No one would ever expect what haunted him because he hid it so well….
As a former Navy SEAL sniper, Brick has faced his share of intense situations, but nothing could have prepared him for his latest assignment. The king of hookups, going undercover with a ring on his left finger may as well be a noose around his neck. If that’s not enough, he’s paired with a whirlwind of a woman who’s as … who’s as outspoken as she is curvy.
Fresh off the heels of a life-changing breakup, Londyn crashes at her sister’s house. To prevent knocking heads with her future brother-in-law, Mercy, she jumps at the opportunity to take the undercover job that has her “playing house” with the notorious playboy of the Shadows crew. His laid-back personality, coupled with stunning good looks, should make this a walk in the park. If they weren’t trying to catch a murderer.
Brick, however, is unprepared for the intimacy that comes with living as a married couple and soon the lines between real life and assignment begin to blur. But beneath his easygoing smile there’s a secret he hides from the world. One he’s not sure he’s willing to let it come to light.
Note: Brick is the sixth book of the Guts & Glory series, a six-book spin-off from my Dirty Angels MC series. While it’s recommended to read both series in order, each book can be read as a stand-alone. As with all my books, this has an HEA, no cliffhanger or cheating.

What a fantastic ending to an amazing series! I loved Brick and Londyn’s story! The humor and the banter between them was very entertaining! They were made for each other! They went undercover to catch a killer. As time goes by they grow closer together. Will they continue once the assignment is over or will they go back to the way they were? I loved this story! I’m sad to see the Guts and Glory series come to an end! The epilogue was amazing and the perfect ending to a fantastic series! I loved it! I can’t wait to start Jeanne’s next series!
jeanne is such a great writer. she gets you emotionally involved and it’s hard to know this is coming to an end. but it is such a great ending. can’t wait for more. warning is: you will get hooked!!! come join us! lol
Brick and Londyn were just amazing!! There story burned so hot and they had so much fun together as well. Brick was a master of using the playboy mask to cover what truly haunts him and Londyn loves love, or rather she did before her last relationship. They are thrown together for a mission and told its a hands off situation, well that just didn’t work out at all! This is our last ISS man to fall and wow did he ever fall hard! and OH MAN, Jeanne killed it with the ending! I swear I just about passed out for that happening, I never would have expected that! I loved this book, I loved this series and I’m sad to see it end but so happy that I can reread it at anytime to catch up with these men who stole my heart even while breaking it!
For a VERY long time, I knew that Ms. James could create a story that will pull me into it, even when I hadn’t seen that…And this thing happened while reading Brick.
I started, then suddenly I was n the middle, and then epilogue – not sure how it had happened, but I was just starting and then suddenly – there was THE END… WoW
Brick – I was not sure if I will like him (like with most of the guys), as I think I can call him as someone with the label of notorious playboy so I was not sure how much will he loveable he will be here, and I found that there is MUCH more into him, then there was at the first sight (like always).
Londyn – is a woman that is not someone that is to be messed with. She’s the sister of Rissa. And she’s KICKASS, I love that she was strong, even with her insecurities and being a BBW and I FRICKING loved it!
Be ready to jump into a GREAT story that will bring you into it like a tornado and won’t let go till the very end.
I will just add just this – be ready with tissues for the end as I was not prepared to read it in the tram! Just be warned!!
I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Brick! He’s the last book in this amazing series. As always Jeanne wrote a sexy and funny book that I couldn’t put down. Brick and Londyn are one of my favorite couples. I would definitely recommend this to someone looking for a great read.
I received this ARC in return for an honest review.
I think that Brick and Londyn have become my absolute favorite to date! Hot and steamy with a lot of laughs, I can’t wait for the next series to begin!
The story of Brick and Londyn is sooo good! Brick is former Navy seal and as with all the Shadows he has some issues. Londyn and Brick go on assignment togther. They are suppose to keep their hands to themselves but can they. This book will will have you laughing out loud. The end of the book is a total schocker.
Another great read from Jeanne St. James! She is always a must read
I wish I could give it more stars! I’m sad for this to be the end of the series but what an amazing book to end it with! As usual I wasn’t disappointed with Jeanne St. James. Brick & Londyn made me laugh, cry & swoon which in my opinion makes for a fantastic book!
The final book of the series features Brick, OMG Brick. This book gave me all the feels and dear sweet baby Jesus in the manger was it HOT!
Brick has always been a player. One and done, no time or reason for more.
Londyn wants a forever kind of love like her parents had but she keeps choosing the wrong men.
When a freak chance has her going undercover with the consummate playboy things are bound to get sticky!
This was the perfect ending to the series and the epilogue was perfect
Jeanne St James writes a helluva sexy book. I was glued to the pages and read it in one sitting. This is the conclusion of a series and I highly recommend reading the others but this can be a standalone. Brick is a typical JStJ alpha ex-military with a manwhore disposition. Londyn is the sister of a character in a prior novel. She’s tough, stands up for herself but desperately wants to find love. The two are thrown together for work reasons and sparks fly. I loved the chemistry between these two. And Brick isn’t nearly as hard-headed and stubborn as a lot of StJ heroes. Once he realizes that Londyn is it, he’s all in. The epilogue is bittersweet but the love story is nothing but steam and heart.
That was such an edge of your seat addition to the series and I loved every minute!!
Brick is such a mystery from previous stories and I admit wasn’t that excited for his story which always entails to be the best of all the instalments which was completely true in this case. I loved it!!!
Londyn is an absolute hoot and a half she is that much fun. To see her evolve through the story is magic.
As a couple they have such sexual chemistry!!
All up an amazing addition to the series and ending on a super SWEET note that made me ball my eyes out. Cannot wait for more from Jeanne St James and her incredible array of characters.
An amazing book. A must read! Brick and Londyn were a great match for each other. Can not wait for the next book in the new series! Keep them coming Jeanne St. James, Please!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this couple , book!
This has been a truly amazing journey with not only the Guts and Glory guys but the DAMC too! I’m so sad so see it end but what a WONDERFUL story and couple to end with. I love Brick and Londyn. They are so fun and sexy together. They appreciate and accept each other and make a great couple! (and you will be craving Brownies after this too. LOL) There was also an element of danger through this story too as they try to catch a sneaky killer.
and OMG, the epilogue! Holy cow–what an AWESOME gift to all her readers. When I realized what was happening, I literally screamed right there in my living room. YES!!! Loved it. One-click this incredible book!
These 2 very different people make have some fun. This book was amazing. A must read.
Brick and Lyndon was such an incredible read and a really terrific way to end this series. This book offers a delightfully entertaining blend of drama, humor, emotion and intense. I felt that these were characters that were easy to love and feel for. I loved that there was so much going on beneath the surface image that these two projected. This made them very complex and relatable. The attraction, chemistry and banter that is generated with every interaction was elemental, sizzling and witty. Of course as this is the final book in this series we are treated to one last look at other beloved characters from the series. I’m sad to say goodbye but satisfied with how it did and I’m looking forward to what comes next from this author.
What a phenomenal ending to an outstanding series. This is the last installment for Guts & Glory In The Shadows Series. If you haven’t read them all, do yourself a favor and start from the beginning. You’ll be so happy that you did.
The elusive Brick – he’s funny, cocky and great at swiping right. Not looking for more than one night with any woman.
Londyn – she’s a pain in the butt for Mercy, her brother in law. Londyn makes a grand entrance and turns everyone’s life upside down.
A great opportunity presents itself to get Londyn out of Mercy’s hair and Brick is the lucky one who gets this assignment.
From the very beginning you can feel the energy between these two. The sparks start flying with the first meeting and it never stops.
Their adventure leads to so many realizations.
You’re gonna laugh, cry, swoon and cheer out loud while reading this. There is no way to keep your composure. Pure brilliance!
Very sad to see this series end, but it couldn’t of had a more epic ending. I will be reading this entire series many times over.
As always, Jeanne St James shares with us a true masterpiece.
Brick oh boy he was a man of mystery and from past books I wondered what woman would tame him, the self proclaimed playboy and king of one night stands. When he has an undercover job to do and needs a female to play his wife. Londyn is chosen she just got out and f a breakup and is in the state of lost she is more then happy to do this job and to get away.
This story will make you laugh, cry and wonder will Brick get the nerve to become a one woman man.
I voluntarily received an arc of this story for my honest review.
The last of the series, these characters makes me think of Johnny Lee’s song “Looking for Love”. Brick and Londyn seem likes the most unlikely match that has been made so far in the series but WOW!
Brick who lives his day to day life in the eyes of others as a laid back, easy going guy who swipes right way too many times but inside has his demons from the decisions he has made during his time in the military. Londyn who is heartbroken because of another is really a strong and sassy woman who has a soft spot for those she considers her friends. When these two are thrown together to get a job done, will they or won’t they?
I believe these two together ranks right up there as one of my favorite Jeanne St. James couples. Fantastic ending to the series and honestly, I loved the book so much that I read it in one sitting.
Jeanne has done it again. The chemistry between Brick and Londyn will have you wishing for the same. There’s a whole Mr and Mrs Smith vibe that keeps the pages turning.
Another great read in the Guts & Glory series and I could not put it down. There is suspense, fear and doubt as well as determinations and sexual chemistry. Unique characters with intense connections working undercover, find love along the way. Loved Brick’s book, it is a must read.
