5 Surprising But Awesome Stars!

I know I have an unhealthy obsession regarding Ty and Zane, which would of course include all periphery characters and spinoffs, and though they will probably forever remain my favorite m/m couple, Nick and Kelly may have taken the #2 spot.

Right off the bat, this is steeped heavily in all things Sidewinder (which also includes Owen, Digger, Eli and Ty) so if you don't like that dynamic, then sadly this last entry is not for you. Though the focus is on Nick and Kelly's relationship, this is more of a homage to their past, present, and certainly their future. Also if you thought their initial coming together was too simple/sweet, their staying together is anything but, as they're blindsided over and over with unresolved issues. Old secrets, past hurts, and a shit ton of baggage threaten to tear them apart. What they thought should be easy - isn't. What they thought should settle - didn't. What they thought was unconditional - just might not be. Can they reconcile their anger and guilt?? Can they find redemption so they can happily move on??

Have no fear, this is still peppered with plenty of smexiness, humor, and glee, in and amongst some heavy, painful angst. Spurred by a dead man's last request, the guys embark on a journey to remember what's important, understand past events, and renew their bond. Of course this made me swoon, cry and laugh - the men remember what made them strong and find forgiveness in the other.

I marvel at the genius of Roux, as she takes every fun, and not so fun, event that has been riddled throughout this entire series and brought it full circle - filling in blanks and adding profound weight to what has happened in the lives of these six men. I am truly impressed and grateful for such a conclusion. Bittersweet but oh so satisfying, we regretfully come to the end of this wild ride.

However one thing remains certain. Nick, Kelly, Owen, Digger, Ty, and of course Zane, would certainly unquestionably bleed, not hesitate to kill, and no doubt die for the other - and that is a wonderful thing to know and witness.

Ooh fucking rah!! ( )

I have been a huge fan of Roux’s Sidewinder series since a good friend gave me the first book in the series that featured Ty and Zane. Along the way I met their friends that are featured in this one. I have to admit that I am more drawn to Ty and Zane’s dynamics and humor than Nick and Kelly’s. Still the story was intriguing as it focused on the ends that true and valued loves and friendships will go to in order to assure that it survives whatever life throws in it’s path. We see the team across time from 1999 through 2013 and get a much better understanding of the individuals and team’s relationships that define them… and best of all we get to hear it throughout from Zane who was not a member of the team in those years. I hope Abigail Roux continues this series with new views into the lives of these guys. ( )

This book has a different feel from the others set in Cut & Run/Sidewinder universe. We don't get the explosive atmosphere they're usually in, but we're given a deep insider look at our guys instead.

I loved taking this journey with them. I lost count of how many times I teared up. I chuckled at their silly antics plenty also. Part & Parcel is about the whole gang healing and finding their brotherhood again. It's also about Nick and Kelly getting right in their relationship.

I enjoyed every word. I loved and laughed and commiserated every step with them. I feel a bond with every member now including Eli. This book really helped to catch me up on the present and past of Sidewinder. It's like an emotional cleansing for the guys and the reader.

The bonus Brick & Mortar scene at the really pumped me up for what's to come. I'm so thankful the author is continuing to write stories about the men I love. Yes, I recommend this story.

It's been some time since I read a book of this series, but I could get right into the story again with absolutely no problems at all

Sidewinder is at its best in this book. It's funny and so emotional and I love how Eli becomes alive again (through memories only of course). He was always this phantom, but now he is 'real'.

There is no happy ever after without doing something for it, so the work Nick and Kelly have to put into their relationship is very real.

Brownie points for Digger! Don't know why? Go and read it. Now. ( )
