Such a great book for a cozy and spicy evening at home. Imagine being a down-to-earth gal from Texas traveling to Scotland for a quick trip then heading back home to settle into the life you have always dreamed of. That first night there you meet three very different, yet all very intriguing men. Now....add a ton of spice, a good storyline, and you have yourself a winner! Which man would you pick-charming, strong and quiet or intense and loyal? or....why should you have to pick?

This why-choose steamy read offers a fantastic happy-ending and plenty of action between the pages. It's also a short read which matches the narrative perfectly. Too much more and it would have lost the zing.

I really enjoyed this book! It was a good read and provided me with an escape for a couple of hours. Can't wait to read more books by this author in the future,

Making Her Theirs wasn’t really my cup of tea, though I can see how it might appeal to others. It’s definitely packed with steamy scenes and doesn’t hold back on the sexy factor, but for me, it kind of overshadowed everything else. I was hoping for a bit more in terms of character development and plot, but it felt like the story took a backseat to the romance.

The relationships between the characters moved really quickly, and I didn’t get a chance to feel invested in them. I would’ve liked to see more build-up and get to know the characters better before things escalated. The heat is definitely there if that’s what you’re after, but I just didn’t connect with the story on a deeper level.

That said, it’s got a no-regrets vibe, so if you’re in the mood for something purely fun and sexy without worrying about a complex plot, this might be more up your alley. It just didn’t quite hit the mark for me personally.

Quick and easy read with lots and lots of smut
This is a reverse Harlem.
There's not much character development which made it difficult a bit for me to like the characters.
However I enjoyed the smut, it could have used a bit of a build up.
So spicy 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thanks the Publisher and NetGalley for this.

The smut-factor was there in this book for sure…but I didn’t love the story line or characters. The plot and character development both felt rushed so I couldn’t really get into the story

I love a quick spicy read. Recommend it for all the people looking for all spicy and minimal story line. Sometimes you just need it quick and dirty reset and that's exactly what this was for me!

"Making Her Theirs" by Lily Manning is a captivating reverse harem romance that swept me off my feet. Set in the charming city of Edinburgh, it follows Georgia, a dedicated professional who, after a rough start in a new city, encounters the irresistible Knox brothers—Knox, Finn, and Lachlan. Each brother brings something unique to the table: Knox’s protective dominance, Finn’s fun and supportive nature, and Lachlan’s emotional depth.

The chemistry between Georgia and the brothers is electrifying. Manning skillfully balances steamy romance with heartfelt moments, making the characters’ growth and relationships feel authentic. The storyline is engaging, with each brother helping Georgia discover new facets of herself and embrace her desires.

For fans of steamy and emotional romance, "Making Her Theirs" is a must-read. It’s a beautifully written tale of love, self-discovery, and the power of finding the right people who complete you in unexpected ways.

Engaging plotline and characters! Really enjoyed the twists and turns along the way and the multiple viewpoints to tell the story.

Thank you NetGalley and publisher for this ARC.

I really wasn't into this book if I am being honest. Anyone who knows me knows I love a smutty book. But there needs to be some plot and meat and potatoes to it not just sex and sex only.

It was a fast read.

Not for me on this one.

This was a super quick read with a lot of spice! I enjoyed the premise of the book. The main character arrives in Edinburgh for 10 days to cement her place for an upcoming promotion at her job. Luckily for us, while she is there she meets 3 brothers and our reverse harem begins!

I appreciate how quick and easy to read this book was; however, I do wish we got to know the characters a bit more deeply & the plot was slightly more realistic. But overall it was an enjoyable read!

Please, everyone, say it with me. We cannot, and should not, be writing characters that are "in love" in ten days flat. That is asinine, and we must stop it.

Making Her Theirs had a plot, a storyline, and was looking up until we took a turn to smutville. I 100% will ALWAYS read a book with smut in it, and often think that romance novels without smut are a waste of time. HOWEVER, I need some plot with my smut otherwise it's just written porn, and I need even that to be a little believeable.

ALSO:
"Pythagorean to a theorem" this line right here, jail. Straight to jail.

I typically enjoy reading why choose books, but "Making Her Theirs" by Lily Manning did not meet my expectations. The story follows Georgia, who meets three brothers, Knox, Finn, and Lachlan, during her vacation in Edinburgh. The book heavily focuses on sex scenes that are mediocre and lack realism. Overall, I would not recommend this book to others as it fell short in terms of plot and character development.

Thank you NetGalley and Lily Manning for the ebook ARC. All opinions expressed are my own.

Wow - where to start!

When I put my "I believe" cap on, I really enjoy this book. Maybe it's my age, maybe it's my inability to be social, maybe it's something else... I find some of these scenes extremely hard to believe. But that's okay. I enjoyed it anyway. Despite the formulaic style of this writing I did like the ending and the path to the ending.

The writing was fun and entertaining. Learning about the characters was a great ride. I loved the different personalities and could really see how they all came together to make a great "union". I couldn't put this book down once I got started and I told my bookselling friends all about it.

I am so sorry. I read this long ago, before my divorce trauma, so I do not remember it. I do not have access to the book any longer and really do not remember anything about

Thoroughly enjoyed this read.
Some say smut, I say an easy exciting raunchy read .
It’s never going to be a literary great but I would recommend to my more open and adventurous friends

There isn't much to say about this book that hasn't already been said. It's a short read that focuses more on the smut and insta-lust than the plot. For some that may be a deal breaker, while for other readers, it could be exactly what they're looking for.

There are only a couple true issues with the book, one being the author actually develops some plot in the beginning that could have been expanded on upon. This would have made the erotic scenes hit harder. The other issue is that it is a short read but seems almost too long for pure smut. In an era of bite size erotic reads, this novella feels like it should either be longer or shorter.

However, if you're looking for a short reverse harem sparked by insta-lust and carried by smut involving three brother

The book starts off strong, with an interesting plot which lays the groundwork for great character development, and the writing is atmospheric, capturing the mystery and charm of Edinburgh. The issue is how they fall for her INSTANTLY. And to top it off, 70% of the book is just confusingly written smut. And unfortunately, I was unable to look past the whole brothers thing.

Quick, easy, and smutty book! This book got hot and heavy quickly! The story was very detailed with smut. There wasn't a lot of character build-up or plot. For a quick easy read, it keeps your attention. I do wish there were more character and plot details. More to the storyline besides three brothers wanting the same girl would have been nice too.
Thank you, NetGalley, for allowing me to read this book and give my honest review. Thank you, Lily Manning, for writing this book.
