A raw, dark and gritty series that will have you at the edge of your seats dieing with anticipation with what will happen next! The Locke brothers are dangerous, mysterious and destructive but you can't help to get drawn in and fall in love with their damaged souls. Having them all here in one box set is all you could want and so much more!

I love, love, loved this book. Each couple was better than the last. You can see the love, loyalty and fierceness that all three of these couples had for each other. Intense, beautiful, head spinning good. Once again Wen & Kai did an absolutely awesome hob narrating.

Damaged Locke
What an introduction to the Locke boys. These men are harsh, brutal and unforgiving. However they are also loyal and protective of the ones they love.

Aston and Kadence interest in one another was instant. Kadence sees the aftermath of a locke brother beatdown and she in interested. In some ways, I worried about her when she found this man all bloody sexy. However when you got inside of Kadence's head it all made sense.

Aston was just as surprised by his interest and the severity of it right away. However he was a man who knew what he wanted and that was Kadence.


Savage Locke
Sterling and Wynter were two individuals who were interested in each other in high school but never acted on it. Wynter was the girl that got away. However Wynter is back now and she is in need of protection. There is only one man who can provide that to her.

I really liked these two as a couple. They had a back story and when they talked about the times they wanted to go to each other but didn't, it broke my heart.

Sterling decides very quickly that he isn't letting Wynter go. He knows what he needs to do to protect the woman that he loves.

One aspect of this series that I really liked was the sense of family. Even though she goes to Sterling for help, he gets the whole Locke crew that I really enjoyed that.


Twisted Locke
Once I started this series, I have to admit, I most wanted Ace's story. Not that I didn't like the other brothers but Ace was just different and you got to know more about him in all the books. I also liked that the woman Melissa who interested him was also in all the books. This made their mating dance even more fun and let you know when they finally got their book, it was going to be explosive.

Melissa has been afraid of the Locke brothers for years. It wasn't until her best friend got involved with the youngest Locke brother that her feelings began to change. What I enjoyed most about this book was the fears that Melissa had felt real. I think this is why I identified with her the most. The other two woman in the other books, just jumped right in with these dangerous men so I was happy to see Melissa taking a slower approach. I'm glad that she gave Ace a chance but I'm just happy that she weird her options and worked through if she could handle his aggression.

Ace was the most damaged but I also think he was the most protective. Melissa would want for nothing and be loved better than anyone ever could.

Damaged Locke - Misunderstood for his actions Ashton Locke and his brothers are thought of as dangerous and everyone stays out of their paths. That is until Kadence sees him standing outside her house with blood on his cloths and dripping from his hands. What starts out as fascination ends up with two hearts finding their soulmate. But can she get past the horrible things he does, even if it is for the right reasons? I absolutely loved this story. It had me locked in from the opening pages and I could not stop reading.
Savage Locke - The Locke brothers always fight for the underdog and when it comes to the one girl Sterling always watched out for in high school this becomes personal. Wynter had nowhere else to go when the abuse from her boyfriend got out of control but straight into Sterling's arms. Now Sterling will keep her safe and secure no matter what happens. With beautifully written characters and a storyline that had be on the edge of my seat this was a must read.
Twisted Locke – Abe has always looked out for his brothers, as the eldest he has a reputation for being the meanest and the nastiest. But when Melissa comes into his life will he be able to tame the beast within him and not scare her off? Or will the beast be something that she can turn to to feel safe and secure? One broken soul able to heal and find a future? As much as I loved the first two brothers Abe's story will stay with me long after the book is over.

exact same story' told in 3 books. 3 brothers are portrayed as dont mess with us we are hard fighters keep to ourselves and away from everyone , starting off living in the one house. they fight for the weak who can't protect themselves. they all find love and tell the women they have to submit to them in the bedroom and then proceed to have the most vanilla sex. each book is about one brother at a time finding love.
basic and very predictable . 3 brothers with a reputation but just want to find love and keep there woman happy. no plot changes and when a side character shows up that the brothers dont like your told ill deal with him later.

The Dangerous, Deadly Locke Brothers

This is a three book boxset I read from KU. First off, I have loved everything I've ever read by Victoria Ashley. So except for the length it didn't seem any different with Jenika Snow collaborating. Each book was about a brother and the woman he claimed. Their earlier lives with parents trained them to be brutal. Town people were afraid of the brothers because of how violent and rough they were. But I'm not saying more then once you start reading you won't put it down, it's that good, each book ties in. So start reading.

So hot!

This anthology is about Aston, Sterling and Ace Locke. They are 3 brothers known in town to be gorgeous, violent and dangerous. They might just be those things, but they are also fierce, protective, loyal and looking for the right girl to love hard.

Although these guys are violent (and it’s brutal to read) they also have morals and use their violence against those that wrong innocent people. Once they find their women, it’s nothing but HOT HOT HOT!! ❤️‍🔥

Expect lots of violence, cussing and SEX!!

So freaking good!!

Loved it

Omg I couldn't stop reading. Enjoyed the stories of the Locke brothers. It was a nice escape and I really liked it.

Baby Locke- Insta attraction. Just one look and curiosity to get them together.
Middle Locke- Second Chance Crush and protection to get what was always meant to be.
Oldest Locke- Hard Work and patience finally got his girl. It just so happens they are alike. Fierce and Rough for each other.

I really enjoyed their stories and loved how I got to just escape in their world.

There is considerable violence and gore throughout this series but there is also love and plenty of very sexy times. The three brothers had an extremely painful childhood and learned their violent ways honestly. They are good men, who do bad things for good reasons. Even though they feel like outcasts from society, they find women who are not afraid (or learn not to be afraid) of their violent ways.

Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott's duet narration has brought almost tangible life to all three of the stories in this series. Absolute chef's kiss.

Grabbed the box set through KU as it sounded interesting.
DNF. Couldn’t get past chapter 7 in book one when the idiot heroine seems surprised when she is attacked whilst running late at night. Does she not believe someone has not clocked her routine. TSTL.
Wasn’t keen on the hero being a psychotic chain smoking 21 year old. As much as I wanted to know why the brothers were like they were this box set is not for me.

Review based on the audio version.
This series is dark and dirty. The Locke Brothers do things we all sometimes want to and do it without apology. Great writing and stunning narration from Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott bring three tales of good men who do bad things for all the right reason. And how they find love with unexpected women. A great listening experience. Enjoy!

AWFUL!!!!!! Zero character building, they say the stupid cheesy shit that no one would say, all brothers say fu*k every other sentence and they seem like the biggest tools of all time! The way they talk about there sexual conquests to each other and to the girls is gross and not hot! And on top of that, they all smoke which is extremely unattractive! WORST BOOK SERIES I HAVE EVER READ!

Locke Brothers Series (Books 1-3) was a great series by Victoria Ashley and Jenika Snow. This series consisted of; Damaged Locke, Savage Locke and Twisted Locke. It follows brother's; Aston, Sterling and Ace finding the loves of their lives. They find this love even though they are the most sadistic and savage men in their hometown. I loved listening to these books by the authors.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!🎉

This was an amazing series! Not too long either. Just right. I don’t want to give too much away but if you like a little twisted but not over-the-top and Alpha men then you’ll love this! All 3 couples were a well written story that tie together in a perfect for them family dynamic. You definitely want this in your library!

Twisted and sexy

Nothing better than 3 hot, wild, and dangerous brothers who are willing to protect. This series about the Locke brothers was awesome. I loved everything about them. And the women they fell for were just as bad ass as them. Great job Victoria and Jenika. I want more books like these.

These books were good quick reads, but I wish they had been longer with more relationship and character development. There were just too much left unanswered and issues wrapped up just way too quickly. In book 2, the h basically says she knows her dad killed her mom and just uses it as a threat?! That honestly was enough to remove a third star in the rating.

Wow these brothers are something else! Each story had me on the edge. I loved each one but may have been a bit partial to Ace although Uncle needs his own story... just saying! Worth the one click!!!

A great series

This is a great, quick read of a hot series that you have come to expect if you’ve read Jenika Snow in the past. This story is about three men who grew up abused, so it might be a trigger for some readers. HEA is of course, guaranteed.

Wow

Read and listened to this as a box set. Each character scary within them selves, but each character had a love just waiting for their girl to unleash it on. Add in a strong sense of family and these three books were awesome.
Narration was awesome too.

Wow!

This was an amazing series. Aston, Sterling, and Ace were just wonderful. Dark, brooding, intimidating... But you knew once they fell, they were all in. Watching this dark heroes fall in love was awesome. I highly recommend this if you love dark romance.

These books were very difficult to finish. The stories felt very immature.

I listened to the audible narration.

It was awful.

Need a story from this author like Royal Savage. That book rocked!!

I stopped reading these books. It was pretty much all cussing & porn with a little bit of a story. I was disappointed.
