A great story
The characters were so great and the chemistry between the two main characters was scorching hot.
There are many twists and turns and lots of danger and intrigue.
The story is well written and very enjoyable.

What a job this author does with her hot alpha bad boys yum. I loved how well the characters are engaging and well developed with enough steamy chemistry that has me hooked from the beginning to the end. Storyline flowed smoothly.

Never Have I Ever Lusted after My Brother’s Fianceé’s Sister
Wrecked is Alexis Winter’s third installment (but able to be read alone) in the South Side Boys story. Maverick and his older brother Kalum are the owners of two successful garages, having been given a second chance at life after spending time in prison for their youthful involvement with a mob chop shop operation. Mav’s ability to circumvent the most sophisticated electronic car protection programs and the mechanical skills of Kal had made them valuable members of a car boosting enterprise. But now, all is good and legal, as the brothers settle into life on the right side of the law. Mav has even moved his residence out of the city and has settled into a large, picture-perfect house that even has a white picket fence and a mother-in-law suite. But the house is too big and empty—the lasting evidence of a love gone wrong and the fickleness of a heartless woman.
Scarlett Brennan is a single mom struggling to make ends meet. While her ex, Ryan, father of her 3-year-old son, Grant, floats in and out of their lives and prison, Scarlett does everything she can to provide a stable, safe and happy home for her son. She is currently juggling two jobs—certified nurse’s assistant and waitress—and is planning to return to college to complete her training to become a registered nurse—a profession that was postponed with her unexpected pregnancy with Grant, but will allow her to have more structured hours and better pay. And, she needs help to achieve that goal because she will need to give up her part-time waitressing job which will require cheaper housing. Her sister Tori and Mav’s brother Kal have the perfect solution– move in with Mav. To both Scarlett and Mav, the “perfect solution” has more warning signs than an expressway at rush hour, but it does make sense, and the chocolate cookies that Scarlett bakes seals the deal. But no plan is perfect, and this one begins to crack when Ryan, the ex-con ex shows up and wants to “play” Daddy to Grant and partner to Scarlett as Mav watches on, barely controlling his rage which is at war with his desire.
Alexis Winter continues her engaging story of friends who are family seeking their futures, but also discovering love. With strong characters facing the challenges of life, the story is well crafted and the characters complex. In the Epilogue of the novel, one of the children notes that some people think “that family is who’s related to you, but … that’s not always true. Sometimes family can be friends you love, who you want in your life every day.” That is certainly the on-going message in the South Side Boys series
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review ARCS, but I enjoyed the reading experience so much that I will use my Kindle Unlimited to enjoy this series in my “read-again” titles.
I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book and I really enjoyed it, this is book 3 in the South Side Boys series and can be read as a standalone story.
The storyline is fast-paced and well-written, there is plenty of drama and emotion that kept me entertained. I really loved Maverick, a wonderful deep hearted man that has been hurt in the past. Honestly, Scarlett was harder to like but I did understand her reasoning for her decision. Grant was an absolute delight.
Maverick and Scarlett’s story is an amazing to an already great series. The struggles that the two go through just keep you reading and wanting more.

Scarlett, a single mom, receives a letter that may hold her future in it. Once she knows what the letter intels she’s then placed on another path. However, with this new adventure as well as a rent increase she finds that her friends have helped her to move into Maverick’s mother in law suite. They have a great repport going until there’s a knock at the door and low and behold it’s Ryan, Grant’s father. He has been coming and going every since Grant was born. Will Ryan’s reappearance put a damper on what’s blossoming between Scarlett and Maverick. Will he stay or will he leave again. I love Maverick’s interactions with Grant and how he just loves him from the start. Scarlett I gotta say I respected her in past books but this one uugghh she really really got on my nerves. I can’t believe she’s all in one minute and then turns around and she’s pushing Maverick out of her life THEN she wants him back. I mean I was just disgusted with how she acted towards Maverick and he was amazing. He put up with way more than he should have. I mean I guess there are girls out there that act like Scarlett but that’s just down right wrong. I love their friends and family always good to have them around and then play ‘their’ game. Great Book!!

Steamy friends-to-lovers story with angst and beautiful moments
Scarlett Brennan, 23yo, single mom to Grant and sister to Tori from BROKEN (great book too!) has an envelope that she’s afraid to open b/c her future is in it, or so she thinks…
Scarlett’s friends help her in her new endeavor by setting her up to live in Maverick’s mother-in-law suite in his house in the suburbs. Grant’s father, Ryan always seems to pop up and give her a song-a-dance about turning over a new leaf. He’s back and wants to be the partner and father that Scarlett needs. Will Ryan’s reappearance change her feelings? Will this kill this new love between Scarlett and Maverick?
This was such a good book, but I must admit my irritation with Scarlett. One minute she’s all-in on their relationship and the next she’s pushing Maverick away. I guess there are women like that. Kudos to Maverick for hanging in there! He is undoubtedly the sweetest guy even though he had a past as a bad boy. The way he interacts with Grant is beautiful. And when Maverick finds Pinterest…so funny! It was a long time coming, with obstacles but they both got the HEA they deserved.
This was a well-written, fast-paced, angsty, sometimes funny romance and it comes highly recommended. I volunteered to review an ARC of this book through Booksprout.
Scarlett has had a very rough life when it comes to commitment from men.
She has the cutest little boy Grant who has a father that is definitely a douche bag and a POS.
Scarlett needs to start over in order to go to Nursing school but works 2 jobs to meet her bills and that will be harder since her rent is also going up.
Enter, her sister and friends……then Maverick enters the picture.
He is everything she has ever dreamed of but because all her other so called boyfriends have left when things got hot and heavy, she thinks Maverick will do the same thing because at first he didn’t want her living in his house.
This book is definitely a very good read with a HEA,

Oh Gosh. The relationship between Maverick and Scarlett developed so organically, that I was left crying at the end of it because it’s such a feel-good, emotional story for them. They’re both dealing with their own insecurities but they sneak up on each other in the best way possible. Lets not forget that Grant plays a big role here and I fell in love with Scarlett’s son from the first page. There are moments that Scarlett just had me about to climb the walls from frustration and her inability to see what she had in front of her. Even after she says she wouldn’t let Maverick go if he was hers, she has trouble doing that. But lets just say that Maverick is my favorite South Side boy now and I am sad to see the story of this trio end. I only hope Alexis Winter has more stories up her sleeve.
You won’t regret picking this up. It’s funny, sweet, hot as sin, and just downright perfect!

This book is one of the good ones. The storyline is engaging and held my interest from start to finish. The characters are fascinating, and the emotions are real.
The story has lots of angst, a bit of heat, wonderful character interaction, and ends with a ton of love. Just the way I like it. Alexis Winter is a good storyteller.
ONE TANTALIZING WHIRLWIND!!!
Crap on toast! Alexis stacks the layers, gathers the parcels and masters the passage, forging ahead, busting this baby wide open. Producing well rounded scenario’s, revving up the anticipation and adrenaline, with such intensity and precision, blazing this bad boy to life spectacularly. Bumbling through the trials and tribulations, along with thrilling twists and sleek turns, grounding in it’s strength and awe inspiring in it’s depth. Sparks fly as chemistry sizzles while drama, intrigue and suspense ensues in epic proportions. Add turmoil and distress and you have the recipe for one incredible ride. The personalities are well matched and balanced with enough flaws for diversity. The scenes are strikingly sharp with such colorful descriptions it gives you a full understanding and realism that flow smoothly. Awesome job Alexis, thanks for sharing this incredible jewel with us.
This is book 3 in the South Side Boys series and can be read as a stand-alone but I suggest you start from the very beginning since you will see all the characters in each book.
Scarlett has had it rough the last few years. She is a young, beautiful, determined, struggling single mother to one of the cutest little boys. When she gets a letter offering her to further her schooling it seems unreachable but when she is told there might be away for her to do it she can’t help get excited. Last thing she was expecting, especially after everything that’s happened to her, was to fall hard for her knight in shining armor. But can she finally take her walks down around her heart and open her eyes to see who is right in front of her??
These two drove me a tad crazy, yet for the most part I understood them and their hurt. I know what it’s like being hurt so badly by a person you loved and trusted and putting walls up around my heart that I never planed on taking down.
A fitting conclusion to this three book series. Maverick, as his name suggests, has always done things his way. He likes his solitary existence and doesn’t want to let any woman near him after a major betrayal. Scarlett is struggling as a single mom and hates the thought of needed anyone to help. What starts out as a great friendship and a need for assistance, quickly become a hot affair. These are wonderful characters especially her adorable son. Maverick has found what makes him happy and is willing to go all in.

EXCEPTIONAL, PHENOMENAL, AND FUNNY, this is the MUST-BUY romance of 2019!
WRECKED by Alexis Winter is another swoon-tastic tale about the South Side Boys that will knock your socks off and melt your Kindle! With a sensuousness that is off the charts, author Winter envelopes her readers into the romance which blossoms between Scarlett and Maverick, two characters readers have met in previous novels in this South Side Boys series. And without giving anything away, I have to say that the thing between Scarlett and Maverick has the makings of the ROMANCE. OF. THE. CENTURY! And that is no exaggeration! It will make you laugh, cry, swoon, and sigh all in the same chapter, and readers may also experience some aggravation, anger, and arousal while experiencing this wonderful novel. For WRECKED is an experience, sprinkled with just the right amount of angst, kissing, fighting and fun to keep a reader entertained and enraptured with a deep dive into the world of Maverick, Scarlett and their growing group of friends and relatives. I really love the other novels in this series, so I voluntarily read an early copy of WRECKED and this is my enthusiastic, VOLUNTARY, and honest 5+STAR review. WRECKED is one novel for which I would add more stars to its rating if that was possible! Understandably, WRECKED will be placed in the FAVORITES collection on my Kindle!
