Synopsis:
Meg Sanders enjoyed her wild night with a prince and his bodyguard—but now she’s moving on. She has enough problems without borrowing the kind of trouble Theo brings just by being who he is. But no matter how determined she is to leave that night a fond memory, she hasn’t seen the last of Theo and Galen…

Galen Mikos's life boils down to one goal. Keep Theo alive. But as long as Theo draws breath, he’s a threat to the powers that have taken over Thalania—and anyone they associate with runs the risk of becoming a target, too. Galen will never forgive himself if they let their selfish desire for Meg puts her in danger. But it might already be too late…

Theo Fitzcharles might be an exiled prince, but he doesn’t intend to stay that way. He’s only concerned with one thing—clearing his mother’s name and reinstating himself as Crown Prince of Thalania. There’s no room in that plan for distraction, especially when it makes him forget himself the way Meg does. But after spending one perfect night with her and his best friend, Theo has no intention of leaving her alone.

Even if it damns all three of them in the process.

Enter to win one of TEN (10) eBook copies of FOREVER THEIRS!


I absolutely loved this story. I read it right after reading the novella Theirs for The Night, which was a great introduction to the characters, and the base for the story. While it's not necessary to read the novella first I believe it's a great way to see the history and the chemistry of the characters. From there we jump right into learning all about Galen & Theo and where they are from. We learn why Theo's on the run and what the stakes are for him if he's not successful in finding allies or solving the mystery of how he was banished.

The story develops well with us never knowing if they were going to be betrayed, and by whom. As the story unfolds and more clues are brought to light we start to meet the other characters including the villain and learn some of his motivation.  And the trio are wholly unprepared for how brutal and vicious this man will be.

While we do learn a bit about the parents and the mystery that led to Theo's outing, we are exposed to even more questions about her family and why she did what she did against their advice.  We also learn more about Theo and Galen. As the story progressed Galen's history, & his reason for his loyalty to Theo is exposed and we get more form the silent giant.  The chemistry between the three is smoking with not just the intimacy but the bond they create as they develop as characters and deal with the fallout of other learning that Meg is someone the two men will do anything for.  Meg is a fun, fierce and strong character who needed to learn that asking for help didn't make one weak. She's out of her depths here but wants the men to know she's not here just because of who they are and does her best to keep up with them.

I have to say you don't realize what you are missing until you read a book from another perspective. I have read a lot of erotica books, especially menage because polyamory is my jam.  It wasn't until the end of the story that I realized how refreshing it was to have the two male characters find it completely normal to be sexually attracted to each other and none of them felt like it challenged their masculinity. As I was reading I realized that they never once had that fight of if they belonged together or not because they were men, there were fights for other reasons but their sexuality wasn't the thing and you never realize how much that is repeated in other books until you read a book without it. I get it, some men will have to fight past their ideas they may have grown up with and I understand questioning your sexuality. However, in this novel, it was accepted by everyone as normal and it was so good to see. I know I know this may not happen in the real world, but it's nice to read a story where being bisexual isn't something to hide, to be afraid of or something downgraded as only a by-product of the passion. 

I loved the chemistry, the romance, fun and the adventure of the story. I also loved how much realness was added in, how things that I thought about where brought up and how this novel ended on a cliffhanger. My Gawd I can't wait until December to find out how it all comes out. Will there be a battle against the villain?? Where is Galen's Dad?? What will Theo's little brother thing of his stunt?? Will the people accept Theo's decree?? How will that work on the international stage?? I'm anxious to find out.

Highly recommend and suggest you enter to win to grab a copy for yourself.  The first book should still be free all over the book-buying world.  Don't forget to check out the rest of the tour ladies and gents.

Erotica Book #Review: Theirs For The Night by Katee Roberts .@Katee_Robert #ThalanianDynasty


Book Title: Theirs For The Night (Thalanian Dynasty 0.5)

Synopsis:
Meg Sanders has spent her life playing by the rules—until tonight. It’s her birthday and she’s determined to be a little wild and a whole lot carefree, at least until she has to get back to reality tomorrow. But the last thing she expects is to be seduced on the dance floor by two gorgeous men.

Theo and Galen are each incredibly sexy on their own, and potentially devastating as a pair—and they want her. Meg isn’t down for anything resembling complicated when her life is such a mess, but the two of them win her over with the promise of a night out of her deepest, darkest fantasy—and that they walk the next morning with no strings attached.

After all, anything goes when it’s only for one night…
I absolutely adored this novella, this is a great introduction to the rest of the story arc.  It's a closed triangle romance and I'm so here for it.  (For those who don't know that means that each of the menage participants have a relationship, so the two men are sexually involved with each other and then also each has a relationship with the woman).

We get introduced to Meg who is a struggling college student who is trying not to become the failure those from her town have named her. She's run all the way to NYC to accomplish her goals and she's so close to finishing when she's dealt a financial blow that knocks her back. To help cheer her up a girlfriend suggests they go to the club and she doesn't really feel into it even if it's her birthday. She does go however and that decision makes a huge change in her life and the direction she will take from then on.

We get introduced to Theo and Galen at the club and the chemistry is off the way. Meg wants them but the way her life is going they might not want her. As the story develops and we get a glimpse at the depth of Theo and Galen and their relationship I was hooked. I read the story in less than an hour because I needed to know everything and the cliffhanger??? Why yes I will be reading the next book.

The chemistry between all three was off the charts, and the eroticism of their sex scenes just drew me in. I loved it because they laughed and still had some seriously sexy times.  I can't wait to learn more about the men and their relationship, why they could only have this one night and what Meg is going to do about her situation.

Synopsis:
Victoria is floundering. She's lost her home, her boyfriend, everything... rather than go back to her parents with her tail tucked between her legs, or inconvenience her best friend, she decides to take matters into her own hands.

When she comes across a mating app, Tori thinks she may have just found a way to solve all of her problems, and maybe, just maybe, find love along the way.

A trial period with Mal, the sexy bear shifter who contacted her seems like the answer. But, when she gets there and realizes it's not only Mal she's there to meet, but also his best friend Kai, will this opportunity be more than this human bargained for?

Swipe Right to Mate is the first in a new trilogy by DJ Bryce and Terra Wolf. This is a menage standalone about a desperate woman finding exactly what she needs, where she least expects it.
Shapeshifters and their own version of a dating app?? Yeah, I so wanted to see what this one was about.  It's a quick fun, raunchy romp into a romance that has a paranormal slant to it.  In this world, shifters are out (no mention if vamps exist in this world ) and humans know of their existence. In an attempt to aide the shifters in finding mates from across the globe they created a dating app where shifters post about their mating desires and give the applicants the chance to meet and see if their animals accept the mates.

Having just lost her home to a lying bastard, and being cut off by her family for making choices they don't agree with Victoria figures it couldn't hurt to see what the fuss is about with shifters. After all, everyone knows that they are some of the best lovers, extremely protective and want families, all of which she wants including the loyalty. I was intrigued by the concept and found myself reading this extremely quickly.

The characters were fun to read. Mal and Kai are best friends who raised each other since they were cubs.  They have created for themselves a good job, built an amazing home and now it's time to find a mate.  Mal signs up for the dating app and makes the connection to Victoria and our story unfolds from there. It's interesting to watch the dynamic between the three as they learn to navigate this strange new existence. As they do they share their journey with their friends and start to build a good relationship.  I really loved that each of the men had distinct personalities, and created distinct relationships with Victoria.  The sexy moments between them as single couples and as a menage were amazing, they were very hot moments between Victoria and both Kai and Mal.  There were many sweet moments and a few funny moments not just between the men and Victoria but between the en themselves. I loved seeing their teasing and how comfortable they were together


I loved Tori's friendship with her best friend who is really honest with her about her feelings and about what Tori is about to do. Even though she's worried she still backs her play and helps her when she needs her.  There is a bit of an adventure when the past catches up to Tori in the most unexpected way. It's great to see the community come to her aide the way it did. 
I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series including their friends attempt at the dating app. It's going to be interesting because he's got some ideas that aren't going to hold water for very long.  This was a fun, sexy new concept to shifters finding their mates and I enjoyed it immensely. 

Coming soon in the series...

Synopsis:
Welcome to Noble House, Where Your Passion is Our Pleasure, and Someone is Always Watching…

Hacker Madeline Zane gets off crossing lines. So when she discovers security flaws in the Noble House website, she thinks nothing of showing up at the door of the hybrid fetish club and demanding an audience with the owner. Especially after watching an intense online scene of the notorious Dom bringing a submissive to her knees.

Kochran Duke is weary of always being in control, but meeting Maddy rekindles his pleasure in what had become strictly business. And instead of making him jealous, seeing her submit to his old friend Ezra has him aching for something he didn’t even know he was searching for.

The kind of heartbreak Ezra’s lived through changes a man. Maddy makes him crave a life he thought he’d put behind him for good. Watching her with Kochran only fuels his desires, rousing the caged beast within.

Fortunately at Noble House, virtually any fantasy can become reality.
This was very erotic and romantic, however, it jumped scenes too often giving a disjointed feel at times while reading I would have to skip back a few pages to make sure I didn't miss something. I did find that the overall story was great but there were many things that distracted from the story for me.

I really enjoyed the characters some were well written but more in the vein of telling me instead of showing me why they were great.  Also very little background on Maddie and Ezra and their family.
I really identified with Maddie as she as a nerd who was curious and adventurous enough to go after what she wanted even if it was totally different than she knew.  I loved her description of her computer set-up and her space as that sounds a lot like mine; which made me love her even more. My favorite part of the book was when Maddie found Kochran in the expensive paper supply store and he bought the expensive paper and pen for her.  I really loved that she enjoyed supplies as well, it just made me love her even more.

I did go into this one blind so I wasn't aware of where this story was going & was pleasantly surprised when it went there.  I love it, I enjoyed the story buildup, even if it seemed to move pretty fast.  Time wasn't really discussed so it's encapsulated.  This makes sure that the book would be able to age well but at the same time doesn't ground it in reality.

I did have a few issues with the book because there were moments that were unfinished discussions and scenes that were happening and then we found ourselves in another scene.  I did notice that even though the sex scenes and the scenes between the lovers were off the charts well written, the scenery was lax, and the secondary charters weren't as well written as they could have been.    I would love to see more of the sister's girlfriend and her family.  I would love to learn more about the secondary characters beyond their interactions with the characters in a small scene.  I'm guessing she's leaving space for us to formulate our own idea of how the scenery would look but I like when I'm reading for there to be a good amount of description enough for me to build the scene then I can add in my own ideas.

The story centered more on the lovers learning more about each other and about themselves as they developed beyond friends, boss employee into lovers.  We got the story from all three perspectives, and as the story progressed more from the men than Maddie.  A Warning for those who might need it, there is hot man on man love in this so if that doesn't rock your boat maybe skip this one.

 I found this story to be great, especially for the erotica scenes. Sometimes, however, the author's jumping from scene to scene left much of the story or discussion out and I was left feeling confused or disconnected from the story.  There are questions that aren't answered especially about Kochran's family and his relationship there.  While I know the story is about them as lovers they don't seem to have any attachments outside of this circle, it's almost like they live in a bubble.

I really enjoyed when Kochran challenges his worldview, when he embraced parts of himself he thought he had to hide so that he could be what people wanted from him. I'm glad Maddie decided to challenge them head on when she was introduced to their world. I loved reading Ezra's awakening after his life changed so dramatically.  And their scenes both in the dungeon and in the bedroom were very steamy.

A good hot menage featuring Bisexual Dominant men and their submissive, power exchange, and a lot of hot menage love.
