Mar Coffey has recently moved back to the small town she grew up in, River Falls.
On the day she moves back, she jokingly tells a man to jump off a bridge, and he does.
He requests a date for following through.
At first, she says no, but what could one date hurt?
When what she thinks is going to be a one-night stand leads to another, she somehow finds herself looking forward to spending more and more time with this wrestler named Sihn.
One night, Sihn invites his best friend Ruin over and all three of their lives turn upside down.
This is a super spicy Throuple rom-com with adult themes containing MATURE and GRAPHIC content. MFM why-choose style with an HEA. No swords cross.
Advanced Reader Copy Review. These are my legitimate thoughts on the book (y’all know I’m picky with my Goodreads stars) . If you like this book, you’ll also enjoy Thirty, Flirty, and Dumb by the same author.
This book is a firecracker with a spice level of 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️. The MFM dynamic adds a unique layer of intensity, and the sexual tension, combined with sharp wit, keeps you hooked.
The inevitable “fight” that usually annoys me in romance novels felt completely justified here, adding depth to the story. This is one of those rare books where you start reading and suddenly realize you’re halfway through. I finished it in just 24 hours!
The plot flows smoothly without any dull moments. The living room scene, in particular, was electrifying and reminiscent of the intensity I loved in the Madison Kate pool scene.
This book blends passion, tension, and heartfelt moments, with lines like, “Everything about you is something I value,” that stick with you. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a thrilling, spicy read that’s hard to put down!

This was a great quick, fast-paced spicy MFM read. I love reading menage, and this one was executed perfectly. I enjoyed the strong FMC & love that she worked in a library. Ruin is definitely my favorite ~swoon~. This is different than the menage books I usually read, and I found it intriguing. It might sound cheesy, but I love books that have lots of clever quotes in them, and this one had many! If you like wrestling, menage, coffee shops, gamers, small town tropes, you'll love this one!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this incredibly spicy novel by T.M. Shivener! The opening immediately grabbed my attention. The witty banter and dialogue were both humorous and relatable. This story had a great flow and was a quick, easy read. The spicy scenes were described vividly. The plot and character development were excellent. I cannot wait to get a physical copy of this book and hope for an audiobook version so my friends who listen to audiobooks can also enjoy this novel. Bravo Tanji👏🏼! Rated ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!
I found this book to be a thoroughly refreshing read, engaging from start to finish. The author strikes a perfect balance between world-building and character development, leaving the reader satisfied yet eager for more. As a fan of dark romance and fantasy, I appreciated the change of pace offered by this lighthearted romantic comedy. The mature themes and intimate scenes are handled tastefully, without feeling forced or gratuitous. The natural progression of the romance is a notable strength of the book.
I was particularly pleased to see a main female character who defies common tropes - she's depicted as confident, curvy, and with beautiful curly hair. The introduction of Sihn, the male lead, is equally well done, and their chemistry is undeniable.
Overall, I highly recommend this book. It's a captivating and enjoyable read, and I encourage you to add it to your list.
OMG-best book ever I could not put this book down. I stayed up til 4am reading. This was a quick, easy, steamy read. The characters were so real. They weren’t perfect people you read about in some books. They had flaws. Mar was not your typical lead character which made reading about her more enjoyable. She had problems with her job and finding her direction in life. Loved her wit and humor and her confident side. The MFM dynamic was unexpected but very hot. I couldn’t put the book down waiting to see what happens next. My favorite quote was “He is going to ruin me for all other men and I am going to let him.” You need to read this book!!!! I’ve read it twice in the last 3 weeks.
This author knows how to write a freaking novel! This book had me in an absolute chokehold! It was so hard for me to put this book down and get stuff around the house done. I like that the book wasn’t slow to get to ANY detail! I like a slow burn book just as much as the next girl, but I was definitely glad that this one burned fast.This book spoke to me from the beginning because I too was going to be a teacher after finishing school, the only difference is that I didn’t go to college at all. The instant connection between Mar and Sihn is unmatchable, like that is freaking goals type stuff! I sure hope this isn’t the last we see of Mar and Sihn! Oh and we can NOT forget about Ruin!
I really enjoyed this book, it was quirky, quick and SPICY. It truly makes you fall in love with the dynamic between the characters and the witty conversations makes this book fun to read. I want to move to River Falls to experience the bridge, Coffey Cafe, and POW! There are a couple of unexpected revelations, and additions that I thought were great for the story. You can tell that T.M. Shivener cares about her characters and making them come to life and she does a great job of doing so. I highly recommend this book!
Once again, Shivener did not disappoint. So much… growth, emotion, action, suspense, heartache... It is all here. I had no idea what I was getting into when I opened this book, but any expectations were surpassed. Freaking HOT! Right from the start. Forget the angst, don't worry there, satisfaction is guaranteed from the beginning. The main character is relatable for any female, the men are typical plus a million. I really hope there is more to this story, or at least a spin-off.
I was so excited to read this new book 📖. It did not disappoint and kept my attention through all the chapters. I enjoyed the fun chapter titles & discovering how they fit into the story. I felt it was easy to get to know the characters & dive into their interactions. The steamy scenes were HOT but not the focus of the whole book. I look forward to reading Tanji’s next publication 💜. I’m also VERY thankful I have always let my syrup in the refrigerator!!!
I follow this author. I have read all her books. This is another great read!! It is an adult book. She has a great storyline. Great character development. It keeps you wondering where the story is going. Not predictable at all. Definitely different than her other books. A new direction for her. Very entertaining read.
When Mar comes back to her childhood town, she meets Sihn, and her life is never the same. In this very racy story, we experience life with Mar, Sihn, and his friend Ruin. This is a spicy, saucy book, that you are going to love!!
Another great read from TM Shivener. Nice spicy content with a great ending. 💙 I highly recommend her books to my friends or anyone interested in a great storyline.
Omg I freaking loved this book!!! I love all the authors books and I can’t wait for more books!!! This book had me wanting to read and read it . It had just the right amount of spicy 🌶️ 🥵I loved the development of the characters as well.
Sihn and Ruin in River Falls had my attention from the jump. Pun intended. I was on vacation while reading this book and I found myself wondering about what the characters do next, what’s the next fantasy they indulge in and where the next chapter would lead. I couldn’t wait to get a free moment to splurge on a few chapters. I absolutely loved how the story switched between the two main characters so often and that the spiciness happened quickly and not drawn out until halfway through the book. It was quick to get to but still gave that buildup you get when reading similar books. I would’ve finished this book within two days if I was able to, like I have in the past with other T.M. Shivener books. This is a story I could read over and over. I also will never look at maple syrup the same again. Once you know, you know. I found myself wanting to visit River Falls, the Coffey Cafe, Library and a match at POW!
