Blurb: At fifteen, Troy and Liam were fostered by the same family, and although hating each other at first, they gradually became solid friends. As adults, the two foster brothers live together. Both experience tough times, each being a rock for the other, but their love had never been anything other than brotherly.
That is until they both fall for the same guy, and things get… complicated.
Dalton is fresh out of a ten year marriage. Feeling lost, he concentrates on the only thing he can control—his body. Developing from a chubby, unfit police officer into a lean, mean inked one, Dalton has never looked better, but inside, he’s never felt worse. That is until he meets two men who change his life forever. A relationship is far from his thoughts, and one with another man makes Dalton even more confused. He takes time to get to know Troy and Liam separately, but Manchester isn’t that big, and sparks fly when fate throws the three together.
Together, these three fight it out between them. Both Troy and Liam demand Dalton choose between them, but what if he didn’t have to choose? What if it could work between three?
The things in life worth fighting for are never the easiest, but they’re the ones worth holding onto forever.
Review: Wow, what an amazing ménage story. So much more than a romance, so much more than sex, and entirely full of love between two men who finally find each other after they meet their third. I thoroughly enjoyed learning all about Dalton and his issues, and I was happy to see him become the catalyst to jump start the ménage, but I was completely in love with Liam and Troy. I loved the history and the love between these two “brothers” and wanted nothing more than for them to get it right.
I completely got the story line between Liam and Troy, and I was all for the Liam and Dalton coupling…that just made so much since, but….I struggled a bit with Dalton and Troy. Liam and Troy had a history and love that no one could compete with or compare to…not even Dalton, at first. But I think Troy and Dalton was too fast, too easy, and a bit unbelievable. But because the rest of the story was so freaking good, I was able to suspend my disbelief and just go with it.
What amazed me was how long it took to get to the real sex…and the amazing part is that I didn’t miss it and didn’t realize it until it actually finally happened. The sexy times were so hot and heavy that it wasn’t needed. The love between these guys so palpable that no matter how they expressed their love it was coated in love and lust so thick that you didn’t need anything more.
What I did want more of was alone time between Liam and Troy, I wanted Liam to make Troy purr….it almost didn’t seem fair that Dalton shared in their sexual beginning, but, it wouldn’t be a true ménage otherwise, so I get it.
Don’t let my hangups sway you from this story. It was simply amazing. The story was complete with real life situations, characters you can believe in, and a detailed history so that you finish honestly believing that you know these guys and you believe they will make it. Ménage may not work for everyone, but for Liam, Troy, and Dalton, it was destiny.
Overall Impression: I loved it
