Swink

By: Adriana Locke

Narrated by: Wen Ross, Kai Kennicott

USA Today Bestselling author Adriana Locke brings the heat with this romance between a silver-spoon southern princess and the blue-collar fighter that wins her heart.

I’m that guy.

Camilla Landry rustles against me, the silky fabric of her overpriced lingerie slipping along my bruised rib. The porcelain perfection of her skin is even more innocent against the colorful ink dotting my own.

It’s demure meets damaged, pampered meets punctured.

So, yeah, it’s obvious I’m that guy. Dominic Hughes. Her attempt at rebellion. Her bid to see what the other side of the tracks feel like. I’m okay with being used because, from where I’m sitting, the other side of the tracks have never looked so good.

Better Than I Hoped; But….

Loved this story! Many of the complaints of other reviewers I felt were solved when Dom meets Camilla’s father; It all made perfect sense to me!
MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT was with the FEMALE NARRATOR/NARRATION. Which is quite the conundrum because I quite liked her narration in the previous 4 books.
The SOUTHERN ACCENT she assigned to CAMILLA’S CHARACTER MADE HER SOUND DITZY AND WEAK; traits totally opposite of how think Camilla’s character was written to be. IMO she got stronger as the story progressed, which I thought the narration tempered.
My question is why the accent?? None of the other female characters in the previous 4 books were given an accent and they were all from Savannah (or there about) as well…

Dom and Cam 4.5⭐️

Dom and Camilla are such a great addition to the Landry family saga! Their dynamic is so different from the other couples and it brings the perfect balance to the series.

‘No one has ever made me feel so safe and so reckless at the same time.’

Despite Dom’s bravado there are so many little things he does to show Cam how much he cares for her. Their relationship is endearing and frustrating and super smoking hot.

There’s so much growth for them but also within their respective families as well. As always, Adriana Locke has given us a story filled with heart, shenanigans and a healthy dose of heat!

Classic Locke

Always have I enjoyed the Laundry Series by Adriana Locke but I especially enjoyed Swink. Camilla Landry is the sweetest and her dating a man, very sexy man, from the wrong side of town puts a whole new twist to the story. The Brothers always way to overprotective makes the story full of twists as I thought they would be even tougher to win over. I love all the mini stories of the family and the new addition of characters. You did it again Adriana!!! One last nite about the Narrators, Kai and Wen are incredible, I can listen to them day!!!

Another wonderful addition to a great series

Wow. I loved this book. This is a wonderful series and this was a great addition to this series. Adriana Locke again out did herself. Camilla (swink) and Dominic are so great together. I loved the story and the chemistry. The Landry's are great and to see each of them again is great. Cannot wait to get Sienna story.

In this edition Cam is with Don who is from the wrong side of the tracks and everyone thinks they don't belong to each other. But they do and they fight for each other.

Kai kennicott and Wenn Ross has done a great job. They made it so you don't to stop listening to this book.

Cam & Dom

Sweet story of two people from the opposite side of the tracks and the struggles they face trying to mesh together their different upbringing and social status, what first started as lust morphed into love. Acceptance is hard but needed to make it, and eventually they do..

Not the end of the Landry family series

On audible, the next book Says it should be “Sweet” but there is no book. After a little research, I figured out that Cams twin sister Siennas story, is in the Gibson boys series as “Crank”.

Cams story is really sweet, and romantic. It was a little to much like my marriage to my ex husband, but other than that I liked it enough to find her sisters story and then started on the Gibson boys. I’m a little obsessed with the dual narration. Love it!

Swink: Another Locke Hit

I love everything about the Landry series. All the characters are so well written. The dynamic between the siblings, the parents, the major male and female roles. It all intertwines so well. What really ties it all together in a big red bow are the voices of Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott. I love an interactive narrative.
This story between Cam and Dom - the good girl and the bad boy is so precious. I have only one negative remark. Camilla's character is so naive about why Dom didn't want her at his fighting match. I realize that there are actually some people who are raised very sheltered. However, Cam's character was a strong woman and she just didn't seem to be that clueless about most everything else in life. So it surprised me that she would act that way.
I'm looking forward to the next book in the series Sweet.

Adriana does it again.

Would you consider the audio edition of Swink to be better than the print version?

In this case I prefer the audio version. Kai's sweet southern charm flows freely and Wen's brooding DEEP voice is like honey.

Have you listened to any of Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Kai and Wen are always spectacular and this performance does not disappoint. They have such a range of different voices it is not difficult to differentiate between characters, and the way they play off of each other is nothing short of amazing.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Adriana's description of the big fight was quite detailed and heartfelt. I was able to see through Camilla's eyes and feel her heart breaking. A very well-done scene.

Any additional comments?

I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

will have to actually read...

make sure you do the sample of the narration, could not stand it. The story was a good one but it would be a much better to read it then to listen to these two.

great series

i love this series. I can't wait for the next one. real people with real problems
