The overall idea and storyline was enjoyable, but it seemed to swing from all action, wether bedroom or other, to nothing of importance happening.
Filler is a killer as far as I’m concerned and it felt like pages of it at times.
Steamy scenes were quite good, but passion was lacking so was depth in the characters and chemistry.
It had so much promise in the plotting, it just didn’t deliver for me.
I wish I could give a better review but for me it was just ok .
I received an Arc copy of this book and chose to post this review
I read my first Talix book back in August 2020. I will say that these are the better written erotica books I have read. There is some semblance of a plot and attempt at character development outside the bedroom. I maintain that the spicy scenes are on point and the best written of the erotica I've read. I love that the story doesn't have an insane amount of pet name vomit everywhere. It makes it way less cringe.
I have the same feelings towards this one as I did The Rule of 3. I did not like the inconsistent pacing and time jumps. Although there is some development of the characters to make them seem more than just objects that wanna hump each other, it's still not enough for me to really connect with them or want to root for them. The events in this definitely were hard for me to suspend my disbelief and enjoy outside of the bedroom. I will also say that had I not read the other book, I may have also rated this story 3 stars, but I felt there was a formula being followed with the wealth and status, guy best friends, and instalove. It felt too similar to the other story.
This book is a quick read. It's enjoyable so don't think that I hated it. It's definitely a good palate cleanser :)

Rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Review: just Curious is an erotic romance novel featuring a throuple in a committed polyamorous relationship. It follows Willa, Jackson and Casey as they embark on this exploration together. I really like that the plot to smut ratio was well done, and all came to a satisfying conclusion. A fun, steamy read with lots of drama!
Just Curious by Ariella Talix. A new to me author that I'll check out more books by.
A very spicy storyline that has a little of everything and a lot of steam.
This was such a great read! I was so curious about 'Just Curious" and it did not disappoint.
Willa, Jackson and Casey are involved in a triad relationship. I really loved the character of Willa, who overcame a difficult past to be a bold and strong woman not afraid to go after what she wants out of life. The characters are well written and their personalities well developed over the course of the book. There is a fun mystery subplot that helps to solidify the triad relationship. This book delves into an emotional and sexual relationship involving three very different people, with very different personalities, who at the end of the day just want to be committed to each other in a loving and healthy relationship.
MMF
The premise was good and the story arc was very well thought out however there wasn’t any depth with the characters. I found it very hard to believe the characters & their chemistry with each other. The steamy scenes were ok & would have been more intense if the characters were able to be developed more. I think because there was so much to cover in the whole story some elements were lost.
Thank you to Netgalley & publisher for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for a honest review.
This MMF book was a very steamy read that was well written with characters that were so well defined that the interaction and chemistry between Willa, Jackson and Casey kept me totally enthralled throughout the entire book!
Just Curious is a mix of romance and suspense that kept my interest from the first page to the very end. There is plenty of heat and lots of adventure for these three lovable characters. It's not easy to put this book down- especially the second half. Wow!
Willa has a tragic background, but it hasn't kept her from being ready to take on the world. She is sexy and bold. I like that in a FMC. Jackson is adorably protective and richer than he knows what to do with, though he gradually figures that part out. His best friend Casey is a hoot. Put them all together and you have one really fun story! They are all wonderful, smart, and creative characters.
I highly recommend this book.
What a fun, exciting story to read.
A menage, that develops, with true feelings of love and commitment, with the story of a writer who has not one, but two manuscripts stolen. Along with the malicious intrusion and deceit, that is aimed at her and her billionaire tech boyfriend and the art designer boyfriend in their triad relationship.
They are challenged by the stealing fake agent and her nerdy computer hacking boyfriend who has aided her. This adds a bit of mystery and intrigue, before they are both investigated and sentenced to a long and extensive jail term.
With a happy ever after ending, in this romantic story of love, commitment, happiness, family and babies for the most wonderful, joyous future they can share together.
Well I was just curious enough to read, Just Curious. I'm glad that I did. The story flowed smoothly. I liked how everything was wrapped up in the end.
