3000 Miles

by K.C. Savage

MIGUEL
Sheridan Maxwell bowled me over in an elevator in Las Vegas. Her beauty captivated me. After our sinful fun, she disappeared from my life. Since I’m married with two sons, that’s probably for the best. But I can’t stop thinking about her. Her blue eyes. Her wavy blonde locks. Her soft pale skin. My marriage isn’t the best, in fact it’s boring. I try to make it exciting, but my wife isn’t interested. So, I go online to find my blonde beauty, and when I do, we connect quickly. She has no idea I am the man from the elevator. Our fun lasts for months, until my wife finds out. I do what I do to save my marriage, although my heart is crushed, and I hate myself for hurting Sheridan. I vow to find her again…one day.

SHERIDAN
I’m married to the top neurosurgeon in Florida.I own my own real estate firm. My twin sister, Stephania, and I own a bookstore/coffee shop. We have everything we'd ever need or want. But I’m empty inside. Until I meet a hot ass Latino online. He stirs every part of my body up into a frenzy with his photos and videos. His velvety voice melts me when he voice f*cks me. I don’t know this man’s name. We grow close, too close for being 3000 miles apart and married to others. Then he disappears from our chat, and I’m devastated…

Read in one afternoon. It was a good book, but I think the affair trope isn't for me. Let me explain, I am a married woman, and have been married for a long time. If my marriage takes a dip, I don't find an elevator man to help me get over it. However, this book is fiction and I'm good with that. The time line moved quickly. The concept of falling in love with our every being together is new and I like the idea very much! The ending between the two marriages made me very sad. But I felt like the author did it with dignity. I also love that the main characters were "older". Too often I'm reading romance of college age couples and I can feel disconnected from them mentally. With the characters being in their 40s and 50s with teenagers, I felt their lives more personally.

3000 miles was such a great book. It hooked me in and I had to finish and see how Sheridan’s life ended up. The trope this book has I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about it, but it really blurs lines and you kind of start cheering it on based on the love that you see start blooming. I was so pleased with how this ended even though there was some unexpected twists. I’m so happy for Sheridan and Miguel and loved reading their story.

3000 Miles bc KC Savage is a contemporary romance novel. This is one of those complicated novels because of the subject matter it delves into. The characters are married to other people and they are striving to make their marriages work but it is complicated like everything in life is. Then they meet and everything becomes more complicated. When we think of reading about a possible trope involving marriages we think it’s so cut and dry but is it? This book to me challenges your thoughts on that because it makes you look hard at things. Lines blur on what really is right and wrong because things are not always so simple. THAT is how well this book is written on the subject. KC Savage does a fabulous job making you think and making the line blur.
I definitely recommend this book and enjoyed it. I can not wait for the next one.

[Marie-Claude Carrière · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this read but ooh my did I feel bad/guilty for liking Miguel and Sheridan flirting with each other online. I felt as guilty as if I was the one cheating on Bryce or Rosa 🙈😂 It was very refreshing reading a book where the couple are older (58 & 48) 👌❤️

The book starts strong in the spice and angst departement but it dies down a bit during the plot twist but the story keeps you interested with the longing and both MC separate family problems.

It was a short and easy read, with touchy subjects so Beware there is ALOT of cheating and death.

Great read and I definitely recommend it.
I had a hard time putting it down and if I could have I would have easily read it in a day 🖤

⭐4/5🌶️2/5

Okay okay.. so first things first this book contains a cheating trope so if that’s not for you then you can skip this!

Secondly, there are so many twists and turns to this book that I had no idea what was going to happen next which was amazing. I wasn’t sure how it was going to play out but it’s done brilliantly and with care. There’s a good dose of spice mixed in with the complicated emotions of being human.

I love how the relationship has ups and downs and the struggles that each main character goes through.

If you’re willing to try the cheating trope, I’d definitely say this is a good one to go for!

🌟🌟🌟🌟/5 for the experience

So Savage has taken a first of mine, this is the first time reading a cheating/affair troupe, you don’t really see many books with this troupe and being a married woman myself I wasn’t sure how I’d take it, but being and open minded reader who will try any troupe I jumped in, and in all honesty I’m glad I did. Savage created a book with real life struggles and yes I don’t condone cheating in real life, but this is a book, a work of fiction.
The story, emotions and characters were done well and I enjoyed that the characters were older (48 and 58) I enjoyed the flirtatious chemistry between Sheridan and Miguel though also felt guilty for Bryce and Rosa. Overall all it was a good read.

[KandieKane]

This is a cute story of two people stuck in marriages that aren't working and their struggles to let go in order to try to one they really want. It could be emotionally triggering in many ways for some but it has a good ending.

I went into this blind and when I read cheating trope, I figured MC gets cheated on and it's revenge plot. This is more both main characters are doing the cheating then revenge plot.

I wish the female lead was a bit stronger, it was frustrating to watch her back down and not trust instincts.

[Jolynn Bailey · Rating 4 out of 5]

I give the characters kudos for trying to make their marriages work even when the writing was on the wall. That being said I was impressed how KC wrote this particular trope, and the questions that were raised. This is outside my normal reading genres however I was intrigued by it. Overall, I would recommend it, I loved the characters and being inside their heads, as I said it was beautifully written for the subject matter.

[Nichole Spencer · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read this in one day, and enjoyed it. There is a decent amount of spice. Some moments made me smile, others made me feel a little sad. Sheridan and Miguel have a connection that is so strong, and as a reader you can feel that. A definite read for those that believe in second chance love or soul mates.

[Tabitha Michelle · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short and Spicy! This takes finding love on an elevator to a whole new level.
The story grips you in from the first page and is so well written.

Sheridan is convinced her husband is having an affair and so she seeks revenge elsewhere. Thinking she’d never see the mysterious elevator man again - little does she know he gets in touch. From there it’s a whirlwind of secrets, dirty chats and finally getting what they want, without spouses holding them back at the end.

[Heather Sprague · Rating 5 out of 5]

So many emotions! I wasn't sure at first since there is TW:cheating, but wow. I had all the feelings for most of the characters.
Oh, Sheridan, I love your strength even if I wanted to yell at you a few times.

[Michele Del Rey · Rating 5 out of 5]

Sheridan and Miguel meet and have an instant connection. They find eachother again online but they are both married. This book was hot as heck but heartbreaking in many ways. I loved the chemistry and the writing pulled me in from the beginning.

Sheridan + Miguel = Fire

"3000 Miles" by KC Savage was pure, naughty fun with a fiery edge. Sheridan and Miguel? Their chemistry was off-the-charts explosive. Every glance, every word, every touch between them felt like it could set the pages on fire. Sheridan’s sass clashed perfectly with Miguel’s intense, dominant energy—and the result? A slow-burn that never cooled down.

This wasn’t just a spicy fling; it was longing, lust, and an emotional tug-of-war that spanned continents. The tension was thick, the banter sharp, and the spice? Unapologetically hot.

KC Savage gave us a romance that felt like foreplay from start to finish—and I was absolutely here for it.

My rating is:
5⭐/5
5🥵/5

Not enough stars!!!
Holy hotness. Wow! Sheridan and Miguel meet quite unexpectedly. She literally nearly knocks him over. He steals her business card ( thankfully) and proceeds to ummm...have quite a meeting with her in the elevator.

They spark up a "friendship" on line...sexting and develop feelings for one another. Only they don't realize these feelings until the "relationship " comes to a screeching halt when Miguel's wife finds Sheridan's picture.

Can these two live with their spouses happily? Will they ever get a happy ending for themselves?

Wow....the pages of this book were on fire. Good heavens, I sat next to this author at a book eventand bought one book...wth was i thinking...I should have bought them all! Amazing!!!

[Helena · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow… 3000 Miles is an emotionally charged, provocative rollercoaster of desire, discontent, and the haunting consequences of forbidden connection. From the moment Sheridan Maxwell literally collides with the unnamed narrator in a Vegas elevator, I was hooked. There’s instant chemistry, a kind of reckless magnetism that sets the tone for a story that is as steamy as it is complicated.

What makes this book stand out isn’t just the heat between the two leads though there's plenty of that but how raw and real their emotional battles are. Both characters are stuck in marriages that look great on paper but are deeply unfulfilling. Their online affair is a form of escape, but it quickly becomes more than that. I really felt the ache, the longing, and the messy, gut-wrenching emotions that come with wanting something or someone you shouldn’t.

Sheridan is a powerhouse successful, sharp, and layered with vulnerability. Her loneliness beneath the surface of her seemingly perfect life is painfully relatable. And the male lead? Flawed, selfish, but human. His internal conflict between duty and desire felt authentic, even if I wanted to shake him at times for the choices he made.

There’s a twist of identity (him not telling her who he really is) that adds a dramatic punch, and when everything unravels, it hits hard. I appreciated that K.C. Savage didn’t sugarcoat the fallout. The ending leaves you with a lingering ache, a sense of unfinished business, but also hope.

[Leah Hortin · Rating 2 out of 5]

A lot of people will likely struggle with the infidelity elements of this book... but that wasn't really my issue. The whole thing came off as a caricature of unhappy marriages. The MMC has the frigid, unforgiving wife, the FMC is neglected by her successful husband (and what happens with him was majorly eyeroll). I mean, yeah, it is a set up for infidelity but it was so cliche.

The main problem is that never, not once, was I rooting for the MCs. Something on the page didn't translate - there wasn't great relationship or character development. We didn't get a glimpse into the MC's relationship beyond sexting so the leap to 'oh my god you're my soulmate' came off as ridiculous. The middle section of the book was highly repetitive and the sexiness of it all just wasn't there for me.

I will say I did appreciate the older MC's, this is a reverse age gap with her at 58 and him at 48 I believe.

[Audrey Halliwell · Rating 5 out of 5]

Sheridan and Miguel are strangers who briefly meet in an elevator in Vegas. They soon become online friends/lovers. Both of their marriages to other people are in trouble.

This novella navigates troubling marriages, and knowing when it's time to let go. I appreciated how both characters were older. I believe Miguel was pushing 50 and Sheridan 60. They were both deep in their careers and varying circumstances with family.

I consumed this in a day. It was very entertaining, gripping, and emotional. It does contain cheating but does have a HEA. I did get a review copy for free, but in no way did that influence my review. I personally don't have issues with the cheating trope, but it may not be for everyone.

[Alexandra · Rating 5 out of 5]

Before starting this book, please note that this deals with the cheating trope so please keep that in mind when reading this book. Like several others who have read this book, it was a little challenging to get behind due to the nature of the trope but the way that the author writes the characters and what each are dealing with, it's hard not to start rooting for Sheridan and Miguel and for them to get their happy ending especially as the author delves into each of their personal lives and the struggles they are going through. This book focuses more on their relationship with each other and those around them more so than focusing on those intense spicy scenes. This book has so many twists and turns that it will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.

[Heather · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great story

This story is complicated since it delves into a subject matter that is a bit touchy, but the overall story was fantastic. The main characters, Sheridan and Miguel, are married – but to other people, and they are trying to make their marriages work. When they meet – sparks fly, but once again they are married to other people which is why it’s a bit touchy. But can it be wrong if they are possible soulmates?

This was a great read with definite spicy moments, and I loved it overall.

[Allison Coley · Rating 5 out of 5]

Make sure to read the trigger warnings at the beginning of this book. Your mental health is important. I enjoyed the traveling adventures this book took me on. KC did so well on character building and really making you get into the book. Its easy to follow everything that is happening and trust me when I say a lot happens within this book! KC kept me on the edge of my chair and shocked me with all of the different plot twists.

[Micki-D · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kc Savage does it again another hot spicy book. It starts strong in the spice department, then tames down to draw you into the story line. You all go through so many emotions reading this book, feeling for the characters and their desires.
