Shared: One Married Couple's BDSM Journey

SHARED

Allie


It’s happened, I can’t stop thinking about that kiss. Now I have to figure out what I want to do about it. Telling Erik that another woman had slipped into my fantasies wasn’t something I expected to happen.

But here I was … fantasizing about Dahlia and what she could do to me if we had another session together at Club Noir.

Erik

When Allie told me that she had a crush on the same woman I had been thinking about, I thought my guts would spill out of my stomach. Wasn’t this every man’s fantasy? I knew I was walking on a thin rope here and things could go bad if I pushed for too much.

Allie promised me she wanted this. And I wanted it. So what was stopping us?

Untying the Knot

Erik and Allie worked hard to build a life they were proud of. It wasn’t easy, but by the time they reached their forties, they were content. Not just husband and wife, but also mother and father to three energetic boys. Unfortunately, that didn’t leave much time for each other.

This series is their journey to reinvent their intimacy by diving into the world of BDSM. Their love takes them on a year-long exploration of themselves and each other. Together, they navigate the ups and downs of self-discovery to untie the knot of suburban domesticity.

From Displayed to Shared.

This might be one of my favorite books in the Untying the Knot Series. Allie's insecurities come out to play, and Erik works through them with her. He doesn't belittle her or make her feel like her feelings aren't valid. They talk, they figure it out and then they share.

Coming to the realization that you are attracted to a woman and have never been before is a huge mind f*ck. It makes you question yourself. Why didn't you know this until now? Why her? At least that is the way it was for me until I figured it out, I just needed the right woman to help me unlock that door.

Allie and Erik have found that woman and Allie gets everything she bargained for and so much more.

Exploration and love are two of the key elements in this series and seeing a couple that has been married for so long be able to keep that love and explore is such an incredible thing.

I can't wait for August where we find out what exactly "Knotted" means.

What in the ever loving hell are you two putting into these books? 🥵

They just keep getting hotter and hotter & I can’t put them down!

I don’t know what I’ll do when this series ends :(

Or…

maybe it should just keep going. Forever.

Think about all of the spicy things they could do! Endless opportunities…just sayin’. 🤣🙏🙏🙏

I have been looking at this series for a while, not sure if it would be for me. I LOVE this book! Once I sat down to read it I didn’t put it down until the end, craving more. Fortunately, there are more…because although I was perfectly fine reading this book as a stand alone. This was the first book I’ve read in the series and I will be getting the set and starting from book one.

Shared, wow what can I say. Very casual and real but hot! I felt like it could be me or someone I know talking about it or experiencing it. Then it gets STEAMY. Just enough buildup to increase the climax. This is a perfect book for anyone curious, interested, or invested in this type of experience. Because, it normalizes experimenting between consenting adults. It is also sexy enough if you just want to read something spicy. Must read! Start with book one..or don’t 🤷‍♀️ you can pick only books you’re interested in this series or read through the whole journey. 🤤

Everyone a new book in this series is released, I devour it in one sitting and think "this is my favorite one". Then another is released and I'm corrected. Shared is no exception. I love the realistic aspect of this series, the spice, the communication and the new adventures. Highly recommend this whole series!

This is book 7 in the Untying the Knot series. Erik and Allie are in their forties and have 3 boys. They have, throughout the series, been on a quest to add adventure to their sex life. In Shared, they discuss a mutual attraction to their friend, Dahlia. This incredibly racy series continues to be thrilling and steamy. It is also realistic and shows a caring relationship with excellent communication. It addresses things that may trigger some, so check those warnings. Thanks for another good book in the series.

Details make the difference

Allie’s last trip to Club Noir opened the door to desires she didn’t know she had. Now she wants more…and so does Erik.

The aspect of this series that I continue to adore is its realism. Real conversations, real struggles with real emotions; no carefree diving into the deep end of sensual exploration. You feel the tension, uncertainty, and elation as this long-married couple open the door to new experiences.

Loved the overlay of a bookstore chess game with a very sensitive discussion of desires. When Allie did things like set her cup down on a coaster, I appreciated Quinn’s attention to the little things.

When the time comes that Allie and Erik together share a bed with Dahlia, it is smoking hot! You can feel it as any tension or uncertainty melts away to pure excitement. I can’t wait to see what awaits Allie and Erik with Dahlia and Ron next.

This is one book series that I can count on each month for some seriously spicy reading enjoyment. If I have any complaint it’s only that I wish the months were shorter and the stories longer.

This is another fab and steamy addition to the series. I really love the open communication between Allie and Eric. As they move forward with their explorations, they continue to grow closer and appreciate each other more. In this installment, they discuss their mutual attraction to their friend, Dahlia... Woo whee! So hot! Each new adventure brings more heat than the last but it also continues to hit as realistic, which is a tricky feat, IMO. Well done!

OMG - I love this series - and the places the author can take us! I love the realness of the kids, and their interrupt at the most inconvenient times! The "new" couple grew on me - wasn't sure I liked them at first - but I sure do know! I love all of the exploration Allie and Erik are doing and most important they are talking about everything! Just LOVE it!

Shared is book 7 in the Untying The Knot series. These entertaining novellas should absolutely be read in order. These are like spicy little soap opera episodes that lead from one BDSM adventure to the next for a long married couple who are exploring their relationship. I am hooked and moving immediately into the next book in the series, Knotted!

The couple talk and admit they are both attracted to Dahlia, perhaps too much so. They visit them at their home and there is a threesome between them while Ron watches.
