Length: 4 hrs and 19 mins

Publisher's summary

He'd watched them for so long it probably counted as stalking.

Bryce was confident when it came to work and his family, but hesitant when it involved relationships. He'd found subs that he pulled to him and Doms that could make his knees weak for a scene or two, but no one that tugged at his heart or who could understand what it was like to be both a Dom and a sub - until he'd seen Troy and Oliver.

They'd watched him for so long they decided to keep him.

Bryce hovered around them like a moth drawn to a flame. He circled and watched but never came closer, never approached them. Troy and Oliver were tired of waiting. They knew they needed a third to make them complete, and they knew they needed Bryce. But was he ready? They didn't want a one-night stand or a casual fling. They wanted everything with the confused switch who'd caught their eye and possibly their hearts.

Sad to see this series end😔

I absolutely love this series, I've read and reread each book....now I can add listened and re-listen. Bryce is different from the rest of the brothers in that he's a Switch, both dominant and submissive, so of course his perfect relationship is a throuple. He finds that in Troy and Oliver, who are in a committed D/S relationship. Bryce finds himself drawn to both Dominant Troy and Submissive Oliver, and both men are drawn to him. Now, their road to HEA is not without its troubles....these three men fight hard for it. I could go on and on about this book, but I'll end with LISTEN TO THIS SERIES, Shaw Montgomery is an amazing writer, and Kenneth Obi has the ability to bring a book to life...its like your right there in the book.

Sometimes you have to get out of your own way

One of my favorite in this series has always been Bryce. I truly enjoyed this M/M/M read/listen. I found myself giggling, rolling my eyes and gritting my teeth throughout this story both on the page and in my ear. Troy’s firm but loving hand; Oliver, one of my favorite little brats ever, and of course my lovely Bryce. Both sides of his nature come out to play and are genuinely cared for in the perfect meld of love, trust and strength. A great finish to the story of the brothers. As a Mom, all we want is for our kids to grow and be happy and healthy….even if we have to remind and push them to get out of their own way.

wounderful!!

I loved to see Bryce get his men. The story was great the characters were perfect together, very sensual. The only issue I had was the narrator said Tony instead of Troy a few times.

🔥🔥🔥

Ok so MMM IS THE BEST IN MY BOOK! These men were very sensual and sexy. I love this series. All of the characters went to together beautifully.

Kenneth Obi made all voices different. There was no question of who was who. Very enjoyable:) thank you for these listens❤️❤️

Awesome collaboration

Wow. An incredible narrator can bring a book to life, even a not so great book. But when the book is amazing? Sheer perfection. Kenneth is fast becoming a favorite voice actor of mine. This series feels like it was written just for him to perform. His ability to deepen his voice for the doms just shivers me timbers Mateys. Job well done, I never lost interest and just gobbled this installment right up.

Great Finish to a fabulous series

Life as a switch can be challenging.  I know several and they speak a lot about ‘hats’.  Which ‘hat’ are they wearing that day?  There is a different headspace for each role, and it can be delicate. Add polyamory to the mix, and it can create a chaotic mind.

Shaw Montgomery’s character, Bryce, is battling that chaos.  In binary BDSM relationships, unless both partners are switches, each partner usually has an assigned and negotiated role.  I have seen couples evolve over the years and even reverse these roles, but usually each person, who is being true to himself, chooses and enjoys their role.

Bryce has fought with this dichotomy his entire life.  He is a take-charge guy at work, having to stand up to his brothers who are also his business partners. In the BDSM club he attends, he has been observing a couple with growing hunger.  The opening scene of the book isbusiness partners. In the BDSM club he attends, he has been observing a couple with growing hunger.  The opening scene of the book is the aftercare of the submissive Oliver by his Dominant Troy.  Troy has just been using sounds on Oliver. (I’ll leave it up to you whether or not you’re going to investigate sounding if you’re not already familiar with it.)  Troy is holding Oliver, who is still flying.  Bryce is watching, as unobtrusively as possible, but his longing is plain to Troy, who invites the outsider to join the embrace.  Whether in an actual scene or in aftercare, only those explicitly invited to join are allowed to enter that sacred space.  Bryce understands the monumental nature of this invitation and he treasures the physical and emotional contact with the two men.

This story is told from each of the three men’s point-of-view, so, as a listener, I was able to see the relationship from the perspective of each member of the triad as they manoeuvre their way through this.  Troy and Oliver have known for a long time that they want a third.  But until they met Bryce, the structure of that new relationship wasn’t clear.  As Oliver points out, you can’t just custom-order a switch or pick one up at the supermarket.  That Bryce is a switch works for this trio.  But Bryce still has difficulty.  Sure, he enjoys topping or co-topping Oliver with Troy.  And he loves being one of Troy’s two ‘boys’, bottoming and submitting to the Dominant man, but he finds it difficult to change headspace.

Add his meddling mother and bossy brothers to the mix and it’s almost too much for the private man.  At one point, he’s ready to lose it.  Also, he’s a respected businessman in a conservative industry.  How would it look if he’s dating (and eventually loving) two men?

Sometimes it takes a pair to convince a switch that his true self is welcome.  And, speaking of true selves – Carter, Grant’s submissive, is becoming increasingly comfortable in his own skin, including wearing make-up and effeminate clothes.  Wyatt and Garrett are preparing to take their relationship to the next level.

This book is the perfect end to the stories of the four brothers who are all gay and all into BDSM.  And who all get their happy ending.

Kenneth Obi’s narration of the series has been enjoyable.  It can be a challenge to create and maintain nine distinct male voices, but he’s done a commendable job.  These are fun, light and entertaining listens.

Amazing!!

This is one of my favorite book of this series. I just love Bryce, Troy and Oliver! So having it in audio I couldn't wait and Kenneth Obi doesn't disappoint! He does another amazing narration. He brings all the emotion that the characters are feeling in such a real way that I love. Just amazing!!

Fantastic

This was my favorite book in the series. I love how the author didn't gloss over the growing pains of an mmm relationship. The narrator did a great job having different voices for each main character. I especially loved when he was able to overlay two different voices at the same time when two of the three MC spoke at the same time.

Bryce, Bound & Controlled 4

This was undoubtedly my favorite of the four books in this series. We get to see how each of the 4 brothers personal and work relationships develop in each of these 4 books, and its interesting to see how they all seem to make it work in their own ways, no matter how different they all are. And the Author definitely saved the best for last. Bryce not only finds one man who fits his "perfect" ideal, but he gets the best of both worlds, when he finds the Dom Troy and his Sub Oliver. After watching and lusting after each other for a long while the three men just need to figure out how they will all work and fit in together with Bryce as their Third and Dom/Sub Switch. This Polyamorous BDSM relationship is written perfectly. We get to see how they each interact individually as well as when all three of the men get together with some Light BDSM scenes thrown in. I also totally loved Oliver, I think he's my absolute favorite character in this entire series, he's just so bubbly and cute. My only complaint is that I just really want more...
Audio - Kenneth Obi is back, doing a great job finishing off this series with his narration of Bryce, Troy and Oliver. I really liked the distinction he made for all three of the characters, I'm sure its not easy when you throw a third voice into the mix. And his voice for Oliver especially, really made his personality and character stand out of the book, compared to the two others. I really liked listening to this one, also my favorite narration of this series as well.

another amazing listen by Shaw and Kenneth

once again Shaw and Kenneth have not let me down with Bryce. well rounded characters written by Shaw and brought to life by Kenneth.
