"The Forgotten Child" introduces us to Brad Friessen, a man who never expected to find love again. But fate has other plans when he meets a woman who turns his lonely world upside down, igniting a connection like no other.

In "A Baby And A Wedding," Emily and Brad seem to have it all—marriage, love, and a baby on the way. Yet, an unexpected surprise threatens to shatter their happiness, putting their love and commitment to the ultimate test.

"Fallen Hero" is a tale of unexpected second chances, where love emerges from unexpected places, healing old wounds and reigniting flames that were once thought extinguished.

"The Awakening" tells the story of a young woman who has lost everything, finding solace in the arms of a wealthy rancher who becomes her savior and her reason to hope again.

In "Secrets," we discover the dark shadows that can lurk behind seemingly perfect relationships. Jed's promises were meant to keep everything together, but secrets have a way of unraveling even the strongest of bonds.

"Runaway" takes us on a thrilling journey as Andy sets out to bring his runaway bride home. Little does he know that he's about to encounter a surprise that will change everything.

As Diana and Jed face the overwhelming exhaustion of impending parenthood in "Overdue," they reach their breaking point. But a surprising and creative solution emerges from an unexpected source—Jed's mother, Becky.

In "The Unexpected Storm," one man finds he can have any woman, except the one he truly desires. Will he find a way to win her heart?

Finally, in "The Wedding," a man known for his meticulous planning is thrown off course when he meets a woman who has struggled and persevered through life's challenges. Their union will not only redefine their lives but will also set them on a path they never anticipated.

Join the Friessen family as they discover the power of love, the strength of family bonds, and the resilience needed to endure the trials of life. "The Outsider Series: The Complete Collection" is a journey of passion, courage, and unwavering commitment—an epic saga that will capture your heart from beginning to end.

This series just keeps getting better! You build a relationship with the members and as you turn each page you become a part of the women and men in the Friessen family. Lorainne Eckhart let's you know the good and bad parts of each member of the family. Even the children become your friends! This amazing author let's you in on the motives, the worries, the pride, hope and ,expectations of this family as they plan out their lives and then deal with the changes life sends their way. As I turned the last pages, I panicked at the thought of losing touch with these literary friends. The author does not disappoint as she too continues the series with "The New Beginning: The Freissen Story Continues"

I loved this family!! I accidentally began The Friessens Reunion and had to go back to find the beginning because I couldn't NOT know about the characters and their history!

I gave four stars because I was a bit disappointed in the women, they tended to be on the quick to cry, easily hurt side. I do relate to this type and perhaps that is why I was disappointed in them. Generally I don't read about women who seem so normal. However, I also get that this series focused on the men and their caveman attitudes (super alpha male) towards their women. I'm hopeful in the follow on series that the women show a bit more backbone and remind everyone that they are intelligent with minds and opinions of their own. Given that Becky seems to be a take charge type of woman, I doubt that her sons would all want submissive wives.

These relationships move fast, and the shorter length (I think? there's no page numbers on my Kindle lol) of the stories keep the pace moving, and I found myself through them rapidly. Like I said, I loved this family, and if you can get past the caveman attitude (which is actually used as a description by the author!!) you'll really enjoy this series.

All of the books in the Outsider Series were great. I had a very hard time even putting the book down. My poor husband didn't get any dinner for two nights or a bed partner until 3:00 am because I couldn't stop reading. I would read at night until my eyelids would no longer stay open. Loraine really makes you feel like your there in her story. I feel like I know everyone, as a matter of fact, I'm still upset with Neal for the way he treated Candy after she lost the baby. I just bought the Walk The Right Road Series and am looking forward to starting it now. I hope she'll keep writing more series books because I'm a forever fan and will read them all.

I just had to keep reading to see what happened . These books pull you into the characters and their lives, very descriptive writing in all aspects, you just need to find out how things turn out for them. Just one thing all the females seem to come from the same very poor needy deprived backgrounds and are always so beautiful that these spunky rich guys can't resist them. But anyway I need to keep reading as I have grown very fond of all the families and what they are doing.

I have four grown sons and I enjoyed this series tremendously. All of my boys are different but all of them have similar traits. They all great their wives similar but different. I love the way you connected Andy, Jed, brad and Neil all together and separate. They all had things to deal with but the had each other for support. Family is everything. Including the parents. Love this and I will read your other series well. A great read I could not put this down.

What a good series. Oh, the characters in these stories were so well developed each with their different quirks and problems. I highly recommend this series if you want a good story that you get so engrossed in that you lose track of time and you want to read the whole series without stopping. Lorhainne Eckhart is one good author.

I cried tears in all of the books, but The Wedding really opened the floodgates! These stories are so real, and I’m so happy that each of the couples sorted out their ‘issues’ Definitely recommend

Boxed set of 9 about the Friessen family.

bk 1 The Forgotten Child... Love this author, her skill at being able to put pen to paper and get her story written with all the emotions and tensions required to pull at your heart strings. She got Trevor and his autism so right in the fist book.
bk 2 Hero.... Loved Jed. Diana seem a bit ditzy as a lawyer though. All the same a good read. Hope Emmily brought more jam for Jed when she visited - got to keep him sweet, especially on his honeymoon!!!
bk3 The Search.....Andy finally realises what a mess hes made of his life trying to please his father and do his dirty work. His life needs changing.
bk 4 The Awakening.....Andy finally wakes up to see what his family are like. With parents like Any has, who needs enemies? This story left me feeling more annoyed than happy. Such an injustice - The parents, the Judge, the social workers and those foster parents, not to mention the senator - Can you see steam coming out of my ears as I type this?
bk 5 Secrets.....An emotional roller coaster. Well written. Brought tears to my eyes in places. Andy helps Jed and Diana, the only family he want to be associated with. He now has his own wife, and has to sort out his own life to be able to have a good future.
bk 6 Runaway... Andy and Laura are having problems within their marriage. Once she leaves him, she finds out she carrying twins. Her m-in-l is such a bitch, and plots to have the twins taken away from Laura. Once Andy finds out, he decides the fate of them all. A roller coaster of a read.
bk 7 Overdue......The family give Andy support once they know whats been hatched by Andys mother. Diana, Jeds wife, lawyer and mother is over due with the birth to their second child... complications.
bk 8 The Unexpected Storm.... Neil and Candys storyline, the brother who everything he touches turns to gold, Meets the girl of his dreams, but shes not sure that he likes her for herself or for the prime land she owns, as he wants to build a luxury resort on it.
bk 9 The Wedding.......This family certainly have had their fair share of drama.. a sad read, but like all families they come to terms with events and move on

I have truly enjoyed this boxed set even though I have needed a huge box of tissues.
The story moves onto another series called the Friessens - New Beginnings.

I'm so glad I read these from the complete collection, I almost never buy short stories and to get full enjoyment you need to read every wonderful word & I lapped it all up. You have stories of 3 brothers & their cousin, plus the 4 women they fall in love with. Sort of predictable but plenty of good storyline to keep you reading. I got cross when I had to stop reading to work & if you like romance books that have a bit of oomph you'll be the same, buy, read and enjoy, I certainly did. I also bought Walk The Right Road Series also by Lorhainne before writing this review. Keep up the good work, looking forward to The Friessens: A New Beginning.
