Firstly, thank you to Netgalley for giving me access to read this novel!

I'll get right to it: this one gets points for being fun but it wasn't for me. This is surprising--I usually don't mind reverse harems and I CERTAINLY don't mind sexy Scottish bros that have open access to alcohol. But the characters here just fell flat for me. This was defintiely a character driven novel (my favorite type) but the character intereractions made very little sense. Each of the male leads had very clearly defined roles but that's pretty much where they stay throughout the novel. It almost felt like changing channels every time a new chapter started--Georgia (our FMC) was a completely different person depending on who she was with and it got to be a little confusing. If she was with Knox, she was suddenly submissive, Finn had her randomly behaving like a Skinemax porn star on the spot, and with Lachlan, she turned into an angsty teenager in love for the first time with no context at all.

I did initially have a little fun giggling at their antics but this one just ended flat for me.

This was just not for me; however, I believe there are a lot of readers who will enjoy this. If you are looking for a book that is , insta lust/love, all spice and no plot, you will love this.

As someone who wants tension and more time to get to know the characters (and for them to get to know each other), it was just missing some key things to work for me. I feel like the men changing for our FMC after their abandonment and intimacy issues from childhood after just seeing her was too much.

Making Her Theirs by Lily Manning is a captivating short story of an intense romance between the main character, Georgia, and three brothers, Knox, Finn, and Lachlan. Although this story is short, it does not lack complex characters with backgrounds many can relate to. The brothers and Georgia have very different backgrounds but overcome their pasts by exploring their love. All three brothers are very different; due to their age differences, they experienced their childhood in different perspectives, leading to different personalities and ways of experiencing life as they grew up. With Georgia being such an open and comforting character, it is no surprise that all three brothers end up falling for her. I would rate Making Her Theirs a 4 out of 5 stars. I quickly fell in love with all these characters but everything happens so fast, it feels like a whirlwind. I wish the story between the four of them was more expansive and drawn out, though I enjoyed reading this in one afternoon. I look forwards to seeing Lily Manning’s other work.

4.5/5 stars

This a fun insta-love, reverse harem romance. It’s cute and fluffy and easy to read. There are some attempts at being deep and it works, but overall, it’s still a nice, super spicy read.

The smut is smutting.

This was honestly 95% smut and thats not really my cup of tea. There was some backstory to the characters which I liked, but this one was really fast phased. If you are wanting mostly smut, this definitely is the book for you.

Lachlan is definitely a guy I would like to get to know tho!

Quick read if you enjoy a reverse harem.

This book was okay, easy read, good spice.I am giving this book 3/5 stars only because there is a lot of characters and no background on them.

„Making her theirs“ is a gift for everyone looking for something to spice up their weekend. It’s dirty, it’s sexy and it holds nothing back. The steamy scenes are obviously the main part of this novel, so if you are looking for a cosy romance, this is not the book for you. However it has its sweet side which I enjoyed too. It was a bit too much „unnecessary“ swearing for me and I would have liked a bit more eloquence in the style itself. Yes, it is an erotic book, but that doesn’t mean, that a sentence can’t have more than five words in it, right? Although, I did like that every character had ist own voice. I might even read the second book if I’m looking for some extra spicy pages.

This was hot. I found myself enjoying every second on this roller coater.

Georgia is so clear in my mind of how she looks and sounds. I've found her to be an interesting character and so cute. Her relationship with the brothers is complicated and very freeing.

Knox is an intricate character. He has a possessive need and controls everything. It's so very interesting to read his POV because his mind is complicated.

Finn is a charming fuck boy and he knows it. But underneath that there's a sensitive and sweet man. I also love how he talks about his younger brother and their closer relationship.

Lachlan is very much closed off from everyone and needed someone to pull him out of his safety cocoon. While the parents neglected his two older brothers, they gave him love. So it broke him when they ran away.

My only gripe with the book is I do wish it was just a bit longer. It didn't need to be war and peace but just a tiny bit more.

Making Her Theirs is a great, short novella if you’re looking for something with a little plot, and a lot of spice.

The story begins with Georgia Henry arriving in Scotland on a work trip. Her apartment rental just happens to be above a popular bar owned by three gorgeous brothers who have their eye on her from the moment she walks into their bar. Things quickly heat up and after ten days of bliss she has to decide what to do with herself and the feelings she’s developed for all of the brothers.

I really hope the author makes her next book longer, with the plot and characters a little more fleshed out. I think that’s the only thing that stopped me from being more invested in the story and characters in this one. From the sneak peek, I think I may enjoy Killian’s story more than Georgias. 👀

This was HOT! I thought this was a really fun read. I had a great time for sure. Would I recommend this to people who are looking for a cute little fluffy romance? Probably not. But I WOULD highly recommend this to someone who is looking for a good freaking time. Fast paced. Little plot. LOTS of smut, girlie this one is for you 🥵

Thank you NetGalley and Lily Manning for this experience! 🔥🔥🔥

I am thankful for the publisher and Netgalley for the arc in exchange for an honest review.

When reading the blurb for the book, I was excited! And when it come time to read, I was pleasantly surprised. This is definitely a fast paced, insta lust, reverse harem situation. And as long as a southern US accent doesn’t throw you off when reading, I’d highly recommend this book for those looking for a quick and fun read. This book has made me want to check out the authors backlist and look forward to reading more by the author.

I love RH, but this just didn't hit it for me.

It has a great start. Girl moves to another country for training and finds a way to entertain herself in the meanwhile... and after that is like the smut took over. You can't see much of character development until the last chapters and the plot was completely abandoned.

Even like that, I love how you write. That's why I gave you 3 stars instead of 2.

i could not put this book down at alll!!! i just had to finish it this book kept me on the edge of my seat literally. This was a good look on reverse harm type of books and i can’t wait for the next book of the series. Each brother gave her what she was missing to make her feel and believe in love and relationships while she also was doing the same for them. This book can be read in one sitting but the scenarios that was explained and she was put in was jaw dropping far from anything else i’ve ever read.

this was my first harem romance novel and i personally am not a huge fan but this was quiet okay (for me). if you’re into smutty, eroctic romance novels then this one is for you. the story had no to little plot, it was so straightforward which made me really uninterested. you can finish this book in one sitting as the book only had total of 135 pages.

If you are looking for a quick spicy read that is definitely what you get here. The sprinkling of plot alongside this was actual interesting and made it seem like more was going, but unfortunately it wasn't explored further which left me with A LOT of unanswered questions.

Making Her Theirs is a short and spicy RH story. The book had little to no plot and no character development.

The first few pages seemed promising and the plot seemed like it could have potential but sadly after that the story went downhill.

liked how the FMC was introduced but didn’t like how the character had no depth, yes she’s good at math but what else? Also didn’t like the insta-love between her and the MMCs.

I’m okay with RH and smut but this book just didn’t work for me. Almost DNF’d after about 60 pages but decided to push through because the book was so short.

Overall the start of the book was promising but the story fell flat after a few pages.

This book might be a good read for someone who just wants a smutty book with no plot or character development.

1,5 stars.

I generally love Why Choose romances, because we tend to get great character development along with spice. But since this book is so short, it leans heavily on smut and Insta-love to make to make it work, which unfortunately missed the mark for me. Don't get me wrong, the spice was hot, but the (non-existent) plot was just not there. I would have loved to see this as a full length novel where the author spent much mire time developing the story and characters, instead of just a 10 day fling turning magically into full blown love and a pregnancy and marriage plot to end it off with.

If you love smut and minimal plot, this book is for you! Totally my jam and I was here for all of it!

The story follows three brothers, all damaged in their own way due to their parent abandoning them. That is until they meet Georgia who walks into the bar they own and all their lives change!

Georgia is in Edinburgh for work and is only staying for a short while where she will then return back home to fulfill her desires and dreams she’s always wanted. She walks into the bar and she first meets sexy, flirty Finn and her live takes a wild ride from there!

Thank you NetGalley and Innes Field LLC for providing me with this ARC.

“Making Her Theirs” by Liliy Manning is a whirlwind reverse harem romance set in Edinburgh, Scotland, where—after a small series of unfortunate events—Texan Georgia Presley Henry finds herself in the arms of Knox, Finn, and Lachlan, three Scottish brothers who know exactly what a woman wants. And like good brothers, they don’t mind sharing during playtime. 😉

This book was SO MUCH FUN. I’ve usually got a good smut-poker face, but some of these scenes had my jaw dropping and my cheeks flushing. Each of the brothers brought a little something different to the table (and to lucky little Georgia), which kept things interesting and the multitude of limbs untangled. The plot also picked up nicely towards the end, giving us a HEA to tie everything up nicely.

Now, I wasn’t sure if I loved the pacing or not. We jumped right into the spice where I would’ve preferred a little more build-up, and there were so many plot points I wish we had been given just a little bit more of. Sometimes the flow of spice to narrative threw me off as well, jumping back and forth between the two in some odd places, but I found this read enjoyable nonetheless.

At the end, we received a little snippet of the next book, which I will totally pick up in the future. All in all, if you love reverse harem and big dudes with sexy accents, I’d definitely tell you to give this one a shot.

First, I would like to thank this wonderful author Lily Manning and netgalley for this ARC opportunity!!

Making Her Theirs is a RH / Why choose storyline which I LOVE. I'm giving this book 3/5 stars due to a part of me wishing there was more plot but the smut and romance is a 5/5 for me. Each character has their traumas and thoughts on love, thoughts on why they should not have love and why they should not be in a relationship - part of me wishes that was more expanded on. I also felt like the plot was very fast and I wish the love story in general had more progression (hopefully that makes sense).

Lily manning is a new indie author and Is just starting out so I just know that it can only go up from here and I really did LOVE reading this book!

Georgia is a math loving, smart, independent business woman who had to take a trip to scotland for a promotion. Little did she know, this trip was going to take her on a ride of fiery passion with 3 brothers. Georgia, Knox, lachlan, and Finn all have one thing in common, they mostly had given up on love and the thought of a soulmate...until fate brings them all together.

If you love smut, romance and RH then this book is for you! It is a very short book that very much gets to the point and for me was a very quick read but man, Georgia and these brothers are HOT. I also cannot wait to read more from Lily Manning!
