Auctioned #3

Auctioned to the Prisoners

Rate this book
When I sold myself to save my sister’s life, I never expected three violent prisoners to steal my heart in the process.

Thirty days is all I have to raise the money to help my sister. At the auction, I expect to be bought to service a rich man’s every desire. But instead, I’m sold to a prison warden—and his debts become mine to repay.

Now, I’m trapped in a maximum-security prison, tasked with ‘servicing’ three dangerous men for the next month.

Kinkaid is the brooding leader with a body as hard as steel and a need to control that borders on obsessive.

Hyde is unpredictable and haunted by his demons, flipping between gentle and cruel faster than I can handle.

And Rock is a quiet giant who hides his pain beneath his imposing form and whose needs I struggle to determine.

They take what they want from me, hungry for release, human contact, and the simple reminder of the men they were outside the high walls. They’re supposed to be criminals, but beneath their tough exteriors, I see something more—loyalty, vulnerability, even kindness. And, to my shock, I find myself falling for all three of them.

With each day that passes, the lines blur between freedom and captivity, desire and love. As our connection deepens, I’m faced with an impossible leave them behind when my time is up, or risk everything to be with the men I never expected to love.

But prison walls aren’t the only barriers between us—and in this world, the most dangerous thing you can lose is your heart.

Auctioned to the Prisoners is a standalone romance in the Auctioned Series with a happily ever after ending.

🔥 Trapped. Tempted. Claimed. Are You Ready to be taken captive? 🔥

What happens when a woman is locked🔒 away with three dangerous men? Well, you're about to find out in Auctioned to the Prisoners. AUCTIONED TO THE PRISONERS A PRISON REVERSE HAREM ROMANCE (AUCTIONED SERIES Book 4) by Stephanie Brother
The Auctioned Series always starts with the heroine getting sold into a new situation. This time, she's bought by a prison warden who owes a great debt to three of his inmates.

Sometimes, characters come to me and gnaw my brain until I give them a voice. Kinkaid, Hyde, and Rock were like that, but I couldn't write their story until their perfect heroine revealed herself. Lory is a tough cookie, and broken enough to understand three damaged men. I hope you enjoy their story, and find a place in your heart for three morally gray men who are on a journey of redemption, striving to be better.

Here's a little teaser...

🔒I sold myself to save my sister.
🔒Now I’m owned by three violent prisoners
🔒They take what they want from my body
🔒They’re supposed to be criminals, but I see something more
🔒Can I escape captivity with my heart in one piece?

3.5 Stars.

A bit of a slow, majorly uninteresting start but once we are at the prison the story picks up speed.

S/O to the lady who asked for the recommendation on Reddit and the one who suggested this book. The Lory+Hyde soothing dynamic gets 1000%, also Kinkaid with the cock warming.

Such a cheesy, typical cover. Highlighted how when I think of reverse harem as a sub genre to read I immediately focus on Omegaverse stories. Some good smut.

Great Book!!!

I enjoyed reading Auctioned To The Prisoners(Auctioned Series Book 3)!!! All about Lory twenty six year old waitress & Kincaid, Hyde & Rock three prisoners. Harden criminals that are not getting out any time soon, who did a favor for the warden, and he’s rewarding them with a women for 30 days in the sub-basement of the prison. Lory auctioned herself off, because her sister is in a very abusive relationship and she needs the money to get Kennedy and her two kids out before the boyfriend does irrevocable damage. Lory was bought & paid for by the warden, in order to get her money, she spends 30 days & nights with three burley guys locked in the prison. Read about Lory & Kincaid, Hyde & Rock and see if life as they know it can change. Definite Read!!!!

Lori (FMC) makes the decision to auction herself off to help her sister. 30 days in the hands of her buyer who turns out to be 3 prisoners - Kincade, Hyde and Rock who are all hardened criminals (or so they seemed) who are all doing time in prison. All of which have been hurt in some form from events in their lives. Yes the relationship Lori had with the guys was steamy as hell but it was also endearing too. I actually liked Lori and the guys even if I'll be honest by saying I wasn't sure how their dynamic was doing to play out in prison. A great read though.

I’m happy Lory was able to help her sister while finding the loves of her life!! Rock, Hyde and KinKaid are out mmc and they’re sweet and protective of Lory! They each fill a void for each other that they’ve been missing and when they get all back together they’re complete!!

Loved it

Intrigued by the premise while trying to visualize how this could play out is what drew me into this book, and wow, did it ever deliver. This book was both heartbreaking and beautiful, and I devoured it. This book was so good, and I absolutely loved it and all our main characters. This is my favorite out of this series so far.

So this was a typical Stephanie Brother book: I said I liked it but I didn’t say it was good.

Lory (FMC) auctions herself off to secure money for her little sister, who is trapped in an abusive situation—her and her kids. Grady buys her for a month to service our three MMCs, who are imprisoned for crimes they didn’t commit: Colton/Kincaid, Rock, James/Hyde. Kincaid and Rock act as older brothers to Hyde, who is called as such due to his severe mental illness that can cause him to be unable to handle human contact and become violent. Lory stays and sexually services the men, healing them all through sex, but things get tricker when the nepo baby warden antagonist finds out their secret and the timeline has to be moved up. Lory leaves with her money and then men get smuggled out.

Honestly, this really can be summed up as “I said I liked it, I didn’t say it was good”.

✅ I really did like Hyde the most, especially when he started stuckling on Lory’s tit and relaxed. ABF normally has this element, but it was surprising to see non-ABF have this sort of pacificer element.

❌ All that talk of Lory being on contraception, and she still gets pregnant. Great 😒

This story wasn’t the most well-written, but Stephanie Brother books seem hardly edited with misspelled words and fluctuating pronouns that aren’t intentional. It’s erotic romance, but this one felt hollow when Lory was like this manic pixie dream girl sent to cure the men of their troubles.

Again. Good book for the specific elements I wanted. But overall, this is a book I wouldn’t really recommend unless you wanted maybe a few lines about tiddy suckling.

That is all.

When Desperation Leads To Unexpected Results

Somehow Stephanie knows just how to give us the right amount of dark, and this book is a prime example of that. When you’re talking about a woman putting herself up for auction to get money she desperately needs to save her sister from a bad situation, then you already knows it’s not gonna be all glitter & roses with a side of warm & fuzzies. Lory didn’t have much of anything, but she was willing to do whatever she need to do to help her baby sister (and her kids) who needed her help to escape a bad situation. As luck would have it (or not), Lory gets an opportunity to join an auction that’ll get her the money she needs, but first, she’ll be at someone’s beck & call for 30 days. That someone ends up being 3 prisoners who ended up having the warden feeling like he owed them a favor, and Lory ends up being that favor. A woman for all three guys for 30 days 👀🫣 She thinks she knows what to expect from guys like them, but Kinkaid, Hyde & Rock are nothing like what she expected. Then again, the guys never expected to care at all about the woman they were given to share either. Lory’s bravery, determination, and beautifully sweet heart draws them in before they even realize what’s happening. And none of them could have anticipated the heat that they generate with each other 👀🔥🥵😈 Before long Lory realizes worrying about staying safe in a prison full of men is the least of her problems, especially when she realizes her feelings are getting involved. Do the guys feel the same way? Does it even matter? These guys are in prison, so there’s no future there even if they wanna be with her…right? I love that this was a fairly quick read with a good steady pace, and believe it or not, a good balance of spice & plot. Stephanie is brilliant, and can turn any situation into a whychoose romance…I’m fully convinced of that 🙌🏻 I have loved the books in this series, and I really hope we get some more 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

I willingly did not eat or sleep from the moment I opened this book to the moment I reached the end. What a roller coaster! I was wrecked. Women play several roles in a man's life, and with 3 men with very distinct personalities and desires, Lory got to play them all.

Lory is such a loving sister to make the sacrifice that she did for her sister, niece, and nephew. I don't know anyone who would go to such an extreme. Having gone to the extreme of auctioning herself off, I was surprised at how she threw herself into her role with little hesitation.

I'm claustrophobic, so just the thought of being in a confined space with windows I cannot see out of can be triggering. But when I think of their space as an apartment of sorts, it isn't so bad.

Having Lory all in love with Kinkaid, Hyde, and Rock, and vice versa, is a foregone conclusion in Stephanie's books because she always promises HEA, but it doesn't mean we cannot enjoy the journey with her characters.

I don't have a favorite among the men because each one's personality brings a different flavor to the table. Hyde is volatile and unstable, being bipolar, but is like a child seeking love and attention. Rock is steady, dependable, and quiet, like his name. Kinkaid is the bossman and is always in charge.

Their individual situations are all sorts of messed up, but being together brings them solace. I would love to see this as a movie. Great job, Steph!

Stephanie's books are always an interesting read, and this one was just as fun as I was expecting! Lory agrees to auction her body to help raise money for her sister, but the man who buys her didn't buy her for himself.... he bought her for three inmates at the prison he oversees who did him a favour!

Rock, Hyde, and Kinkaid all are broken in different ways by the circumstances they find themselves in, and reading as they navigated healing not just themselves but each other also added another layer to the story. Lory was exactly what they needed, especially Hyde.

I will admit, however, I got a little caught up in the logistics of this. I've worked in legal for quite some time, and my mind got stuck on the "this could never happen this way," and I took myself out of the story. It was hard for me to suspend my disbelief to fully throw myself into this, but I did enjoy the heat and the drama of it all despite myself.

What can I say, I'm a sucker for a happy ending! Thank you to Stephanie for the early look!

This was a really good story that I thoroughly enjoyed, and I’m sure that those who enjoy a reverse harem story that they will love it too. Lory desperately needs money to help her sister escape from an abusive relationship and when she’s told by her friend that she can participate in an auction, and she has to spend 30 days with the person who wins her she readily agrees because it’s the only way she can help her sister. it’s a prison warden who wins her and he gives her to three harden criminals as a payment for something that they did for him. Kinkaid, Hyde and Rock are excited about having a woman to pleasure them after the many years that they’ve been incarcerated. What starts off as a transaction turns into a caring relationship between the four of them. The story is highly sexual and there’s a lot involved but feelings become involved, eventually they all have a happily ever after.

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

Wow! Just Wow! This book is a rollercoaster of emotions for me. I laughed and cried. I was so absolutely happy with the ending. There is steaming hot time, yes, but there is so much more to this Why Choose book. We meet Lory when she's trying to figure out how to help her sister who is in an abusive relationship that she needs to get away from. She comes to the conclusion that all she can do is auction herself to get the money together to help her sister and her kids leave. She is won by a warden who owes 3 convicts for a favor they did for him. While she is in the prison paying the debt, she finds healing for herself and them. Lory has the heart of an Angel. The men find their way through her beauty and heart. The character growth is amazing. I loved all of the characters so much! The storyline was so good. This is a deep story of redemption and healing. Just wonderful. I loved it 5+ stars!

Yes Stephanie!!!!!! You did the damn thing!
This book was so good!!
I’m giving this book 5 stars without receiving a free book or being paid to say so.

This book was so well written. There was so much passion and depth in it.
The men were so well written. They had layers on layers on layers. And they actually sounded like men. Which is so rare nowadays. The majority of male characters written by women currently sound like woman or how women want them to sound. I’m so grateful this wasn’t the case in this book.

They had such amazing and well thought out personalities. James made me cry. His growth and healing had me in tears. I loved how venerable he was with Lory and the breast warming or swaddling, whatever you call it. It was sweet and touching.

I loved all the guys and was rooting for all of them.

And the HEA made me so happy for them.

Just a great read and you can always tell that the auction books are Stephanie’s favorites.
They’re always her best books.

Lory

This is my first read from this author and omg I loved this book so much. This is one that you going to say just one more chapter and.you fins yourself you completely the whole book in a day.
Lory will do anything for her sister Kennedy. When Kennedy needs to escape her horrible boyfriend with her kids, Lory will do just about anything to help her sister. When her friend suggests going to the auction, Lory doesn't know what she is getting. All she knows that is has.to do whatever the buyer wants for 30 days to get the money. What Lory doesn't know the man Grady who bought her at the auction is the warden at a prison and she is not only providing her.body to one prisoner but three. Does Lory freak out and ask to leave or does she take the opportunity for all that its worth?

If I could gave this book 10 stars I would. Book contains lots of spicy scenes (MF, MMF, MMMF).

Okay, honestly? I was unsure how this was going to happen - I mean, lots of questions...
How would that even happen? And then, why? Who would agree to that?
I love when a cover has me asking all these questions... so of course, I grabbed it.

This storyline was pretty interesting. It kept the pages flipping, and it was easy to see what lead these three men to their current situation. Kinkaid, Rock, and Hyde have compelling backstories, and Lory fits into what they need. Surprisingly so.

While it's spicy and everything you expect from this author and series, the HEA and resolution to everyone's situation was exactly what I wanted for these characters.
I enjoyed 'escaping' with this one, and recommend it, and this author.

I was fortunate to receive a complimentary copy of this book (thank you) and gladly leave my review.

Lory's sister is in trouble, and needs to get herself and her kids away from her boyfriend. Lory doesn't have the money to help her so she decides to auction herself to get it. She finds herself bought by Grady, a prison warden, who owes a debt to three of his prisoners. Bringing Lory into the prison for 30 days to be with Kinkaid, Hyde, and Rock. While it was interesting to see how this relationship was going to work in a prison, the chemistry was there, but they also got to know each other to build it to more of a relationship than what was expected. This kept me reading wanting to know how this relationship was going to work once the time was up and if there would be a future for them with the guys all having various amounts of time left to in prison.

Where we’re going!
When life knocks you down time after time many people loose hope but not Lory. Working a dead end job doesn’t stop her from trying to help her baby sister who is in a horrible spot with her children. Willing to auction herself off for 30 days to provide her sister with safety is a no brainer to Lory but she’s about to learn more about herself and how unfair the world is than she EVER could have expected! Learning to adjust to isolation, insecurity and constant contact by three very large men didn’t dim her light and it forged bonds that are unbreakable. What will happen to Lory when she leaves her men? Can she, will she move on or wait for them to come for her. Unexpected twists and turns in a great story.

I was given an ARC to read and this was AMAZING! Our girl needs to help her sister out and does something dark; she puts herself up on the auction block to make money. The men she's sold to are "hardened" criminals.

My thoughts: I was trying to figure out how this book was going to play out. When I got into the book I didn't sleep. I started it at 9pm and didn't finish it until a little after 3am!! I'm still tired. But the guys seemed to be good people. Whatever reason they had to be in the prison didn't seem to be bad. The guys seemed to have their reasons, but by the end of the book they were changed. She also seemed to have changed.

Get this book. It's a great story and hot AF!!

I absolutely loved the plot and the main characters!

While there was lots of delicious steam, it was also emotional as well. We see so much growth in the men and Lory. It's also done realistically. Some wounds don't heal right away and some are still healing. What's important, is that they are.
Lory, coming into their lives was just what they needed. The love, the spice, and the bonding between them was perfect.

I feel like i need to say it again... I loved this book!
It was a pretty quick read that had me captivated from beginning to end. It was filled with all the spice i could ask for, but also gave me a fantastic story!

I’ve read quite a few Reverse Harem books. Some are really good and others not so much. I’ve read every book, published, of Stephanie Brother. I know that they will be well written with good character development. Ms Brother gives enough info about each character so that the reader can emphasize with them. Of all the RH books I’ve read, by any author, this is the first one that mostly takes place in a prison. The main characters are Lory, who needs money to help her sister, Kincaid, Hyde, and Rock. I don’t want to give too much info and spoil the story. Suffice to say if you enjoy RH books and like steamy stories that are well written you will enjoy Auctioned to the Prisoners.

The things she was willing to do for love

Any Stephanie Brothers fan will love this RH-sold book.
Set in a prison. To help her sister and her two kids escape her boyfriend.
Lory will do just about anything to get money. So when a friend suggests she could auction her auction herself for a month. That's exactly what she does.
Not expect to be given over, by the warden, himself.
Locked up hidden in an unused medical room. And given to three Huge, hot, prisoners.
This is a little different from Stephanie's usual, In my opinion, nevertheless it was really enjoyable. And you couldn't help falling for her rogues. Hot as usual. With lots of heart.

So good!! What a great story. I couldn't wait to see how Stephanie was going to tell this story. It's not every day a female gets auctioned for a 30 day live in girlfriend for 3 inmates.
I loved how quickly their relationship took off for all 4 of them. And poor James, aka Hyde, he was so messed up from his childhood treatment. Lory really knew how to help him through his "Hyde" episodes.
About halfway through the book I couldn't figure out how Stephanie was going to make it a HEA. How to get all 3 guys out of jail in a short amount of time? But, she did it! It was amazing! I was all smiles the last few chapters.

4.50 🌟 I'm glad this author is branching out from the step bro genre that gave us her name because she is really good with those different "exotic" settings for her polyam stories.
This was poignant & nuanced & not voyeuristic in a sick way including when revenge happens (no torture porn & the dark stuff is explained tactfully). You really get to care for all the characters & the shit they went through & as always the group dynamic is perfect.
A bit of suspension of disbelief is needed re prison life at times & the ending with "accidental pregnancy" + the heroine turning into a baby making machine did lose me. Not my kink, never will be.

great read

This was an interesting book, on the reverse harem concept.
It was extremely well written and pretty intense in parts.
All three convicts helped the Warden with a personal problem he had at the prison. In reward for their help, the Warden secures a woman at an auction to stay with the 3 convicts for 30 days. She attended the auction freely and understood that she would be paid for her time.
Omg, the interaction between the three inmates and Lory was unbelievably intense, emotional and erotic.
What a fascinating storyline.
This was my first time reading this Author, she is amazing at her Craft! Bravo!!

Auctioned To The Prisoners #410/26/2025

Lory is in need to make a lot of money to get her sister out of a bad relationship. A friend tells her about a auction. So lory goes and does it never thinking she would be bought by a warden of a prison. She is to spend thirty day with three prisoners as a reward for a favor they did. Lory is scared. The three guys are very scary but they really want to make this work so they are going to go slow. And works so good but they have to get her out of there before the thirty day because of a trouble causing guard. But the now all have feeling for each other. So enjoy the read and see how it works out for them !!

Loved It

I've read pretty much all of this author's books, and this is definitely one of my favorites. Once I started it, I couldn't stop. As with the blurbs of many of her books, I often scratch the show of my head and wonder how on earth the crazy plot is going to work, and like the last few, she's proven my skepticism wrong. Her books are also some of the only contemporaries I read as I Isuzu stay away from that genre. It was totally worth the sleep I lost!
I highly recommend it.

Wow, this book took me for a spin!! For Lory, nothing is more important than her little sister and she will do anything to protect her. But who knew three hardened criminals would actually save her. I loved how each man had their own unique personality and despite their desperation for a woman’s touch, there was an underlying genuine desire to not scare or hurt Lory. Stephanie is the master of making even the hardest of men fall and it’s always new, exhilarating and perfect. There is no way to not fall in love with the selfless Lory and her beautiful broken men.

Oh boy - did I completely underestimate this one. The cover had me on guard and I was getting ready for some cheesy dark romance, which this TOTALLY was not. It was actually quite wonderful.

Lory needs money. Quickly. So she gets into the oldest trade in the world and her first assignment is 30 days with 3 highly dangerous, violent prisoners, for their service to the prison warden. These 3 men have not had any women in YEARS - so they are Ol' Faithfuls, waiting to blow.

First of all - this wasn't terribly dark (as I had feared from the synopsis). Lory herself admits that these guys are better to her than some of the a-holes on the outside. They are actually really protective and nurturing - so it's no surprise that the foursome catches feelings. So it's actually a pretty emotional love story and while it's a super charged timeline (given that it's a novella) - it's endearing to see how their relationship develops. The dark part is actually just the fact that they all bring baggage & emotional trauma to the table - and it's not really dealt with - except for Hyde's psychotic breaks.

Short read, good writing, engaging plot, spice is SPICING - definitely recommend.
