The characters are beautifully crafted, each with their own scars and secrets, yet intertwined in a web of raw vulnerability and undeniable chemistry. Ava's determination to break free from her past and rediscover her worth resonates deeply, making her journey incredibly relatable. The dynamic between Ava, Roman, and Logan is electric, igniting a spark that leaps off the pages. Roman's protective nature and Logan's brooding intensity add layers of intrigue, leaving readers eagerly turning the pages to unravel the mysteries surrounding them.
4/5 stars
I absolutely adore the cover for this one and love the concept of the book but unfortunately the writing style just didn't keep me gripped and I DNF'd at 34%
2.5
first of all I want to thank you for this arc And say that this cover is absolutely gorgeous.
I was really excited to read this book, since I never actually read anything with a polyamory romance, but unfortunately, this one didn’t work for me.
This book is really a fast burn and smut focused, which is something that I never tried before, and I guess it’s not my thing, however, I really enjoy the sex positive message that the book has, and I think that if you’re a fast burn girly you’re gonna eat this up.
first off that cover is a chefs kiss! love it! the combo of pink and purple does it for me :)
any who the book itself was great. Kept me entertain. Loved Roman- what can i say I like them tall, dark and tattooed
Story follows Ava, who just got out from toxic relationship (yes her ex is the biggest a-hole ever...). She take a trip and ends up in small, charming little town of Little Greenfield in Canada. She then meets to very fine specimens and we can all guess what happens next :)
This is small town MFM ( why choose) romance with found family, friends to lovers and insta love.
For me it was a fast read. Love d the spicy scenes. loved the cute little town and how the guys were possessive of her. We also got a glimpse of the a** ex bf... So sad that people like that exist in real life .. over all i rate this as 4 Stars.
Book Review 📚
Threw Hearts Hideaway by Luna Day - 4.5/5 ⭐
I absolutely love coming across a book that turns out to be the best book you've read this year. It's a quick, easy, steamy read and I couldn't ask for more.
Day has a beautiful skill for writing steamy books with ease, without it being repetitive and with no plot. I love a steamy book but when there's no plot, I end up skip-reading. However, Day had steam AND plot. It kept me enthralled for hours until I was finished.
The characters were absolutely brilliant. I fell in love with Ava almost immediately and knew she was going to be great in this book. The descriptions behind each and every one of them really opens your imagination. As well as developing, for such a short book, there's no lack of development.
Day has a beautiful way of writing, she keeps you entertained and intrigued throughout the entire book. There is a perfect amount of steam versus plot and the descriptions were absolutely phenomenal.
Thank you to Luna Day and NetGalley for allowing me to read this ARC.
This was a good spicy read with amazing romance. The cover is equally gorgeous, love the combination of pastels!

In this small town, Ava finds herself in need of rescue, and she encounters not just one, but two sexy heroes more than willing to come to her aid. Luna Day's portrayal of Ava's journey is refreshingly authentic, delving into the complexities of recognizing and breaking free from cycles of emotional abuse. Themes of sexual empowerment and healthy communication around desires add layers of depth to the narrative.
"Three Hearts Hideaway" is a short and spicy read, opting for instant heat over a slow burn. While the characters and their emotions may lack some depth at times, the focus is on delivering a steamy, feel-good fantasy rather than strict realism. Luna's MFM why-choose narrative may not always adhere to rational dynamics, but for those seeking a smutty, fluffy escape, this book certainly delivers.
I really enjoyed this book! I'm not usually a fan of insta-love and that's definitely what this book would be considered as, with how fast the characters got together.
This was my first Why Choose book, and I think mostly due to the way it was handled in the book—the amount of communication between everyone and setting boundaries—I'm now a big fan of this trope. (Category? Genre? Whatever it is.)
The only reason I'm not giving this book five stars is because I felt like there was no real big conflict, which is definitely what I'm looking for in a book. There was conflict at the beginning, which was the reason the rest of the book even unfolded, but after that it was pretty smooth sailing.
Another minor things is that I feel like Ava has literally no flaws. Both the guys think she's absolutely perfect, and she doesn't show the reader any of her flaws either, which always takes me out of the book a bit, because nobody is perfect, right?
Still though, the book itself was so good, both the male love interests were incredibly swoon-worthy, and the spice was an absolute ten out of ten, so I'll definitely be recommending this book to everyone who likes a nice spice-filled read!
Ps. Can we take a moment to appreciate this cover? Literally drooling.
Thank you to Netgalley and Victory Editing Netgalley Co-op for the ARC!

Title: Three Hearts Hideaway
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️ 🌶️
This was such a fun and steamy read! This book is heavy on the small town, why choose, instalove vibes so if you’re into that, this is your book! And when I say it’s steamy, I mean it’s STEAMY 🥵🥵🥵. This book was very fast pace with a sweetheart for an FMC and Cinnamon roll/Alphamale for MMC’s. I was invested in their relationship and how they were going to navigate through it. I loved Ava’s strength in getting out of an abusive relationship and her courage to start over in a place where she knew no one. Roman and Logan were great MMC’s and adored Ava instantly which I loved! Looking forward to reading whatever else @lundadaywrites puts out there 🥰
"Who am I to judge? Love is love is love. When we find even a sliver of joy in this world, we need to hold it close to our hearts and let it bloom. We need to feed it and let it flourish. How that looks is different for everyone. You and your men are no different."
Gosh i love the plot. I know it was a cliche start of getting away from life and finding love elsewhere. But the story here is, i love that what she found is self rediscovery and freedom to be who she really is. I know this is too good to be true, but i hope i get this freedom and newfound family and place ans home too. Cause as much as how openminded we are, place and people around you somehow still holds onto old ideals of love and an unconventional one will hold you in fire. But i hope someday we get to be in a world less judging and more open to more ideals of love. Love the book and Roman also, logan and my my, the little town is a dream.💝
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for this eARC of 'Three Hearts Hideaway' by Luna Day.
I want to clarify that MFM isn't really my thing and I probably should have researched this book before reading it because I didn't know that featured in this book - even though the title is probably a dead giveaway. I adored Ava. Honestly, Ava is probably the only reason I'm giving this book a three star. For me, I don't like MFM but I'm not gonna take away points purely for that but I am gonna comment on the two men Ava is in a relationship with. They are SO BLAND. They felt like duplicates of eachother half of the time, I honestly couldn't tell you why Ava was into these men they just felt so cliche and cringe and just nope. Justice for Ava, get better men.
Thank you to Net Gallery for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
Three Hearts Hideaway is a quick, fun, and spicy why choose romance. It was a very easy read. It’s relatively low drama with a guaranteed happily ever after. A great book for anyone wanting a steamy read. The smut was smutting 👏🏼

Would love to read more from this author!
i really likes this romance book! it had very enjoyable tropes and characters! i wish it was a slightly slower burn but it was great nonetheless!
"Three Hearts Hideaway" is a cute little story about love, self-discovery, and redemption set in the tiny town of Little Greenfields. Ava is suffering from heartbreak and finds solace and healing in the company of Roman and Logan. The story is cute, and let's be honest - mostly smut with some fluff around it, and I found myself rooting for all of them. I was not the biggest fan of the writing style; it was a lot of telling instead of showing, and much of the dialogue was pretty cringe-worthy. I think this book is a solid choice for contemporary romance readers who want something cute and easy to read. And the cover is STUNNING.
“Love was hard. Love was complicated. But it was also fierce, free, and all-consuming.” 🩷💍💐💜🪻

This book was such a different experience for me but it was so lovely. The way love is spoken about encompasses everything it truly should be, free and all consuming. Showing your authentic nature to the ones closest to you who only praise and adore you for all of your traits is the best way that love can be admired and reciprocated. Luna day did a stunning job at showing that love shows up in various forms whether that be between 2 women, 2 men, or 2 men and one woman. Whether your heart beats for one or another, as long as your happiness is the most prominent factor, that is all that matters. A cute book perfect for valentine’s day, and this BEAUTIFUL cover, perfect for love day 🩷
Our fmc, Ava, was such an adoring woman who’s been constantly put down and shamed for her desires both romantically and sexually. Her ex boyfriend, an abusive and narcissistic man has put her down her whole life due to the things that she wants for herself and finally when he simply goes to far she rushes out of town, in search for a new place to collect her thoughts. In the new midst of finding 2 men who put her at an altar and adore her more than words, she slowly finds herself in the process. Accepting her wants, needs, and leaving narcissists in the past along with people who lack the ability to value her thoughts and emotions. Ava is such a kind hearted character who is stuck in a shell of insecurity and doubt, as the story progresses she breaks free of the boxes society has placed her in, the doubts from the people in her past, and the ignorant thoughts of insecurity roaming through her head.
our 2 mmc’s, roman and logan are polar opposites but SO CUTE! they hold such different values but at the end have one main goal and that is to love and cherish Ava and give her all the love she’s never had presented to her. Both the owners of the cute and cozy bed and breakfast in this little town - Roman, with long hair, burly arms, and tattooed chest is the most caring man to ever hold Ava and cherish her thoughts, opinions, and the way she navigates her life with her heart on her sleeve. Despite his tough exterior, he’s a big softie who just wants to wrap her in a big bear hug and never let anyone harm her. Logan, also known as Roman’s best friend is the sneaky and cunning of the two with a hard shell of protection due to his unhappy past and yet he is just as loving and nurturing towards the woman he loves. Even with his motorbike and dark outfits, he’s over protective, over bearing and yet loving and dedicated to taking care of her and making sure she doesn’t believe the doubts society has made her believe 🥺
In conclusion, this book was SUPERRR smutty, but yet super adorable and fresh to me. The only reason i rated a 3.5 out of 5 was due to the new relationship presented in this book and how i wasn’t expecting the couple dynamic to end up the way it did. I would’ve loved to see more of their couple dynamic in replacement of some smut scenes but despite this, i think the polyamorous relationship was presented lovely and their main objective was simply to love the person they cherished and cared for and in the end cured all of her scars🩷
thank you to netgalley for this super cute arc, a february love 🎀
"Love is love is love. When we find even a sliver of joy in this world, we need to hold it close to our hearts and let it bloom. We need to feed it and let it flourish. How that looks is different for everyone."
this story was so lovely! Ava, Roman & Logan were such interesting and different characters, and I really enjoyed reading their story and each of their journeys.
Ava's previous relationship was hard to read about, because unfortunately that has been / is a reality for a lot of people. I liked seeing her pick herself up, and try and rebuild her life somewhere new, where she happened to meet these 2 lovely men. I absolutely loved watching Roman & Logan helping Ava work through her previous trauma and helping her realise just how strong she is / her worth! Yes, she absolutely did realise it on her own in the end, but I really loved how tender and gentle they were with her heart, her feelings and slowly helped her realise what she knew all along!
I love how they provided her a safe, respectful and trusting space to explore her preferences which was so special and important for Ava to realise all her desires were completely normal & valid.
The ending was actually one of my favourite parts! it felt realistic, romantic and a natural progression of their relationship! the name of the b&b???? my heart was literally melting!!
thank you so much to NetGalley & Luna Day for this eARC! X

Ohh my goodness this was way spicier than I was expecting from the pretty cover and I’m not mad about it! Lol. It had some heavier moments and there was some drama with her ex but it was pretty lighthearted overall. It was about Ava finding herself, exploring her sexuality, and what she wanted in a relationship after being gaslighted and controlled by her narcissist ex boyfriend.
Roman is the long haired, tall, bearded, tattooed, pierced 👀, sweet and playful teddy bear. Logan is the serious, brooding, fierce, dominant, protector, and kind of an asshole at times. This book was fast paced, insanely hot, and I loved all the characters but I wish it was longer and we got more of the triad after they were established in their relationship. Also, as someone who has read a lot of kinky books, the cnc roleplay seemed sudden in the trust aspect and out of place for their first time together.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book for the most part and definitely recommend if it sounds like your thing! Thanks to the author & Netgalley for the arc!
Ava Anderson flies into small town Little Greenfield on a one way ticket, after being publicly humiliated by her now ex boyfriend. She arrives with no plans and no reservations, feeling defeated when the town’s only hotel is fully booked due to a fishing competition.
Enter Roman Banks: sexy pub owner, established local, and co-owner of a soon to open Bed & Breakfast. Sparks begin to fly immediately between the two. Then we meet Logan, business partner, best friend, and….total jerk? Logan’s icy demeanor should be off-putting, but there’s something about him Ava can’t shrug off.
Things heat up quickly as Ava and Roman becomes Ava, Roman AND Logan. The trio confront Ava’s abusive (verbally) ex, find their footing as a newly formed poly relationship, and finish up the B&B in time for opening day.
This story is escapism to the max, seeing our protagonist make a huge change in her life— moving to a small town where not one, but too handsome men fall in love with her and will do anything to please her. Overall cute story, and a fast read.
3.5 stars

Thank you to Luna Day and Netgalley for this ARC!
What an amazing debut novel!! I loved how different Roman and Logan were, they complimented eachother well and really you get the best of both worlds 😉 I loved how open Ava was with her sexuality and exploring what she likes and confident enough to ask for it. The chemistry between these 3 was on fire🔥. And this cover?! This has to be one of the prettiest ones I've seen in a long while! As a fellow Canadian 🇨🇦 I was so excited to read this by a Canadian author!
