About this item

One woman learns the secrets of the five Jaeger brothers in the new romance from New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas.

On the other side of town, in the dark glades, under the rain…

Macon is the oldest. Thirty-one. Ex-Marine. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him smile.

Army is twenty-eight. A single dad with the most beautiful green eyes. He has no idea who he is, if not a Jaeger brother.

Iron will be in prison soon. You’d never think it to meet him. He’s a nice guy, actually. But he can’t stop reacting to everything.

Dallas is the one I hate. Twenty-one, cruel, and selfish. He takes and then throws away whatever’s left.

And Trace is mine. Or he was for about two seconds. No one can tame him for long.

Not that I ever wanted to. It was fun, but now I need to go home. Back to my side of the tracks. Away from the swamps and these men. To my parents’ big house. On my clean street. Where I’m never dirty or messy or hot. And I will. I’ll leave first thing tomorrow morning. I just want to crash on the couch tonight.

Their house is dark and quiet, everyone else is asleep. Except for one. He sees me crying and comes at me from behind. I let him wrap his arms around my body and hold me tightly. His breath is on my neck, his fingers are in my hair, and he doesn’t stop there.

I don’t think it was Trace.

Loved the book from start to finish! Definitely had alot of spice, good plot and storyline. Enjoyed the characters even if the names were a bit odd. Kept my interest throughout the book.
I really enjoyed the family dynamics among Macon’s household and how hard they fought and lived for what they wanted.
So glad to see Macon and Krisjen married and a happy ever after ending. Can’t wait to read another book by this author.

The story was alright, not my favorite book but it was still sweet. I like the age difference and the many brothers but sometimes the story felt very choppy and it bored me sometimes. I need to read the other book to make up my mind on this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wrecked Me as I laughed
Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2024
I read books quite often that bring me to tears or laughter at different points in the pages. Rarely do I read a book that I laugh and cry at the same time over the same dialogue. While I originally was confused about the subject of the book but this book beautifully tells the story of the relationship the brothers have within themselves as well as their dynamic with Krisjen (the MMC). This was a soul search prompting book. Penelope Douglas is fast becoming one of my favorite writers. Thanks to TikTok for introducing me to her talent. This isn't for the faint of heart and their are triggers - but I felt like the triggers that I reacted too were dealt with in such a way that actually helped my soul. The only thing I would like is a continuation. The epilogue left some open endings and I really want more about Iron and Dallas!

3.0 out of 5 stars No connection
Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2024
I probably had a bias going into this one, because of online spoilers revealing who she'd end up with. As it always seems to happen with me reading poly-type books, the heroine inevitably ends up with the person(s) that I wasn't leaning towards being the Hero. And Five Brothers followed that same pattern for me. To me, there were connections with people who ended up not being the H, which were stronger than who it turned out to be. While reading, I was rooting for those brothers, so of course, when it was obvious in the book who would be the H, the excitement was gone for me.

I am all for RH stories, and even sharing within an M/F book, so her being with multiple partners didn't bother me in the least. It was just that I felt a better connection with people she didn't end up with. The romance was lacking for me as well. Chemistry, it was there between everyone, and some of the bedroom scenes were top notch. But the love, I just didn't feel it. Honestly, I am not sure that any of the brothers deserved her, they way they treated her and spoke to her. It felt more like she just wanted to be part of the family, no matter who would take her.

Five Brothers by Penelope Douglas is an electrifying tour de force that grips you from the very first page and never lets go. Douglas weaves a tantalizing narrative filled with raw emotion, steamy romance, and unforgettable characters. The dynamic between the five brothers and the leading lady is intense, layered, and irresistibly addictive. Each brother is distinct, bringing their own unique flavor to the story, while the romance is both passionate and poignant. Douglas’s writing is sharp and immersive, making every twist and turn feel fresh and exciting. Five Brothers is a thrilling ride that combines heart-stopping drama with intense romance. It’s a must-read for anyone who loves a high-stakes, emotionally charged story. Five stars, without a doubt!

I heard about Credence. So I had to read it. I had five brothers on my TBR. At first, I had to reread pages. There are 5 of them. But I kept at it. It's a nice size book. And each brother had some good characteristics.
There's this couple of sentences, about half way through the book. He thought about her for a long time. She was 11 and he was about 26. That actually caught my heart. Now...it isn't improper or warped.
She finally finds the person she is meant to be with. And it's a good HEA.
Penelope Douglas has written a good pile of books. She is very worth your time. Take a look at the warnings. Spice? Yes! Spice and a decent plot. A twist here and there. But it can be a stand alone. Sometimes, you want a story to just end and tied up right there. Will I ever read the connected story to this? Not sure. Maybe....❤️????❤️
