The Receptionist #3
Unleashing the Receptionist
You can tie a girl up, but you can’t keep her down… …the Receptionist, Book 3 In the year since Dana joined Ethan and Simon’s firm, the three of them have found the perfect balance of power and pleasure in their three-way, work/play relationship. Not only that, but it’s been the firm’s most successful year financially. Except something is missing. Her men won’t tell her anything about their past. How they met, or how they formed such an unconventional business and personal partnership. Until they start sharing their secrets, Dana fears she’ll always be the odd girl out. Everything changes when a vengeful former partner resurfaces. Suddenly, both the business and their idyllic relationship are under siege. With a tax auditor watching their every move, the three must be on their best behavior. Never one to back down from a challenge, Dana seizes the chance to prove herself—and finally win her sexy bosses’ full trust and confidence. Now the race is on to root the evil nemesis out of their lives once and for all—before her dream relationship cracks under the pressure. Contains hot three-way M/F/M sex, highly inappropriate office behavior, a shocking secret, a kinky accountant and some really bad girl-on-girl porno reenactments.

Thank God the trilogy is over! After 3 books I can say that it had no plot, character involvement or anything else that make a book good. Even if you torture me I won't read another book from this author

First of all, I think I need to advise you on one thing...do not read a smutty book on an airplane. I read this book on my journey home from a weekend o'fun with my BFF. I think the flight attendant's may have needed to wipe my seat down after I got up. No joke.
OK, so here's the low down. We have a fab trio of lovers. Ethan is pretty much the dominating person in the relationship. Next, we have Simon, who is a bit on the quiet side, but equally dominating in the bedroom. Then, there's Dana. She's the prize in the group. Both men feast on her constantly. Lucky girl. In this installment of the series, the business is under audit. Well, Dana isn't going to let her boys fall, so she decides to mettle. It's a dangerous risk she takes for sure. It provided a decent story around all the fabulous sex they have.
Now, here was my issue with the book...I loved the sex scenes between Ethan, Simon, and Dana. However, I really didn't like them "interviewing" a potential additional partner. I like the threesome just as they are. Plus, they all seem to really love each other. I'd like to explore more of the loving relationship between the three instead of adding someone else. I also think there is more we could learn about their pasts that could be easily worked into the series. Just a thought.
Overall, I got to see the sex that I wanted and the audit storyline was interesting. I really liked the first two books in the series, so I was anxious to read this one. Even though I had some issues with it, I will continue on with the series. I like Juniper Bell's writing and I like the characters she has created. I'd definitely recommend the series. So, if you're looking for a great series that has some truly hot panty soaker scenes, check this one out! It takes office romance to a whole new level.

I was disappointed, after reading the other installments and mini-installments, to be presented with this one was criminal. I mean what the heck, why would they allow another woman to join the 'firm', in fact why would they even consider having her after they both shared Dana. It feels like one of those no love, just gonna fuck novels which can be a huge turn off and that's what this novel did, it turned me off reading it and any future installments in the series. Juniper Bell killed this series dead for me.

This was an odd book, or actually a short story. It started slow, then got interesting, then fell apart again at the end, probably at least in part because I am not all into F/F scenes. It is a follow up book to Restraining the Receptionist and doesn’t function well as a stand-alone offering.
Dana works for and has a sexual relationship with Ethan and Simon, but she knows nothing about their past-until Margo shows up and threatens them. Soon, Peter Standish, an accountant, shows up to audit the books. Thinking that the auditor is from the IRS, everyone treats him with kid gloves-until the truth comes out. Then Dana takes steps to protect her men and learns more about them. Along the way, Dana experiences two encounters with delivery girl Belinda, neither of which added to the story, and in fact, really detracted from it.
At the beginning, I would have labeled this effort as pornography-a sexual encounter with no redeeming story line. Once past the first chapter, however, the book became interesting. There was still plenty of sex, but there was an actual plot and some character development.
In the end, it was short enough that I didn’t feel I had totally wasted my time, but it wasn’t a book to put in my keeper list.

Juniper Bell’s Unleashing the Receptionist is the third installment to her Receptionist Series. I didn’t have a chance to read the first two books, because of that I would say they should be read in order.
Over all this story seemed more like eroctica than eroctic romance. I’m a fan and frequent reader of both, so that was not an issue for me. Why I think so? Characters engaged in sex with little or no foreplay or romance involved. The happy for now conclusion, and the fact that these stories are about the same characters interacting over the series. I can see Ms. Bell is gifted with writing steamy scenes, and pushing the boundaries of what’s familiar to readers. This book had two F/F scenes, and while they were HOT the circumstances for the first one didn’t feel sexy to me, it felt – cheap.
Where I seemed to disconnect with the book was the scenes between sexual acts. Some of that may be from reading the third book, before the others. For example I was unsure what kind of business the characters actually owned. They are ‘consultants’ and they are reviewing the ‘business plan’ but I never got a feel for what they actually DO. Dana acts as the Receptionist (obviously! *wink*) and Ethan and Simon are partners, but beyond it wasn’t mentioned. The name of their firm didn’t offer any clues, because it was their last names. For me, this could have easily been included somewhere. Even if was something as simple as referring to company at some point as a marketing/law/ technology/real estate firm. I struggled with the flow of the scenes. It just seemed to be thrown together at times and the natural transition from one scene to the other wasn’t present.
There is certainly potential in the book and I found myself turned on several times while reading. I just didn’t find myself loving the story progression or the conflict arcs. I would encourage Ms. Bell to work on her plot development to help the reader connect with the story. If you’re looking for something to heat you up fast, Unleashing the Receptionist will be get the job done.

Dana Arthur couldn’t be happier with her two bosses, Simon Dirk and Ethan Cowell. Both in work and play, her lovers make sure she’s…well, fulfilled. Still, there’s a little part of Dana that’s unsatisfied. Ethan and Simon are close-lipped about their past and until they open up to her, their three-way relationship can’t be equitable.
But Dana’s concerns about her love life will have to be put on hold for a moment. A vengeful former partner is targeting Ethan and Simon’s firm, and with a tax auditor watching their every move, all three members of Cowell & Dirk will have to be on their best behavior. Dana’s not about to stand idly by while the men and business she loves are under attack. Ethan and Simon’s enemy doesn’t know what she’s unleashed when this receptionist goes on the offensive.
UNLEASHING THE RECEPTIONIST zings with red-hot eroticism. Author Juniper Bell mixes tantalizing sex scenes with genuine romantic warmth in the third book in …THE RECEPTIONIST series.
As I have not (yet) read the first two …THE RECEPTIONIST stories, I didn’t have any expectations regarding Dana, Ethan, Simon or their relationship. What I found was a genuinely loving, equal partnership with plenty of kink and a lot of heart. Ms. Bell gave me a great sense of who Dana was right from the start of the book, and the sassy receptionist immediately endeared herself to me. Like Dana, I wanted to know more about Simon and Ethan’s shared past so that the threesome’s already stable relationship would be rock solid. Happily, Ms. Bell peeled back the layers of the dominant Ethan and roguish Simon over the course of UNLEASHING THE RECEPTIONIST, allowing both Dana and the readers to become even more attached to Dana’s two sexy bosses.
UNLEASHING THE RECEPTIONIST was a deliciously naughty read and I greatly enjoyed it. Dana, Simon and Ethan are all characters I quickly grew to care about, which is why it was so easy for me to become invested in their story. I will definitely be reading the first two …THE RECEPTIONIST stories, TRAINING THE RECEPTIONIST and RESTRAINING THE RECEPTIONIST, as well as the short story THANKING THE RECEPTIONIST.
Note 1: UNLEASHING THE RECEPTIONIST features light BDSM and a few scenes of F/F eroticism.

Review up at http://scorchingbookreviews.blogspot....
This is a kinky addition to a kinky series and I recommend that you read the others to fully appreciate the relationship between these very naughty folks. In this tale, we see ménage, girl on girl oral sex, bondage, rope play, spanking and a very naughty peep show for a voyeuristic accountant. All in all it’s scorching hot!
I had read the first two books in this series, so knew what to expect from our characters. Ethan is still the work-driven dominant type (who I’m pretty sure only imposes rules to set punishments), Simon the sweetie pie with a very kinky side and Dana who is a very willful (and very bratty) sub. To be fair, Dana only obeys the rules in the bedroom but I like that type of sub!
In this one, Dana is feeling like she doesn’t have the same value in the relationship as the other two players and that they could quite happily exist without her. I understood her feelings after all, actions speak louder than words. They professed they loved her yet point blank refused to tell her about their relationship from the past, as if she had no place in it. It made me feel a little sad for her because it must be horrible to have two men be the center of your universe but not to be the center of theirs. Of course they tried their hardest to make her feel like she mattered (without revealing their secret) in some very kinky and imaginative ways *phew* There is a LOT of sex and it is all so very hot....Juniper Bell writes very good sex!
I really liked Dana in this one. I liked her spunk and determination about her “plan” to get the firm out of trouble. The scenes with the accountant were fun and sexy (can I just say he was my second favorite character in this tale....I love a sexy nerd character) which gave the whole tale a very uplifting feel. I did feel that Simon and Ethan were a little absent in this one. They seemed to appear only for rules, punishment, sex and explaining plot points; I was disappointed as I love Ethan:/
Overall, this was a very very kinky addition to the series. I loved the rope scene and the opening scenes certainly set up the rest of the novel well If you like your erotica hot and kinky, this is definitely one to try. Start at the beginning though....Ethan needs to be read in full.

Okay, where to start? I love my Dana, Simon and Ethan. Oh how I love them. The perfect menage, will almost perfect. Secrets, an old business partner and being audited are things that don’t sit well with our threesome. In fact, it almost drives them apart.
Dana is my kinda girl. She’s smart, sexy, can play the brat, but she is conflicted. Throughout the last year working for Simon and Ethan, she doesn’t feel appreciated enough. She still considers herself the “receptionist”; not a real part of the company. She doesn’t know how Simon and Ethan met and the true nature of their relationship. They keep assure her that the past is the past and it should be forgotten. Move forward. Well, when an old business partner comes into town, Dana’s had enough. Time to prove that she’s more than just the receptionist and their play toy.
Ethan and Simon can not be more different in everything they do and want. Even physically, they are different. Ethan, is the master of their threesome; Simon the trainer. It has taken me until this book to fully understand and appreciate Ethan. He is not an easy man to like sometimes. Simon, I feel in love with from the start. He’s easy to love; Ethan not so much. When their secret is revealed its a shocker but it fully explains them, their relationship and Dana’s part in the relationship.
This story is a quick, fun read that has everything going for it. Great plot, the pacing never slows down and things that are done in an office that is highly inappropriate. Be warned though, there is spanking, voyeurism, exhibitionism, M/F/M, M/M, F/F (hot), toy action, anal, oral and every menage position that I hadn’t thought of. I needed a fan when I was done reading. Ms. Bell can write erotic with the best of them. The dialogue between the three is hot and sweet.
If you have not picked up any of the books in the series, I highly recommend reading them. For this reader, Unleashing the Receptionist is the best. Ms. Bell dives further into their relationship with great results.

Now, before you even read Unleashing the Receptionist you have to make sure that you read the others in this series so you can understand the bond that Dana, Simon and Ethan have. Because it’s hot and amazing and bite your lip yummy! Imagine working with two amazingly good looking men and more than half of your job is to dress extremely sexy and serve them in every way possible. Oh and don’t worry, their pleasure comes from yours so you will have multiple orgasms a day just for their pure enjoyment. Yea, check that sh*t out!
In this installment of the Receptionist series the threesome find themselves in a bit of a problem when the former partner of Ethan and Simon emerges from the woodwork to ruin their company. And with this new problem comes old secrets and soon Dana finds herself fully emerged in finding out her lovers pasts.
Now with their company on the line, Dana does anything in her power to save the company and her lovers, and when I say anything I mean anything. Cue garters and overly tight blouses. Oh yea did I mention Dana is hot as well?
Unleashing shows a different side of our favorite threesome. We see them grow a lot closer and trust a lot more. There is a lot of sweetness and a lot of reassurance from Ethan and Simon towards Dana but most importantly they confide to her the events of how their own bond became so strong and in turn make the three of them become one.
So if you want spanking, tied up ménage trios, rulers (yes rulers) and tenderness all rolled up into one, read this series, read this book and make sure to keep an extra pair of panties nearby because there will be a puddle, just sayin'!

First off I want to say I was so excited when I found out that there was going to be another Receptionist story! I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE Ethan and Simon, and Dana is one lucky girl that I am very jealous of! If you have not read the Receptionist stories by Juniper bell you are seriously missing out! I first found Juniper Bell when the first book in this series came out and I have stalked her ever since.
Dana is a receptionist who was in need of a job and stumbled upon this job (lucky b.... rat). Anyway, her job isn't just receptionist duties … it also includes keeping her bosses happy and attended too, and they take care of her every want as well (including those she might not voice or even know).
In this third installment of the series we find out about the secret relationship that brought these two men together in the first place and how they became partners in the firm. The firm has secrets of its own that are about to be revealed and this has disturbed Dana's happy life and her men. Dana, wanting to show she can be an asset to the men and the firm, sets out to use her skills to put things right.
Dana has set her mind to making sure her men and the firm go unharmed no matter what she has to do. Cameras, sexy outfits, and even afternoon lunches, she will complete this mission no matter what rules she breaks. Thankfully rule breaking can be fun when your punishment is given to you by two of the most sexy, clever, and creative men.
This is a fun, sexy, erotic romance with great characters, interesting plot, interesting office dynamics and let’s not forget the touch of kink … Juniper Bell once again has me wanting to change professions.

This is the third in the Receptionist series and I feel like it was a good continuation of the series. The sexual relationship between Dana, Ethan, and Simon is pretty hot and steamy. There are a few scenes thrown in this one that I am not sure I felt fit perfectly. I had a hard time understanding if the characters would really do those things. There were also times when I felt like the story could have been a little shorter and it would have been a stronger book. That being said I did enjoy the overall story arc of this book. It was interesting to have the previous owner of the company come in and stir trouble. The sex scenes were hot and there was a bit more development in the relationship between the characters. I am glad that we delved into the past of the men a bit in this one because I was curious how they met. ALl in all I would recommend reading this one if you've read the other two. It adds to the previous books in the series.

This is the third in the Receptionist series and I feel like it was a good continuation of the series. The sexual relationship between Dana, Ethan, and Simon is pretty hot and steamy. There are a few scenes thrown in this one that I am not sure I felt fit perfectly. I had a hard time understanding if the characters would really do those things. There were also times when I felt like the story could have been a little shorter and it would have been a stronger book. That being said I did enjoy the overall story arc of this book. It was interesting to have the previous owner of the company come in and stir trouble. The sex scenes were hot and there was a bit more development in the relationship between the characters. I am glad that we delved into the past of the men a bit in this one because I was curious how they met. ALl in all I would recommend reading this one if you've read the other two. It adds to the previous books in the series.

This is one naughty trio, but they fit. Dana sure got lucky when she applied for a job there. Well, I guess the guys got lucky, too, that she was up for everything they wanted to do.
This is the third one, so they're already solid as a trio, though Dana still feels a little bit like a third wheel because they won't talk about their past. But a more recent part of their past is coming back to haunt them.
Honestly the plot line with Margo was... I dunno... I guess necessary because it's why we get the new voyeur-accountant-nerdy dude. Still not sure what the girl from the Chinese restaurant is all about, but it provided the boys with a couple of f/f scenes. I almost feel bad for the girl though... they never get any of Simon and Ethan.
Ultimately, we learn the story of how Ethan and Simon met, and why they don't talk about it is crystal clear.
So this wasn't my favorite, but it was a decent story.

I must confess...I am seriously addicted to this series! And I am sad to realize that now I have finished reading the last Receptionist book.
Dana Arthur thoroughly enjoys her job at Cowell and Dirk. Instead of doing the same, boring receptionist duties, she spends most of her time in kinky sexual positions with her two bosses. And business is good.
Until Margo Lang, their former partner flies in on her broomstick and stakes her claim on a portion of the company. When she doesn't get her way, she makes threats that quickly turn into problems. And then her precious Ethan and Simon get threatened, Dana Arthur changes her role. From the obedient receptionist to ass-kicker.
With scorching heat that threatened to set my Kindle on fire, this was a page-turner that took me less than a day to complete. A book...no, a series, that I will be reading again and again.

well to be very honest I loved how Juniper didn't just stop at happily ever after, and nobody find out anything about Simon and Ethan. this book is a very good book. it's the perfect ending to "low-life" story. lots of things stuck out to me in this series. for one, never once did i feel cheated on information of either side. and just like a DOM you have to be patient to get the juicy stuff.

I love the books in this series. Always fun, hot, and a nice break after something extremely intense.

I loved the first 2 in this series but this one was just ok for me. They sure are a naughty trio though. ;))

Loved the book but not sure if I liked them adding in the delivery girl at times. Hot scenes.

So good. Great plot, Dana and her men grow their relationship. Sexy sexy sexy. Wish this series would continue - that is pretty much the highest compliment I can give.

More like 3.5 stars for me. I loved the chemistry between the protas but was a bit bored by the rest of the plot. I adore Dana! She is so feisty and funny. <3 her!
