So it seems somebody got very disturbed with my previous review and decided to flag it although it didn't contain any profanity addressed towards the author. Anyway since I have to focus my content on the book itself I will say this: the series is a waste of your time, every book is almost the same, just change the names and some situations. Copy paste and all that. I absolutely loathed the book and I do not recommend this to anyone.
If you are still disturbed by the review, well at least now it is nicely put between the guidelines.
Cocky Roomie Holy Big O – my e-reader was on fire!!!!! I love the banter between Jake and Drew. Tension makes for great scenes. Not only is this story hot it is also sweet and loving. Jake is an old soul in a young body. I like how Jake wanted to make everything right for Drew. Drew just pulled at my heart – she definitely deserved better than what she had and fortunately Jake is there to bring joy to her life. This story embodies a theme I really like in books – families are important. They are there for each other and will help in any way they can. They do not always agree but that is okay, they still love each other. So looking forward to reading the other brothers’ stories.
Cocky Biker I read romances to escape and come away with a smile and this book does that – only it adds in emotions that most of us would never want to feel. Luna’s tormented soul needs Jett’s equally tormented but loving soul. “Tear ‘em Down To Stand ‘em Up”. This motto has a two-fold meaning in the book – both for the Ciphers (love them and their stance in making wrongs right) and Luna and Jett. How sad to think that you are incapable of love and want to be a loner…but Jett will not let that happen. He is definitely an alpha and badass, but you get to see a side of him that is loving and caring and wonderful. Again, family plays a big part in the story and even though they have their ups and downs, they are always there for each other. Even the father comes around, just a little. It is not a fairytale family but a real family with regular everyday problems. Who will be next???
Cocky Cowboy Red rover, red rover, send Jaxson right over. This story is a little different take on second-chance love and is so very sweet. Not to say that the sexy times are not there, they are, in spades. Jaxson and Rachel have to deal with emotional issues that only make them a stronger couple. I love both of the characters and you can feel the love blossoming in their relationship from the beginning. Faleena, you have thrown me for a loop again and I love it. Family means everything to the Cockers and seeing the brothers pull together to help one another overcome adversity is a beautiful thing.
I read all of these as standalone books and if you have never read Faleena, give her books a try. They are full of wonderful feelings of family and love.
Fabulous collection that has a bit of drama, action, suspense, camaraderie, family love, humor, marvelous vivid scene descriptions, sultry males, sassy ladies, romance that sizzles; each couple gets their happily ever after but not before conquering the obstacles that stand in their way.
JAKE & DREW; Jake’s youngest brother has joined the Marines leaving him short a roommate; he posts an ill-mannered add determined to get the right one. Drew’s in Atlanta wanting to start a new life. Living with her best friend has not turned out well and she answers Jake's add. Jake is stunned when he is greeted by a lovely sultry woman with a male name looking to rent. Jake realizes the fantasies he has about his roommate is not enough; his self-control is dwindling, and finding a way to make Drew his becomes his number one priority.
JETT & LUNA; The Ciphers are on a mission for the greater good in California. Thirsty and hungry they stop at the same diner where Luna is. Jett notices Luna and is immediately drawn to her. Not wanting to pass up an opportunity with the beauty he sits down at her table. Luna wants no part of his overconfident persona and makes it known to him that his presence is unwanted. What starts out as simple flirting sets Jett on fire when he realizes that the woman who keeps running from him is the only woman he will ever want.
JAXSON & RACHEL; Jaxson has his own ranch, doesn’t talk much, can have any woman he wants and as far as relationships go he can live without them. Rachel and Jaxson were best friends and they grew apart. The two meet again after years when she if visiting her family. New feelings blossom into wild passion, but their future holds obstacles that threaten to tear them apart. Emotions run high in this second chance romance.
INCREDIBLE; I relished each of this captivating stories. The characters are certainly credible and each romance is genuine. I adore the family love and find this author's stories to be uplifting and can't help but cheer at the end of each one; all entertaining and gratifying reads.
The start the next series you won't want to put down. Jake and Drew and just cute. Classic case of May-December but with a twist! I love marshmallow Jake too cute! And sweet Drew can't even figure out here bestie is a hooker...classic small town girl. Super steamy and Jake and Drew are hilarious and and adorable. I loved them and their story. This story introduces the players and really just makes its impossible for you to not keep everyone's HEAs.
Cocky Biker (Cocker Brothers of Atlanta #2)
We visit the Cocker's again in the 2nd installment and are not disappointed. Jett and Luna led us on a thrilling bike ride full of heat adventure and most importantly love. Luna has to learn the most difficult lesson of all the strength to learn go Love and Trust. Jett shows Luna that he is not only sexy and tough but everything she could ever want. Perfect HEA. Can't wait for the next Cocker Brother tale!
Cocky Cowboy (Cocker Brothers of Atlanta #3)
Jaxs and Rach are star-crossed lovers that find their way back to each other after decades apart if that's not a HEA I don't I know what is. This chapter of the Cocker Brother saga keeps on the edge of your seat. For a while their you are like OMG OMG OMG why am I doing this to myself and why am I reading this. But they get their happy ending and all is forgiven. Another great storyline. Bring on the next.
Looking for a series to read? This is the right one for you if you love twists and turns and HEA endings. Be warned you may very well become hooked but Faleena Hopkins has enough books out to keep you busy until the next one. Her writing leaves you feeling good and wanting to be part of the Cocker family. Although all her books in this series are about the Cocker family members they are each very different. No matter the story I found something I could relate to. Ms. Hopkins has a way with words that made me feel like I was reading about people I actually knew and cared about. I became engrossed before I realized it. Even about the everyday mundane becomes interesting in her words. I have not been disappointed with any of her books and I highly recommend this author. At first read these books seem like a light easy read but when you stop and think about the story you realize the insight she has about human nature and people in general. Ms. Hopkin’s books always lift me up. There have been times I have laughed and cried, she invokes deep emotions in the threads of her stories. while it is different for everyone but there is something for everyone in her stories. You just never know when or where you will find it! Give the Cocker family a chance and you will want to stay for the BBQ!
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I had previously read each of these books individually. Absolutely LOVE this series. So well written - you just feel like you are part of the family. It’s so awesome to have three of the books all in one place. You MUST read this series and this is a great way to get started.
Jake is in search of a roommate, however, when Drew turns out to be a female - can he resist the pull he feels towards her?
Jett is somewhat of a loner, in conflict with his father. He is part of a biker club that helps people. He meets Luna in a restaurant and sparks fly.
Jackson is also a bit of a loner and enjoys spending time on his ranch. He met Rachel when they were just kids and best friends. Many years later, they meet again and have to navigate through many ups and downs. Will they find their HEA?
Don’t miss your chance to enjoy three Cocker brothers books in one box set!
I recommend this box set to anyone who has not yet started this series! You won't be disappointed! These guys and this family will work their way into your heart from book 1. They are honest, hard working men who are fiercely loyal to the family and the strong women in their lives. Jake, Jett, and Jaxson are the hottest guys out there and their stories inspire the readers to their own personal growth. I've never read a series that made me want to be a member of this family more than the Cockers. Enjoy this starter set as an introduction into the family! You can almost taste the fresh Gingerale!

I love this series!!!! Faleena Hopkins has brought us this amazing Cocker family that started out with 6 sexy, alpha brothers and the strong, independent woman that bring them to their knees. This is a must read series!!! You get it all, drama, action, romance, humor, and of course hot, steamy passion.
I love Faleena's books and love that she put the first three in a box set! They are so much fun to read and I would totally buy the set if I didn't already have them.A great place to start this series!
I love this series and it's so great that they are now coming out in box sets. Once you start reading one you can't wait to carry on with the next one. The Cocker family will become your own. In each book you learn more about them, not just the featured character. They are such a beautiful family and I love their quirky, snarky humour. And, by the why, these men........not just beautiful inside. Hot too!!!
I read these books as individuals. If you are thinking about starting this series. Stop right now. Get over to your book supplier and get them. You will enjoy them and get eager for the rest. Welcome to a cocky family.

The Cockers are quite a set of siblings and family members. You will be drawn into their lives and become one of the honorary family members by the time you get through them all! #Cockerfamilyforever!!
OMGoodness. Jake, Jett, and Jaxson. So much hotness in one book set. These three men started my love of the Cocker family and Faleena Hopkins. It's amazing how much you are drawn into their lives. This three book set is a great way to get started if you haven't read them. You will be in love with the whole family and find yourself quoting Grandma May Cocker and her signature saying.
Three favorites in one book? Wheat more could you ask. My all-time most loved author and series. I’m feel so much a part of this family, which is a gift that Faleena gives her readers. The men are to die for, the women are so feisty, Gram is adorable and the love is felt on every page. Thank you Faleena for your talent and your love.
This style of writing is my favorite. Steamy scenes with plenty of romance. I have read and re-read the first three stories multiple times, and I plan to read them again. I definitely plan to follow this author.
Iv read all the books so far and love them. Faleena Hopkins is the queen as far as I’m concerned. I always wait with baited breath for every new book released
Drew moved from Dublin GA. Drew always wanted to live in the big city. Now she needs a new place to call home after her husband, soon to be ex, screwed her over.
Now looking to move off of her friends sofa she answers a ad for a roommate. Jake Cocker is that roommate. Jake does not want to room with a woman but after Drew makes it clear she really needs this he gives in.
Drew keeps to herself and Jake is even more intrigued. After some time and a new found friendship with the 2 roommates, things get taken to the next level. Jake has to leave for a bit and Drew's friend tries to get in the middle of things.
Once Jake is back in town and Drew's new job is going well the 2 clear the air and try to figure out their next move.
I like Jake's truthfulness and his arrogance. He is confident and there is nothing wrong with that. Drew is easily understood with her past experience and men with her cautiousness to trust Jake and also not wanting to lose who she is and compromise her morals for Jake. Drew is old fashioned and wants a monogamous relationship which is completely understandable.
The 2 characters make a good couple with Jake's assertiveness and Drew's sweetness.
Luna "Sunshine" is a loner. She has a mission to complete. She has trained for it and will not stop until someone is dead by her hands.
Jett Cocker is part of the Ciphers MC. They do good but a little outside the law. His father the congressman is not happy with his choice of lifestyle. His brothers know he has to be who he is and be free.
In a little cafe Luna and Jett cross paths. Jett cannot stop wanting to get to know this fireball. Jett thinks she has gotten away before he even had a chance but another chance encounter changes both of their lives.
**SPOILER**
I love how Luna is in control of her life, how strong she is, how much of a mystery she is and how kickass she is. I like the softness that shows through Luna when she is with Jett and that vulnerability that is so heartbreaking. I fell for this character. When Jett looks towards a future with Luna, I love that she is with him on the road as part of the MC. I like that Jett sees she can kick ass and not want her to stay at home with the woman. I like that he sees her strength and the same need to be on the road and help that he has.
Jaxson likes the quiet and tranquility of his Ranch. He milks his cows and gathers eggs every morning. It's a good life.
Rachel is dating Ryan. Ryan will not commit and Rachel does not want to waste time in a failing relationship even though she does love Ryan.
A chance encounter and a well timed relationship break brings the 2 together for one hot sizzling night.
Rachel leaves GA and goes back to NY to resume her life. But there are other plans for her.
I liked the playfulness between Jaxson and Rachel, like they were still 9 years old. It was super sweet. Jaxson is a sweet man and has loved Rachel for a long time. Rachel I feel the same she has loved Jaxson since they were kids and they were meant to be together.
Cocky Roomie Jake has been burned too many times by women and does not think he can find one to trust. Drew's elegance and determination to make her own way resonate deeply with him and he grows to care for her. Not that he will admit that to anyone, much less himself. Drew wants to stand on her own and she is not one for casual relationships, which is all Jake seems to be after. A great story. Two people, from different worlds, realizing what they want in life. Jake and Drew face troubled times, Jake not feeling good enough, a crazy friend, and Jake sent away for work.
Cocky Biker Jett is the black sheep of his family, at least to his father. He dispenses justice from his own hands, with The Ciphers. Luna has been on her own since she was ten and saw way too much of life before that. She has one goal in life, to find him and end his life. Jett and Luna cross paths in their quests for justice. Both fall hard for one another, but Luna is not in a place to love herself, much less let anyone else in to her life. A dark read dealing with this MC group that searches out the horrible things in life and takes them head on.
Cocky Cowboy Rachel and Jaxson knew each other as children, until Rachel and her family moved away. Jaxson was always able to talk with Rachel unlike anyone else. Rachel lives with Ryan, a stuck up and self centered lawyer. When Jaxson sees Rachel again, the sparks fly. Jaxson is determined to not let her get away again. I enjoyed this second chance romance, with many twists and turns. I did not like Rachel's devotion to Ryan when the story opened with her realizing what a jerk he is and how poorly he treats her and most everyone else around him. She also discovers the goals they talked about at the beginning of their relationship are not his anymore and he expects her to be happy about the change. Even with his horrible words and treatment, she continues to say she love him. It was frustrating.
This box set was amazing and each book just got better and better. My favorite brother so far, Jett! Since this is a box set I'll summarize my reviewer books are about a family with 5 boys that don't take sh'! From anyone, romance, laughter (lol moments, gramma and her " language), hard topics, steamy scenes, hard topics and drama. But at the heart of these books is love, acceptance, loyalty and family! These books are for you if you like strong males, good stories, continued characters, storyline building, so it gives you more of the characters you love with each brothers book. 4 stars instead of 5 because some parts of these stories you have to suspend belief and read on, this was especially true in book 3. I won't say more or give anything seat but you'll understand when you read the chapters.
I have no complaints from book one to book three except out wasn't the complete series ☺. However i am grabbing the other books now. Each book is a standalone but reading them all you will be drawn to do. There's so much pain, drama, passion, intrigue, love, intelligence, funny, wildness, etc in this family you never want their stories to end
Love these boys! The love they have for one another is awesome. Can't wait to read more. This was the first book I read from this author and it definitely won't be the last.
One for all and all for one. Close relationships for the Cocker family. All six boys have looks, money , and sex appeal. Unfortunately, they also fall for women that make them fight for their "happily ever after" .
I can't believe these boy's but so love it. They all seem to live up to their last name and yet all find the one lady that calls them on it. Definitely carrying on with this series.
These books were great,I love reading boxed sets because it makes you feel like the characters invited you in to be part of their family while you read these books.Buy this boxed set ,it is so good.
The brothers are so very confident in themselves and very respectful to the women they fall head over heels for. There's passion, humor and some drama. Love it. Can't wait to read the rest of the series.
