Mountain Cure

Stone Brothers #2

by Bethany Jadin

Addie found the cure for her wounded heart in the place she least expected—in the arms of three passionate, dominant men. As spark fly, they discover more than just the heat of desire—a connection so deep it shakes them all. They've lit a fire none of them expected, but Addie's vacation is almost over. Will the embers cool and die, or will their unconventional romance grow into a lasting inferno?

The Stone Brothers is a sizzling reverse harem series featuring a sweet and fiery romance with intense chemistry, devilishly-handsome men with dirty mouths, firm hands, and hard, unprotected wood, enough steam to melt the snow right off the mountains, and a heart-tugging, emotional rollercoaster of a storyline.

Mountain Cure is book two of this reverse harem romance series.

I loved this duet, it was quite drama-free, sweet and hot. Perfect for a chilly day at home

[Sarah Anne · Rating 3 out of 5]

Love that Jadin decided to address the realities of an RH romance in the "real world." The guys and Addie being truthful about their relationship added another dimensionality to their narration.

However, I found it difficult to connect with Addie's narrative. It felt like there were almost too many scenes that didn't carry the plot along.

Safety Rating: Safe
• No cheating
• No OW drama
• Does have OM drama
- The Heroine's ex-boyfriend (who cheated on her) causes some problems
• No pushing away
• No separation


Possible Triggers:
• Allusions to a tumultuous relationship between the Heroes and their father
• No OTT sad parts


Ending: HEA

I loved everything about this book and I am hoping and praying and crossing my fingers that the awesome duo will continue to write more from this world/series. I feel like I could read another 10 books about Addie, Colt, Wes, Remi, and Daisy!! I am so invested in thier lives and business, I want to know what happens for them in the future. Bethany Jadin did it again and sucked me into this story and I have had as book hangover ever since ❤️😭😊

In this book, we get to see the relationship between Addie and the brothers continue to blossom, see Addie get to gain a friend and have some girl time, see her confront people from her past, and really see the Stone Brothers let their walls down and stick up for what they want as well as protecting their girl. I loved seeing the tender moments with them especially with Christmas and the surprises each had for one another. I like how they could be super sweet and tender one moment, then switch to incredibly hot, steamy, dominating in only a couple seconds. I loved all 3 brothers evenly (I think Remi as the big bossy/grumpy teddy bear might still win out, but is a super narrow margin hahaha). I think the authors did an amazing job channeling the mountain men perfectly, it was totally believable and I am dying to get this in audiobook. The guy narrator(s) would melt panties with how amazing some of these lines/scenes are haha (I definitely couldn’t listen to it at work - I will be the first to buy it if we are lucky enough to get it an audio version)!! I mean there is a shower scene and blindfold scene that definitely would definitely require a cold shower afterwards 😂😂😂.

I highly, highly recommend this series. It wasn’t over the top with cheesy moments, was really well written, and had great details and nuances thrown in that set it apart from other holiday stories I have read, especially in the RH industry. I am going to wait this in paperback as well, I loved it so much. I hope we get to learn more about the other Stone sibling and maybe get to see the 4 in the future with their business and relationship booming (I mean along with their realistic struggles. Amazing job, can’t wait for more from this author tandem 😍

Addie and the Stone Brothers return to the cabin to be greeted by a police car ruining all of the delicious ideas they had planned. It's only a brief deterrent and they are still able to enjoy an evening bonfire with friends, an incredible night up in the suite, and a fun-filled breakfast but it does foreshadow the approaching return to real life. As Addie and the brothers spend more time together, feelings deepen. It may be quick but this is no longer a steamy snow-in. Addie's on vacation. What happens next? Can their relationship survive? Do they even want it to? And where, the city, the mountain? Reality is creeping up on them. Conversations are needed, emotions must be faced, pasts need to be revealed.

I fell in love with these characters in book one. I fell even harder this time around. This book is just more. More sexy scenes (That night in the suite is seriously steamy!). More in-depth emotions as they fall in love and acknowledge it but also as they confront their past to be able to embrace their future. More friendship. Tank and Natalie are a wonderful addition to the cast. I know they were mentioned before but we got to know them better. Natalie and Addie hitting it off pleased me so much. I love a good girlfriend. More town. This little spot in the mountains seems so real. The town, the nature, the beauty of both are captured nicely. More Addie. She really found herself in this book as she found love and her forever home.

I know the title says Duet. I hope this is changed to series soon. There's so much more story here; with Ann, the Elliots, Jason, the business but especially with Addie and the brothers. Please!

It’s so sweet...

My teeth hurt. Addie and the brothers Stone are back in book two of the ‘Brothers Stone Duet’. You thought you swooned over Wes, Remi and Colt in book 1, we’ll prepare to hit the floor folks because this book not only ups the ante in steam, but the feels are off the charts.

Addie is finally introduced to the Stone brothers biggest shame in this book, their not so dear old dad. A dark childhood and broken home is the source of pain and embarrassment for the the boys, but if anyone can get them through, it’s Addie. But she has her own issues to deal with; what happens when the vacation is over? Are the feelings that she has real, and are the reciprocated?

As she falls a little more for the Stone boys every day, she also falls in love with the town and the people. The ghosts of Christmas past comes back to haunt all four of them, and they’ll need a Miracle for things to work in their favor. I loved the mix of playfulness, erotic scenes (that warning in the beginning is seriously no joke), a smudge of mystery and heartbreak and so much love. And a dog. And cabin on the woods with 3 hot mountain men that adore their girl.

[Ren || Reading What I Want · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ahhhhh, seriously LOVED this duet. It was light and fluffy, but also sweet and funny. The plot wasn't extra exciting or detailed but it was absolutely perfect for a feel-good, sexy RH romance.

I loved Addie, Wes, Colt, and Remi. The guys were just awesome. Addie was as well. I loved how they each questioned what they were doing and considered the others. I loved how they were honest and willing to communicate. Their love was shown through actions and thoughts. SO many cute/funny moments had me swooning.

And lawd. That blindfolded scene???? 🥵 Hot AF, y'all. These guys were some of the dirtiest talking alphas and Addie (and I) loved it.

I liked the few side characters and the bit of angst that was added in. The ending felt a bit abrupt, more of a HFN, but I can't complain. I was looking for an easy, sweet, sexy RH and I definitely found it with this duet. I can see this one on my shelf.

Overall: 4.5 / 5

Mountain Cure is the second book in the Stone Brothers Duet by author Bethany Jadin.  This is not a standalone romance, and it must be read after Mountain Fever, the first book in the duet.  I have been counting the days for the second book to be released.  As soon as I saw it appear on my Kindle, I jumped right in and devoured the story!

Mountain Cure begins where we were left off in the first book.  Addie and the brothers were driving up to their cabin, and they saw an unexpected guest in their driveway.  We then begin to learn a little more about the brothers, and in my opinion, I fell in love with them a little more. If that’s even possible. Addie continues to be a very strong character, and I just love her strength.

The story was well written, and I read it in one sitting!  I just loved the ending and hope to see them in a future book.  I’m not quite ready to say goodbye to them yet.

A definite add to your TBR list!!

I really enjoyed this continuation of the Stone Brothers duo. This book was full of heat, love, laughter and emotions and I felt every single one of those feelings whilst reading. It's the kind of book that you read in one seating as you just can't put it down. It's the kind of book that you need to read whilst you're alone so you aren't interrupted and can feel all the emotions, also cos there are some scenes that are super hot and had me fanning myself whilst reading. I really enjoyed the first book of this duo, but loved this second part even more as I felt we really got to know all the characters. The ending has left me hoping that there may be scope for more books in these characters story (please author, don't stop writing about these characters). I loved it and Mountain Cure is a five star read for me, I just wish I could find myself stranded in a snowstorm with three hot men like the Stone Brothers!

[Margaux Espinosa · Rating 5 out of 5]

*FanningMyself* So incredibly sweet, romantic and sexy as hell. This was a fantastic and poignant, beautifully written story. I love the Stone brothers and Addy is an utterly fantastic and adorable character that is easy to relate to. This was the second book in a duet, so I’m assuming there won’t be any more about these heartwarming characters, and I’m unbelievably sad about that. I love the bickering, sibling rivalry, jokes, and games that the Bethany Jadin ladies encoded with these characters. The incredibly steamy moments definitely didn’t hurt in endearing me to this duet, but the beautiful story behind that was what really made this story worth reading. I give this one a high recommendation for anyone looking to read a sweet, romantic, funny, sexy, emotion evoking contemporary romance. Sorry that was a mouthful, but this duet has that and so much more!

*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.

The thrilling conclusion to the Stone Brothers Duet that you totally have to read if you read book one. Addie is till enjoying her vacation as well as her time with the brothers. The problem is their time is running short together and none of them really want it to end though none of them want to voice that out loud. They go from deciding to enjoy each minute to the fullest to totally plotting to keep each other from leaving. Amazing emotional growth for all of them as well. While this wraps up the brothers' story quite well I cannot help but hope we get the sisters at a later date. I totally loved the end even if it did make sad to have it over so I give it 5/5 stars.

[Raecharmed · Rating 5 out of 5]

Addie has been enjoying her time with the guys and trying not to let reality sink into it. However the times comes when all of them need to start thinking about things seriously. When the time comes for her to leave will they be able to continue their relationship? The bubble they have been living in has been amazing for them to get to know each other but is it all based on them being closed in together?

This is an amazing story that will captivate you from beginning to end. The chemistry between them all is off the charts hot. This story has it all to draw a reader into it steamy hot chemistry, drama and heartbreak. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend it to any book lover.

I voluntarily read and reviewed this book.

[Jakki Frances · Rating 5 out of 5]

The second in the Stone Brothers duet and it's even better than the first. Lots of hot steamy times spent with our alpha trio mountain men, but even better there's a great backstory for the guys where we get to know who they really are and why; and how it'll play out for Addie and her guys as her "holiday" progresses. LOTS of raw feels, with an emotional and dangerous encounter that will push them all to finally admit their hearts to themselves and each other.

I know it's a duet.......but I see so much more in store for my mountain men and their ravine falling lady; hopefully it'll become a series.

[Penny · Rating 4 out of 5]

I devoured this story, I was hooked from the beginning of Mountain Fever and all the way through Mountain Cure. I love Addie, Colt, Remi and Wes their story is packed with laughter, angst, dominant alpha men one sassy heroine and lots of hot AF steamyness.

Tonnes of emotion this time round, I loved seeing more of who they are and what they have been through growing up. The relationship develops more and had me feeling what they feel and are left me wanting them to get their HEA.

Ahhh this duet ended beautifully and just the way it should but I still want more, I absolutely adored these characters and hope that we get a book in the future to see what they are up to 😉

[Sydney · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can't believe I just read that in one sitting. It was so good I forgot I was reading at times, I couldn't even consider putting it down!

Where the first book showed everyone meeting and getting to know each other on the surface, this book gets into the nitty-gritty details of pasts and a genuine growing relationship. I cried. Actual tears. Tears of joy, sadness, rage, repeating in a mixture baked into the greatest cake I've read in so long. I lost that analogy half way through but I'm sure you get my point. Read this book.

[Bookbytch5 janet Gray · Rating 5 out of 5]

We pick back up Addie Colt, Remi, and Wes were Mountain Fever ends. OMG this story brings out more of the hurt they all went through.

In Mountain Cure we get a feel of who the Stone Brothers really are. What happened in their past and how they overcame that. Or did they? A lot of questions where answered but I still have more questions! Hopefully with a spin off series or short story will get those answers. I'm the type of reader who wants to know EVERYTHING! I loved their I don't give a F attitude of other people. If the Stone Brothers all love 1 girl, they will fight for her and protect her. I love that. Did I mention that this book has some really steamy scenes. Well it does and they are so fantastic.

Loved this duet. It's sweet and sexy with loveable characters. Action and drama too make it even better. Towards the end I wish we had another sexy scene especially at Dante's Peak. That would have been hot! Maybe a novella in the future. *hint hint*
Plus, a well deserved HEA.

[Tina · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very steamy read but was written nicely and not over the top or poorly done. Loved the book. Got to get more into the background of the guys and why they didnt like the Elliots. It was a sad background but it made them who they are now and they finally got their happy ending despite it. I liked the added drama of the cheating ex thrown in there with the guys to swoop in a save the day. Adding this hot and steamy love story to my TBR Again list.

[Michelle · Rating 5 out of 5]

Addie and the guys are back in book two of the Stone Brothers duet and Mountain Cure picks up where Mountain Fever left off. This is the kind of book that you need to set aside time to read because you are not going to stop reading until the last page. A well written steamy read with well developed characters and a storyline that held my attention from the first page until the last make this a must read. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

Mountain Cure

I love mountain man romances but Mountain Fever and Mountain Cure make a huge step up. I loved both books the romance the story behind the Stone brothers was just wonderful. You told it with so much laughter and sadness that I will remember these for a very long time. They are the first books of yours I have read but not the last. I have already started the Code series. Thanks for two great books.:-)

[Esmeralda Felan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Where can I find me a Stone Brother!! The second book in the duet was heartbreakingly beautiful. We learn more about Addie & the Stone brothers in this book and my heart still hurts with their story. They all have to deal with their pasts which is a necessity to be able to move on to their future. I’m so hoping that this is not actually the last we’ll here about these characters. There is so much more to the story. Love a good romance? Read this book!!!

[Jenny (jennyluvslitbooks) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mountain Cure is the second and final book in this series and continues where the story left off. I love how we get to know more of the guy's backstory and the continual growth in their relationship, not to mention the steam level of this one. Whew! As I'm sad to say goodbye to the characters, I'd say that I have thoroughly enjoyed it and wouldn't hesitate to revisit this world.

I received an ARC and I'm voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Perfect Duet

I fell in love with the Stone brothers in the first book, but man, I fell even harder this time around. This book is steamy, suspenseful, emotional and even relatable! Unfortunately not the shacking up with three hot brothers but the experiences and emotions really suck you in. Maybe one day I'll come back and read this duet with my own set of hot men and find that part relatable too. A girl can dream, right? ;)

[Emerald L. Scott · Rating 4 out of 5]

The heat is really turned up in this book! The great thing though is that the heat definitely doesn’t hinder the book. If anything it only makes the book even better. Most of the time when the book has a lot of heat, the author will neglect the true plot of the book. Trust me this is not the case here! Not only will you be able to connect with the characters and love how this book is written but you’ll appreciate the sexy times spread throughout.

[Cass · Rating 5 out of 5]

This steamy wrap-up to the Stone Brother's Duet is everything promised by these ahh-mazing authors! It offers up the feels like only Ms. Jadin can give us!! Addie, along with Colt, Remi and Wes plus Daisy bring us to our knees with the hard hitting tear jerking emotions. Add all that into a fantastic steamy read with laughter popping up everywhere and you should definitely pick this book up right now ❤️❤️❤️

[Hannah Brooker · Rating 5 out of 5]

Even better than the first

There was definitely a lot more to this book than the first but being greedy I definitely could have done with a 3rd. It would of been nice to read about how their relationship changed with the town. Also how their relationship proceeded and to see how all the changes came about with the cabin and workshop. The characters weren't deep but there's definitely something about the stone brothers that leave you wanting more.

Steamy Yet Sweet

This was a steamy book! I didn't want it to end. I'd happily read about Addie and her men doing mundane things. They are all lovely characters and show how a loving polyamorous relationship could work.

There were some extra hot scenes in this, but also a lot of love and respect. This book was a really sweet read full of positivity. If you like hunky mountain men and reverse harems, then this book is for you.
