Really??'<br />And I liked the way they worked things out amongst themselves too. They really did seem to think of all the angles.<br /><br />Jill: *g* Feel free!! I did notice she will be at the RT convention. I will look forward to getting some of her books there. And I read it in November.<br /><br />Leslie: It is indeed hot!

But the balance in this one is quite good. I don't have a lot to compare it too - yet - but I was impressed.<br /><br />Elizabeth: Well - this is very good as a menage book - not that I have a lot to compare it to mind you, but the dynamics of 3 worked quite well. And Sera was a very happy camper.Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-87219890182932586232009-11-04T08:05:24.727-05:002009-11-04T08:05:24.727-05:00LOL Kristie I just loved this review!

I'm glad I have the next one in the series.<br /><br />Jessica: I can see why a steady diet of this level could lead to skimming and then a level of numbness. But for a first book read with this level of graphic sexual content - well I really enjoyed it. I debated putting this next bit in the review but then thought it fell under the TMI category, but - now how to put this delicately - it left me 'itchy' and as a widow without a partner, no 'real' way to relieve that itchiness - or less delicately - horny as hell and no guy to relieve it on. *wicked grin*<br /><br />Leontine: This fifty*mumble* year old also thought the menage very well done - though I don't have anything really to compare it with. I'm glad to see she gets into more world building in the next one as if I had one complaint about this undercover, it was the lack of knowing more.<br /><br />Teddy Pig: I'm looking forward to taking on *g* the Chase brothers books. I got all the books at the same time - which is unusual for me, specially considering I'd never read a one of her books before - but now I'm glad. There's something to be said about instant gratification - and I mean that in more then one way - heh heh heh heh<br /><br />Mary - if all the rest of her books are as good as this one was then I am in for a treat. Though I think I will spread them out over a ways - in order to avoid overheating with no benefit of a fan.Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-49275069883836118302009-11-04T07:29:21.612-05:002009-11-04T07:29:21.612-05:00Love your review!

The Menage was so well done, part two in this series RELENTLESS has more world building in it and I really look forward to book three INSATIABLE where LD spins it in a new direction. For me LD has been a 2009 author discovery and the one that even topped this series is her new one that started with Laid Bare.<br /><br />And you can stammer away, I enjoyed your review just the same ;)Leontinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11772385054579881436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-85005628961019676982009-11-04T00:25:49.329-05:002009-11-04T00:25:49.329-05:00Yep Chase Brothers!
