review 1: I rounded up and gave this book 3 stars. It was better than 'just OK', and I guess I didn't NOT like it, so...3 stars.The whole setup is rather predictable: Logan and his friend Jace rescue Emma when she's being mistreated at a BDSM club. She's nervous and afraid, but let's them get hot and heavy with her anyway...Wow just once I'd love to read a book where the heroine says "No way, I'm outta here" and then actually leaves! You don't really get to know Jace or Logan -- they're rather cardboard. Jace is very sweet -- Logan's more alpha, but a good guy, and they both care about Emma.My only criticism is a surprising break in the story when Logan leaves. He's deployed a mission, so he has to go, but he leaves without telling Emma -- he just disappears. And then...the story p... moreicks up six months later when he returns. It's just a weird sort of time warp, and it doesn't serve the story well at all.
review 2: Very good menage story. This is the first book I've read by this author and it's made me want to try more, probably with the next book in the series. :DAs the story begins Emma is at Viper's Dungeon with her boyfriend, Greg. Greg is a real jerk and hurting her so two Doms (Jace and Logan) come to her rescue. Emma fins herself unexpectedly attracted to Jace and Logan after the rescue her from Greg. They offer to show her more of the BDSM lifestyle in a manner that makes her feel safe so she accepts to satisfy her curiosity and to spend more time with them. Jace is an Engineer by day but works a night or 2 a week as a Dungeon monitor at Viper's. When he helps Logan rescue Emma, Jace falls for her pretty quickly. He'd been thinking about finding a permanent Sub/girlfriend but hadn't found the right woman. With Emma her finds everything he wants and more. Strangely he doesn't usually share a Sub with other Dom's but Logan being included from the beginning feels natural to Jace so he's willing to accept it. Logan used to work at Viper's years ago (and was friends with Jace back then) but has been a Navy SEAL for years. He's on leave for 3 weeks and never intended to get involved but when he meets Emma he finds it hard to pull away. Logan has some issues he's trying to get past and tends to try to pull away but he falls for Emma very quickly regardless (even though he feels he shouldn't).During the time the three spend together, Jace and Logan introduce Emma to BDSM and she finds she likes it. The news comes out that Greg is a stalker and Jace and Logan decide to protect her from Greg. This adds some drama to the story line to say the least...Towards the end of the book Logan does suffer from a serious bout of relationship dumbassedness but manages to recover before all is lost. Fortunately Jace doesn't suffer from this horrible sickness and Emma at least has him to lean on while Logan recovered. ;DBouts of relationship dumbassedness aside this was a great story. I really enjoyed it and will be reading the next in the series. I'd recommend it. ;) less
