*Review by Michelle
“He sticks his tongue in the side of his cheek. He’s such an insane mix of playful and sexy that I don’t know which to focus on. My cheeks ache from smiling, but my thighs burn from desire.”
Oh Peck!!! I’ve secretly been in love with his zany behind since he grabbed my heart in Crank and cleared my schedule to pour through his story. He holds my heart even tighter because now I have his whole story. Who is the lucky lady that makes the great Peck fall? Not telling, read it yourself. But oh my heart, the SWOONS!! The softer, the more vulnerable, the sweetest, the hottest side of maybe all the cousins, I dare say I melted right to my chair!! Who knew mud and a throw back song was such a game changer???? I’ll leave you to go find out what that means, because if you don’t click, you’re sorely missing out. You’re welcome to borrow Peck, but make sure you bring his adorable hotness right back when you’re finished!! Thank you to the moon to the author for providing a copy to review!!
“He tastes of warmth and wishes, of heat and happiness. There’s no rush, no urgency to his sweet kisses. It’s as if he has all the time in the world to commit this to memory.”
Step aside, Walker, Lance, and Machlan Gibson. Wesley Ward has snagged my heart. Who is this Wesley–sometimes called “Wes” by his…special someone…who shall remain nameless through this review!–I speak of? Well, he’s none other than Peck Ward, fellow lovers of the Gibson Boys series, and the one male character that many a reader and fan have been itching to get to know even better. There’s also been A LOT of strong feelings and debate regarding who Peck should end up with. Could it be the girl everyone loves to hate–Molly McCarter–or the feisty bartender at Crave–Navie (whose last name I don’t recall being mentioned)–or someone completely new? I’m not telling because, hello, I’m keeping this spoiler-free AND I don’t want Adriana Locke coming after me if I do!
Peck Ward is the guy who would give the shirt off his back if someone needed it and wouldn’t even think twice about doing so. That’s just the sort of person he is, and he makes no apologies for it nor does he have some sort of hidden agenda. He’s simply a good guy with a giving heart and a gentle soul. Oh, and he also happens to be one hell of a dancer once he hops atop the bar at Crave and shimmies and sways (and let’s not discount those pelvic thrusts either). He’s loyal to his family and cares deeply for his friends. Peck is, without a doubt, one of the best guys around, but happily-ever-after is something that may not be in the cards for him because he’s never been enough for anyone outside of his Nana to stay…to love…to come first and love beyond measure. Even if he’s found the perfect one for him–the one he’d want forever with–the question remains: will she think he’s perfect for her?
Le sigh. I absolutely, undoubtedly, resolutely ADORED every single thing about this book! Peck has always been this peripheral character who stood out for all the right reasons, piquing the curiosity of readers from the get-go. I already knew the guy deserved his own happy ending, but after details of his back story, particularly his childhood, came to light, the more clearly it became how much someone as good as him should be blessed with that special person to spend his life with. I had my guess as to who he’d be paired with, and well, I’m happy to say I was right. Wink, wink. Go read the book, people. Crazy receives five-plus stars. Vincent next, please? And I need more Nana!
I received an arc copy of this book on release day, howver it is also a Kindle Unlimited book so I also purchased the book thru KU and I decided to read the KU version of the story instead of the arc.
This book is the last in the series about the Gibson Boys. They all were pretty wonderful and I have enjoyed every story in the series. THis is the last book and featured favorite cousin Peck who has always been a bit cray and wild in this series but also this amazingly kinda and wonderful guy. His one quirk has always been his love for the town slut Molly and this book explores what that really means and why he felt that way.
The author tried to keep the names of the characters in this story very hush hush so I am not spoiling any of that. I will tell you this story introduced some new Gibson Boys and some of the supporting characters and I hope we can see them again in another series or that this series will be extended because I have loved every single story.
This was a wild, crazy and fun story. I really couldn’t help smiling and loving every minute of this story. I f you love fun and sweet stories then you will love this story as well. While this story can stand alone, you really should read the series in order so you really get to know all the characters and fall in love with this small town romance. They ALL are in this story and so if you don’t it can get very confusing.
Nana is fully featured in this story and I loved every scene she was in. In fact I felt she enhanced this story so much in that she understands love and life so well and her insights were so important to the characters in this story. This story was one the author spent a lot of time on and you can tell how much she loved these characters.
I’ve waited a long time for Peck’s story and Adriana Locke did not disappoint. Peck is kind, goofy, protective and full of love. We get a glimpse of his upbringing and a better understanding of his relationship with Nana in this book. We get to know Navie and Molly a little deeper. We get a glimpse into the lives of all the Gibson boys. We gets Peck’s story and Peck gets his HEA…It doesn’t get any better that that!
Peck (the male lead in Crazy) is a secondary character we’ve seen in the three previous Gibson boy books. What we knew of him was fairly superficial- he’s their cousin, a little goofy, a big flirt, and will fight for cheeseball. In Crazy, we get a chance to know the good guy behind the image.
Ms Locke did an amazing job of peeling back the layers of “fun” Peck to get to the real man. It was impossible not to fall a little bit in love with someone who is devoted to his family, has a tendency to put everyone else first, and finagles dinner from family and friends just so he doesn’t have to eat alone.
He’s not a perfect character, he has his baggage and flaws. In this case those things make him the perfect person for his love interest who has her own set of matching Samsonite to cart around.
I enjoyed getting to go on this Crazy ride with Peck and his lady love. For series followers, you will be glad to see a certain mystery resolved. This is also a good chance to catch up with the other Gibson boys and scene stealer, Nana. This is technically a stand alone, but there is enough crossover of characters in all of the books, that I would suggest reading one or two of the others first. We also get our first real glimpse of Peck’s brother and the lone Gibson girl, Blair, also makes an appearance. Does this mean we may see books for them in the future? I sure hope so!
AdrianaDidNot ComeToPlay!
I have waited over a year, along with a good portion of people for this story and let me tell you…it is one of the best reads of the year! Finally getting the full version of Peck will warm your heart and leave you with a permanent smile on your face.
He is EVERYTHING that you’ve seen of him in previous books and so much more. I love the idea of him and our MG (mystery girl). She is the perfect companion for him and they compliment one another so well. She’s smart and sassy, witty and lovable…just like him.
So much friendship and love are shared amongst all in this story. The romance is so endearing and the sexy times are well…just channel Alex Pettyfer dancing to a lively Ginuwine tune. It’s hot and sexy and all the deliciousness you could ever want.
So many noteworthy moments, but my favorite of all is this, “You don’t have to take the gas out of your tank to fill everyone else up. You’re allowed to keep some of your energy and spirit for yourself.”
So many inspiring and wise things are shared throughout this story. Whether you’re a fan of hers or not, this story is one you can’t allow yourself not to read. Peck, his lady, Nana and the Gibson Boys will grab onto your heart and refuse to let that sucker go!
I was dying for Peck’s book and Adriana Locke didn’t let me down. It is spot on PERFECTION!!! There is so much more to the happy go lucky, always joking around Peck Ward. He is sensitive and has some major abandonment issues. But man oh man when he falls for a girl, he is oh so incredibly swoony and he falls hard. If you’ve read the other books in the Gibson Boys series (if you haven’t you really should), it is believed that Peck is in love with Molly, the much hated Molly. There is quite the story that goes with Molly and honestly I really would love to get her whole story. But alas, his love is not her. It’s someone else, new to town, complete with her own set of issues due to not feeling worthy of love. I’m so happy they got their HEA!!
Gah!! I have been patiently…ok, maybe not so patiently…waiting for this book for what feels like forever! I am so excited to finally get Peck’s story! And of course, Adrianna did not disappoint!
Crazy is the 4th book in Adriana’s Gibson Boys Series. Technically, Peck is not a Gibson but he is related and one of the boys!! You can the series in any order, but make sure you read them all!!
I don’t want to be that person that gives it all away so I will keep this short!
Peck is a fun loving, down-to-earth kind of guy. He is very outgoing, a big flirt and the life of any party! He has come to terms with being the fun, single guy. Love just doesn’t seem to be in the cards for him until a sassy little thing puts in his place! Sparks fly so fast they are on fire (or at least the steaks )! Will they be able to keep that flame going or will they let it burn out?
So many laughs, tears and heartfelt moments! I love the entire Gibson crew but I have a soft spot for Peck! I am so glad he found his happily ever after!!
Omg y’all I dont even know where to start with this review….
I’m trying to find the right words but im failing so I’m just gonna give this a shot anyways!
What can I say other than Peck Freakin Ward had me swooning through the whole book!
It feels like I waited a lifetime for Peck’s story but it was so worth it!
It was everything I thought it would and more! And so was Peck!
My gah I didnt want it to end.
It was the perfect small town romance. Heck it was the perfect everything. I loved EVERY THING about this book!!!
I just finished this book at 7:36 p.m.
I got it at 3:00 p.m. today.
Let that sink in for a moment…
Peck Ward doesn’t do the whole “dating” thing. Ever. Never has, never does. He has eyes for one girl, and one girl only. He promised to watch out for her and love her until the day he died. And that’s what he does. But whenever he tries to hedge the idea of marrying her, she blanches and always keeps what they have alive and hot as a bonfire in the middle of summer. So why does a pair of little feet with grass-green painted toes confront him while he is under a truck and starts blasting him about how he treated her best friend?
Because the face attached to that beautiful body makes his heart race and he loves the way she asserts herself so easily without even trying. She is fabulous. She is a spitfire. She is absolutely the woman that has Peck thinking twice about love and moving forward with his life- settling down and making a home.
Who is she? Molly? Navie, the adorable fiery barhand that helps Machlan at “Crave?” Or is it someone new?
I won’t tell. You’ll have to read it for yourself.
This book is FABULOUS!! ^_^ <3
I am Crazy in love with Peck. And Dylan. But, mainly Peck. I was so excited for Peck’s story, and now that i have it engraved in my brain, I’m in love with him so much more than before!
Peck’s story is a beautiful, sweet and funny one. His golden heart and blue, blue eyes have won me over completely, I love how he is with his family, especially with his nan, and his cheeky little antics not only make me laugh but smile so wide! And DAMN! Who thought that Peck was sexy alpha overload? I didn’t, and I’m not disappointed at all.
This novel completely took over my life. Once I picked up the novel, it took me away to a world full of Peck, and I fell in love. Even more so than I was before. I was not expecting what I was getting with Peck, and it is worth the read. It was absolutely perfect and shows that when love comes your way, you can’ t ignore it. This book gives you hope that love will find its way to you and will call to the most hopeless of romantics.
There were so many moments in the novel that just completely swept me away. Some made me laugh and so many made me swoon. I have one or two favourite moments, and one being the ending. It was sooooo cute. Made me melt to the floor from the cuteness.
This author did such an incredible on this boom. It was funny. It was sweet. It was romantic. It has a lot of depth that will make you feel emotional when you read it. This book shows the true light of Peck, and love for him will always be unconditional and infinite.
This book deserves infinity stars. Peck’s story is my favourite out of all I have read of this author’s. It is truly incredible. Plus, his name suits him REALLY well. Highly recommended.
Omg omg omgggg Peck’s book is finally hereeeeeee! This wasssss sooo good! Gah. I can’t wait for people to read who stole his heart! It was so funny how they met. Totally something id do. Oh and old man Dave! Love him i love how he manages to pop up in each book even for like one scene. NANAAAAAAAA! by far my favorite character of this series and that says something cause i loveeeee my Gibson Boys. Im so excited i need Vincent to get a story! Pretty pretty pleaseeeeeeee! I’ll beg!
Spoiler free review here! if you have loved Peck in books 1-3 of the Gibson Series, then hold on to your panties ladies because you are going to more than love him now! This book is everything we as her readers have been waiting for, and about a thousand times more. You get more of his bar antics, more of Gran, and more of the other Gibson’s and their ladies. You fall head over heals multiple times at the mature nature Peck is, yes he’s a goofball, but inside hidden he’s the man of you dreams. The way he is with his love, ugh it’s almost too much! Go now, buy this book, read it, devour it and then turn around and read it again because you will always need Peck in your life
I received an ARC in return for my honest and spoiler free review!
Oh. My. Gosh.
This book! It is my favorite out of the Gibson Boys Series!
I absolutely loved going on this journey with Peck and his lady. I was extremely happy with the outcome and was on the edge of my seat, wanting to know what happens next. So good! Peck is amazing and his lady is the perfect match. Very well done, Adriana.
Crazy is live! A roommates-to-lovers romance from Adriana Locke!
I knew Pecks book would be worth every second of waiting and boy was it! With a heart as pure as his you can’t help but love the man! He’s caring, sweet and finds the best in everyone! He deserves a woman who is strong enough to hold him when he needs it, has a heart that matches his and will love him unconditionally! He finds that and more sooo much more!
I couldn’t picture a better way for Locke to write Pecks story! She nailed it in every way possible! You truly get a sense of who he is from the previous books but in his own you see just how pure of a soul he is; dirty yes but always there when you need him!
Five Sweet Stars!!
Gahhhh…I couldn’t wait for Pecks book and Boy was it worth the wait! Adriana Locke gave us EVERYTHING AND MORE with Pecks book.
I’m not going into much detail, other than saying
READ THIS BOOK! YOU ARE GOING TO FALL HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE WITH PECK WARD. HIS STORY IS TOUCHING AND EMOTIONAL!
IT IS A MUST READ BOOK!
Highly recommended!
Ladies, meet your new book HUSBAND. I give you- Peck Ward. the man we’ve all been going CRAZY for.
Ah, Peck!!! He made us all CRAZY, waiting on tenterhooks for his story, and then Amazon went CRAZY and decided to high-jack his release day!!! But, it was all worth it in the end. If you’re acquainted with Adriana and her Gibson boys stories, you’ll have come to love Peck already. If you haven’t, even if this is your first ever Adriana Locke book. YOU WILL FALL HEAD OVER HEELS WITH THIS GUY. I promise you.
Peck is so sweet and kind-hearted and when he met his girl? OH, my goodness. It was stars and fireworks and everything good. This fateful meeting led to one thing and one thing only. Peck got the Happy Ever After he’s been longing for. This book was The BEST ever. There aren’t enough stars in the sky for this book.
Loved it. Just freaking LOVED IT!!! I cried at the end, because it was over. No more Peck to read. He’ll pop up in future releases, no doubt, but it just won’t be the same.
