This M/M/F book has characters dealing with traumatic events that will impact their ability to recover. If they can lean on each other for support then there is hope for an HEA.

Discover a hot read that's part of a series but can be read as a standalone. You will most likely wind up diving into the series because you want more from these characters.

Angel Payne really caught me off guard with this one. Wet was not what I thought it would be but it was a wonderful surprise. Best friends and a woman who brings them both to their knees with supporting characters that are both essential to the story and interesting.
Tait and Kellan are as close as brothers. Unfortunately, they see things a little different. Kellan can't understand what Tait is going through or how to get him to see that there is not much he can do but live with it. He's tried to get him to accept his loss and move on but, the bottom of a bottle is all that Tait can see. Until she comes into their lives. Tait thinks he's seeing a ghost. Kellen just sees a goddess.
Hokulani has enough problems. The last thing that she needs is two grown men wreaking more havoc in her life. Raising Leo, her teen-age brother, having Benson still trying everything in his power to get his hands on Hale Anelas, trying to make ends meet and now this. Two gorgeous men from Franz's unit stepping in and fighting her battles. But, the biggest thing she can't get over is how attracted she is to both of them. It may be time for a little Lani fun but, they're best friends, how does she chose? As the choice is made for her, her heart also reaches out to the other. As both of their intentions are made perfectly clear, maybe her fantasies can come true. But, she still has her original problem and now, there are even more problems with Leo and with the real reason why Benson wants her problem.
As the truth comes out and Kellan and Tait takes things to the next level, she has to come to terms with her feelings. She also has to explain to both of them what she has been going through, what has been going on in her head for the past few months. She also has to trust Hale Anelas to the two men who she has grown to love and respect.
I was really interested in this story from beginning to end. Angel Payne made it fun and intriguing … an interesting combination. In fact, I laughed out loud within the first 5 minutes of reading Wet … Hokulani was just perfect. Then, things started getting serious. I was surprised with the all the twists and turns in the story and how it was all solved. With surprise characters and a wonderful happily-ever-after that was even a bigger surprise, I was thrilled that I read Wet.

Love love love this author. Any book I read is amazing. This did not disappoint. Such a great story. Would recommend this to anyone who is a fan of a great story!

Wet is the fifth book in the honor bound series. Like the other books in the series it definitely did not disappoint.

Tait Bommer is sexy, thrilling and emotionally perched on the edge of a cliff. Forced to take two weeks of mandated R&R he and his best friend Kellan Rush are relaxing on an island when the unexpected happens. Lani Kail a sexy, strong and sassy siren that is protecting her little brother and her land.

I definitely recommend this series.

Honor Bound #5
Angel Payne
4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another good one by Angel Payne. I have t read all of the books in this series but the ones I have were really good.
She does a great job writing in order to keep your attention from beginning to end. She adds a little suspense in with her BDSM romance in this one. And also she adds in a threesome to this story which was a nice turn of events.

T-Bomb, Tait Bommer’s call-sign, has never described him more accurately. A loose cannon with a penchant for pissing people off, he’s now responsible for a major screw-up during the First Special Forces Group’s most recent mission. His mess has earned him two weeks of mandated R&R on the shores of Kauai, where the ultimatum is clear—straighten up and fly right, or don’t return to active duty. But he’s such a train wreck that even his best friend, Kellan Rush, isn’t happy about having to pull babysitting duty.

When their “vacation” is interrupted by a stranger bearing nothing but a glare, a Bowie knife, and a lot of curves in a tiny bikini, they wonder if the trip hasn’t been hijacked by island spirits. Surely they’ve found a goddess in this dark-haired beauty who not only sees their emotional scars but opens their spirits by exposing her own soul.
“Therapy” takes on new meaning when illicit desires become explosive passion…and their goddess’s sweet submission. Neither man wants to leave the island paradise, a torment that’s intensified when an old adversary threatens to steal their goddess—and rip their friendship apart.

Will Tait and Kellan let jealousy triumph? Or will they unite as brothers at arms for the most important mission of their lives in the name of the greatest cause of all—saving the woman they love?

Thanks NetGalley for the arc in exchange for my honest review.

Payne has written a great storyline with Wet. It has terrific characters and details. Can't wait for the next one...

HOLY CRAP!!! HOT!!!!!!!!!!!

This book was just amazing!!! The opening of the book had me dying in laughter just picturing Lani taking both men's shorts as she led them through the woods back to her home only to discover they weren't who she thought they were. The chemistry between them is amazing, from the beginning of the book it's clear Lani has a connection with both men individually.

Both men who come with their own back stories, especially Tait who is still nursing a broken heart after the death of a woman he started to fall in love with after a mission went south. His best friend Kellan was sent to baby sit him while he gets his act together, isn't happy about it but at the same time is willing to do anything to get his best friend back.

The chemistry quickly increases just as the danger and risk became apparent. Not only is Lani struggling with raising her teenage brother, but she's facing an uphill battle against a very rich and powerful man who wants to buy her parent's home and land. Kellan and Tait refuse to stand by and watch Lani lose everything.

I loved the intimacy between each couple as well as the trio when they were together. The friendship between Tait and Kellan was something that very few people ever experience. They are so intuned with each other it's like they know what the other is thinking at all times. My only complaint is, that I would have loved to see their relationship progress as the trio became a trio. With as close as those two were, I could easily see them taking things to the next level in the bedroom with Lani.

The only thing holding me back from giving this book 5 stars was Luna. While I think her role was necessary as part of Tait's story, the whole psychic connection with Lani was just a little too much for me.

Wet is the fifth title in the Honor Bound series, but only the second one I've read, and this novel was a far better, far hotter, and far more exciting novel than the first, and I'm happy to give it a 5-star rating.

In this novel, the title of which aptly describes the condition you'll be in while reading this story, two Special Forces sergeants, Tait Bommer and his brother-in-arms, Kellen Rush, who is his brother in spirit as well as his best friend, are on the island of Kauai, sent there for R&R after a mission they were on went went south. Tait had messed up badly, primarily because his head hadn't been in the game after he lost the love of his life, Luna, when another earlier op went bad. After a night of heavy drinking, the heroine, Lani, finds them slugging it out on her beach, and the two men are spellbound by her beauty, especially Tait, because she so resembles his lost love.

Lani is doing her best to deal with the two hunky and gorgeous but intoxicated men while also trying to deal with the man who wants to buy her island home out from under her and turn it into a time-share resort, and he doesn't seem to care what he has to do to get Lani to sign the papers making her home his. When he shows up with a number of his goons to force the issue, Tait rises to the bait and another fight begins, Tait getting the worst of it, and then passing out her sofa. Kellan, who is also attracted to the stunning and sassy Lani, is already planning to act on his desire for her, and already committed to helping Lani and her younger brother, Leo, keep their home. There are darker forces at play in the land-grab scenario, which I won't spoil for you.

There is a lot more to his story than first meets the eye, it's well-written, and, quite frankly, I couldn't put it down. The relationship between the three principle characters is scorchingly hot, and definitely for mature readers only, since they include graphic sex, elements of menage, and BDSM power exchange scenes as well. These scenes are more than merely X-rated, they are deeply emotional and moving, as Tait, Kellan and Lani navigate their way through their own issues, their mutual attraction, their own pain, and their own healing. Even Lani's brother Leo has issues and I loved the thoughtful manner in which they were handled. To top it off, there's also a touch of the paranormal included in a scene or two, one of which brought me to tears.

Wet was an unexpectedly addictive read, and although I would have loved there to be an epilogue, I won't downgrade my rating because it wasn't there. This was, quite simply, an excellent, steamy, and exciting read, and I'll be backtracking to the second through fourth novels in this series I missed, and continue following it as the series moves forward.

I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this novel. The opinions expressed are my own.

This whole series is amazing!! First read for me from Angel Payne and I'm definitely a new fan! Auto one-click author for me from now on!

Tait was really having a difficult time completing his mission when he was still consumed with grief. Forced to take a little vacation with Kellan he slowly begins to heal. Hokulani needs their combined strength to overcome the predatory business tycoon that wants her land. She begins to feel safe for the first time in life since her parents passed away and how to reach her brother and provide the stability they both desperately need before their world continues to fall apart.

I didn't care much for the characters, but overall it was an ok read.

Overall I found "Wet" to be good for the most part. The writing was done quite well. Interesting plot.

Wet is the fifth book in The Honor Bound Series by Angel Payne. This is the story of Tait, Lani, and Kellan. This is another amazing story in a great series!!

Angel Payne does it again. Who knew a story could be so HOT. Tait, Kellan, and Lani take the Honor Bound series to a whole new level.

I was unsure of how I was going to feel about this one as it is unlike anything I have ever read before but Angel did not dissapoint!

Angel definitely writes a story that opens your mind to many different possibilities/situations. It’s fun to learn and grow by seeing all aspects of a lifestyle in this amazing series.

My review is 4.1 stars.

This book is good, it grips you from the starting & never let go the grip ever. The lead characters of the book are completely different personalities, one tough & other soft. The story is very emotional on many occasions. The plot is good and the way author developed a whole story around the plot is good. The pace is justified but on few occasions, I felt the pace is little slow.

The characters of this book are awesome & they are complimenting the story well. The important thing is to reader connecting with the characters well & it happened for me. I felt connected to both the story & the characters.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank publisher & author for providing me with the ARC to read.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. It ran at the perfect tempo with the romantic bits reading enticingly and the exciting parts reading quickly. I felt an affinity with all the characters and empathised with their different characters.
An excellent blend of Romance and adventure story.
I was given this book by NetGalley and the publisher. This is my voluntary and impartial review.

love love this series i dont want it to end and this is a must read series

Hawaii, what a beautiful place for R&R and Angel Payne paints that picture perfectly in Wet. No matter what seems to ail you, that fresh air and the tropical beauty can lull away the worth of worries. Unless, your worries are hobbled by the memories of a lost love. How the hell is a fella supposed to recover from that? Tell me… how!

Wet is the fifth book in the Honor Bound series. Tait and Kellen are dispatched to Kauai for some down time, but as goes with all members of this series, things are never as simple as they seem. Sometimes babysitter really requires hard knocks. Other times, a softer approach works better.

If first impressions are the most important, their first meeting with the neighbor does not go well, yet, her eerily familiar nature and features is startling to them both. Lani is not what people would expect. She is extremely protective of her family and her property and very private. So what happens when these two show up on her beach late in the evening?

Even in the Garden of Eden there was turmoil. In Hawaii, things are no different, except the players wear suits and carry different devices. Thank goodness our guys are trained to be alert as even the players here have secrets.

Being thrust into the middle of a battle is nothing new for Tait and Kellen, but as time continues the goal and prize are more than they ever expected. And for Lani, there are few options other than to accept the help of men she has only just met. Funny thing is, sometimes unexpected meetings can build to be so much more.

Angel Payne, this story will continue to be a classic reread for years to come. Fun, humorous, hot, action filled and wonderful are but a few words I can use for this, but no matter what, I will always give this story 5 stars.

Wet by Angel Payne is the fifth book in the Honor Bound series and was so so good! It can be read as a standalone but since I devoured all five in less than 4 days I highly recommend reading them! Ms. Payne takes you on an incredible ride filled with loss, heartache, friendships, and love.

I had a hard time getting into this book probably because I hadn't read the previous books in the series. If you like erotic romance you'll probably love this book. Red hot --
