Grace Under Fire

Rate this book
London, 1795. While most of Society views Lady Grace Hannington as a clumsy laughingstock, Atticus Stilwell and Viscount Colin Fitzgerald see their perfect partner – a woman who is more than enough for not just one man, but two. She is well–bred enough to be the wife Colin needs, with a blossoming sensuality both men cannot wait to taste. But Grace will also need strength to withstand the ton's scrutiny if she agrees to their scandalous arrangement. Can Atticus and Colin show her enough wicked pleasure to convince her to become theirs forever?

I hate people that use this phrase: "IT IS WHAT IT IS"! But, guess what?! I'm a-gonna use it in describing this short novella! This was a fun, entertaining and very HOT, XX rated read. No depth to it, nothing to write home about. It was just what it is. A threesome romp. Period. If you need to read a hot and heavy threesome story, I say go for it, but if you want a meaningful love story, you'll be disappointed.

I enjoy menage stories but those in which the two men have to share a woman for some mystic-ass reason always bring on an "oh please" reaction. This is a historical, so the author tried to find a psychological reason rather than a science fictiony one, but it still reads like woo-woo. The historical parts of the story are none too original -- very clumsy, red-headed, extremely innocent heroine. Nonetheless, it was a pretty entertaining short read.

Lord Colin Fitzgerald and his best friend, Atticus Stilwell, share everything including women. They both set there eyes on Grace. She a virgin who is clumsy, and also ended up messing something up. Until she was offer a marriage proposal by Colin if she agree to have Atticus as well.

I like the plot of the story though I felt there could have been more details.It's a great book if you want a quickie or late night read.

Lady Grace is chosen by best friends Lord Colin Fitzgerald and Atticus Stillwell to be their woman - she will marry Colin and bear his heirs (regardless of the actual father) but the two men will share her affections. Improbable and not very romantic story - it was more erotica than romance IMO, even though there was a HEA. The beginning was very much like a transaction rather than a romance - I don't know why they chose Grace and I didn't believe it was more than lust (combined with the need for Colin to produce an heir) actually. It lacked any real character development even if it was only 53 pages. There was no relationshp between Grace and the two men shown to me and I didn't think it was remotely realistic. Their amorous activities were very adventurous for innocent virgin Grace but she seemed to take it in stride - somewhat remarkable given the level of, er, penetration and the lack of preparation. It made me a bit uncomfortable actually (and not just physically!).

Whew! I need a hand-fan while I read this one. For such a brief story, the author gave a nice glimpse of three personalities, and a long, full look at some sexy times. It’s completely enjoyable as it is, a bare-bones story that fulfills the subtitle “spice brief” perfectly, but I would have read a novella length version of this quite happily. I will definitely be checking out more of the author’s work.

Too short to be anything more than a prelude to a threesome. A least another chapter would have been appreciated to round out the story

WICKED OR NOT

Grace is the opposite of her name, until two gentlemen give her the confidence and love she's been missing. Very steamy with explicit sex! MFM
