Crank is a standalone romance in a new small town, blue-collar series from USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke. Join readers everywhere as they fall in love with the delicious Gibson Boys.
This is one mistake Sienna Landry can’t buy her way out of.
As Walker Gibson looks at her, then at the damage to his precious truck (that she may or may not have accidentally inflicted), she knows she’s in trouble. It’s not the busted headlight and dented grill that’s sunk her though. It’s the downright sinful man in front of her that’s the problem.
The small town mechanic is broody. Rough. Smells like engine grease and gasoline and Sienna isn’t sure why that’s so sexy, but it is. It so is. She’s ready to peel off her panties at the drop of his wrench.
He wants her too. She can feel it when he brushes against her. Experience it as he presses her against the wall of the shop. It’s thinly veiled in his deep, brown eyes when he looks at her like she’s everything he’s ever wanted. So why won’t he give in?
The damage to Walker’s truck is the first of many mistakes between the two of them, ending with truths that rock Sienna’s world. Nothing can fix her broken heart except the love of a man that won’t, maybe even can’t, love her back.

As for the book itself, Adriana Locke sure knows how to write small town romance. This is a small town grumpy mechanic meets a wealthy designer. The chemistry between Walker & Sienna practically jumps through the speaker. She's sweet and outgoing and he's grumpy and introverted. What seems like an unlikely match-up turns out to be just what these two characters need from a significant other. Everything seems to be going their way until the secret Walker's been keeping comes to light. The question these two now face is, how much can love overcome.
Not only is this book amazing, but it sets up the rest of the series great as well. There was no way after reading book one that I wouldn't be reading the rest of the series. It seems the Gibson family knows how to grow good looking men and I want to know all about each and every one of them.
Walker Gibson is a small town, grumpy mechanic and when he's not working he likes to have a beer in his brothers bar. His night just got worse when his truck Daisy, got beat up with a baseball bat by a stranger named Sienna Landry. The slugger is a knock out and promises to come to his shop on Monday with payment for the damages.
Sienna is in town from Georgia on business with her best friend. She was bored and the bat slipped and hit the hotties head light! Sienna is ashamed that she didn't apologize so when she goes to pay for damages she sees the garage is a mess and decides to work off her bill instead.
These 2 fight to keep their hands off each other and their minds out of the gutter. Witty banter turns into a ride neither expected and Sienna considers staying in town until a secret Walker has been keeping is exposed. Her heart is broke and she will not be anyone's doormat...
If you enjoy:
✔ a broody hero who secretly has a heart of gold
✔ a kind, compassionate and generous heroine
✔ fun banter
✔ fun friends and loving family
✔ sexual tension plus all the swoon
then this book is for you.
Kai and Wen did a good job of bringing the characters to life.
He told her she had to show up on Monday to pay the damage or he would call the police.
She shows up at the garage called Crank with intentions of paying him. But he isn going to let her get off that easy. He wants her to work it off.
She thinks he's just a grumpy person. Peck is Walker's cousin, is funny and tries to keep the two of them together.
He knows Walker hasn't been close to any woman in awhile.
But he is attracted to Sienna in so many ways but he doesn't want to let on he is.
He has been hurt before by his ex. Sienna wants him as much as he wants her. But he never thought he would fall in love again. So he wants to find his ex to get the divorce never signed.
Messy for a while and Sienna is ready to head home to her family.
Great story of two people who have to work out their past and work for the future.
Loved the characters in the story and the families stepping up for them

MOVE OVER LANDRY’S, THE GIBSON’S ARE HERE !!
Walker Landry, is a grumpy, broody Mechanic, and isn’t overly happy to leave his brother’s bar one night to find a strikingly beautiful Blonde battering his car with a baseball bat !!! Well holy crap i wasn’t sure what to expect with this book, so to say i was pleasantly surprised would be an understatement!!!
Sienna Landry has definitely got herself into hot water when she crosses paths with Walker Gibson. Just at a time when she is pondering returning home, the depth of her attraction to him has her re-evaluating everything she has always wanted or expected in her life. Working at “Crank” to pay off the cost of the damage she caused to his car, she finds her attraction and confusion to Walker Gibson growing, right along with her affection for his brothers and family.
Walker is determined not to get involved with Sienna and does everything to push her away. Until he can’t deny what’s happening.
Well what can i say, This book right from beginning to end had me in a tizzy !! I adored these brothers and the humor, yet underneath all these laughs, i felt my emotions building towards both Walker and Sienna. This story is written with heart and soul. I loved that Walker was a man i could so easily identify with, not a billionaire, not a mobster, just a man, an everyday man with life’s scars and heartaches. The chemistry between Walker and Sienna was hotter than hades, and you will definitely need a fan to cool down !!! You are gonna need a fan anyhow because all these brother’s are HOT!! This love between Sienna and Walker had my heart fit to burst with joy, and i could see their perfect ending in front of me. Then, thank you Adriana !! My heart was burst and the tears flowed !! How could they come back from this? Well ya gotta read it, because believe me those Walker boys will not give up on getting what is theirs !!! Adriana Locke has set a whole new standard with Crank. This book has definitely jumped way into my tops of this year and my tops of books by Adriana Locke. Need more Gibson boys now !!!!

Throughout the story, I couldn't help but laugh and cry along with them. I love when an author can make me feel like I am a bystander to the story they are telling.
I have read all the Landry books and loved every one. Sienna was always the rebel of the family. The one who wasn't around much and I looked forward to reading more about her.
Walker's story was a good start to the beginning of another series and I am hoping Peck will be given his own story.

This is a smashing read from the very first page, you will laugh, cry and also want to smack them all a few times but do yourself a favour......buy a copy of this book if you haven’t already


Adriana Locke continues to go from strength to strength and this book is the perfect example of how effortlessly and flawless her writing really is.
This story captured me, pulled me in and transported me to a whole other place that I absolutely fell in love with. Sigh!
It was amazing! Can’t wait for the others!
