Warning: This story contains adult subject matter and language that is probably not suitable for anyone. (MFM paranormal erotic romance)

Two’s a couple, three’s a ménage, not to mention the law. Welcome to an alternate world where the government gives tax breaks to women who choose to take on two or more men—and werewolves live amongst us.

Despite the laws encouraging polygamy, Chloe isn’t interested in a relationship with one man, let alone two. But all that changes when a werewolf client decides he wants her for more than just legal aid. He’s not alone though. Her nemesis in the courtroom, district attorney Anthony Vanderson, is also intent on seduction.

Caught between two men—naked and panting—she succumbs to passion, gets embroiled in a mystery and learns werewolves aren’t the only creatures living amongst humans.

Reviewer’s Thoughts

I really love Eve Langlais books. They are always funny and entertaining. This one, however, didn’t quite live up to her usual quirky brilliance.

I love paranormal books and the synopsis was intriguing, but it totally wasn’t what I was expecting. With a shortage of women in the world, it has become the norm to have threesomes, foursomes or moresomes as a typical family since the “coming out” of paranormal beings. With Chloe and her two suitors, the story took on a different vibe that I didn’t really get into. Instead of having the threesome be a unit, it was more of a scheduling between who got to spend time with the Chloe.  I would have liked to have seen a more “together” union instead of it feeling like a timeshare relationship.

I also didn’t like Chloe. She was hurt pretty bad in a previous relationship and had huge hang-ups with trust. She didn’t want a relationship but one-night stands were no problem for her. Chloe never got over her issues and still, at the end of the book, wasn’t fully committed and still wary of the two men who’d do anything to keep her. Chloe’s constant doubts and the emotional distance she kept between herself and the two men got old after a while and had me losing interest in the story.

The dialogue—which is always expected to be hilarious and filled with sexual innuendo—was a little too over the top in this book. I felt myself rolling my eyes more than laughing at Chloe’s life views and crazy antics. There was also A LOT of sex in this book, which normally I don’t mind but I would have liked more of the relationship development in exchange for a few of those super steamy scenes.

All in all, this was an okay read for me.

~ Top 10 AllRomance Bestselling Author 2013

Hello, my name is Eve. I’m a stay at home mom who writes full time in between juggling my three kids, hubby, and housework, I write really raunchy stuff–usually with werewolves lol.

I am a bestselling Amazon author, ranking often in their top 100 romance authors. But I’m not just popular with Kindle readers. I was one of the top ten selling authors on AllRomance for 2013 and have had numerous of my books hit the top 20 books over all on Barnes & Nobles as well.

I am the first person to admit I am totally boring and lead a mundane life. Seriously. My idea of fun is shopping at our local Walmart lol. I like to play video games, cook, and read. My inspiration, hmm, I guess you could say hubby as he is a total alpha male which means I often want to club him over head with a frying pan. But, despite his ornery, ‘I-am-man’ nature, I love him dearly.

I’m writing romance, my way. I do have a twisted imagination and a sarcastic sense of humor something I like to let loose in my writing. I like strong alpha males, naked chests and werewolves. Lots of werewolves. In fact, you’ll notice most of my multi partner stories revolve around great, big, overprotective Lycans who just want to please their woman. I am also extremely partial to aliens, you know the kind who abduct their woman and then drive them insane…with pleasure of course.

My heroines, they kind of run the gamut. I have some that are shy and soft spoken, others that will kick a man in the balls and laugh. Many of them are chubby, because in my world, girls with curves ROCK! Oh and some of my heroines are a teeny tiny bit evil, but in their defense, they need love too.

Some of my work does push boundaries and cross lines. Good and evil aren’t always clear in my tales, and in some cases, I’ve stomped on well known religious ideologies. Have I mentioned my imagination is a tad bit warped?

I tend to have a lot of sexual tension in my tales because I think all torrid love affairs start with a tingle in our tummies. And when my characters do finally give in to the needs of their flesh? Well, let’s just say, you shouldn’t be reading my stuff at work. The door is wide open, explicit and hot. Really, really hot.

I love to write, and while I don’t always know what my mind is going to come up with next, I can promise it will be fun, probably humorous and most of all romantic, because I love a happily ever after.

The following two tabs change content below.
I am a lover of alpha males with dirty mouths, strong heroines putting alpha males in their place, and the Chicago Blackhawks. I'm a proud hockey mom who can often be found at the hockey rink cheering on my favorite forward, with my kindle close by.
