Telling my boss my BIGGEST secret was just one of many mistakes…
#1 I revealed that I was still a…you know what.
#2 I also confessed I’d never experience the big O.
#3 I don’t even have to spell it out do I?

Look, I NEVER expected him to make it his mission to help a girl out,
But I can’t say I haven’t fantasized about it.
Even when I want to slap his arrogant face,
I wouldn’t mind tearing his suit off in the process.

As much as I want to let him take me in every way imaginable,
My mission to find the big O,
Quickly turns into Oh shit!

Falling for him wasn’t part of the plan…or the agreement.
Will I always just be another conquest for my billionaire boss?
Or can I fall out of his bed and into his heart?

Ella was a snotty brat, I couldn't stand her and her snarky attitude. One of my biggest pet peeves in a heroine is saying one thing but her inner monologue is completely different. The story had potential but Ella ruined it for me. I'm hoping the other brothers get better leading ladies.
Oh yea, the book I read the brothers were named Tyrell, Jasper and Cash Gentry and it centered around Tyrell and Ella.

The Shadows of the Past that Threaten to Obscure Love and Happiness in the Present

Brandon Gentry and his brothers, Clayton and Dyllan, have always been able to claim the support of a loving family. And now as adults, they are beginning to appreciate how truly amazing the happy, normal home created by their mom and dad, is. While the boys had grown up in a simple 2-bedroom home with limited financial resources—all that their high school educated dad, as a laborer, could provide—they had always known unlimited love and affirmation.

But now, the brothers have just been informed that they—not their parents—are billionaires, the heirs of their grandfather—a hard man who had rejected his only child—their father—because the son had had the audacity to reject his father’s edict and had married his high school sweetheart, who was employed as a maid in his home, and therefore, deemed socially unacceptable. And the brothers learn that this grandfather, similarly the son of rich and powerful Texas rancher, had also loved a local girl. But to retain his position of wealth and power, he had yielded to his family’s expectations to marry an acceptable woman of appropriate wealth and social status. So, he had chosen to live a lie, keeping his true love bound to him in a known but unacknowledged, submissive relationship while maintaining a public marriage with a “socially acceptable” woman who bore him one child—the ultimately disobedient and disinherited son.

So, to claim their inheritance, the brothers had to agree to never offer any financial support to their parents, and they must run the ranching enterprise of race horses and cattle. They will continue to employ the Finley family, who have served his grandfather’s needs over the years and will continue to work and live on the estate, keeping the house, grounds and ranch maintained.

And it seems that the generational legacy of finding love among the staff is about to be repeated as the eldest grandson, Brandon, is inexplicably drawn to the youngest daughter of the Finley family. The beautiful and petite, dark haired, blue eyed youngest Finley, Ella Jean, catches Brandon’s attention and his heart when he catches her as she totters on her wobbly ladder where she perched to clean the chandelier.

Brandon’s attempts to woo and win the heart of sweet, innocent 21-year-old Ella not only peels back his family’s ugly past, but it also requires that Ella’s past hurts, which have frozen her emotional and physical transition from child to adult, be confronted and healed. If Ella is to be freed to move into the adult world of a physical and emotional relationship, she must come to understand and accept her past and to trust that Brandon will protect her, not leave her.

Scarlett King tells a sweet and passionate story of a young girl becoming a woman with the loving attention and protection of a strong caring man in the story of Brandon Gentry, the first installment of the Irresistible Brothers series. The tale of an innocent’s introduction to the world of love and sex is told with care and sensitivity that leaves a smile on the reader’s face.

Throughly enjoyable read.
Well let’s us introduce to you The Gentry brothers Brandon Clayton and Dyllan who just found out that they have inherited their grandfathers wealth which consists of a estate that includes Whisper Ranch and thirty thousand square- foot mansion in Carthage just out of Dallas.
When they get to the ranch and walk though the back of the house Ella was up the ladders cleaning the chandelier when she heard them and fell off but was caught by Brandon.
Ella is twenty one and the youngest daughter to the Finley family and also the maid.When Brandon catches her before she lands on the floor there is chemistry straight away even though they don’t know each other.

Ella is a loner and she likes to talk back to people but she has a lot of baggage with her and she does have any friends so when Brandon tries to talk to her she is defensive and has a answer for everything.But he makes her feel thing that she has never felt before but it still doesn’t stop Brandon from pursuing her and trying to be her friend and more.

I love how brandon is a gentleman though out the book and he has patience and he his willing to find out what has made Ella the way she is and tries to help her.
Ella has been sheltered and protected by her family by something that happened when she was child and now that the gentry brothers are here things start to change and secrets also come out of the woodwork.

I don’t want to spoil the rest of the book you have to read it to find out.
Well written beautiful enjoyable and entertaining read the characters were great though out the book and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
I recommend reading this book

I received a free ARC copy in exchange for a honest review.

Brandon Gentry is the oldest of three brothers. Make Her Mine is the first book in the Irresistible Brothers series. He and his brothers inherit a sprawling ranch and billions of dollars. On the ranch, Brandon meets Ella, a young maid on the ranch. Ella is young, sheltered and naive. She doesn't believe in friendship or love. Brandon is instantly attracted to Ella but will the fact that she works for him keep them apart?

Brandon is very sweet in his pursuit of Ella, never pressuring her for more than she's ready for. Having experience a tragedy when she was younger, Ella is treated with kit gloves by her family. They make sure she doesn't get exposed anything that might give her troubles by sheltering her.

I had a hard time relating to Ella as she was definitely immature in many ways. Her reactions to situations was offputting rather than endearing. Brandon however was head over heels. Love was new to him too and he struggled with his emotions but ultimately guided their relationship in the right way. The bickering between the couple is almost like banter as you can see the emotions behind it.

All of the brothers are there for each other. They tease each other mercilessly but it is just that, teasing. Coming from two parents who love each other has shaped them to be upstanding guys. Unfortunately the older generations of the family can't say the same.

Looks like in this series, each book will focus on a different brother. I can't wait to read their stories. This book did end sweetly with a happily ever after.

This is the first book of this series which centers around three brothers coming into an inheritance from their grandfather that they had no idea about. This is Tyrell and Ella's story.

Ella is a maid for the Gentry family and works for them along with her mother and father. I tried to like her, but I just could not as much as I tried to. I thought she was bratty and very immature and the constant reference to her immaturity did not help her case at all. The reason she was that way was not reasonable or believable either. Her family constantly protected her and shielded her from reality her entire life, but then called her immature at the same time.

Tyrell Gentry is the eldest of the grandsons. They come to the estate/ranch to live after they find out about all they have inherited. He doesn't come from money, but seems to acclimate to his newfound status pretty easily. His parent's past made this scenario of the three sons really hard to believe. Also, he immediately he falls for Ella and chases her the entire book.

This story did not have a lot of substance for me. I liked Tyrell (also referred to as Brandon one time as well?), but his ability to apparently see something in Ella was overshadowed by her behavior. Ella, I am sorry to say was not for me. This story ends cleanly with a happy ending, but overall just was not for me. ⭐⭐

Brandon, 27, unexpectedly inherited his grandfather’s large ranch and billions with his 2 brothers but they can’t give any of the money to their parents. They were raised without much money and they are now billionaire’s. Ella, 21, is a housekeeper at the ranch who lost a close friend when she was 5 and now she doesn’t let anyone get close to her. She is feisty and sassy but immature and a loner because her family babies her to protect her from being hurt again. Brandon is attracted to her but knows he shouldn’t because he is an employee but he wants to help her feel like an adult. Ella is also attracted to him but knows she has to grow up more first. Will Ella learn to let people get close to her? Will Brandon and Ella be able to find happiness together?

I give this story 4.5 stars. The author did a great job explaining how the traumatic loss of her friend changed Ella’s life but she was now ready to let try to get past that and get close to someone again. Brandon also had a major change in his life and has to adjust to a new life and new responsibilities. I enjoyed the story and loved the epilogue.

rags to riches

Brandon and his brothers inherit their grandfathers Whisper Ranch and everything else.
They have no idea what they are walking into.
None of them can comprehend the amount that is staring them in the face.
They had no idea because the parents were both estranged from their parents and never spoke about them.
Brandon is the oldest and as soon as he catches Ella in his arms the first time he is smitten.
Ella is quite outspoken and thinks all rich people are snobs and they look down on the "help"
With Ellas help Brandon find out more and more about his grandparents.
What went wrong to quit having any relationship between his parents and theirs.
After all the dust bunnies settle and Ella and Brandon really sit down and talk things out, they realize that they love each other.
This is the first book I have read from this author and I can not wait to read some more.

Brandon and his brother inherit their grandfather's place Whisper Ranch. The place holds secrets about their family and the brothers want to know what their parents wouldn't tell them. So they start exploring and asking the people there questions. Ella's family works for Brandon's family and has for years. When the brothers arrive Brandon catches Ella as she falls from a ladder and sparks fly between them as the banter between themselves. Brandon asks Ella for help understanding what his parents went through and she helps him learn what she can. Will this lead to yet another forbidden relationship at Whisper Ranch? Will Brandon find more at the ranch than he counted on?

This is a great story once I started it I couldn't put it down. The chemistry between them is off the charts hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

What an absolute mess of a book.
Ella - immature brat who is unlikeable in every way.
Tyrell - not an accurate portrayal of a male in the slightest. His internal monologue is worse than a wet blanket of a female and he’s supposed to be a hot blooded male. Not saying all men think the same but I was not convinced of his character in the slightest.

The story flits along too quickly in parts but with nothing really happening. I couldn’t keep reading this drivel. I got to the part where Ella has gone to her aunts suddenly… like literally 5 mins after deciding she needs to go away for a month to go on the pill and she is gone??? I’m sorry but that is completely unbelievable.

The only character that had some substance was Darlene for calling a spade a spade. Ella an immature child who isn’t ready for sex.

I didn’t receive this book as part of some scheme either. I chose to read it and I wish I never had.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book. This is the first book in the Irresistible Brothers series.
Brandon and his brother's have just inherited Whisper Ranch estate. They never knew their grandparents and had always lived a simple life. Now they have more money and land than they know what to do with. If they decide to keep it.
Ella is a maid at the ranch. She has been sheltered her whole life. She's never even been on a date let alone hold a guy's hand. So she has no idea how to act when Brandon is suddenly always rescuing her.
Overall I enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next in the series. The only thing that kept me from 5 stars was I couldn't get over how immature Ella was. She acted 16 not 21. Other than that. Get read!

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
For a first read by this author....very impressed. No spoilers
When Brandon, Clayton and Dyllan Gentry inherit millions from their grandfather, their lives are going to change big time. Now owning Whisper ranch, Brandon meets Ella, the daughter of the ranch foreman. She is an innocent and he is so protective of her.
Good to read briefly, about the other brothers Clayton and Dyllan and the girls they briefly know. A good love story wishing the background of how the boys got their inheritance and how it will change their lives. Roll on book 2

Brandon and his brothers get a surprise inheritance of money and the Whisper Ranch as well as everything that comes along with it. But how do you learn to ranch quickly? Will the staff help them? Can they make this work? What happens when Ella, a maid, makes a connection with Brandon and changes everything for him and her. Can they be happy or will life and status get in the way?

Ella works at the ranch and has ideas about all rich people and can't seem to keep her ideas to herself, what happens when she can't get Brandon out of her mind and out of her heart? Can he really be this nice to her?

I can't wait for more from this author!! I received an ARC of this book from the author.

Brandon and his brothers moved into his inherited grandparents home. There are many secrets his mom and dad have hidden. While he and his brothers are dealing with a new found business and secrets he finds Ella. Ella is completely inexperienced in many ways. A traumatic incident when she was younger caused her to keep people at arm's length. Brandon is not easily detoured. While Ella's fear is at the forefront and finds every excuse to pull away. Brandon is ready to break her wall of fear and love her the way she deserves.

I must admit I can't decide about this book. Brandon just became a billionaire because of his grandfather's death. And while Ella did work at the house, I never really felt it was a boss romance.
Brandon seems somewhat mature but Ella is definitely not.
Ella is the youngest and her family does shelter her and she is very introverted when it comes to being with others but she has a "smart mouth."
I liked the story flow but I just didn't feel connected to either character.
I'll definitely read the next book in this series.

Really enjoyed this book. Brandon and his 3 brothers inherit a ranch and billions of dollars from a grandfather that they knew nothing about. Ella is a maid at the ranch that yearns to get out and make something of herself. She literally falls into Brandon’s arms and that is the beginning of their story. She does not want to fall into the trap of sleeping with her boss and he can’t get her out of his mind. This story follows them trying to figure out what to do with each other and how to get to their happily ever after!

Not what I expected

I found Tyrell and Ella's story interesting at first. But, the more I read the harder it was to continue. Ella was unbelievably shy and backward. Jumped to conclusions like a twelve year old rather than the twenty-one year old she was supposed to be. Tyrell was either the most patient man on the planet, or the biggest sucker ever known, with the way he put up with Ella's Jekyll and Hyde personality. I would classify Make Her Mine as more a coming of age read than a billionaire boss romance.
Just my impression of it.

What an unbelievably complicated love story, I was taken by Ella, she is something else, a confuse girl that discovers life and everything that goes with it. I felt in love with Brandon for his kindness, he is my favourite book boyfriend, we discovered the story of 2 families. That will with your heart. I laughed , I cried, their journey to be together has its bumps but It will make you smile.

An enjoyable start to a new series!

A sweet start to a new series. I enjoyed the slow burn romance between Brandon and Ella. She was innocent but confused which made her character less likable but her character blossomed towards the end when the storyline started heating up. Brandon was definitely swoon worthy with his gentle ways and liked that he proved his worth. I can’t wait for more of the Gentry brothers.

Brendan and his brothers inherited a ranch and a lot of money from their grandparents that they never knew. Along with the land they also inherited the staff, and Ella is a maid at the ranch and she has led a very sheltered life and Brendan is always helping her out of trouble. This is a slow buildup kind of story, steamy, entertaining in every way possible. Loved the characters and the story. I volunteered to review this arc.

This is a very fun book to read. Ella is sassy, bold and has a mind of her own and totally manages to confuse the heck out of Brandon. Brandon is down-to-earth, patient and oh so romantic. With the two of them, the chemistry explodes white hot and produces quite a bit of steaminess. The story line is cute, and this was a very enjoyable read!

Irresistible Brothers 1

Make Her Mine: A Secret Baby Romance by Scarlett King and Michelle Love

Ella and Brandon had a reaction to each other the first time they met. The three brothers inherited a ranch from their grandfather they never met. Ella works on the ranch with her family. Brandon can’t stop thinking about Ella and their relationship progresses, because Ella can’t stop thinking about Brandon love wins out in the end. Great read and a must have book.

I got a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
So I can honestly say I liked it.
The story is warm and likeable. The hero and his brothers are normal, down to earth people who deal with reality pretty good.
Now, I'm moving on to the next books of the series (also courtesy of the author) and I trust them to be as good as this one.

3 1/2 ⭐️
I was really intrigued by the blurb and the first chapter of this story. I was waiting for Ella to stop acting like a child but unfortunately that really never happened. It was quite frustrating with her tantrums, constant running away and not finding out what really was going on. Brandon showed way more patience than I can understand.
