Ellie Anthony isn’t looking for love. She isn’t even looking for a man, but when Jax Mayson insists on keeping her and her daughter safe, she’s left with no choice but to trust him. Now she just hopes she doesn’t get hurt when she falls hard for a guy who’s known for breaking hearts.
Jax Mayson knows that Ellie is his BOOM the moment he sees her. When he finds out she has a daughter, he realizes he wants a family, and he will do whatever is necessary to keep both of his girls safe, even if that means facing the demons from his past.
Excerpt: Until Jax
“Thank you again for taking me.” Pulling my eyes from the road for a brief moment, I look at Ellie. Her head is resting against the window, her legs pulled up onto the seat, tucked near her ass, and her arms are wrapped tight around them. One thing I’ve noticed about her over the last few hours is she’s always wrapping her arms around herself or tucking her body into a tight ball. It’s like she’s forcing herself to stay together.
“I told you I got you, baby,” I say gently, wanting more than anything to take her hand in mine, but every time I touch her, she freezes up like she’s waiting for me to strike out at her, and I would be lying if I said that didn’t piss me the fuck off. It does; it feels like a slap in the face every time it happens.
“I know,” she whispers, and the tears I hear in her voice cause a sharp pain in my chest.
Fuck.
“This is the turnoff.” Her feet go to the floorboard and her hands to the dash as she sits up taller, moving her face closer to the windshield. We drive up a long dirt driveway with forest and the occasional broken down car on each side. When we make it to the top of the hill, a singlewide trailer comes into view, with junk cars and garbage piled up out front.
As soon as I come to a stop, she opens her door and hops out before I can tell her to keep her little ass in the cab. I don’t even know how I’m going to deal with the range of emotions that have settled over me since seeing her for the first time.
“Fucking Boom,” I mutter, getting out behind her and doubling my steps until I’m able to reach her side, where I wrap my hand around her waist and pull her closer to me. She’s so fucking tiny that the top of her dark head sits right at my chest. So fragile, from her too soft skin to her petite size. And she’s mine.

My Until Jax Review . . .
I signed up for this tour after reading the synopsis of the book plus I have heard such positive things about Aurora Rose Reynolds. Which means that this is the first book that I have read from this author and I think this book had so much potential but it is NOT a standalone. After I started to read it, I was completely lost, which made me have to buy and download Until July and skim through it so I had somewhat of a clue of what was going on in this book. Even more, I think this book would have been great if I had read the Until series as well as Until July.
Since Until Jax was my first I missed so much of what these series are about. After going on goodreads and looking into the other books I realized how much I missed :(. This series is about the BOOM - instalove but since I didn't read Until July first I completely missed Jax's BOOM.
If I had read at least Until July then I think I would have loved this book so much more, especially since I still liked this book even though I was quite clueless throughout.
Ellie has had some shit luck but has a heart of gold. Jax I didn't get a complete read as I was missing tons of information but Ellie is his BOOM and he will do anything to make Ellie his forever. But with Ellie also comes Hope (whom is my favorite character of the book). Jax quickly falls for the full package of Ellie, now he just has to convince Ellie of this, as well as keep her safe.
Jax is supposed to be Alpha like and I think he would have been more if I had read the other books to really capture his masculine ways. But even though with those parts missing, I did appreciate his BOOM and his love for Ellie and Hope.
This book was sweet and a bit suspenseful. I quite liked it, but if I had the whole Until experience I KNOW that I would have liked it so much more than I did. One thing I know for sure is that I will be reading the other Until series as now I'm completely intrigued with this series and this author.
3.5 BOOM Thumbs up!
