Love, Love, Love the Bradford Men

This is one of my favorite series. The Bradford men crack me up. I love Mathewson's writing style and pace of the stories. I can't imagine anyone except Fran Jules performing these stories. Fran Jules ROCKS the Bradford Family.

The family trait of the Bradford's, including uncles and cousins is their ravenous appetites and love of food. Their antics against each other cause them to be banned from restaurants, food delivery services and of course all-you-can-eat buffets.

They tend to fall in love with women who are the opposite of what they envision to be their perfect wife. They also tend to bicker with and aggravate these women. I love how the Bradford men will take a statement or argument with their girlfriend/neighbor and turn it around to benefit them.

There's also a lot of sex. The Bradford men are extremely persistent in getting their way in the bed.

I go to these books after listening to an emotional draining story or dark suspense thriller or if I'm in a book rut. These stories also take on real life issues like being overweight, being a foster child, various medical issues but everything always works out with a HEA.

These books are well worth the credit or dollars.

Great romantic comedy

Any additional comments?

Hilarious, surprising, and a small glimpse back to how the Bradford's ended up in America. It's interesting to see familial traits all the way back to the 1800's. Great read. Laugh out loud funny. Great plot, storyline, and character development.

Fun, comedic romance

I discovered this author last year and she has yet to let me down. Her writing ability is fresh and I love the story of the Bradford family. Most of the time the Bradford antics have me laughing out loud. This is an enjoyable love story of how the Bradfords came to. be. I bought it on sale it was well worth the $. While I listened to this particular story, I really do enjoy reading the light wit this author seems to bring alive with her stories.

AMAZING!

10+ stars! I haven’t read a historical romance in a little while, this was awesome. R L Matthewson does such a wonderful job of drawing you in! The way she incorporated the history of the Bradfords in this story was excellent! This series can’t be missed. Don’t even try to guess where things are going, for every one thing you figure out, there are five things you didn’t see coming. The tropes may begin as enemies to lovers, but that’s not all, there is always way more in store for you!
Fran Jules is awesome! I loved her in the previous neighbors from hell books, but this one sealed it, she is now my all-time favorite female narrator! Not only does she do an excellent job distinguishing each character, male and female, but she also does accents incredibly well. I couldn’t put this book down, and at 3:30 in the morning when I finally finished I couldn’t sleep! I can’t wait to go on with the series, but I don’t want it to end, ever!💖

Another hit

This series is a mix of hot hilarious and sweet. I love how the story is told. Passing stories down though the family is the sweetest thing. I simply loved everything about the book. Heart warming!

The most seductive neighbor!!!

Yes H/H's behaviors are childish but it seems real to me. Sometimes some people get the worse out of you. This is one of those books that leave you thinking at the end of it. In a way you are happy because the H/H ended up together of course, but in other sad because their life had to be so hard for two people growing up in luxury and with families so well off. Also stories that move forward decades always gives one a sense of melancholy to see it all gone and replaced by the new. Loved the love scenes especially the first one in the orangery. Loved this book.

Love it

I loved the different take on an old story. It was refreshing to read a story about 18th century England that was completely new and fresh. I will definitely read it again and again.
