I never read a book with more sex than this one. I think for the first 192 pages it was nothing but pure sex! You may need to take a cold shower after reading this book.
This is a well written book, by a talented author. The strength of this book are the characterizations; very well done. The plot is menage, the main characters are well drawn and likable.
**Spoiler Alert** Just when I got all attached to the menage and appears to be working for everybody, the author totally chickened out...tossed somebody out of the menage (which she spent the entire book building), and ends it a traditional m/f white picket fence HEA. This is the biggest reason I'm unsure about reading this author again.

Whew! Anyone reading this book better bring a cooling fan, it is HOT, HOT, HOT! Definitely not for the faint of heart. If you are ready to face that hidden fantasy of two men, you are in for a very passionate ride. I fell for Deke in the first book Wicked Ties, and I still like him. Kimber is an independent smart strong character who is easily likable. It's a complicated story, issues and baggage for everyone, but Black writes another winner. My only complaint is that I feel the ending, the final scene, was a little sappy and weak. But it was probably hard to top the intensity that was present in the entire book. That aside, I enjoyed every word. Black's characters are great and I can't wait to read Luc's story.

I'm not sure what the best way is for me to talk about this book. I'm no prude--I read romance and erotica, and I like my fair share of both--but I found myself practically laughing throughout this book. There was just something about the main female character, Kimber, that was so unattractively damsel-in-distress-ish that I didn't care at all what happened to her. The two males, Luc and Deke, I found to be too similar and unrealistically MALE. Fine enough if you like wish fulfillment and dream-come-true romantic endings, but I was ambivalent at the end of this.

i was VERY impressed with this book. I couldn't put it down once i started it. This was the first time i had read anything by this author and i liked it, I will be reading more from her. the Middle part of the book lost me for a bit then i kept on reading.

If you are looking for hot and steamy this is the book to read. Tons of m/f/m with a plot a decent story but a let down ending. Would have like to see it go the way most of the book went. It did keep my interest until the bomber was reveled. Hugh disapointment, not very well thought out. I guess I was expecting more. If you are just looking for a great way to read away the day with great sex thrown in this is a book not to miss.

I really tried to like this book but didn't. The characters has no redeeming qualities and it was hard to care about them. But if you just want a book with a lot of well written sex - this is a good book.

hot, hot, hot....what else to say???
Loved the series.
Good Steamy read about Menages'.
Hot!!!! Story line starts out a little weak but picks up early on in the book. Loved the chemistry between the characters.
I really liked this book it kept me on the edge
Although the beginning was slightly difficult to believe (how excruciatingly naive the female character was written!), it did get better. I'm not a fan of menage stories, but the story did have an interesting twist at the end. Predictable, but then again, who's really reading this for the actual story???
This story is about a virgin, Kimber Edington, the only girl of a family of men and Deke Trenton, her fathers ex-bodyguard. Kimber has had a crush on Deke since she was a teenager. Deke has been hot for Kimber since she was 17. He stopped being her fathers bodyguard after her father saw the lust in his eyes. So why is she now in his home. Oh yea, she's here to learn all the ways to pleasure a man, that man being Jesse McCall the pop star. A man she's known since her teens. She's ready to take their love to next level. Only Jesse has a thing for threesomes and so she's their to learn from Deke and his cousin, Luc, how to pleasure two men.
It only takes one night to realize that her love for Jesse McCall is just friendship and that the way Deke makes her feel is what's she's been looking for. Still Deke has skeletons in his closet that keep him from claiming her for himself and by himself without Luc. He uses his cousin, Luc, as a crutch and can't seem to let go of the past.
How can a virgin seeking happily-ever-after with a bold, brash and harsh man like Deke. She has to break down his walls, and make him look past his imagine of her as only an innocent beauty.

I really enjoyed the start of this book and had high hopes of loving it. Somewhere in the middle it lost me and was awhile before I picked it back up to finish it. I'm glad I did though. All in all, not bad, but also not my fave. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. The main character in the next book was my fave character in this book.
Ms. Black's stories are always good and her characters well drawn and articulate. The sex is HOT, HOT, HOT!
