Publisher's summary

James Corbin, Viscount Finchley, has two goals. First, guarantee his brother gets married. That path is made smoother now that George is finally engaged. Nothing will stand between George and the altar . . . not even George.

Second, James must ensure that his best friend Burke does not get married . . . at least not to the living, breathing gorgon that is Lady Olivia Rutledge. Burke is fully on board with this plan. Together with their friend Renley, the gentlemen concoct an elaborate ruse designed to set Burke free from his matrimonial snare.

But as the day of George's wedding draws near, secrets from their past emerge, threatening each of their futures. Can James survive his brother's debauchery? Can Burke survive the social politics threatening to confine him? Can Renley . . . survive?

Rosalie Harrow, a young lady without family, fortune, or title, tears through their lives, upending all their careful plans. And she has plans of her own: save Burke from the altar, save Renley from the ghosts that haunt him, and save James from himself.

For love of Rosalie, the gentlemen must prove willing to try anything, risk anything, and be anything she needs.

Contains mature themes.

Really good

Love the story and the characters, and oh my goodness the SPICE! Chefs kiss! Love the mmmf of it all!!

So good!

This duo is amazing. I was concerned about the length but it flew by. I think the BBC needs to option it. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE George!

Perfectly HOT!

I loved these first two books so much!!! Allie Rose and Dan Calley were so perfect together. Book 2 was off the charts spicy, so hydrate, my friends. I need more Regency Era reverse harems, STAT!

Love

I can’t stop talking about how much I love this series!! Again, I’ve fallen in love with this book all over again!! Hearing the actors read made things even funnier, especially George!! I love their love most!!

If you like poly romance you’ll love this series

This series is great. I loved the FMC. She was classy yet not typical type of lady of the time period. Each of the men are strong men, different from each other, but still strong and offer something different to the relationship. I loved the men’s relationship with each other as well as their relationship to the FMC. This was exactly what I was looking for.

Woah!

I rarely read descriptions and never read reviews before I listen to a book. Furthermore I didn’t listen to book one of this series. So imagine my utter confusion during the first 4 chapters. (Unlike other Regency book series, you DO kinda need to read book one first). And imagine my utter stupefaction at the subject matter!! 😳 This. Book. Is. STEAMY!!! Lots of sex. So much sex, in fact, you actually don’t really care what the plot is after a while. 🤣

Holy cannoli this book was full of drama and sex! Love every minute of it! This reverse harem is not lacking and also contains m/m romance too. I have already re-listened to the first book and this one twice and purchased the actual books.

Wasn’t prepared

There needs to be a disclaimer or an inclusion on what contents will be included in the “sensual” scenes. There wasn’t. And I feel misled.
I know nothing about the author or what kind of stories she likes to create. This story was definitely not for me.
I agree the storyline draws you in but it then becomes very superficial very quickly.
I wasn’t aware the men were bisexual and the main female lead would have them all, at the same time .. and the men would have relations with each other while having relations with the female. It read like porn. If any man talked to me like this female was being talked to .. just no.
No romance here .. just hardcore porn style intercourse. I assume some people enjoy that. But I like a deeper and meaningful connection between two characters, ones that are devoted only to each other.
I saw someone review this series claiming it was better than the “Bridgerton” series. That’s your opinion but I say .. Nope. Not even close. My opinion is - the Bridgerton series is well written, the characters have depth, and the “spicy” scenes are more relatable to me.
And NO … I am not bashing on anyone who loves anyone of the same gender or who they identify as. I’m simply stating my preferences.

James

James is the normal one & I hate that they make him feel like something is wrong with him he is a good normal man any woman should want
