Always liked DragonsDifferent sort of fairy tale。 Very edgy。 What is not to like being with two strong, handsome Scotsman that give such commanding performances and are Dragons no less。 Where one door closed a better one opens!

Aly,
This is a steamy short story that jumps right into the action。 There are dragons, drama, and lots of bedroom scenes。 I liked that the relationship started with Lachlan and Alec as a couple who then took Chloe as their third。 This is definitely a ménage and it was nice seeing the men have a loving relationship with each other。 Some of the drama was a bit ridiculous and just there to fill in the plot。 I did like the dragons and mate parts, and the author did a great job with the passion。 I wish th This is a steamy short story that jumps right into the action。 There are dragons, drama, and lots of bedroom scenes。 I liked that the relationship started with Lachlan and Alec as a couple who then took Chloe as their third。 This is definitely a ménage and it was nice seeing the men have a loving relationship with each other。 Some of the drama was a bit ridiculous and just there to fill in the plot。 I did like the dragons and mate parts, and the author did a great job with the passion。 I wish this were longer so it could have developed the characters more, maybe given us some glimpses of the men's pasts。 。。。more

Mary,
This is a fun read with some MMF action and MFM action。 Chole is the assistant to Lachlan and Alec。 These gentlemen own a large hedge fund company。 They invite her to come on a trip to Scotland with them。 While at the airport she witnesses her boyfriend cheating on her。 This just sets the stage for what she thinks will be a horrible trip。 Little does she know her bosses have had their eye on her since she started with them。 This is such a good read with passion, dragons shifters and fated mates。 This is a fun read with some MMF action and MFM action。 Chole is the assistant to Lachlan and Alec。 These gentlemen own a large hedge fund company。 They invite her to come on a trip to Scotland with them。 While at the airport she witnesses her boyfriend cheating on her。 This just sets the stage for what she thinks will be a horrible trip。 Little does she know her bosses have had their eye on her since she started with them。 This is such a good read with passion, dragons shifters and fated mates。 I love the characters!!! 。。。more

This was a book of first's for me, not just reading something from a new author but also my first PNR featuring MMF。I thoroughly enjoyed it, so much so I didn't put it down from start to finish。 The storyline may be familiar but the context was written so well I forgot about familiarity and enjoyed each chapter as something completely new。 The sex scenes were HOT and well written。I will recommend this to any of my PNR readers in my book groups。I received an advance review copy from booksirens fo This was a book of first's for me, not just reading something from a new author but also my first PNR featuring MMF。I thoroughly enjoyed it, so much so I didn't put it down from start to finish。 The storyline may be familiar but the context was written so well I forgot about familiarity and enjoyed each chapter as something completely new。 The sex scenes were HOT and well written。I will recommend this to any of my PNR readers in my book groups。I received an advance review copy from booksirens for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily。 。。。more

So, overall a very interesting read。I forgot the premise of the book when I began reading it, so I was intrigued, then surprised, then surprised again。 Then I reread the blurb and laughed at myself for misunderstanding what I was reading so much at first。 But in a good way。So our FMC is heading overseas for a work related outing just a few short but important weeks before her wedding。 On the way out she catches her fiancé with a coworker in a compromising position。 She is, of course, devastated。 So, overall a very interesting read。I forgot the premise of the book when I began reading it, so I was intrigued, then surprised, then surprised again。 Then I reread the blurb and laughed at myself for misunderstanding what I was reading so much at first。 But in a good way。So our FMC is heading overseas for a work related outing just a few short but important weeks before her wedding。 On the way out she catches her fiancé with a coworker in a compromising position。 She is, of course, devastated。 Her bosses sweep her away from him and onto the plane very quickly, and the story starts, really, from there。 What went before is just set up, basically。 Important, but not really part of the story。Really the part of the whole thing that bothered me the most is that the men took her on this trip to potentially have sex with her because they were fascinated with her, and they wanted to clear up whether she was their mate or not。 Okay, so events conspired so that it wasn't really in question whether they'd have sex while she was in a relationship with Original Jerk Fiancé or not, so ultimately it doesn't matter? She was wildly in lust with the both of them while planning to get married, so it was mutual。 If they had talked her around to the idea it wouldn't have been… a forced anything。 But she would probably have not told the fiancé, so that would have been not ideal。 Plus the had sex with her while she was willing, but compromised due to her being in a very emotionally charged state, but then also made her think that was a dream? Just not a stellar situation overall。 Plus I'm not sure if the original intent of the couple had happened, were they planning on making her forget afterwards, or just letting her go back to the then fiancé to go through with the wedding without telling him? All food for thought, and of course not really a problem because it isn't what ended up happening, and I hear a few of you yelling at me that if it isn't what happened it doesn't really matter。 Except that isn't true。 They planned some messed up stuff, and maybe it shouldn't, but it does make me thing less of them。 Of course, they also admitted that in the past their race of people had done some other messed up stuff but had learned better, so really I can let it go。 But it is still wrong, and if that sort of stuff is upsetting to you, potential reader, then I suggest you pass this one over。In the end I quite enjoyed this book。 I am going to be checking out what else this author has written。 Hopefully with less potential cheating and lying involved, but I'm willing to give this the benefit of what doubt was written into the text。 It was good。I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily。 。。。more

What is their business? Once they all become an item it seems that the business is now a secondary thought? There are loads more questions, but you get the general idea。I wish more time was spent on developing the story and less time on the sexy parts。 There are some new elements that I hadn’t heard before and it would have been nice to get more in that area。 The warring factions with no rhyme or reason is so overdone that it was a yawn。 Plus the inevitable TSTL moment of the female lead taking off with no regards to her personal safety so that she can be taken by the bad guys for her to be rescued… insert eye roll。There is potential here to really flesh this out and make it something more than just bedroom hijinks。I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily。 。。。more

Reverse harem at its best。 The heat was intense right from the beginning。 Even though Chloe is engaged to be married in a few weeks, just looking at her two Scottish bosses makes her weak in the knees。 But aren’t her bosses gay and she shouldn’t feel that way。 When her life falls apart in the airport they whisk her away to Scotland。 Can’t wait to read the rest in this series。 By the way swords do cross in this story。I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review volunta Reverse harem at its best。 The heat was intense right from the beginning。 Even though Chloe is engaged to be married in a few weeks, just looking at her two Scottish bosses makes her weak in the knees。 But aren’t her bosses gay and she shouldn’t feel that way。 When her life falls apart in the airport they whisk her away to Scotland。 Can’t wait to read the rest in this series。 By the way swords do cross in this story。I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily。 。。。more

Chloe was supposed to be going on a dream vacation with her two managers on an all-expenses-paid trip to Scotland but it had a really bad start - she saw her fiance kissing another woman across the terminal。 It appears he had been cheating on her for a year。 Thankfully she can still go away and lick her wounds with the help of her gorgeous bosses。 Lachlan and Alec have made no secret that they are in a romantic relationship and so she feels confident that they would not be interested in her even Chloe was supposed to be going on a dream vacation with her two managers on an all-expenses-paid trip to Scotland but it had a really bad start - she saw her fiance kissing another woman across the terminal。 It appears he had been cheating on her for a year。 Thankfully she can still go away and lick her wounds with the help of her gorgeous bosses。 Lachlan and Alec have made no secret that they are in a romantic relationship and so she feels confident that they would not be interested in her even though seeing them together does turn her on。 It then becomes clear to her that they actually ARE interested and as they fan the flames between the three of them it becomes clear that they have been hiding the fact that they are also dragon shifters。 Can she handle everything and not get burnt?I really enjoyed this story which focussed on the guys and their relationship plus some on Chloe and the effect that they had on her as well as the revelation as to what they were。 The explanation of the races, their treaties and the potential effect on them was appreciated too。 Some aspects of the story confused me - especially the lack of detail of any more interaction with her mother after the initial call and cancelling things for her wedding。 I did enjoy the patient way that one of the guys was so gentle and yet the other one was so tortured and covered all of the negative sides to things。 I was thrilled when they finally accepted that they all belonged together and sorted that out。 Now I just wonder where the series goes next - maybe different dragon lairds? Easy to read and understand。 Contains explicit sexual content。 This is an MMF book and so it will contain any and all combinations of those three people。 。。。more
