This series has become a comfort read/listen, and Tremble was my favorite out of the six! I laugh so much.

Josh has a harsh childhood that he doesn’t share with his brothers. It takes Evan showing up and giving him extra love for Josh to open up completely both to Evan and his brothers. It’s clear that Josh has much to work through and Evan, even with his own issues, is just the person to help him. Once again this is a book where the main characters stick together when facing their demons and not breaking up like in most romcoms. Another comfort listen that will return to.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; Greg Boudreaux does a fantastic job, and I just love him bringing this series to life. It really does this series justice and I could listen to him all the time!

This is book is about the last Significant Brother finding his love. Josh owns and runs a dude ranch. Evan comes to the ranch to have his engagement photos taken and ends up breaking up with his New York partner and staying and finding love with Josh. Evan's sister Gina makes an awesome visit!! Books best read in order as the other brothers play a part in this story and also included an update on their stories too.

3.5-4 stars

i think this has a running spot for my favorite in the series so far.

I think that adding the helping hands of Kev and Adam really made this well rounded.

Also the fact that even though there was still that steamy factor i have gotten used to seeing in these books, this one it wasn't over done like the previous books.

I enjoyed seeing that Josh and Evan taking it "slow" and really getting to not make it seem like a rebound when it did seem that way at first and they acknowledged that.

Can't wait to see what the last novella has in store for these guys, and maybe i will take a look at Kev's book!

We FINALLY get Josh's story! The poor last brother to find happiness. Josh has tried to make it like he is just focusing on work, but seeing all of the brothers find love has left him wanting more in his life beside the Dude Ranch that he owns and runs.

Evan goes to Josh's ranch spend a week on vacation and to get engagement pictures taken with his "fiance". Said JERK treated Evan poorly right from the beginning, and fortunately he did not stick around long. Poor Evan was a little blindsided, but when he took a step back and looked at it all, he saw the signs that they weren't meant to be. Evan was suddenly stranded at the ranch with no job or home to return to.

Josh felt bad for Evan. He hated that he was treated the way he was and didn't want him alone. He offered him a place to stay and eventually work until he could get things situated. There was a definite attraction between the two, but they both decided that if they got involved it would be a short term rebound thing. Until, of course, they both fell head over heels for the other. There were things to work through (the rebound and feelings about the ex, how to work and live together, how soon is too soon to fall in love, etc), but they were worked out and written well.

I can't wait for the wedding. I love seeing all of the significant brothers and their significant others together. Another home run for E. Davies.

Edited to add:
I did a re-read of this by way of the audiobook, and it was just as great the second time around. I love the way that Greg Boudreaux gave these guys life in the whole series. Excellent edition.

This book was super sweet and everything I love about this series. Josh is the last of the Significant Brothers to find his true love but the wait was worth it as Even really is his perfect partner.

I loved how these two interacted, Josh is all protective and comforting, Evan is reluctant at first, having just been dumped by his dick of an ex-fiance while on their engagement photoshoot! But he can't hide his attraction to the rancher and slowly realises he can rely on him.

This is steamy but not overly so, there's some truly sweet moments as Evan takes up his role on the dude ranch and discovers he's not only found a new job but also a new love and a new family as the rest of the gang embrace him fully.

The whole series has just been a joy to read, no annoying angsty dramatics other than where things worked within the plots, each of the pairings unique but with a strong sense of brotherly love running throughout.

I shall be sad to see the end of these men!

The sixth book in the Significant Brothers series, Tremble is finally when Josh finds his happy ever after. All his other best friends have moved on happily with their lives, but Josh is left alone. Until his perfect match unexpectedly falls right in his lap. Evan is on a romantic vacation with his fiancé, but what was supposed to be a fairy tale moment in his life turns into a soap opera drama when his fiancé dumps him in a middle of the engagement photo shoot. Homeless, jobless, and alone, Evan is ready to drown his sorrows in all the alcohol he can drink. The last thing he expects is for the ranch owner to knock on his door to check on him, and then give him a job after Evan pukes all over his shoes. Evan and Josh have a little bit of forbidden romance going on. Josh is Evan’s boss and decides they can’t date because of that. This resolve does not last long, and soon Josh and Evan are swept up with each other while navigating some tricky issues that popped up on the ranch. It was wonderful to see Josh get his happy ending—Josh and Evan were absolutely perfect for each other.
