(Erotica / Erotic Romance / Contemporary / The Arts / Menage [M/M/F] / Group Sex / Bisexual [M/M] Content / Interracial / Multicultural / Voyeurism) Hannah and her husband Nathaniel have always shared one particular fantasy--he wants to make love with another man, and she wants to watch. When Hannah loses her job to a crumbling economy, she soon finds that an idle mind is indeed 'the devil's playground.' She latches onto the delectably naughty idea of bringing a third into the bedroom, but inviting a man they both know to join them could have far-reaching negative consequences. What they need is someone else. Someone anonymous. After a hot night of menage sex with a stunning escort, Hannah becomes obsessed with finding out the identity of their mystery male. Even when Nathaniel unexpectedly introduces another vibrant young man into their relationship, Hannah remains possessed by her fixation. To what lengths will Hannah go to discover the real identity of Mr. Anonymous?

This was actually going well until Hanna became utterly ridiculous and what was the point of that whole last scene?

[Jane Harper · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book can't decide if it wants to be an erotic MMF genre romance; or a literary novel about a woman coming to terms with her career choices, her husband's bisexuality, and her obsession with learning the identity of the man with whom they first had a threesome. As can be expected, it does neither very well.

There is some very nice prose, though.

I can see why the overall rating on this hasn't been great. I wasn't fond of the main characters. I felt like they had some real issues in their marriage. I can't believe they made bringing in a third work because they were a bit dysfunctional.

I wasn't a huge fan of the author narrating either.

Once every while I give (sub)genre's I've previously disliked another chance.
This was one, and it wasn't a good one.

What irked me most was that the woman is said to be smart, but I see nothing of that.
Instead she came across ass a pouty 16 year old.
The language used would also fit better if she was a 16 young adult.

I skimmed through most of the latter part to see if it got better. No such luck, it got worse.

I started this book with promise. The premise and the beginning had me feeling confident I would like it. For most of it I did. But, without spoilers, I really didn't like the ending. More than dislike, I felt that the ending didn't deliver on the premise of the story. When does the desire to live out a fantasy turn to obsession and should those around you suffer for it? If it wasn't for the fact that it I found the book to be well written and an original concept, it would have been a 2 star.

Good read

Not the usual kind of story I normally read but it was actually pretty good, will I read more with guy on guy even with the wife present probably not....just not my preference

Unfortunately, I did not finish this book. It had potential but I was turned off by Hannah's obsession. I just couldn't get it.

I don't like female in my m/m books. Not my preference.
