By: Lora Leigh

Publisher's summary

People have heard of fleeting rumors about The Club. Located just outside Washington, D.C., only its members know where men go when they want to indulge the desire to share their women with a carefully selected male partner. John “Mac” McCoy resigned his membership from The Club when he married Keiley Hardin. Tempting and innocent, sweet and sexy, she would never accept Mac’s desire to share her with another man.

However, Mac’s fantasies of sharing his wife haunt his dreams. And his passions. Unable to wait any longer to draw his best friend, Jethro Riggs, into his marriage, Mac invites Jethro to their home with the intention of drawing Keiley into the pleasures that can only be achieved when two men love the same woman.

But there’s more going on in Mac’s neck of the woods than a little additional pleasure. A past case, a stalker that likes to play games, and his wife is now in the middle of it all. Passion and pleasure, danger and desire combine as forbidden pleasure becomes an addiction none of them can escape.

added material from original. the 1st was 4+ stars

added material changed the story. unneeded filler that wanted to brush over. Talked too much and going on over emotions and character development. I love Lora Leigh and loved the original book released. Sex scenes were great and I liked the story. I just got a bit bored with all the added material, angst and explaining of behavior and thinking. it just wasnt necessary and made it a different book than the original I bought. filler and too much explanation to make a book longer doesnt really make it better because it can detract from the story.

Where does Forbidden Pleasure rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

At the top, Clare Claremont does an awesome job with the voices and the story line by Lora Leigh left me wanting more. I have played the audio book twice and haven't gotten bored listening to it again and again.

Who was your favorite character and why?

All three characters were my favorites, all three had been through so much and to be able to have a relationship the way they do, is unusual.

All three, Clare Clarement did an awesome job with all the voices.

I laughed.

Any additional comments?

I would recommend this book to others.

Ehhh...o.k. but not her best

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The sex was hot and the story was o.k. but not as good as many of her other books - her best (in my opinion) are Maverick & Wild Card.

Would you be willing to try another book from Lora Leigh? Why or why not?

Yes, she has some great books!

The scene after they decide NOT to go dancing-HOT!

No

Any additional comments?

For over 18 and not for those who don't like strong language.

Great Mystery & Love Story!

I enjoyed listening to the audiobook. Great mystery and love story. Lots of erotic moments that will keep you reading. Lora Leigh is one of my favorite writers.

Not for the sexually faint of heart!

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Probably not unless they were into explicit sex involving threesomes. This book had a little plot and a lot of sex.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I don't really have a favorite, their lifestyle kind of creeps me out. And who names their kid Jethro, not too sexy....

What didn’t you like about Clare Claremont’s performance?

I just could not get into her sex sound effects, they sounded unrealistic.

Was Forbidden Pleasure worth the listening time?

It was ok, it wasn't a waste of my time, but I kind of felt a little nauseated after the whole ordeal, this just isn't the lifestyle I like to listen to.

highs and lows

If you could sum up Forbidden Pleasure in three words, what would they be?

wow a storyline!

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I love that fact that there was a story here a good read , even without the erotica parts.I dont think there was a least interesting part to this story I would listen to it again .

Did Clare Claremont do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

She did an awesome job. it is always hard to do multiple characters, I think she carried off great. I could always distinguish between them all

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

just what is it now "Forbidden Pleasure"

Double Yummy.........

Love Lora Leigh! Was a little drawn out in the beginning; however, picked up and was it HOT!!!! Goodness; I needed a cigarette reading this one.......LOL

Dark Suspenseful Threesome Love Story

Former FBI Agent Mac McCoy gave up a lot to marry Keiley Hardin. Knowing that she wasn't ready to accept the sexual lifestyle that he reveled in, he willingly gave it up in order to have Keiley. All he's doing is waiting for the day that she embraces the need that he can so plainly see in her. Mac is content to be patient with Keiley, until her curiosity starts getting the better of her.

Keiley Hardin is just starting to realize that Mac has been holding a part of himself back from her. Though she desperately wants all of her husband, she is not sure if she can do what he so obviously needs from her. After living for years in the shadow of her parents mistakes, Keiley abhors gossip and does everything she can not to draw attention to herself.

Jethro Riggs has been waiting for three years for Mac's call to tell him that Keiley is ready. When it finally comes, Jethro wonders how he will hide the feels he has for Keiley from Mac. Although Jethro and Mac have shared many women, Jethro knows this is different because of how much Mac loves Keiley.

This was an unusual book for me. In previous m/f/m books that I've read (specifically Lora Leigh's), the men only share their women until they are married. As a married woman myself, I had a hard time understanding how Mac could want to share and how Keiley could be in love with two men at the same time. On the other hand, Keiley's struggle with exactly that came across loud and clear. When you throw in a little suspense from one of Mac's old cases and a harpy witch that wants to bring Keiley down, you have a good read. All in all, it was a good book though unusual.

um ya

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

it was way to much sex, i didn't know it was like that! I'm not mad but caught off guard with it that's all.

Would you recommend Forbidden Pleasure to your friends? Why or why not?

um no i wouldn't its something i wouldn't listen to. But i bought it and i had it for a long time so i went ahead and listened to it.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Clare Claremont?

not sure

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

it was a love story if you can get past the smut! a pretty good one!
