Huge Games

Beyond Huge #3

by Stephanie Brother

#1 New Release in Polyamory Romance
Finding three fake boyfriends is the best way to heal a broken heart...
When I discover my boyfriend Eddie has a side chick, I’m humiliated and furious. But I dry my tears and pull up my big girl panties. I don’t want him back, but I want him out of my head and my heart. Time to turn to every woman’s medicine in a time of chocolate and cocktails.
But my friends have other ideas. They tell me the best kind of healing is the hot, sweaty, toe-curling, mind-blowing kind.
So, on a drunken night, I take a chance and kiss three hotter-than-sin men until my knees are weak and my pulse is racing.
Dornan is huge and intimidating on the outside, but has a heart of gold behind all that muscle. When I tell him what I need to heal, he’s happy to play along.
I have a history with Elias, the cockiest alpha-hole I know. As my ex’s nemesis, he’s the perfect choice to rock my world and make me forget.
And Travis is my best friend’s hot older brother. He’s sexy and mature, and reads my body and my needs like braille.
The three of them don’t seem to like each other, but they like me and the games I want to play.
It’s all supposed to be fun and lighthearted, but things get real fast and I find myself drawn into a situation I didn’t anticipate.
Is love ever a game worth playing? Or is it all too much of a gamble?

Another great read by Stephanie.
Full of humor, drama, secret feelings, and spice. I'll also want to mention we get spice from the start and boy was it hot!

Celine was done dirty by her now ex. She decides to she wants to fake date or participate in a "game" with 3 guys in her life.
Travis, Dornan, and Elias, I loved each of them. I liked that they weren't an already formed group. While they knew each other, they weren't all friends at the start.
Like I said before, there was definitely steam, but lots of emotion were involved. I enjoyed seeing them all get to know each other. We get to see the characters grow and see how those feelings change into love.

Huge Games has finally arrived, I was so excited for this book. This series delivers every time, and this book is no exception.

Here we are with Celine trying to move on after her cheating ex, and we get to know Elias, Travis, and Dornan. I loved how relatable these characters were and how you get to see everyone come together, especially without the men having that connection from the start like most RH do. They continued to show up for one another to help overcome the drama life tossed their way. Definitely recommend reading this!

Celine is devastated for her boyfriend’s betrayal. Catching him cheating on her has her angry. When her bestie recommends she get over her ex by having rebound sex, Celine hatches a plan to make her ex see what he’s missing. One drunken night out, she decides she wants what her friends have, and 3 men is better than 1. She enlists the help of her friend, Dornan, who’s secretly had a thing for her for a while, Elias, a previous one-night stand, and Travis, her best friend’s older brother. What starts out as a game, quickly turns into more all the way around. Celine started out pretty immature, but eventually turned into a character I could really like. Lots of steamy one on one time as well as group times. Great addition to the series.

Stephanie definitely delivered in a Huge way with this one.

Fantastic characters that you really connect with and feel the love for.
A story plot that keeps you interested and motivated to keep turning the pages.
A devious ex who you love to hate.
And some steam that will melt your heart, soul and Kindle if your not careful.

Excellent writing and great work by the author, I loved this book, very much a favourite of mine from now on.

I received an Arc copy of this book and chose to post this review

[Bev · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh boy, this was a hot one. Celine, Dornan, Elias, and Travis. Dornan has been one of Celine's best friends for years. She had a one-night stand with Elias. And doesn't really know Travis. Dornan and Elias are really big football dudes, and Travis has one hot body under his clothes. What happens between the four characters is an amazing story and I just couldn't put it down.

[Kerry Boulanger · Rating 5 out of 5]

Celine just broke up with her cheating boyfriend and alcohol gives her the liquid courage to kiss the three hot, single guys in their friend group. Elias, Travis and Dornan are all attracted to Celine. They agree to be her three fake boyfriends, which may or may not include benefits. In true Stephanie Brother fashion this book has plenty of steam, humor, drama and a happy ending. Definitely recommend reading this book.

[Kimberlea Richardson · Rating 5 out of 5]

No More Games ❤️

After the ending of Gabriella’s book, I knew I had to read Celine’s story, and guess what…it was even better than I thought it’d be!!! Dornan, Elias, and Travis were just what Celine needed to get over her moronic ex. A night with all 3 guys treating Celine like a queen led to a fake relationship, that then eventually led to a connection the 4 of them never could’ve imagined, and even more, a connection that helped healed parts of themselves in ways they never saw coming. I loved that we had already met Celine’s guys in the 1st two books, so it made it easy to automatically root for her to form a relationship with them. It was also nice to learn more & truly get to know them as main characters, some of which I couldn’t have anticipated. It was a nice change of pace to see 3 guys have to come together to get the girl this time, instead of them already having a fully formed friendship, or family unit. SB is wonderful about making her stories believable, but this one felt even more realistic than I’m used to. It made the whole story flow even better, and had me even more invested than usual in seeing our characters get their HEAs. This story is packed with all sorts of goodies! It’s got whychoose, friends-to-lovers, fake-dating, college & sports romance. You get all that plus realistic characters, an engaging storyline that’s balanced by steamy chemistry & fiery passionate moments, and 4 characters that fall in love while on an entertaining & emotional journey. Do not hesitate to read this now, but keep in mind, even though this story can stand on its own, it will be 100x more enjoyable if you read the 1st two books beforehand 😉❤️

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "HUGE GAMES" I thoroughly enjoyed this story that pulls you in right from the start so full of heartbreak, cheating-ex, angst, emotional turmoil, intrigue, steam, humiliated, angry, you'll be hooked on this page turner to the end.
Celine was devastated & humiliated that her ex-Eddie cheated on her heartbroken she doesn't want him back she wants him to see she doesn't care going out getting drunk with her Bf's friends Gabrielle & Ellie she ends up kissing three hot gorgeous guys, her friends are in polyamorous relationships they tell her best to get over heartbreak is to have mind-blowing, toe curling sex, to put it behind her & move on.
Dornan has alway had a thing for Celine, Travis is Gabrielle brother & Elias is the arrogant one of the three & her ex-Eddie's nemesis perfect person to give her a mind-blowing one night stand to make her forget.
I definitely recommend to get this interesting, entertaining journey Celine, Travis, Dornan & Ellias take you on the guys aren't particularly close but will to play her game, will they end up in a polyamorous relationship like her BF'S or will they go their separate ways it's a must read to see what happens with great characters that pull you right into all the drama, I loved it.
AWESOME REVERSE HAREM ROMANCE 🖤 🖤 🖤 🖤 🖤

[Fiona · Rating 5 out of 5]

I thoroughly enjoyed reading reverse harem books by Stephanie Brother, as she brings the characters to life and you become involved in the story. This book was filled with many emotions, and multiple dramas going on at once, but Travis, Dornan, Elias, and Celine all banned together to work things out and are therefore emotional and physical support. It all happens when Celine discovers. Her boyfriend has been cheating on her and she decides that she’s going to have revenge sex, and with her friends Ellie and Gabrielle all in polyamorous relationships she figures why not have three fake boyfriends, just to show her ex boyfriend that she doesn’t need him. What starts off as a revenge relationship turns into a loving and caring one instead. There was a lot of growth for Celine and Elias, and they had each other to help them through it. Travis also had his own crisis to deal with, and he knew that with the help of his friends and Celine that he would get through it. There is a happy ending for all of these characters.

I was given an advanced copy of this book to read and I am reviewing with my honest and fair opinion.

[Reader · Rating 5 out of 5]

Stephanie brother keeps writing these must reads and gives us another great book.

It starts off with Celine getting over her ex Eddie (that should’ve got at least a broken nose for what he does) that cheated and getting Travis, Elias, and Dornan together as a revenge harem. The men are not friends in the beginning but that quickly changes with Celine as the common link for them all. Celine starts off as just wanting to stick it to her ex and is a great female lead that is feisty, caring, struggling in her own ways.

The men in all there own ways are unique and struggles themselves but with each other they heal. Dornan is your muscular giant teddy bear with a heart of gold that I think is the backbone of the group at times. Travis is the older dom that is getting over what happened in Germany and is the other backbone of the group. Elias starts off as that cocky man but we quickly learn that there is more under the surface. Celine is the woman that in the end I think they all needed to be whole and be true to themselves. In the end am happy they got there happy ending.

I might get some hate for this but ’m going chuck this out there, I don’t like Celine, I didn’t like her in huge dare and it just got worse in this one, sorry Stephanie. I know she was going through things in her personal life but
I just found her selfish and an attention seeker. I felt like she was just playing the guys against each other at the start and chucking tantrums when things didnt go her way, I thought she probably could have done with speaking with a professional. A bit more drama in this one and the men had a bit of a story as well. Still enjoyed reading g but just didn’t connect with this one.

I read this as an ARC and leave my honest review.

[Veronica · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great series

Recouping from her cheating ex's reptilian behavior, Celine plot revenge. Out celebrating with friends, she kisses three men and teases that she's creating her own harem. As these three men take her home, ensuring she's safe, the come together in a plan to anger her ex.

Fake dates lead to a lot of sex with Dornan, Elias, and Travis. As time passes, the three grow closer. Suddenly, the foursome are supporting each other in and out of the bedroom.

Complications arise, yada, yada, yada, until ....

If you like a bad boy arc, kinky play, redemption, and surprises, this one will provide.

[Tamara · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book was a one n half star plot wise. But I couldn't do that, so I gave it two. I didn't really care for the Celine character at all. Revenge only leads to more heart ache. Which(surprise) it did! I felt like her ex was more of a throwaway character as he really wasn't needed once he realized she was moving on with the guys. Also because we don't hear about what happens to him, except he got arrested for what he did to her with a video. That he somehow secretly recorded, even though, from the description. It sounded like someone was in the room with them, unbeknownst to her? Whatever. This book was barely finishable to read, but I did. Will not be re reading this one sadly

[Charlotte · Rating 5 out of 5]

Huge Games is the first book that Ive read in this series and I really enjoyed reading it. Celine's (FMC) life gets complicated after when her Ex-Boyfriend cheated on her and as a payback as well as showing him that she's moved on by having a plan. One that includes 3 hot men - Elias (a one night stand), Dornan (her friend) and Travis (her best friends Older brother). Only for things to become steamy between all of them. I loved this book and I think Ill have to get my hands on the rest of the series now.

[Patti · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent story! If you have read the other standalone books in the Beyond Huge series, then you must have been as anxious to get your hands on this book as I was. Was I ever frustrated with Celine at the beginning of this story! I really wanted to see how the games played out, and as I kept reading, I started getting more and more attached to these characters. The hits kept coming and to more than one main character! I was so happy with their HEA. One of my favorite quotes is from Celine: I have love to fill the empty parts of me.

I reviewed an ARC copy of this book.

[Rachael Bromley · Rating 4 out of 5]

Is 3 better than one.

I like the book as a story but I just couldn't get on with Celine. She was with Eddie who cheated on her, they parte and it was as if Celine was playing games and getting one over on Eddie because he was with someone else. I wanted all those around her to scream and tell her to stop. Well Travis, Dornan and Elias didn't tell her to stop. They did have a chemistry between the three of them but I grew frustrated T some of the things that happened. An all in all good read apart from the specific part already mentioned.

[Melissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

Finding out that her boyfriend cheated on her, Celine at the advice of her friends kisses three guys. One her friends brother Travis, the other her ex's nemesis Elias, and her friend Dornan. Coming up with a plan to make her ex jealous, she starts to fake date each of the guys. Turning up at places that she will be seen knowing it will get back to her ex, or she would even be seen by him. Although, she didn't think she'd end up having real feelings develop for all three guys, nor did she think they would all fall for her. What started as a game, turns out very real.

[Barb · Rating 4 out of 5]

This author always brings us exciting stories that you get totally captivated by and this one is no exception! Just loved these characters and they all worked so well together! Definitely a great way to get over a crappy ex! I love all the appearances from previous characters we get. A very enjoyable and steamy read that I highly recommend! This is my honest opinion of this complimentary copy of this book

[Sherry Westendorf · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is my favorite author as I always know when I read one of her books it will be awesome. Celine finds her boyfriend cheating on her and so her friends talk her into having sex to get back to him. so instead of one she finds three of her friends and the games begin. There is excitement, drama, emotions, fun times and so much more that finally ends in love. Even with life's dramas they have a lot of fun and excitement in many ways. Well worth reading. I received a review copy and voluntarily review it.

[Angel Hatfield · Rating 5 out of 5]

Three Thumbs Up!

I absolutely love this author! I'm always kind of hesitant when it comes to authors that have so many books that I love. There's always a few that don't work for me, so there's always that anticipation. This was, however, another great one. She manages to mix believable emotion and plenty of hawtness mixed in. I also enjoyed seeing the characters from the other books in this series again. I highly recommend for anyone that likes this genre and quick reads.

Huge Games, book 3 of the Beyond Huge Series by Stephanie Brother @stephaniebrotherbooks. First off, I am a fan of Stephanie & this book was no different!

I loved this book about Celine, Elias, Travis & Dornan! This book is fantastic! If you want an RH without the 3rd act breakup, college age & emotional growth, this is for you!

I received this #ARCBook early and for my honest review.

[Chasity Williams · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great

Celine is newly single and looking to get over her ex. She's known Doran, Elias and Travis for a while and Celine decides they will be perfect to help her out. Can the guys all get along and work together for her? What will happen when they all start to feel something more than a good time? Can they all have a HEA together?

[Secret Romance Junkie · Rating 5 out of 5]

College is a time to go wild but Celine tops them all. 3 fake boyfriends with no previous poly experience and all of them with their full focus on Celine. What starts as revenge, grows into an exceptional love story. Elias, Dornan and Travis each bring a unique and lovable personality to the mix. I really wanted Dornan to get his story and this was perfect.

[Jamie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Huge Games is my new favorite Stephanie Brother novel, even though I had just said that about Huge Deal yesterday. I liked this one even better, because the RH MMCs weren't friends (or siblings like the previous books in this series) prior to forming a relationship with Celine. And again, my favorite aspect of Stephanie Brother's books is that the guys fall first. Liked this one a lot.

[Eve Rogers · Rating 4 out of 5]

**This is an ARC review**

Nothing really bad about the book. I guess this series doesn't really do it for me like the biker series or the beast brothers one. It was a good story and the characters went together perfectly. I didn't fall to deep off into this one like I normally would.

[Lisa H · Rating 5 out of 5]

The best revenge…

Is getting under three hot new guys.
When Celine catches her bf cheating on her, her plan for revenge is to get under the three guys who would irritate her now ex the most. Dorman, Elias and Travis are all packing and way hot.
Recommend.

[Elizabeth · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love a good angst book where not every guy falls in line. Do I love a good love at first sight yes, but I love it when they have to work through their own crap as individuals. Makes it all the more sweeter when it all comes together.

Another amazing instalment in this series I loved this dynamic of characters i thought they fitted beautifully I enjoyed the plot and of course the 🌶️ I think Elias may be my new book bf crush I loved his brooding vibe overall a fab read
