Blurb:
Blaire Gibson knows better than to have one-night stands.

She prides herself on her decision-making skills. It’s the one asset that has never let her down. But even the best thinkers have weaknesses. Hers is a delicious business mogul with a quick tongue. Unfortunately for her, that tongue is good for more than just talking.

Holt Mason doesn’t need to justify anything to anyone.

He wants Blaire. He pursues Blaire. And he gets Blaire because that’s how his life works.

Until it doesn’t.

What begins as a single night in a hotel room spirals into an unusual agreement. As late nights provide the space to trade secrets and walls come tumbling down, more is shared than just pillow talk.

They both should’ve known better. They should’ve shown restraint. Because when guards are dropped, hearts get hurt.

*RESTRAINT is a brand-new standalone romance from USA Today Bestselling author Adriana Locke.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Restraint features the last of the Gibson siblings, Blaire, and starts off a new family series with Holt Mason. 

Both are work-oriented and have no time for relationships. However, one chance run-in (literally) starts a chain of events that proves that love finds you even when you aren't looking for it. 


The Gibson series is one of my absolute favorite series. So, when I realized this was about Blaire, I was so excited! 

However, it took me a bit to connect with her. It isn't until she delves into her past that everything begins to click. Blaire at her most vulnerable is probably one of the most emotional pieces I have read this year! Her standing on the staircase struggling to keep it together had me also struggling to keep it together while reading it!

Then there is Holt. Hot, always needing to be in control, stubborn Holt. Blaire brings out a side of him that he didn't think existed. Even with these new feelings, he still thinks he has nothing to offer Blaire. 

The ending was different than most but it worked with these two. This was the ending that these two needed! 

I can't wait to see what happens next with the next Mason brother!
