This was a DNF for me. I was not into the story or plot line at all. I appreciate the opportunity however.
This was a sweet but sexy mmf, the storyline is a little stretched at times but truly an enjoyable read. I enjoyed the dynamics of the characters and the overall story is great. Even though this sexy scenes there is just the right amount of detail to make it hot but not overly written, definitely not raunchy. A couple loose ends were there for me but again overall a great read.
Thank you to NetGalley and Ringmaster Publishing for a copy of this ARC. All thoughts are my own.
The people find themselves brought together as roommates, when their shared attraction sees them developing feelings over time.
Group hug is a spicy MMF romance. I this is the first time I have read a triad/throuple relationship novel. I was curious to see how the tensions would resolve.
On the whole, I found so much of the story felt rushed. Problems came up too quickly, connections deepened too fast, etc. This made it difficult for me to feel the stakes of the story.
This is a quick read and I loved how the dogs played a big part of our Thruples story. I'd definitely read more by this author when I was in the mood for it.
A throuple romance, with lively character development and a pack of dogs plus a little drama. This one was not my usual style of novel. However I did enjoy the book. The author has a nice writing style that makes the story engaging. The ending was a little too cliche which makes this not worthy of all five stars, still a solid four.
What I particularly liked with this one was that it wasn’t just lots of erotic scenes for the sake of it, it had a story with characters you wanted to get to know more. Yes, maybe it was a little convenient how the three all came together but it made for a good read that you get straight into rather than it being drawn out. The bedroom scenes were well written and not just the same scenario over and over like it some erotic books I’ve read. All in all a lovely read.
I loved the meet cute, and had high hopes for the throuple, but the story fell flat for me. Where I was expecting drama, it was easily solved - which was disappointing. Overall, it was an ok story, but it wasn't my fave
This was a quick read with lots of spice, but the book felt like it was more crisis porn and forced alone scenarios at times than an actual cohesive book. I wanted to like the book as I enjoy MMF books, but this one just wasn’t it for me. Others may enjoy it if you like a bunch of weird and random (and unlikely) scenarios to occur in your books that offer very little to the plot in general.
Take three intelligent, talented, successful, beautiful people and put them together as roommates and the close proximity and insta-love feelings they all feel are going to bubble up and over! Lots of steam between the two men and one woman that goes in all directions so make sure you are up for an adventure when you select this book to read! On the surface, you could just dismiss this book at a glance as pure hot, hot, hot steam, but you would be doing yourself and the book a disservice. There is a complicated plot at play here with neglected childhood's, stalker ex's, cougar professors and so much more that makes this story much meatier than you would originally expect. It was a fun read for the steam, but also for an engaging plot. I'm quite excited to hear that there will be more coming from these characters and the people who surround them. This was a good story and I will definitely be looking for more from this author!
The great writing and descriptive characters pleasantly surprised me. I enjoyed the storyline and thought the dialogue was realistic and fun. A great sexy read! Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.
Weston, Callum and Petra move into a house together and end up being roommates and lovers. They develop a tight bond that not even Petra's mother with her troubled past can destroy. As Petra digs into her own past she reunites with someone who strengthens and reinforces new family bonds between herself, Weston and Callum. Such an unusual, erotic, beautiful love story. Huge thanks to NetGalley for this Advanced Reader Copy.
Group Hug
By Ariella Talix
I received a copy of this ARC from Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op in exchange for a voluntary review.
This was a wonderful funny, steamy and a second chance for Petra to reconnect with the dad she never knew. The relationship between all three main characters Weston, Petra and Callum plus the dogs was fantastic. All in all it was a fantastic book and well worth the 5 stars I've given it.
A good, fun MMF book with interesting characters. It doesn't take long to get into the throuple scenario, in fact, that bit was a bit too fast for me although it did give more space for the relationship to develop. There were some good twists and overall it was a bit of a fairytale but a good, steamy one!
As someone who is polyamorous, I’m all for a good throuple… but this just didn’t do it for me. Everything, and I mean everything felt so rushed. Just as the spice gets to going, it was over. Story felt like it should have been the primary focus but while trying to be angsty, felt rushed to give a happy ending. All in all, I’m disappointed to not have liked this story more.
I really wanted to love this because I love a good why choose trope. This just didn’t hit for me. The writing is choppy and disjointed, and the characters are flat and two dimensional. There was an attempt at some angst, but it was resolved so quickly that it just fell short. That was pretty much the theme for the entire book: it just fell short.
I wasn't sure if I could get into it, a hundred percent but, I did. I'm glad I did. I give it a 4.75 🌟.
The throuple was amazingly adorable. The twist with the parents was unexpected, the turn around with them was amazing and I loved that they had a H.E.A. I'm glad that I got to read this books before it published on my 10 year anniversary with my husband.
Would for sure recommend for a short-ish sweet and spicy book.
I loved also, that the throuple didn't take almost half of the book to before they got together.
Chef's kiss to Callum! Yum, (You'll know what I mean when you read it).
I just found this book outstanding. It's romantic and steamy, suspenseful and heartwarming. The characters are all well-delineated and real, and their relationship might be tricky at times but it still manages to capture your heart.
The plot has some fun twists and turns and will keep you guessing, and the dogs are a great addition to the story. I loved how each of the characters is sympathetic for their own reasons, and I'd love to know more about one of the characters introduced toward the end (I'm not giving a spoiler!).
I'm an admitted die-hard fan of this author's MMF books, and she's done it again with a great one this time. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. These opinions are my own and I'm happy to give them.
This was such a good book. It was one of the best MMF books I have read. I truly loved the 3 main characters. This book had so many twists and turns I did not see coming. I loved how each of the characters brought different things into the group. They each had their own struggles and was able to overcome them together. Such a great read.
