I should have known Claudia was going to make me cry. She likes to keep me on my toes and so do the Aldridge brothers.

One billionaire isn't enough for this girl. Nope. I need six hotties who deny yheir feelings and abilities to love. I am a sucker for angsty, sexy, and sweet. So of course I fell for Beacon before I even knew...

And you will too!

One more Aldridge down. Two more to go. I really, really hope we get more in the future. I jhst can't seem to let go of these guys, their gorgeous better halves, and the family.

You'll see. I expect you'll be moving to Baker's Creek soon enough.

Did I mention its best friends to lovers? That they are soulmates and in denial...yeah, so there's that too.

Call You Mine is the fourth book in the Baker’s Creek Billionaire Brothers Series. With every book, this series gets more exciting. ⠀

This book, because of the two protagonists, is probably my favourite of the series so far. It’s a beautiful story about music, family, friendship and love. The author did a fantastic job. Beacon and Grace seemed to share a love and passion that was so pure and deep. Claudia Burgoa’s character building is so immensely good.

To be honest, I didn‘t like every aspect of this story. This book is different from all the others. But I was so surprised and enthralled by the plot that I didn‘t mind as much as I probably would‘ve. I just couldn’t put the book down.

If you’re a fan of the tropes, I cannot recommend this book and the series enough. It’s so much fun to see the characters evolve and to read more of this awesome world.

This book was so much more than I expected. The twists that it took from the previous books in the series will leave your mouth hanging open, but you won't want to put it down so you can find out what happens.

The relationship between Beacon and Grace is awe inspiring. Neither remember a time without the other but have been attributing their actions to being best friends forever and nothing more.

When things change, they must rely on every aspect of their friendship and knowledge of each other to get through it. As Beacon says to Grace "I'd be lost without you anchoring me"

This series is by far one of the best I've read in a long time and it just gets better with each book.

This was okay for me. The writing wasn't horrible, but I did feel like I was dropped into the middle of an ongoing story and I had missed a lot. So if you haven't read the previous 3 books, I would recommend doing that before diving into this one. Also, there is A LOT going on in this story. It's not the simple rom-com that I thought I was getting. The main thing for me, was that it felt like things were fast forwarded through. Like I get time passing, but it didn't feel smooth. It was like we jumped from one month to another with nothing being told to the reader about the time in between. Now for the good stuff. I did like Beacon and Grace together when they finally get there. I think their life long friendship helped with that. They made a believable couple for me. Although this wasn't a 5 star read for me, I would be willing to read her again.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.

Beacon and Sophia have been best friends since they were kids. They ever shared their first kiss but their friendship was way more important than anything else. Beacon was left by both his father and mother with his grandparents. He has felt unwanted his whole life but music and Sophia have sustained him. It helps that her family is huge and thinks of him as their own.
Now at 28 Sophia feels lost because every date she goes on is a complete disaster. The guys call her frigid or uptight. Shes even broken a few noses which her family finds completely hilarious. She on the other hand does not. When Beacon is forced to live in the small town of Bakers Creek, Sophia asks him to help her date to find out what is wrong with her. He agrees of course. What ensues is romantic, sweet and so sexy.
This book is like so many I've read by Claudia. Her words are poetic, the characters grab you immediately and you are left wanting more after it's over.

Call You Mine is the fourth book in The Baker’s Creek Billionaire Brothers series, but it can be read as a standalone.

Beacon Aldrigde and Grace Bradley have been best friends since they were children. They were each other’s firsts, but they decided not to ruin their friendship, so they chose to just be friends. Yet, Beacon continues to cockblock Grace from ever finding the one.

When Grace moves back to Baker’s Creek, Beacon agrees to help her date and not be so shy. But Beacon really just wants to show Grace that they belong together.

This was such a cute friends to lovers, second chance romance. Beacon’s love for Grace was obvious, and he did everything he could to show her she didn’t need to find someone else. There’s also a touch of mystery, suspense, and angst – everything I’ve come to expect from a Claudia Burgoa novel. I enjoyed it and look forward to the next book.

Narrators: Victoria Mei and Zachary Webber
Style: Dual

They both did a great job bringing this story to life.

Wow so I figured Beacon had secrets but I did not expect what was revealed and boy does he show he means business. While finding out more about this other life Beacon has we also see how his and Grace's lives have intertwined for so long, the fact her parents are from a previous book was also great! We learn more about the the brothers and significant others as well as their father which raises some eyebrows along with having a few laughs, tense times, some heartbreak and betrayal and let not forget some undeniable attraction between grace and Beacon. I am loving this series so much and already getting twitchy about it being over soon!

This was a fun story, full of surprises, snarky banter, friendships, family, and deadly secrets. 
Beacon’s life is already unique, but add in having to move to a small town and live there with his brothers for 18 months, things are going to get intense. 
I love Beacon & Graces’s friendship & chemistry.
