text: Adriana Locke is one of my top go to authors. She writes books that everyone wants to read because she is a master storyteller. Her writing is excellent and her character development is brilliant. Crank is the beginning of Ms. Locke’s The Gibson Boys Series and the final Landry sibling installment. Walker Gibson is a big cranky hunk of a man and Sienna is independent southern girl and when the two meet is it is captivating. There’s a lot of back and forth between the two of them that is quite entertaining. When they final manage to get together it is so hot that I’m surprised that the building didn’t burn down. Ms. Locke has always had strong supporting characters in her books and this one is no different. With their introduction in Lucky Number Eleven, I was looking forward to more of the Gibson Boys but getting to know them better in Crank just makes me dizzy with excitement for the next installment of the series.
