Bared. (Green St. Girls #1)Bared. by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Athena and her fellow “Green Street Girls” are all alone, except for each other. That’s really the way they like it – able to choose the form of redemption they prefer. Athena chooses her redemption in the form of owning several nightclubs and currently working on one that will host the World Billiards Tour of Champions.

Trumball, or Tru, struts into her life when he shows up early for the Tour. He has a killer smile and confidence that almost can’t even be believed. When they hit it off with abundant chemistry bursting between them, Athena decides to give him a bit of time he won’t be able to forget. After all, even though her past is awful and she is a 21 year old, worldly millionaire, she can’t ignore him and the potential of being together. She is unable to leave it as a fling and begins to have feelings for him. Where will their explosive chemistry lead?

There is drama and tension, passion and chemistry, strong female friendships with tough women, and sweet funny moments, as well. I’ll be finishing the series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Green Street Girls are Athena, Gywn, Indigo, and Charlie. They came together from all of their unfortunate circumstances. These girls have made a way for themselves though and are now successful in life.

Indi’s story is featured here. She’s met Athena’s brother, Gideon and he’s an angel in disguise. However, as things progress, Indi has past traumas to master dealing with before she can go any further in her relationship with Gideon. Her gamer skills are spot on but the threats keep coming from all around. Her Girls are there to help her but Gideon’s wings are stronger.

Another great read by N.D. Jackson that I read in one sitting. I’m looking forward to more stories about these girls.

Bared. (Green St. Girls #1)Bared. by N.D. Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Athena, Gwyn, Indigo and Charlie are known as the Green Street Girls. Each girl has had a difficult life but they have found a way to turn things around and are now successful.

Bared is Athena’s story. Abandoned by her family at the age of 13, she’s lived a rough life. Things got better when she found her new family in the Green Street Girls though. She’s a night club owner with sites all over the world. She’s living the high life and her family would never believe where she is now. No one can find her though. Athena’s managed to keep her life under wraps from those in her past. Even meeting Tru pushes her to her limits but she’s immediately smitten with him. Can he get Athena out of the past and more into the present?

This was an enjoyable story to read and I read it in one setting. I’m looking forward to reading Indi’s story next.

Bared starts out so tragically. You can feel the pain but then as it goes further you learn more about Athena. Will Tru be enough for her or is he just like everyone else who is intimidated by her? You’ll love the sexual tension and the way everything is written. A good romance story with some sports.

If you have read Bared you’ll love Broken. It starts out with the same tragedy but from Indy’s point of view. This is the second in the Green St Girls series but can be read alone. I’m stickler for the name Gideon so I’m pretty partial to this book. The characters are written so well. Read both books in the series in one day.

We all know the girls who know everything but keep their heads down and their circle small. Girls who can answer any question before anyone else has time to process the question. Those girls are typically anti-social, quiet, and lonely. This girl, Indigo, is no different. However, the circumstances that surrounds her have her increasing her strength, courage, and bravery. I enjoyed every minute of reading Indigo’s transformation and feeling her ambition, drive, and determination. I loved the emotions and the effortless read. This book continued to have twists, adventures, danger, and challenging situations. I highly recommend this feel good read!

This book is sooo well written. It’s so good and captivating that I couldn’t put it down. It gives me Kennedy Ryan vibes in terms of the writing and the plot so if you like her books you’ll like this one. I went ahead and read the 2nd book and ugh, I can’t wait for more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It’s been a while since I read book 1, but guess what I like book 2 better. Broken has so much more to offer. The author doesn’t disappoint in the 2nd installment of The Green Street Girls. I would think there will be one more book since there’s one more girl left, but we shall see.
These books are a series but are very much standalone novels as well. Do you benefit from reading both, absolutely, but it’s not required.
These girls fought from the trenches to where they are today. This book specifically focuses on Indigo. And Indigo is in the exact state as the title Broken. She’s been abused in ways that could trigger some, so read with caution. Never in a million years did she think the one that could set her on the path to being mended is right under her nose.
Enter Gideon, he best friend’s baby brother, who just happens to be living on her property. We he’s tasked to protect from threats on her life, things change and evolve.
How does Indigo respond to how she feels for Gideon?
The author wrote the perfect man in Gideon. Sweet, friendly, protective, caring all the things women dream of.
But the justice the author did Indigo is leaps and bounds ahead of that. The growth and mending the dhe experienced throughout was written beautifully.
This book had me wanting more. Though I figured part of it out early on, it was the chemistry between the two characters that kept me intrigued.
A wonderful series that exudes “girl power.” If you’re looking for a book or series with strong female characters, these books are for you!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book in Green Street Girls series. This is a really moving story about friendship and how the girls have grown close together when they had no one else but each other. Each of the girls are unique and different and this story follows Indigo.

Indigo has had a hard upbringing which has left her fearful and scared of letting people in. She makes a promise to try and allow love into her life but she doesn’t hold out much hope.
She is a successful gamer and software producer. From the outside it looks like she has it all but the shadow of her stepfather isn’t far behind.
When she creates some software and is about to make a big deal with it suddenly threats appear. Threats that could mean harm to Indigo.
While she is successful she struggles to form emotional relationships. When her relationship with Athena’s brother Gideon turns from friendship to something more this could be Indigos chance. But when things start to get rough with the threats will she allow and trust Gideon to protect her or will she push him away from fear of being let down and hurt again.

This is a moving and at times heartbreaking story. The author does an amazing job of making the characters emotions and fears jump off the page allowing the reader to fully understand and feel everything that is happening. This is also a story of hope as Indigo trys to move away from her past and create a better future for herself. This is a great captivating read.

Broken was a really enjoyable read. I was looking forward to reading it after reding the first book in the series. The group of girls in the stories are great to read about. This book was Indigo’s story. She was such a. Great character to read about. I love the interaction between all the characters they are very entertaining and they definitely kept me entertained with the antics and their friendship really shines through. I liked Gideon as well, he was definitely prepared to step up and protect Indigo when she needed it.
I am really looking forward to the next book in the series.

This is the second book in the series. While I haven’t read the previous book this does well as a stand alone story. The author weaves plenty of back story so you don’t feel lost with the characters. This store offers plenty of charged emotions, twisted adventures, strong women, and plenty of romance to keep you turning the pages. The author did a wonderful job with healing from trauma and the feelings of sexual abuse. This is a poignant yet heart-warming, story about friendship and finding love.

Athena and Tru’s story bring you in from the very beginning. This is a great romance. The way the writer portrays the characters it feels like you are right there with them going through everything they are going through. I love that this isn’t one of those fairytale romances that portrays life and relationships as all sunshine’s and rainbows. It’s real and gritty.

I loved book one in this series and book two did not disappoint! In this story we met Indigo, another of the Green Street Girls. Indigo’s story is complex, but the details are portrayed beautifully as you get to know her and her story comes to life. The connection between Indigo and Gideon is undeniably romantic. I was captivated by their chemistry. If you haven’t checked out this series, or this author, you are missing out! Though this book does read well as a stand alone, it’s even better if read along with the first!

This was the second book in the Green St. Girls series and while I didn’t read book one, this was definitely able to stand alone, but I will absolutely be checking out book one to get more of the back story on the four girls. I absolutely love Indigo and Gideon together. They were so adorable together and I loved how patient and supportive Gideon was with Indigo. I also loved the multiple POV’s so we could get into the minds of both of the main characters. Indigo has overcome so much and the author did an amazing job of balancing her accomplishments and her feelings of inadequacy perfectly. This was a fast paced book that had not only the romance, but also elements of suspense and danger. I can’t wait to read the rest of the books in the series!

Athena is getting ready for the WPBA Pool Championships at her bar, the Shamrock Pool Hall and Pub when Tru walks through the door. Something about the man has her agreeing to a date and spending time with him. Having been burned once before Athena she is cautious, but can she find a happily ever after and trust Tru.

The thing about this book is it has amazing characters. I really liked Athena, she is sassy and when she is with Tru the pages ignite. Tru oozes magnetism, he has an allure about him that keeps you riveted. Great beginning to series.

Broken is the second book in the Green St. Girls Series and is a Contemporary Romance with plenty of drama, friends to enemies and so much more. This author never ceases to amaze me with her creative yet developed and complex characters with a storyline that has you going through the notions/ emotions with the characters. I started reading this late in the evening and ended up staying up till two am I had to know what was going to happen next. I loved everything about this book from the amazing cover to everything in between. This is Indigo’s story and its packed with twists and turns with drama and danger , suspense and pain and so much more. I have really become connected to these characters and everything they have gone through and I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author and look forward to more from this series.

I knew that having loved the first book in the series that it was going to be a challenge to follow it up, but N.D. Jackson knows EXACTLY what they’re doing here! The author provided such a perfect second installment with vivid imagery and beautifully written descriptions of scenes, so much so that I felt transported to this world. I was completely captivated once again and fell in love with Indigo and Gideon. I highly recommend picking up the first book before reading this one just to gain some of the depth you’d miss without it. You won’t regret either choice because these books are absolutely fantastic. I can’t wait for the next book to drop!

I definitely couldn’t pace myself with this story…I read it all in one go! I had to find out what would happen as the author drew me in with such finesse that I didn’t realize until I had finished half the book. The synopsis gripped me, and I knew I had to give Bared a chance. Thank goodness I did! I fell in love with the Green Street Girls quickly and found myself fully invested in each of the characters right away. I am so excited by this book that I’ve already picked up the next one to see what the author has in store!

After reading Athena’s story in the first book of the Green St. Girls series, I was instantly hooked. The author did an amazing job portraying someone struggling with their past demons. This book is no different.

This time around we follow Indigo, a gamer genius who also dabbles in other software. She ran away at the age of 15 and met the other girls on Green St. Since she was the youngest, she was the most sheltered and protected of the group. Indigo was sexually abused by her step father causing her to have giant trust issues with men in particular.

In the first book we are introduced to Athena’s brother Gideon who quickly becomes friends and then roommates with Indigo. Things are different between Indigo and Gideon first thing. He is the first guy she has felt comfortable with in a long time and doesn’t want anything to risk that.

Meanwhile, Indigo created a recognition software that she is in the process of potentially leasing out to the government if things go accordingly. Someone does not want this to happen. Indigo starts receiving threats to shut it down. She lets Gideon in on the threats and he vows to protect her. It’s hard to avoid romantic feelings if you are always with each other.

The author did an amazing job once again with traumatic healing and the different feelings associated with it. I am also a victim of sexual abuse and the author described my feelings to a tee when I started becoming interested in men again. It is like they are speaking from experience (which in a way I hope they aren’t). The book feels very authentic. Indigo goes through self doubt and paranoia. Years later and her abuser is still not forgotten and still has control over her. Luckily Indigo is a strong woman who is dedicated to not letting him win. With the help of a loyal and sweet guy to show her how strong and brave she truly is.

Broken is Book Two in the Green St. Girls Series. After reading the first book I immediately dove into reading this one. I became heavily invested in the Green Street Girls and was anxious to read more about them. This story centers around a character by the name of Indigo who is part of the Green Street Girls. She has worked hard to give herself a good life but all of that is threatened when she starts receiving threats for a software she is developing. Her friend, and roommate, Gideon, steps up to help Indigo and protect her from whoever has been threatening her. In doing so, he realizes that his feelings for her are stronger than just friendship. Although Indigo has allowed her wall to come down enough to form a friendship with Gideon can she truly trust him? This book was beautifully written with a storyline and characters that I became heavily invested in. Indigo is strong, smart, and ambitious but because of her past has developed trust issues. Gideon is sweet, kind, and a good friend to Indigo. He wants to love her, protect her, and be there for her. Gideon does his best to prove to Indigo that she can trust him, but will he be able to penetrate the wall she has formed to protect herself? A great read full of drama, intrigue, danger, friendships, angst, love, romance, and hope. I highly recommend!

Bared is Book One in the Green St. Girls Series. The story centers around a character named Athena who has had a hard time trusting anyone because of her past. She becomes a bit of a loner in a sense until she meets Tru who also has a hard time trusting anyone. The attraction between them is intense but having a relationship may be out of the question due to their trust issues. Athena makes friends with a group of girls who all have had hardships in their past. The girls call themselves the Green Street Girls and act as a support network for one another. Through tough times the girls lean on each other and help one another survive. I loved how the Green Street Girls helped one another through the hardest of struggles. Their friendship gave one another hope and a will to go on which I found endearing. I loved each one of the girls’ individual characters and felt their stories resonate with me. This book was beautifully written, and I could not help but feel an emotional connection with each of the Green Street Girls. I found myself cheering them on to find happiness, love, and a good life. I highly recommend this book!

Broken by N.D. Jackson – 5 out of 5 stars

I absolutely love the character development of Indigo. The author eases you into a life Indigo has created for herself, seemingly perfect, but on closer look, it is riddled with cracks. The mental, physical, and emotional torment she experienced at the hands of someone she was supposed to be able to trust would destroy most. Then, Gideon walked into Indigo’s life. Feelings she had never felt showed their face. Emotions she did not think she could ever have were suddenly front and center.

This gem had me giggling, triggered, and purring like a cat in heat all in the same chapter! The only thing I wish the author would have included was the capture of Indigo’s tormentor and justice for his wrongdoings. But alas. All in all, this book was great!

This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up by this author. This is the second book in this series which I highly suggest reading as it is just as great as this one if not better. This is a well written story about second chance romance and finding something that was lost within you. Will this character find it in herself to be brave enough to get what she wants? I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into their world with ease and kept me there until the end. They have great chemistry and attachment which makes the story easy and entertaining. This is a fast paced story that is hard to put down. This is one you don’t want to miss. I highly recommend this book and this author.

All that was left is letting someone new get close to her. I struggled with the pacing throughout the book, at times it would get going at a great pace, others it seemed to move really slow, and then others things moved extremely fast.

Indigo is a genius who has had a troubled life but has taken everything she can to create a life she only dreamed of. When she begins to get threats for a software she is developing it drums up old memories that still haunt her. She has her girls by her side but now she has Gideon.

Gideon is living with Indigo but strictly as friends. His feelings for the brilliant woman is growing with each day. He steps up when she needs protecting, he realizes there is more to Indigo then he thought. He wants Indigo to trust him, he wants to be her everything if she can drop the erected walls and let him in. Can Indigo trust Gideon not to trust him or will she bury her head in the sand and lose everything?

I liked this one quite a bit. It is fast paced, action packed. I enjoyed all the characters and am looking forward to reding the next book. I thought Indigo was fascinating, you are hoping she takes a chance with Gideon and understand why she is hesitant. I thought that the way the emotions are detailed in the story really pulled you in. Wonderful read.

Friends to lovers but more
This is the second book in the Green Street Girls series and it did not disappoint. The writing is full of imagery and the characters have depth. This is Indigo’s story which covered a range of emotions. The friendship between the girls runs strong and Indigo needed all of them along with Gideon to be able to face the threat. Thoroughly enjoyable and looking forward to the next book. Recommend.
