I absolutely love this series. The past two or three books have been even better, if that's even possible. Vale has just upped the suspense and strengthened the plot. Don't worry though. That panty melting goodness is still prevalent throughout each book. Thank the lord!

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

I received a copy of this ARC for my honest review.
What a fun, fast paced book that just kept this reader turning the pages till the end. I love this series and sure wouldn't mind being a Bridgewater bride and having 2 smoking hot cowboys at my beck and call. Well worth your time to take an afternoon and sit back relax and enjoy another winner.

Oh man, what a wild and erotic ride!

Abigail is shy, timid woman that has been tormented for as long as she can remember for a scar on her face. Although the scar came from saving her beloved brother from a fire, no one seem to look beyond that blemish. Despite this, her heart desires two men that she believes doesn't even know she exist.

Tucker and Gabe have had their eyes set on one woman for years and now that she's back in town, he decide to make their move. However, news gets around that their woman may have a beau that will stand in their way. But after a conversation with Abigail they know this man will not be a problem, so they make a plan to claim her.

But Abigail has a secret that could cost more than just money. She will do whatever it takes to protect her men even if it cost her own life.

I greatly enjoyed this story even though I hadn't read any of the previous books. Their Brazen Bride can be read as a standalone since each book features a different couple. The sparks that flows between the three fly off the pages and their passion is undeniable. Hot mama, those three really know how to heat things up. I particularly loved how Gabe and Tucker went after what they wanted and didn't let anything or anyone stand in their way. Additionally, their protective over Abigail is astounding. But I think what I love best would the way they strove to show Abigail that she's more than her scar touch my heart and soul.

I would recommend this book and the series to any romance lover looking for a quick and sultry read.

This girl really bugged me! This story bugged me! Every one of these book are almost the exact same thing! 🤦‍♀️

Besides for this girl is only 19 yet her two guys have watched & wanted her since she was 17 😳

She constantly lies to them which just drags the story, it was so boring!

This is also the second story of a man who wants to marry a rich young girl because his copper mine has gone dry & he needs money.
This time the guy didn’t want to marry the female protagonist but her best friend who faked being rich so he’s holding her hostage until our female protagonist gets him money.

After back & forth between our girl & her two husbands (yet again these books make it look so easy to get married, it literally took minutes)

In the end they help her with her friend.

This book was boring & all the spice has become the same, even the way they talk is word for word the same.

Abigail Carr has a secret one in Bute and another at home. While trying to protect her friend from a horrible suiter and save her life. Once home from school Abigail runs into her childhood crushes. Well the story that she has woven to save her friend destroys her future with her men. The Landry brothers make their interest towards Abigail while in town for a friend's wedding. Abigail understands the ways of the men from Bridgewater Ranch. Will Abigail be able to keep her dominating men and save her friend’s life.

Vanessa Vale has an amazing series here. I got hooked in Their Kidnapped Bride and just want more. A complete page turner that leaves you wanting more. I will be sad to see this series end.

1.5 maybe

By now we are all familiar with Bridgewater and seems like outsiders are too so it's no longer such a big secret that two men marry one woman, but this book was just hurried pointlessly, especially since there was no other bloody reason (like in the previous books - the marriage does not save the woman from whatever reason there is for her to be saved), all characters are already inloved with each other but they just confess and immediately get married because sex outside the marriage is a n0-no. Also the story was quite ridiculous and I just did not like anyone in this book.

Plus I am also getting bored of the series and I am definitely out of my spicy mood because it took me 5 days to finish a 3.5h book when the rest of the series I listen to two books per day or so.

Love deferred - I listened to the Audible version. Abigail has loved Gabe and Tucker since she was a young girl. Now she is old enough to be taken seriously but there is no chance they would want the woman with a scar. Unbeknownst to her, the men have been waiting for her to ripen to womanhood. The first chance they get, she is swept off to their ranch to be wed and claimed as their own. But she has to leave town to save a friend from certain death. How will she ever slip away from her two amorous mates? Another steamy, suspenseful addition to the Bridgewater series. The women are as brazen as the men in this one, openly discussing the state of their respective marriages. Great narrators.

[Cheryl Sanders · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the Bridgewater Ménage series book 8 and it's about Tucker and Gabe Landry and Abigail Carr. This is a case of each knowing what they want but never telling the other until it was almost too late. She'll do whatever it takes to save her friend, even at the expense of the relationship with the two men she's wanted forever. Even though she's self-conscious of her scar she's a very strong woman. She'll need to be in order to handle the extremely sexy Landry brothers. In the end, I don't think she'll be telling any more lies.

Fantastic read! I can't wait to see what's next in this fabulous series.

3.5 of 5 stars
Another quick but satisfying Vanessa Vale story. This one was a bit different from previous Bridgewater books I’ve read in the way that the main characters have known each other for years instead of a first meet or insta-love type of thing. In this case the men had just been waiting for the right time to make their woman theirs. There were several interesting plot points driving the story and it all came to a good conclusion. I always wish these books were longer but I’m always at least happy that I got a complete story with no loose ends. I will continue to pickup this author’s books whenever I can.

[La'Jacinth · Rating 4 out of 5]

Gabe and Tucker (brothers by marriage) made is clear that they were waiting for Abigail, the problem is Abigail didn't know and she thought she had to save her friend.

As always the Men of Bridgewater goes after what they want. Gabe and tucker agree to tale Abigail back to Butte under the guise of her going back for "fiancé" well they make a detour, and that detour cums (pun intended) with marriage, one or two fights and a whole lot of misunderstanding.

Talking it out fixes all issues along with quite a few love taps to remember that once claimed...you really do love to obey the rules.

[Gloria · Rating 4 out of 5]

I’m making my way through this series but this one is so far my favorite. We actually get a plot people!! Don’t get me wrong, I love Vale’s smutty story lines but it gets tiring just listening to sex scenes with no substance behind it.

Also loved that Vale included a chubby heroine in a book before this and now a FMC with a face scar WHO GETS SHOWN SHE DESERVES LOVE AND IS MORE THAN HER SCAR.

Only thing that made this a little ick for me was “we waited until she was of age” because their ages weren’t specifically mentioned so that threw me off a bit 🤷🏻‍♀️

Secrets

Abigail, Tucker and Gabe

Disfigured from a young child, Abigail was talked about, made fun of.
Tucker, angry from childhood, for what he did to his sister. The only good thing in his life, was when he gained a brother, Gabe.
Tucker and Gabe do everything together. Love the same woman together. That's exactly what happened between them and Abigail.

This was a great story, a quick read. It comes highly recommended.

[Barbara · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is another book in the ongoing Bridgewater series where two (or more) men marry one woman. This story about Abigail, Tucker and Gabe felt a little rushed. There was heated attraction, dominance and some danger which is the normal formula of these books, but this one seemed to move along quickly without much interation with other characters. It was good, just not as developed as other stories in the series have been.

[Tammy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Fast paced steamy read. Abigail has had a crush on Gabe and Tucker and now that she is back from finishing school to her surprise they want to claim her as their own. Abigail is hiding something from her new husbands what will happen with the truth is revealed. Love this series, my only complaint that I wish they were longer.

Braden

Tucker, Gabe and Abigail's story just filled me up. I can't even explain why I love their story so much. Love praised maybe? Hopeless romantic? I don't know but it's so beautiful... And as steamy as the rest is the series.

[Cassie · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was an awesome read, had the suspense to go with it as well as the steamy love scenes. Her alpha men come to her rescue. A great read.
