Considered untouchable by her kin, Kyra has been an outcast all her life. Then two massive, battle-hardened human warriors stride into her woods on a quest to kill a giant and claim a great reward, and after her attempt at petty thievery is foiled, she finds herself stripped naked and soundly spanked.
But that is only the beginning, for the reward for the death of the giant is not only gold and jewels, but the hand of an elf-maiden in marriage, and Kyra is shocked to the core when she learns that the humans have not only completed the quest which cost the life of every previous adventurer, but they have chosen her as their prize.
Taric and Draeven neither understand nor concern themselves with Kyra’s status as an outcast—all they see is the most beautiful of all the elves, a woman who they have both longed to claim as their own and fill with their seed since they first set eyes upon her. Raised as brothers, they have shared many women before, and now they will share a wife—and take her in any way they please, as often as they please, until she bears a son for them… the half-elven son of giantslayers whose birth has long been foretold.
Kyra, who had never expected to feel the pleasure of a man’s gentle touch, now must submit herself to the fierce, insatiable needs of two hulking barbarians. Yet something stirs within her, and though she blushes with shame at the very thought, she wonders if a day will come soon when she will beg for more.

It was an ok read....Wasn't overly happy with some of the sex scenes, especially the early ones as they were bordering on rape! I also cringed a bit at some of the punishments dished out too.....One I think I probably could have done without reading!
Fantasy MFM menage romance with great world-building. Smutty with dirty talking dominant H's and a stubborn spirited elf h who gives them a h*ll of a chase, I enjoyed this book hugely!! 4.5 stars!
If you want to read smut (hardcore kinda, threesome, ...) and don't care about romantizating rape... It is for you
It is from 100+ page book 90% smut/nudity and 10% actual plot
*Possible spoilers*
The book does NOT have any much of a plot. For real the summary of the book is the whole plot of the book. Nothing more. Two guys (cousins) punishing elf girl by tearing all her clothes off and then beat her a$$ (even tho she begged to stop and cried they didn't). Right after doing that they sandwitched her between them and slept like that.... After treating her to tie her up against her will to tree so after their mission they can "take her" like what? (She made them believe that she will stay just to not tie her up) [I want to mention that all of this is happening just in chapter 1]
Afterwards it is not much interesting: they kill the giant, searching for Kyra (MC), them being super angry, then they were invited to the elf kingdom to pick a wife (yes you heard that right...WIFE FOR BOTH (THE ONE THEY WILL SHARE))
After all this so called plot they find Kyra about to be executed (she is a thief if you didn't know till now) and ofc them being the "heroes of the day" "saved her" by making her their wife against her will like duuude what.
Obviously as expected after that is again smut (rape is better name for it because she basically begged for them to stop and not do it).
Smut continues for a looooooong while: with both guys or only with one. ............................................................ To end this maddness:
What you can find in the book (good and bad): ⚠️Rape ⚠️Suicide attempt ⚠️Blood ⚠️Mature language 🔸Smut 🔸Pregnancy trope 🔸Threesomes (MxFxM) 🔸Fantasy couple (HumanxElfxHuman)

I found this to be a bit campy but as I love that and am very fond of fantasy books, this book mostly worked for me. The heroes are a bit immature occasionally and yet, still, I really enjoyed reading it.
***Be warned that there is a lot of non-consensual everything going on in this book. Do I agree with that sort of thing in real life? NO! Do I like reading about it sometimes in a fantasy setting? Apparently so as I liked this book a lot. I even looked to see if there was a sequel as the book seemed to be setting up for a series but I couldn't find one. *sigh*
Oh well, it is a stand-alone and does NOT end in a cliffhanger. I recommend this to anyone who like reading about elves who are not the regular elves you can read about in a lot of books, anyone who likes caveman type alpha barbarian heroes who have moments of sweetness and anyone who likes menage. I had fun reading it and I hope you do too.
Wow! Not in a good way! I could not finish it. Rapey, awful misogyny that defys logic and reason. Honestly it felt like it had been put together by a male predator who constantly tries to gaslight and excuses his crimes. Constant refering to her as a girl or childlike and making way too many comparisons to not verge on distrubing.While trying to turn a kink into something altogether too sinister.
I tried to finish this story, but just couldn't. I didn't find anything enjoyable in the first 3-4 chapters. Basically, the heroes will rape her if she doesn't cooperate. Nothing erotic about this.
Not my normal cup of tea. Threesomes are all well and good, but non-consent is usually where I draw the line. And the entire first part of this book is non-consensual. The second half of the book was the woman hoping the men liked having sex with her enough to keep her alive after endangering her life.
That said it was superbly well written. Pace, plot, character development, world building, all 5 stars. Action scenes and sex scenes alike were excellent. This is an amazing writer and I would be interested in reading more of her stuff if it was less rape/forced consent.
One word: BORING! The story had potential to be sensually hot and interesting but fell short. The female lead was fine but the men were sexist pigs in the bedroom, very immature at times when they would get jealous, and over all just annoying. I did not see the connection between any of the characters and the whole thing just seemed forced. Sorry.
This is a wonderful read filled with action and adventure This was a story filled with action and adventure and a good siding of humour along with lots of sexy interactions between two giant hunters and an extremely naughty slf who is out to cause nothing but trouble and strife. Draven and Taric are as close as brothers and all of their life they have known that one day they would hunt down and slay the Giant of the forest and that they would then find the love of their lives the most beautiful elf female that would become their wife. They had never known their mother be wrong with any of the things that she had foreseen in her mind as the future and what it held for them and so the boys had always believed that she had told them would come to pass and then when they had first seen Kyra they had known that they had found their future as a family, their chance of children and a home. This is a truly delightful read and I can not express how much you will thoroughly enjoy this wonderful story, It was a wonderful read. I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader Copy I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing.
Taric and Draeven are great warriors and friends. When they were born, it was foretold that they would be the ones to finally kill the giant that controlled the forest. In payment for killing the giant and returning the elf shield the giant stole, they would be given their choice of a elf maidens to be their bride. Another prophecy stated that an half elf son of giant killer would finally be the one to defeat the dark wizard. Taric and Draeven trained all their lives to be great warriors and now the time has come to go after the giant. They have been walking in the giant's woods for four days and have been feeling of being followed. They soon find out they are being followed by an elf female outcast and they trap her. She had been planning of robbing them since they would have no use of their things after the giant kills them. Taric and Draeven don't like her attitude so they give her a good spanking. They also think she is very pretty and easily controlled so they plan to choose her as their elf maiden. However when they are fighting the giant, she takes off with their things. Now they have to teach her a lesson, claim her as their bride and fufill the prophecy

The sexscenes were hot if you like strong spankings and dominance, the story was clumsy and meh. And it very much falls into the alpha males claiming their object of desire category. At least there are no descriptions of how her smell makes them do it or how they are overcome with lust that means that they can't control them self.
The men acted really entitled towards Kyra's body even before they were in a relationship with her. Their first sexual encounter is a sexual assault dressed up as a spanking and dominance. Once they were in a relationship with her they act like she is their sex doll and walking womb. They do have strong feelings for her, but I don't think it excuses the way the author romanticizes their rather abusive behaviour toward Kyra. At no point is their spankings of her consensual. The sex becomes very consensual but it starts out in the "you are wet, so you must like it"-category which sucks. As I said, the actually sex scenes are hot and fun, if you can forget the context of them, which is kind of hard.
Trigger warnings: Non con, forced marriage, sexual assault, abusive behaviour
If someone want to recommend me good fantasy erotica, I am all ears.
I really liked this book. I found it very well written and described. The three main characters are very real and become very invested in eachother. Their relationship grows. There are plenty of hot spicy erotic scenes between Kyra and her husbands as well as some disciplinary spankings. I thought that the elves were a little one dimensional. I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book and I very highly recommend it. This story draws the reader in and reads quickly. Great read. Real characters. Wonderful fantasy story.
Taric and Draeven are giant slayers. They run into Krya and she steals from them and they punish her. The reward is to marry an elf. They choose Kyra so now she will have two giant men. There is some spanking and it is a menage or reverse harem. I found that the scenes were well written and I enjoy a good fantasy book. I would read more by Korey Mae Johnson. I thought it was a great story and it flowed right along. I loved how Taric and Draeven were written. Krya was a cutie. Great story.

Lyra follows Taric and Draeuan through the woods. They are hunting a giant and she is planning on taking their stuff because she figures they will be killed by the giant. They catch her and spank her for trying to steal from them. The sex and punishments ensue and the two men decide to claim her as their wife . The elves want them gone and they take their elf wife and leave. The prophecy needs to be completed. She must give them sons. All in all I really enjoyed this book. The story was good.
Story of shared menage with spankings, some humor, action, sexual scenes and a great storyline. Kyra is an outcast elve that Dravern and Taric capture. They are there to deal with a giant. The men would varied the spanking scenes which gave the story a little more spice. I usually don't read Elven stories but this one was pretty good. Will check out other stories by this author.

I truly enjoyed reading this story 😃. It's an amazing adaptation of others that I've read, but I liked this one BEST 😄. Fantastic action, intense situations, nasty people and a great cast of characters 😊. Thanks so much Korey Mae, I'm looking forward to reading more 🤓.
The prophecy led them to her... Taric and his cousin Draevan were rewarded with Kyra. She was an outcast among her own people. They were determined to make her their shared queen. I received a free copy of this book. This review was posted voluntarily.
Small inconsistent typos that weren’t enough to destroy my love for this story. This is my second book by this author both read through KU which I’m very grateful for.
3 1/2 stars Fairly short, but long enough to have a satisfying romance & interesting characters. Really enjoyed this book, probably would've given it more stars if it was longer & had more intimacy.
This is a first time author for me and also my first time reading fantasy. I normally don't read fantasy because it drags out and it's hard to get into. I read a sample first and was instantly drawn in. I finished this in a matter of hours. I couldn't pull myself away from reading it. The characters in this story Kyra, Taric, and Draevan all made me feel for them in different ways.
Kyra is innocent and insecure, she is an outcast. She differs from other Elves in that she hides, she is not part of the kingdom. She is full of witty sarcasm, quick to snap back at Taric and Draevan. I could strongly relate to Kyra's insecurity. I felt as if I were a shadow watching the story play out.
Draevan has never allowed himself to feel for another woman, his mother had foreseen that he and his cousin would slay the giant and marry the she-elf given to them as payment. He waited for the day when he would find her. Kyra instantly softens Draevan even if he refuses to admit it at first. Draevan instantly hits me as the dominant one between him and Taric.
Taric is the softer one, he feels for Kyra although as the story goes on, he quickly finds his dominate bone. To me, he is the more tender lover. Taking his time with Kyra, enjoying her with each stroke.
As the story progresses you learn more about the characters and watch them grow. They learn to trust each other and become to depend on each other. If Kyra hadn't been so stubborn I think this would have made the story slow and boring. With her sacasm and stubborness she makes the story a good read. This story has suspense, romance, and a wonderful storyline. I love that you see the jealously between Taric and Draevan over sharing a wife, you see that all the characters are still working out their flaws and learning to cherish one another, not fight.
Shared Between Them has made me reconsider reading Fantasy. I enjoyed reading this and look forward to a possible sequel. This story will leave you panting and wanting more. You'll feel like you have come to know them personally. I highly recommend Shared Between Them especially if your like me, you don't typically give fantasy a chance. I will be adding more of Korey Mae Johnson to my bookshelf this year.
3 stars.. maybe i expected more. I love the elf factor. The show of jealousy between both males got a lil annoying. Because of the fact they themselves made a pact between them to share. But then I myself being on a chain with 2 other sisters, jealousy rears up ever so often. A good read, the sex scenes were yay! So yeah enjoy it!!
It started with a prophecy, and ended with love. In between, there’s giants to kill, a king to threaten and a elfen woman to woo! There’s plenty of steamy scenes between “don’t-take-no-for-an-answer” men and one strong-willed wilds-savvy woman. A deliciously naughty tale!
