Summary
I was supposed to have it all。
I’d been Prom Queen， Cheer Captain - high school’s most savage Queen Bee。 I could have everything I wanted。
Except them。 The freaks， the weirdos， the school’s ultimate losers: Manson， Jason， Lucas， and Vincent。 Our hatred for each other couldn’t keep us apart， not even when my own mistake got Manson expelled and made me the ultimate villain to the rest of them。
One night was supposed to be enough。
I couldn’t resist forever。 For one night I gave myself over to the men I wasn’t supposed to want and satisfied the darkest parts of my soul。 But some things are meant to stay in the dark。 One night， and it was over。
Nothing more than a game。
Now， with college behind me， our worlds collide yet again。 Four men， all willing to share me as their plaything until my debt to them is paid。 Another game to satiate my dark cravings， the twisted rules of which bring us all even closer than before。 But games aren’t meant to last。
When the debt is paid and the game is done， what if I don’t want to walk away？
Although not required， it is recommended to read the novella， The Dare， prior to reading Losers。
This book is First Person， Multi POV。
This is an 18+ polyamorous bisexual romance between one woman and four men， including MF， MM， and group scenes。 Reader discretion is strongly advised， this is a dark read。 This book contains graphic sexual scenes， intense scenes of BDSM， graphic violence， and strong language。 A full content note can be found in the front matter of the book。

DNFI just couldn't continue it-- I don't know if it was just me but I felt like it was just bland like I wanted something more to it; something was missing and I don't know what。 It could be that it's just not for me。 Guess I'll have to find a different RH book。 DNFI just couldn't continue it-- I don't know if it was just me but I felt like it was just bland like I wanted something more to it; something was missing and I don't know what。 It could be that it's just not for me。 Guess I'll have to find a different RH book。 。。。more

WHEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW。 All of the fire emojis。 My kindred book spirit recommended this to me and I was all。about。it。 It is dark and STEAMY and there isn't a ton of character development but it's also sweet and the idea of the alternative family is always something I appreciate。 I am ready for the second installment and more of this group of misfits finding their way。 WHEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW。 All of the fire emojis。 My kindred book spirit recommended this to me and I was all。about。it。 It is dark and STEAMY and there isn't a ton of character development but it's also sweet and the idea of the alternative family is always something I appreciate。 I am ready for the second installment and more of this group of misfits finding their way。 。。。more

This is it。 This is how you do a “why choose”。 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻I was so worried this was going to be you typical one woman and four men， RH situation。 I don’t like those。 I want more feelings， and I want them between all of the characters for one another， and not just from all the men toward one woman。 This？ Losers DELIVERS。 The love Manson， Lucas， Vincent， and Jason have for one another is truly something else。 They love each other to different degrees， and you have your main “pairings” between them， but This is it。 This is how you do a “why choose”。 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻I was so worried this was going to be you typical one woman and four men， RH situation。 I don’t like those。 I want more feelings， and I want them between all of the characters for one another， and not just from all the men toward one woman。 This？ Losers DELIVERS。 The love Manson， Lucas， Vincent， and Jason have for one another is truly something else。 They love each other to different degrees， and you have your main “pairings” between them， but they all truly love and would do anything for one another。 And I love that the addition of Jessica isn’t just adding a woman to their dynamic because they need a woman to have sex with。 She adds to their relationship but she isn’t the sole focus of it。 I loved seeing the relationship develop between Jess and each of the men， and seeing them interact with each other as well。 It was such a great balance。 I also loved the flashbacks to moments from high school that Jess had with each of them。 This book truly needed all 577 pages to start to develop the relationships amongst these characters。 I can’t think of anything I’d take out （though I cannot stand Manson’s dad or Jess’ mom and I feel like they’re both going to cause issues）。 I also think this needs a part 2 to continue their growth as individuals and in their relationship。 I want the solid footing， HEA at the end of this and I cannot wait to read the rest of this when it comes out。 5⭐️ 。。。more

I’ve been trying to think of the right words to use in my review but I realized no word in the english vocabulary could explain how in love I am with these characters and their world。

10/5⭐️ 5/5🌶 We have unpacking to do。 Let me start this off by saying that I personally resonated with a lot of aspects in this book。 It’s completely character driven and leads to what I think will be a plot heavy book in part 2。 Although it’s character driven， there’s an underlying message to the story that I personally love and try my hardest to spread in my every day life。 It’s the message to be and accept your true self and not give a shit what people think about you。 So often， people conform 10/5⭐️ 5/5🌶 We have unpacking to do。 Let me start this off by saying that I personally resonated with a lot of aspects in this book。 It’s completely character driven and leads to what I think will be a plot heavy book in part 2。 Although it’s character driven， there’s an underlying message to the story that I personally love and try my hardest to spread in my every day life。 It’s the message to be and accept your true self and not give a shit what people think about you。 So often， people conform to societal norms because they’re scared of rejection and retaliation， but if that’s the case， those are not your people。 Love who you want， live how you want， and be unapologetically you。 It’s a lesson I had to learn to live myself。 Harley flawlessly and heartbreakingly captured the real life struggles people go through， both societal outcasts and the social elites。 Internal demons， insecurities， struggles with sexuality a sexual preferences， depression， ptsd…it’s all there。 Now， let’s get into the characters。 As we know Jess is a fricken Queen B Brat， but we know she can’t stay away from these Losers。 Jess falls into old habits that puts her into a rather sticky situation with the guys and the rest is history。 Throughout the book， we hear each character’s story。 Some a little more in depth than others， but we get a good feel as to who they are。 You seriously can’t help but fall in love with this band of degenerates。 And Jess’s character does a complete 180…and it’s written so smoothly， you don’t really know where the turning point is。 I love how this book isn’t your normal why choose as in a groups relationship with 1 other person， but it’s the bonds they all have with each other。 I swear reading Manson and Lucas’s POV at the end had me like…。omg *clutches chest* my heart。 This book is the epitome of real friendship， real love， real acceptance。 Everyone has their own demons they struggle with， but together， they’re a unit that can’t be broken。 Drumroll please…。THE SPICE DEAR WHATEVER GOD OR ENTITY YOU PRAY TO 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Harley killed itttt！！！ I should not have read some of that at work。 It’s is NSFW！ If you like hella hot mega spice， this is it。 Neon flashing lights to look no further because you WILL be hot and bothered。 Also， the tension 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼 Necessities for reading Losers: 🌹， partner， towel， one handed talent， H2O for the goddamn thirst you will experience。 Anywayyy， read this book。 All the stars。 All the chili peppers。 Literally EXTRAORDINARY。 Please， if you’re into Dark Romance， read this book！ Must read The Dare prequel novella first。 Favorite Quotes: “Keep chasing the next sunrise。”Society wanted things to be labeled， to fit into neat and tidy boxes。 Sex was meant to be exclusive， romantic， and flawless。 Friends were only friends and never lovers， nothing could grow or change。 Who you used to be could never be separated from who you’d become。“Aww， does that hurt？ Was that a I’m-having-so-much-fun scream or I’m-in-agony scream？ I couldn’t really tell， let’s hear it again。”And speaking of orgasms…” He pulled me upright， holding me tight against his chest as my bell jingled。 “I wonder how many of them it takes to make you cry？ I guess I’ll have to find out for myself。”“It’s beautiful when you suffer for me。 When you endure because you know it pleases me。 You’re doing well， angel。”Tropes/Kinks:Hardcore BDSMWhy Choose Bisexuality Group scenes Every hole， that’s the goal Spitting Toys Pierced 🍆 Hand necklaces Impact play/spankingKnife playMarking Role play CNCForced OsO denial/Edging Self care 🫴🏼Facials C💦m on command Sq💦rting🍑 play 🧊 C💦m cleanup （🫠）Begging Praise/Degradation ETC…… 。。。more

Overall， this was not my kind of book。 The plot was just so-so， the characters were ok but I couldn't connect with any of them。 I purchased the book knowing it had MM interactions which I have learned I do not like， so that put me off some， but even if I ignore that， I feel the book was too predictable。 It is a to be continued and I will not be purchasing the second book。 Overall， this was not my kind of book。 The plot was just so-so， the characters were ok but I couldn't connect with any of them。 I purchased the book knowing it had MM interactions which I have learned I do not like， so that put me off some， but even if I ignore that， I feel the book was too predictable。 It is a to be continued and I will not be purchasing the second book。 。。。more

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Manson， Jess， and the clown boys always had my heart since I’ve read ‘The Dare’。 The guys always ran together like a well oiled machine。 Jess got the chance to fulfill her hidden dark fantasies， granted they were for a dare。。 but nevertheless， they were fulfilled。 Losers gave a multi-POV which helped you learn about each character to its entirety in their polyamorous and personal worlds。 This book will stick with me forever。 Their relationships with eachother filled my heart with warmt ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Manson， Jess， and the clown boys always had my heart since I’ve read ‘The Dare’。 The guys always ran together like a well oiled machine。 Jess got the chance to fulfill her hidden dark fantasies， granted they were for a dare。。 but nevertheless， they were fulfilled。 Losers gave a multi-POV which helped you learn about each character to its entirety in their polyamorous and personal worlds。 This book will stick with me forever。 Their relationships with eachother filled my heart with warmth and really shows you family is who sticks around and cares for you deeply。 It was great watching Jess tangle herself into this foursome of men and show them things they didn’t see in themselves。 The sex。。 top tier。 I’m part of the BDSM community and safe and consensual is number one， and the clown boys portrayed that perfectly。 Those scenes really get you going 💦 🐱 Subjects / possible TWs include mental illness， trauma， childhood abuse （physical and emotional）， body shaming （by a parent to their adult child）， parental rejection， bullying， instances of homophobia/biphobia， and discussions of suicide。 This book contains graphic sexual scenes， intense sequences of BDSM （This book should not be used as a reference or guide for safe BDSM practices）， graphic violence， and strong language， CNC， degradation and humiliation。（This is NOT a trigger warning but there is MM within this book， and it’s the hottest ever。）________________________________________ 。。。more

Top of my list！！！First off， a review said this was a "short read" and filled with non stop smut。 Well they were wrong。 They were very wrong。 This is one of the best books I've read in this kind of genre and theme。 It's not a reverse harem or RH in the traditional sense。 It's not even traditional which is amazing。 I will pull my personal feelings into this review because the characters are so self aware of what our society believes about mm relationships and multiple partner relationships。 It's s Top of my list！！！First off， a review said this was a "short read" and filled with non stop smut。 Well they were wrong。 They were very wrong。 This is one of the best books I've read in this kind of genre and theme。 It's not a reverse harem or RH in the traditional sense。 It's not even traditional which is amazing。 I will pull my personal feelings into this review because the characters are so self aware of what our society believes about mm relationships and multiple partner relationships。 It's so well written and concise with the feelings of some people who have a polygamous， bisexual，， multiple partners relationships。 I'm very excited to read the lives of various individuals who are growing up in different cultures and families who have given them ideals which are very different。 A young woman who has been the most popular girl in school has had a taste of the darker side of intimacy。 But she cared too much about what people thought until she came back to town and sees everything differently。 She sees the fake friends and men who have been bullies for years。 Nothing has changed except her。 She finally doesn't want to keep putting up a front and living a very shallow life。 Four very different men are together and closer than ever。 They found each other in troubled times and they have a made a future together。 They are intimate with each other and they also deeply crave what Jess has given them once。 Her full submission。 As circumstances happen she finds herself indebted to them。 Her payment will be in service at any time and any place。 She dreams of being in this lifestyle。 It's her biggest longing。 She gets her chance to do this as well as make up for her past mistakes。 Lucas， Vincent， Jason， and Manson are incredible men。 I love reading about them all together。 Very intense bdsm content。 Very hott。 Great mm and mf scenes。 I love this book。 It's amazing。 。。。more
