Swing

By: Adriana Locke

Narrated by: Kai Kennicott, Wen Ross

Length: 7 hrs and 32 mins

Publisher's Summary

Screw him and his perfect stats. Sinful smirk. Delicious body. Lincoln Landry probably even has game-winning stamina.

I'd like to screw her and her perfect ass. Dangerous curves. Sweet smile. Danielle Ashley probably even has a game-changing personality.

There's no denying the chemistry between them. It's so fiery, it's undeniable. They partake in it. Enjoy it.

They really enjoy it.

Attraction is not a problem. Nor is their banter, relationship status, or habits. That's all fine. Perfect, actually.

The problem is as tangled up as their sheets.

OH BOY.. I'M JUST LOVING THESE LANDRYS

From the first book in this addictive series I really didn't think I could love the Landry family any more than I already did.. but I was oh so wrong. This listen brought home just how close they are as a tight family unit - they're there for one another no matter what no matter when and I find that so inspiring. So it's no wonder that I fell hard for the baby of the family - the sweet, caring, carefree Baseball Superstar Lincoln Landry as he so easily falls in love. But it's convincing her and keeping her that's going to be the problem for this drool-worthy loveable hero who has never had to work for it before.

Danielle Ashley has had a bitter childhood of abandonment and neglect by her absentee parents - her Baseball Star Father and his devoted wife/her Mother so Danielle vows she will never fall into the trap of loving a sportsman who would constantly be away and will choose his sport's career over family life every single time. Nope, no way, not ever.. then she sees charismatic Lincoln Landry and her push/pull riot of emotions start because their chemistry is undeniable, the sex is fantastic and Lincoln could be everything she ever wanted. But Lincoln's at the top of his game, is only off because of a shoulder injury which is slowly healing and his contract is coming up for renewal so their future together is looking more and more doubtful - and nobody could've foreseen the cruel twist of fate.

Apart from the storyline which is filled with loveable characters, sexy times that make you swoon and easy banter between siblings, friends and lovers, the thing I love THE most about Adriana Locke's writing skills is the profound and very touching sentiments shared between lovers that tug at your emotions and leave you swooning for more. It's got a sweet Epilogue too. The dual POV narration was perfect thanks to Kai and Wen who each stick to their own genders voices and it gives the listen a more realistic natural flow.

Worth a credit? Yes absolutely - a very enjoyable character driven romance with relationship drama as two emotionally tortured lovers compromise to get their heart's desire. Ms Locke has already put the seeds in place within this listen for her next character to get their own book and I simply can't wait.

I enjoyed this book

I could have done without the sex scenes. But that's just me. Other than skipping over those parts I enjoyed the book.

First Barrett with the Grapes Now Lincoln with Ice

OMG! I guess I should just keep a spare pair lying around when I'm listening to the Landry family. I know I'm biased because Adriana Locke is one of my favorite authors but this chick writes the most amazing stories with very compelling characters. Lincoln Landry is just delicious with a cherry on top. Love the chemistry and sexual tension between Lincoln and Danielle right from their first meeting -- they keep you rooting for them. The family relationships just add more layers to the story and whets our appetites for whose story is next.

The narrators are awesome! It is so easy listening to Kai and Wen, they bring so much passion and emotions to the story. This is another hit for them.

This enticing romance is absolutely worth the credit.

Amazing and exciting

Due to being one of the amazing and so full of love books, I started this book this morning and could not put it down. It's been a while since I finished a book in a day. There are no words to express how much I simply loved this book. I really hope everyone who enjoys an awesome book reads this. Just loved this book.

My Two Pennies

Just when you think you can't love the Landry Family anymore we get to see more of them and get to experience all that is Lincoln. I loved Barrett but oohwiii Lincoln is a whole other level. Him and Danielle are on fire and even through the tough times their connection is strong. I was giggling at times with the way Lincoln is and the way his mind works and body temp rising others. Such a beautiful story and to see Danielle stand up for herself and be that strong woman is perfect. Great story and I hope we get to go deeper into the family in the near future. Landry Family all the way! This is my voluntary and unbiased review

A Definite Homerun!

I LOVE the Landry's. I have read the series at least 3 times. Every time, my favorite Landry switches! Lincoln is always near the top though! This is my first Landry book to actually listen to and it did not disappoint in any way! The narrators were fantastic and did an incredible job with this story! The instant chemistry and banter between the 2 main characters is fun and sexy and they pulled off these characters perfectly. This is a sexy sports romance that is SO much more than that. This is well worth the listen!!

Loved it! Sweet, sexy and all the best feels!

Of the books in The Landry Family series I have listened to-date, Swing is by far my favorite. I loved Lincoln in Sway, but in Swing, he blew me away. He was sweet and charming and so very caring. He is a baseball star and he knows it. One look at Danielle Ashley and he is smitten. She is smart, sexy and a game-changer. But she wants nothing to do with Lincoln. He is exactly the type of man she avoids at all cost.

And yet their attraction was immediate and intense. I loved their witty banter and interactions so much. Does Danielle take a chance on a man who could hurt her so much or give her everything she never knew she wanted? Lincoln knows Danielle is the one for him, but how does he show her? Baseball has been his life, but sometimes things change, right?

I absolutely loved listening to Swing by Adriana Locke. I devoured this audio and could not stop listening! Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross were absolutely amazing as Lincoln and Danielle. A must-read and/or listen too for sure!

Happy listening!

Love The Landry Family!

I absolutely love everything about this novel. This one hits a home run all the way around including the narration. The narrators knocked it out of the ball park. Told in dual narrative which brings it alive & captures the essence of the tone and pace. I love the southern sexy Landry boys voices and Mrs. Landry's voice is cool listening too also. A little bit of sports, romance, family moments, all rolled up into a fun & sexy dynamic read. I absolutely love all the character's & can't pick a favourite Landry brother yet till I listen to all their stories. I cannot wait to listen to the next novel in this series.

Amazing!!!!!

These books just keep getting better and better! I’m not one to typically binge read a series, but I totally see that happening here! The audios are absolutely amazing! I loved everything about this book! Moving on to book 3!

4.5 Who can resist Linc Stars!

Those southern sexy Landry men are so irresistible and Lincoln is the leader of the pack with his cocky, fun loving easy charm. He can have any woman he wants but his sights are set on the only woman who doesn't want him. Danielle Ashley is fun and easy to be around. She is interested in him and not just his baseball stats. Danielle is totally turned on by Linc's confidence, big athletic body, and his determination. But she also melts when he is kind, funny and thoughtful. But she is alone in the world and wants more in her life. She doesn't want to be a second choice and won't let herself fall for a man who loves a sport more than her. But Linc is determined to make her see him for more than a baseball player. When team business throws him a curveball, will Linc strikeout and leave Dani stranded on base? Linc and Dani are so good for each other. They make each other laugh, they have great chemistry, witty banter and their passion is off the charts. We also get to fall in love all over again with the whole Landry family as we witness their unconditional supportive relationships along with the fun sibling banter. Graham played a large part in this book and I can't wait for his story!
Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross were so much fun to listen to. They work well together in this dual narration and I was easily lost in this story.
I loved this second book in the Landry Family series. If you enjoy fun, sexy, and heartfelt sports romance stories, then you will definitely love this book!

Great

Oh how I love Linc...such a feel good storyline. Made me cry in places. Great emotion, very well written. Amazing performances by both Kai and Wen, yet again. They never disappoint!!

Wow!

Where does Swing rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Wow! This is definitely the best of the series so far! I loved Danielle and Lincoln as individuals but together as a couple is where they're most strongest. They really bounce of each other and their chemistry is undeniably woah! There's no major drama in their story but it really didn't need it at all. Loved it!

Which character – as performed by Kai Kennicott and Wen Ross – was your favourite?

Lincoln! He's in a league of his own!
