Polished: MMF Menage Romance

By: Alyssa Turner

Narrated by: Erin Bateman, George Orlando

Length: 7 hrs and 42 mins

Publisher's Summary

It seemed like they had everything, but they didn’t have Jack.  

Without question Spencer Hartley burns hot for his girlfriend, Rory, but his other desires are hidden down deep. He might blow things up for a living and climb mountains for kicks, but the scariest thing in his life is the truth about his sexuality.  

Jack Rothman works hard and plays dirty. After long, demanding days in his family's engineering firm, he indulges in the pleasures of silk restraints and fine wine. Lots of hot meaningless sex helps him forget that he's suffocating, with no one to give him a reason to breathe.  

When a catastrophic accident traps Spencer in a flooded subway tunnel with Jack, they need each other to survive. But something strong stirs down there in the darkness, and it's more than their desperation to live. There's a spark between them that's impossible to ignore.  

Rory Campbell would love to give Spencer the one thing he doesn’t have, the freedom to explore his secret desires. But how does that fit into her picture-perfect relationship? When Jack invites the couple to his sprawling Hamptons beach house, Rory realizes that she has secret desires of her own - the kind only Jack's dominant hand across her bare bottom can satisfy.

While my view of this story didn't change from eBook to Audio, I will say the audio version was 80/20 for me. In the beginning I had a hard time with the duet narration but once I got used to it, I loved the audiobook too! I think duet narration is a hard one because it's very rare that it flows perfectly from chapter 1. And that is exactly how this one felt to me, it was a little choppy and jarring when it started and I felt like the narration was all I noticed in the beginning but once I got into it, the narration fade behind the story. This isn't me saying I didn't like the narrators, they did a good job, it's just the style of narration in my opinion. That being said... I loved this story and will listen to this audio again because MAN, IT WAS HOT!!!!!

Original eBook review:
HOLY HOT!!! I'd give this book 10 stars if I could! This may be the hottest MMF book I've ever read! I really liked the way this was written, the author had me completely enthralled after chapter 2 and I could almost see these scenes play out in my head!

I love the relationship between Rory and Spencer, they are so honest and in love, they know what they want and when that changes it just makes their relationship stronger. Jack's attraction to Spencer screams at you from the beginning! Jack is seriously dominant and he knows when he has a great thing and he jumps in with both feet. The relationship shared between the three of them is exactly what I wanted it to be! They are sweet, sexy and so in love! I'm so excited that Swept came out yesterday so I can devour that book next

Sexy with a side of sweet!

Polished is not your typical MMF romance and I love that! There was love, steam, lies, and deceit which turned this into one amazing story! I look forward to reading the rest of the series!

The narration was amazing! This was the first book narrated by George Orlando that I have listened to and I instantly became a fan! Erin also did an amazing job!

Great story.

Enjoyed the story. Only issue was the girl voice was the same sound when talking and when she was turned on. Which was a little annoying. But I got past it because I enjoyed the story.

Spencer Hartley and Rory Campbell have been together for years, but something has always been missing. Rory knows that Spencer is looking for more of a thrill, but he cannot admit that even to himself. When Spencer and his boss, Jack Rothman, are trapped underground and underwater in a subway tunnel, the two feel a spark of something that could become more. Jack's overbearing father demands that he ensures Spencer's cooperation in the future by inviting Spencer and Rory to their home in the Hamptons. When they visit, Jack shows them a new type of thrill that even Spencer cannot deny.

If you've been looking for a MMF Romance with a bit of suspense and overcoming emotional baggage thrown in, this is the book for you!

Audio Review:
Erin Batemen and George Orlando work well together in a duet narration of the story. The transitions are mostly seamless, although they might be better if listened to at a faster speed (I listened at 1x).

SIDE BY SIDE DIALOGUE THAT IS JUST FASCINATING!

WOW!! I just finished listening to this audiobook and I absolutely loved it! The plot and storyline are fascinating, A mind-blowing experience listening to the character on a side by side dialogue.

A fabulous performance by Erin Bateman and George Orlando that's easily visualize. Emotions and situations that are well conveyed and passionate scenes deliciously narrated. Memorable characters that feel like real people with their vulnerabilities, and/or facing life’s harsh realities.

This is not just a Menage Romance, but a believable, interesting, intriguing, enthralling and very emotional love story that I highly recommend!!

Cold shower please!! 🚿

This is one uber hot listen!! Narrators gave very passionate performances.
Not recommended for anyone who has a problem with M/M scenes which I obviously don't. Most definitely worth my credit.

Wow, this is an amazing book to read and listen too. It was filled with action and adventure right from the start. It’s will send spinning. Most of all it will leave you begging for more.

As for the characters I love them. I must say that Rory and Spencer are the perfect pair, they complement each other, but Jack is the key that binds them all together. Most of all this triad become strong together throughout the book , but I have a feeling that strength will be tempted as Spencer finally pops the Question. Can’t wait to read the next book.
