING this sassy Holiday story!

Oh those Grayson kids- I swear if its not one thing, it's fifteen others! Marcus and Riley truly know how to bring the holiday mayhem. It was fun catching up with this nutty yet charming bunch.
From turkey troubles to a shocking Mrs. Claus and turkey to toddlers there was not shortage of Grayson family drama this holiday season. I liked seeing Marcus as his true swoony self and Riley in all her frazzled glory. But there to bring them back was sweet Tessa and sexy Beck!
Keep Us was short, fun and sexy read that made made long for some holiday shenanigans with my brothers while at the same time say "thank goodness that disaster didn't happen to me!"

I love novellas. You get another glimpse into your favorite character’s lives, that we have grown to love. It was a fun and festive story that pulls you in from the beginning and leaves you with wanting more. I love how much story we get in such few pages. This story shows how real life happens after the happily ever after. I loved getting each of the character’s views and getting into their heads. The holidays are a crazy time in the Grayson family and priorities have become lost. However love and family conquer all and that’s something the Grayson clan is definitely not lacking. I love the Grayson’s and hope we get more in the future

Nothing better than getting to hang out with some of your favorite characters for the holidays. Keep Us is a great story that shares heartfelt moments alongside the chaos and unpredictability of the holidays. We see so much happening with everyone we meet and it is a non stop story of ups and downs combined with the inevitable stress of the holidays. The story moves from one POV to another and keeps everything fast paced. Getting a glimpse into the happily ever afters of the Grayson family is a holiday treat you will not want to miss. Prepare to laugh out loud and commiserate with these characters. Andrews nailed this short story and gives her readers a holiday gift to cherish!

A Review of Keep Us: A Grayson Holiday Tale by Faith Andrews
Surprises galore! - 5 stars
A quick little read to catch up with the couples from the previous two books in the series. There's a baby on the way for one of the couples, but with the guys so busy, they don't have time to learn about this or support their wives endevors. What other surprises will this holiday season bring? Will they be happy or sad? A little bit on the short side, but perfect for that little taste we were craving.

A super quick read that lets the reader catch up with beloved characters from the Grayson siblings series.
You get a brief glimpse of their lives from Thanksgiving to New Years and see what comes after the "happily Ever After."
This novella length story is really for readers who have read both of the prior books, but it would probably be good as long as you have read one of the stories. Just be aware - lots of potential spoilers if you haven't read them yet!

I loved being in the company of Marcus, Tessa, Riley, and Beck again! And boy were their holidays a handful. But is saying that they reminded me that in real life things really don't always go as planned... And that's perfectly fine when you remember all you need in the end is your family. That is in fact what the holidays are all about and I think the Grayson's realized just that and learned all they need is each other!

This was a great, festive, fun addition to all things Grayson!! You should read the previous books before this novella Keep Me and Keep Her. It may be short but it is definitely a worthy piece to the series. I'd forgotten how much I missed them all. Beautifully written as always, I loved it. As always I just wished it was longer. Thank you.

Wow! I loved getting back in touch with these couples.
This was a short story of the craziness the Grayson's have during the holidays. They all have different things going on keeping them from their family. Now they must try to figure out how to come together and make more time for each other.

Faith Andrews proves once again what an amazing author she is.

I loved catching up with the characters from this series! Beck, Riley, Tessa, and Marcus are some of my favorite characters and it was awesome seeing where the two couples are in their lives now. This was a short read but there was a lot of story packed into it.

Provided an ARC for an honest review.
Very quick read. I expected it to be a short story, but way too much going on in such a short book. I liked reading more about the Grayson siblings plus spouses, but so much happened that lots of it felt unfinished & hurried.

Keep Us is a super cute, fast read that gives a little glimpse into past characters that we all love so much! You must read Marcus and Tessa and Beck and Riley's books before you read this. A super cute holiday book that would be perfect for a "stocking stuffer" type gift.

Faith Andrews is amazing! I love all of her books but this series is one of my favorites. I loved catching up with Marcus and Tessa, also Beck and Riley. This was a great short story!

Awesome Novella
Through the ups and downs, the love of these couples is so inspiring. Riley and Marcus accepting the woman their father has fallen in love with and married after suffering the loss of his beloved wife some years back.

Silly series of events for the Grayson clan.
November 24, 2016
Great fun catching up with the Grayson siblings and their families. We get multiple POV's and a look inside the craziness that is the holidays where everything and anything can and does go wrong. But what makes it special is the love that Marcus will always have for his Tessa and the love that Riley will always have for her Beck. Being with a Grayson is never easy but always worth it. This sweet novella proves just that, even for their Dad who has a surprise of his own to share. Plenty of laughs and tender moments in this one. And a wonderful addition to this series.

I volunteered to read this book.
Keep Us in a holiday novella about Marcus, Tessa, Riley, Beck and their families. You really need to read the previous book before this one. I was looking forward to seeing a glimpse into their lives and it was great to see what they were up to. This was a very quick read that packed a lot of events and emotions into a few chapters. I would have loved this to be a longer novella, one where things weren't so rushed over, but it was still entertaining.

It was nice getting an update on the Grayson's. I enjoyed getting a glimpse of how their lives turned out. Marcus and Riley are so busy at work that they almost miss Thanksgiving. Tessa is overwhelmed trying to make Thanksgiving successful. This was short story packed full. It had angst, hot sex, pregnancy and humor. I enjoyed it and recommend that everyone who has read the series take a few minutes to read this cute novella that I think most of can relate to.

I loved reading about Marcus and Tessah's lives currently. Faith has written a wonderful feel good holiday novella that allows readers to reconnect. If you enjoy a light read about the holidays then this book is for you. I received an ARC for my honest review.
