S.E.X. Review~ Redcars Box Set by RJ Scott

Three broken men. Three dangerous love stories. One found family worth killing for.

Redcars isn't just a garage in the heart of Los Angeles. It's a sanctuary for men with blood on their hands, scars on their souls, and nowhere else to go.

When a hunted survivor crashes through their gates, Enzo will do whatever it takes to keep him safe.

When old enemies resurface, Jamie and Killian find themselves caught between revenge and a need neither man can control.

And when a hacker marked for death brings a billionaire's deadly secrets to their door, Rio discovers just how far he'll go to protect the man he's claimed as his own.

Together, these three dark MM romantic suspense novels deliver high-stakes danger, found family, fierce loyalty, damaged heroes, obsessive devotion, and hard-won happy endings.

The Redcars Box Set includes ENZO, JAMIE, and RIO—three interconnected stories of survival, vengeance, healing, and the kind of love that refuses to let go.

Previously read and reviewed, Redcars Boxset was not for the faint of heart and heed all warnings. But, in true RJ Scott fashion, the stories are worth the read and will capture you in ways you did not think possible.

Enzo

Grit and grime are not usually words I associated with an RJ Scott novel, but Enzo, Red Cars 1 was exactly that. No warm fuzzies. No sweet platitudes. Hard men with newfound purposes and just enough humanity to find love.

Ex con Enzo and a nefarious group of men lived and breathed Red Cars- given a second chance at life after committing heinous crimes. They protect their own no matter the means.

Robbie fell into their laps after escaping unimaginable horrors, basically left for dead.

The dynamics between Enzo and Robbie was slow burning as Robbie learned to trust his new protector while Enzo learned to accept goodness could fall into his lap.

Ms Scott delivered a new form of writing that immediately transferred from vengeance to underdog to cheering for protagonist with an edge. After getting over the initial shock of the author’s new writing venture, this reader opened her mind and absorbed the characterization; looking past their flaws and embracing these new unlikely heroes.

Jamie

Jamie by RJ Scott was dark with morally gray characters. Jamie led a tumultuous life, allowing fire to not only fuel him but keep the spirits at bay. Killian, defense attorney and former Redcars recipient, not only worked in his profession, but also with a group of people who charged forward to take down the corrupt from the inside out.

Although the characters in the book did nefarious things to accomplish specific illegalities, (yes, trigger warnings were given with the book), Ms Scott developed her characters into tangible people who you could not help but cheer for. Sometimes with all the ugly in the world the only way to fight corruption was with fire (no pun intended).

I liked all the men in the book, and much like Robbie in the first book, Enzo, Jamie tugged at my heartstrings. Killian was the calm in his storm, and they made it work. I look forward to learning more about this rag tag group in the next book and falling more between the lines of black and white.

Rio

This reader absolutely enjoyed Rio.  Rio was a larger than life and protective character in the first two books; one who piqued my interest and did not disappoint.

A fighter, not necessarily by choice or nature, Rio and his friends became involved further into the underbelly of trafficking and murder when Lyric, a man from Jamie’s past showed up at Redcars, nearly dead and in need of help.

The overall arc of the three stories is well developed and well written. Ms Scott took careful planning and engaged the reader in all characters from the first book and throughout.

As much as these characters are morally grey, I cannot help but feel for them and cheer for them to succeed in their mission of survival.

Getting a better understanding of Rio only endeared me to him more than I originally thought. He and Lyric walked a thin line of trust and eventually love which brough out a softer side to Rio towards the end of the book.

A series worth reading, Ms Scott’s venture into the darker side has sure hit the mark.

Definite S.E.X.
