For Addison Beltrand, PR rep for Bold International, Inc. climbing the corporate ladder is all that matters in life. Her hard work is finally rewarded with the promotion she’s worked her ass off to earn—but the gig comes at a price. She leaves in two days for a twelve-week tour with America’s hottest alternative rock band, 69 Bottles.

Talon Carver, lead singer of 69 Bottles, has no problem with women--as long as they’re gone by morning. When Addison shakes up his world, it’s a huge problem—compounded by the fact that Addison’s not the only one he wants.

Kyle Black, manager of 69 Bottles, has a secret. He and Addison are closer than she thinks, but telling her could keep her away. When Talon sets his sights on Addison, Kyle uses his secret to push her into Talon’s arms, only to discover she isn’t the only one he needs.

Two men. One dilemma.

Talon is wild, reckless and loves control.

Kyle is calm, collected and loves passion.

The perfect balance…or Addison’s ultimate undoing?

Talon and Kyle push their boundaries and Addison’s, but can they throw their reservations to the wind and claim her together?

Two men. One woman. A rock band. A tour bus. One Wild Ride…

Attention: I fucking LOVED this book!
One of them wouldn't be enough for me, but the two of them just might be too much to handle.
Rock Stars,
MMF Romance,
Heat,
Humor,
& an awesome Female MC...




I think this book was written just for me... My adoration of MMF Romances is well documented, but there was so much more that this book had to offer! Everything flowed easily, from the dialogue to the character development. There was plenty of rock-star related tomfoolery and humor which consistently kept a smile on my face.

I suppose it goes without saying that a rocker MMF sexual situation means the heat factor in this book is almost fatal.

Do. Not. Attempt. To. Read. This. In. Public.
You've officially been warned ;)

In addition to the sexy-times (which get an A++ in my book) the characters themselves made this a Five-Star read for me. Addison was especially delightful and the book is dominated by her POV. Even though Kyle and Talon each have several sections to tell their point of view, Addison was the star.

I fell in love with her character instantly. The way she narrates with humor and quirkiness had me grinning from ear-to-ear. She tells her story in a way that is almost conspiratorial... Like she's your girlfriend spilling this naughty story over cocktails at your local hangout.

Addison Beltrand
"...I'm here. I'm yours and nothing can take that away from me. I need you more than I need oxygen in my lungs or blood in my veins. Take me [...] mark me. Make me yours."
Addison works her ass off for Bold - a firm which handles public relations for the upper echelon of celebrities. She is on-call 24/7 to put out fires and assist her clients when the spotlight gets them in trouble.

It wasn't much of a surprise when her boss Cami (Finding Love's Wings) pulls her into her office and tells her that she has to cancel her vacation and hop on a 12-week nation-wide tour with a rock band. What does surprise Addison is learning that the band she'll be touring with is 69 Bottles - she actually had tickets to see the tour's kickoff in LA while on vacation...

Talon Carver
"...Let us take care of you," Talon whispers in my ear and my head falls back to his shoulder as the pleasure rocks through me. "This is not about us. This is about us taking care of our girl."
Talon is the front-man and lead singer for 69 Bottles. He's living the dream - his band is growing in popularity, and he's about to go on the biggest tour of his life. Women throw themselves at him constantly - the only challenge is getting them out of his bed the next morning.

As soon as he hops on the tour bus, Talon is drawn to this professional ball-busting new PR Agent (as is the rest of the band) but when she sheds the business suit and reveals the tattooed rocker chick underneath, he's rendered speechless... And helplessly horny...

Kyle Black
...there's a look in his eyes; a look that says that there is nothing he won't do to have me. It takes everything I have not to grab him and drag him back to the bus. Just get it out of our system so we can work on this tour, but I have a feeling that won't be enough, for me, for Kyle, and it just might make Talon jealous.
Kyle is the band's manager and is more than pleased to be working with a competent PR Agent. He quickly realizes that he and Addison share a link from the past, but he's in no hurry to divulge that bit of information to her.

Kyle is not immune to Addison's charms, and he sees the way she and Talon look at each other. Thing is, that look doesn't make him jealous... The idea of Talon and Addison together hits all his buttons.

Addison doesn't date clients. Or, um, anyone for that matter. She's been celibate for years, throwing herself into her work in the wake of a personal tragedy. These two men, however, stir her more than anyone she's ever met.

Addison can't possibly choose between the Kyle and Talon.
Lucky for her, they aren't asking her to.

I could go on and on about this book, but I'll leave you here... and the fact that buying a copy of this book should come with a complimentary change of panties...

This is the first book in a three part series and I'm counting the days until Craving Talon releases in February! Rest assured, Claiming Addison doesn't leave off on a cliffhanger or anything like that... But I promise, as soon as you meet these characters, you'll be begging for more!

I admit it m/m/f is my kryptonite. I'm usually disappointed by them and their insistence upon making the girl a crazy train coupled with an annoying lack of mansex, but I keep trying. Word to the wise. This is more m/f/m than m/m/f. Kyle and Talon do stuff but Addison is the focus. More sadz.



I know. I know. *hangs head* They're all formulaic. They all have a female protag who's either a virgin or virginal, who's "no-nonsense" and "independent", then gets addicted to the D and turns into a delicate flower with a river of tears at any perceived slight. The writing's usually beyond bad. I know there's going to be some overblown "conflict" that basically means the dudes have to grovel to "win her back" which inevitably involves her being fucked stupid into forgiveness and a riding off into the HEA sunset.

I know! But...



Addison didn't take long to hop on the whattheactualfuck train. I'm so glad I wasn't in the midst of drinking a soda when she went balls to the wall with her Betty Badass introduction to 69 Bottles, because painful. Seriously, what PR rep starts by telling her employers that if they fuck up she'll "have their balls with a side of bacon in the morning"?



IF Addison had backed that up and been tough as nails I prolly would've liked her more, but the more I got into this the more she showed her ass. Of course she's beautiful and hot and everybody wants her. Of course she's perfect and insightful and caring and so magnanimous. Hard to believe all that perfection has been waiting virginally for the past 8 years satisfying herself. Even harder to believe that all her fabulousness has been simmering underneath her pencil skirt suit set just waiting for a couple of rock gods to set her free and by free I mean allow her tattoos to be displayed. Evidently, that's all it takes to discover yourself. Write that down, kids.



Addison could quite possibly be the biggest misogynist I've ever run across. She's caddy and bitchy to every female she meets even her "friends". Every single female the band comes in contact with is a slut, a bimbo, an animal or a skank.

EVERY ONE!

They couldn't just like alt-rock music and this particular band? They couldn't just be fans? The guys are just fans but the girls all have some sort of ulterior skanky motive.



What makes her judgments so laughable is the irony. She makes these assumptions about these women based (presumably) upon how they dress and the fact that they're fans of 69 Bottles.

BOTH OF WHICH SHE HAS ZERO ROOM TO JUDGE!

She's a fan and she dresses like a cross between Kesha and Avril Lavigne and, yes, she does detail every outfit. Naturally, all these outfits drive the band wild because



She's all hair flip, giggle, squeal, eye roll, possibly sticks her tongue out. She rolls her eyes so much I think it must've become like an airborne illness. Next thing I knew both her dudes were doing it!

I was starting to run out of fucks to give what with all the bad writez, eye rolling, yelling and whatnot, but then some post-migraine, threesome, impromptu, morning sex happened and... what can I say?

 photo 635709550212758346-1331674159_sorry_zpsvjlgan93.jpg

No self-respecting perv bails when faced with the prospect of oodles of sex. I soldiered on. I took one for the team. Or something.

Addison in her infinite professionalism bangs both the band manager, Kyle, and the lead singer, Talon. Like on the 3rd day of the tour. I'm not gonna lie I kinda wanted to high five her. And, DA-YUM, she is hornier than a wildcat and surprisingly adventurous. Then again she does have that whole 8 year thing so... I ain't mad at some of her antics and she does dig the dudes groping one another. I know because she tells us ALL THE TIME. <----take note of that 'T' word there. It's a good thing Addie's ready to roll at a moment's notice.



"Baby girl, until you, I was a one and done kind of guy. But being around you, looking at you, constantly hard is my new middle name."

"...But when you walk out of the room, it's like he knows his favorite place to be is gone and he goes limp."




The words used to describe the sex are...



There are explosions and fire and boiling. It was better than a natural disaster flick.

And lightening fast!

Faster than a speeding bullet!


It's like they could just look at her clit real hard and she'd have yet another earth shattering orgasm. Granted, it has been 8 years so... *squints* maybe???? The dudes are no better, though, and they're in a rock band! Which automatically means they were swimming in pussy pre-Addie and her Doc Martens stomping in 3 whole days ago. Still...



I'm sure they had LOADS of stamina pre-Addie, but SHE'S SO HOT!!!!!

And they're in instalove and E'RYTING!

You know what? Stamina Schmamina because PERMABONER!



That's about how fast the orgasms occurred. If only there had been rainbows. *sigh*

What little respect I had for Addie flew south for the winter when she decided despite "knowing" both her dudes were banging ALL THE SKANKS like 2 days ago she still wanted them to forego the condoms and "mark her".



That lovely bit of sound decision making coupled with her propensity to party harder than the actual rock stars and sleep til mid-afternoon... shit, I need this job. Where can I get this job? If this whackadoodle can do it I know I can.

As luck would have it there's about to be a vacancy since ole Addie seems to have locked up a rock star career for herself by singing a duet with Talon. ONCE. And of course it went viral on YouTube and she got offered a recording contract because that happens.



Though I'll have to wait for the sequel to find out how that goes. I'm certain more conflict and jealousy will be involved.

I can't in all honesty say I hated this book because it entertained the fuck out of me. I laughed. I clapped. I was thisclose to snorting a beverage out of my nose. The writing is soooooooooo baaaaaaaaddddd it just became a joke that I couldn't get enough of and I even toyed with giving this 3 stars just for the giggles, but the writez are truly awful so... I just can't.

However if you want some hilarious brain candy...

★✩★✩★ 5+ Hott. As. Hell!! Stars
~this review may contain minor spoilers~

“So, you're a fan?”
“Huge.”
“You want an autograph?”
“Oh my god.” I bust out laughing. “Is that how you pick up the chicks?”
“Hey it works, Red, trust me.”
“I don't doubt it. But no, I don't want an autograph. I'm sure by the time this tour's over I will run away screaming.”
“God, I hope not.”

Addison Beltrand
has spent the last seven years of her life locked in her own career driven bubble. No relationships to speak of and hardly any friends, but it has just resulted in the promotion of a lifetime. As the new PR rep of 69 Bottles, she is about to embark on on a twelve week cross country tour with the band and has no idea exactly how much her life is about to change. And she thought being stuck on a tour bus with five guys was gonna be the height of her problems...

There is something about watching the two of them together. I find myself drawn to the both of them for some unknown reason, and again, my cock is throbbing thinking about it. I don't know whether I should be running to it, or away from it.

Talon Carver
has never had any trouble getting women into bed. As lead singer of 69 Bottles he has his pic of the groupies every night and as long as they're gone by morning, he's happy. He has never done the relationship thing, has no interest in it, get in – get off – get out is the way he lives his life. Until he meets Addison. He knows he can't one-night her and strangely enough he finds himself actually considering going after her anyway-for more than one night. There is just one problem. His best friend has also set his sights on her and rather then feeling competitive about it, he has the oddest desire to have them both. And it scares the shit out of him.

Talon and Kyle are like polar opposites. Kyle is soft and sensual, a teddy bear. While Talon is rough and a little crass with his words and his actions. Both, while great separate are beyond comprehension together.

Kyle Black
is the Manager of 69 Bottles and has been best friends with Talon since college. After meeting their new PR rep for the first time, two thing become clear to him: 1) he and Addison are far closer than she could have ever dreamed, and she doesn't seem to know it. 2) he wants her. Without question. But so does Talon. When he attempts to push her into Talon's arms he has another startling realization-Talon doesn't just want Addison, he wants Kyle TOO and Kyle has no idea what to do about it. Sure he's no stranger to admiring another man, he's just never acted on it before.
As these three venture into unknown territory- boundaries will be crossed, passion will ignite, sexual cravings will be discovered and nothing will ever be the same.

♥ Two Men ~ One Woman ~ Unlimited Possibilities ♥

I will never be able to fully explain just how much I loved this friggin book. Where to start?!
As this is a menage book, let me start with the obvious-THE SEX.
There was plenty of it and it was hott-as-hell. I read a lot of smut, and frankly, the dirtier the better. Well let me tell you, this book had some of the steamiest scenes I have EVER read. No two were the same and Zoey had no limits-anything was fair game. I suggest having either your man, woman, or favorite battery operated toy nearby or suffer a cold shower cause damn... seriously smokin'. Hottness aside, what I really loved was how they all were experiencing all this for the first time together. It brought a sort of innocence into the filth and that was pretty damn sweet. Talon and Kyle have never been in this type of situation before and it shows. They desire each other but are nervous about it, they want each other but don't want to push too far. The result was Addison, being the least sexually experienced of the three, acting as a sort of comfort zone. They both wanted her desperately but that kind of desire they had experience with, so she just sort of helped them get comfortable in their new desires. That was a wicked twist I wasn't expecting but loved and it actually cranked up the hottness.
I can feel myself getting worked up all over again just talking about it sooo....moving on.
Besides all the crazy-hottness that was this book, there was actually a damn good story behind it-believe it or not, it wasn't ALL about the sex. And the characters themselves were amazing. Talon and Kyle were polar opposites-one demanding and controlling, one passionate and calming. They balanced each other out perfectly and as the story progressed we peeled away more layers to the men underneath, the men they kept hidden from the outside world. Addison was a wonderful mix of strong and independent, yet vulnerable and insecure. She just did a damn good job at hiding her insecurities, except where her men were concerned-she couldn't hide anything from them. And with the exception of one situation involving a shopping spree, where I kinda felt she seriously overreacted, I had no complaints about any of them. Granted, it took some time in the beginning for the men to get their heads outta their asses (mainly Talon), but dudes a rock star so that was to be expected. As it was, everything progressed at a fantastic pace. Every single page held my attention and added to the overall story, all of the secondary characters were amazing and unique-each and every band member had qualities that had me loving them in their own special ways. The banter between Addison and ALL the guys was freakin hilarious. Honestly, there wasn't a single part of the book where I wanted to put it down long enough to even sleep. I could read this over and over and over....
but then I got to the end. I admit- I screamed, I cussed, I wanted to throw my kindle and I kept hitting the next page button hoping that the page counter was wrong and there was more. There wasn't. It wasn't even that big of a cliffhanger, it was just that last sentence.....
and I will leave you hanging right there, just like I am so I am not suffering alone. Zoey Derrick most definitely cemented her spot on my One-Click-Addiction List one blush and gasp at a time with this one. I STILL can't get this book or these characters outta my head and I am itching to get my dirty little hands on the next one. I am officially a ♥ 69 Bottles Groupie ♥

“Fuck,” Kyle growls next to me.
“You took the words right out of my mouth.”
“Dude, she's fucking ours. You know that?”
Kyle's words hit me like a fucking freight train. She's ours. She's mine, she's his. There is no jealousy, no envy, simply contentment and desire as she walks in perfectly measured strides towards us.

DNF!
I don't care how hot the sex is!! If I have to be inside Addison's head any longer I'm going to scream!
Her big fake D's that she doesn't wear a bra with because she passed the pencil test.
Every guy in the band having heart attacks when she walks out dressed for a show.
Her needing a bodyguard because of the way she's dressed.
Her clit hard and her pussy weeping, oozing wtf ever she said every time she's around Talon and Kyle.
But she hasn't had sex in like 7 yrs because of her dead husband.
This is day one! The first show! She's already pouting that Kyle and Talon have girls on them.
Ugh! Stop! Stop! Stop!
Moving on! Damn! I sure know how to pick them lately:((

it's between 3 and 3,5 position 69 is not enough stars

this is actually a very good ranking considering...

I was thinking of taking my time to write this but fuck it, I 'll say it straight - it actually surprised me the way my mind accepted this sexual revolution and exibition cause that was the only thing I actually liked.

The story started as it usually does - girl meets a guy (sorry guys) they are placed together in a closed space and the attraction is palpable - so what's gonna happen?! omg!
yeah, you get where I'm going with this - the plot is nothing new, the characters, well I am not in the clear about them, I certainly love Kyle (the manager) and Talon (the lead singer of the 69 bottles band) what I don't get is her - Addison

and that's where the story should pick up the pace and build the tension on other parts (maybe a little more brain) rather than only on the sexual ones...and there are attempts to do so but it didn't reach my brain!

I had the feeling they were acting like teens and not grown up people aware of the things they were doing,(apart when they were havin sex), yeah they discussed it¨, recognized it and acknowledge it and all but that part did nothing for me...

I'll be totally honest here - when the sex in the book "blinds" me in a way i don't see, hear or feel anything else presented in the book, I don't think that was the general idea to start with...

and the ending? what is that? it's not an ending, it's not a cliffy, it is just meeeh...

yeah, sure...I'll read the book 2, probably even the book 3 for educational purposes only, I don't really give a shit where they are going...

Global Warming has come to the fiction world in all of its blazing hot glory as Zoey Derrick kicks off her series, 69 Bottles with Claiming Addison as she gives new meaning to, “When the bus is a rocking, don’t come a knocking!” Holy flaming arrows, cupid, cover your eyes, love, lust and passion has never burned so hot.

Addison is a woman on the move, climbing up the corporate ladder, one job at a time. Her assignment, as the PR rep for the rock band 69 Bottles is to travel with the band on their tour bus for two weeks. A woman in control, with a wild child just waiting to be unleashed may have met her match, but will it take two men, each craving her to find true release and passion?

The ultimate lust triangle, she wants him he wants her, she also wants him and he also wants her and then, just when you are ready for a good, long nap, he also want him who wants him back!

Told from the viewpoint of Addison, Talon and Kyle, there is no doubt that we are getting the big picture here, as Zoey Derrick scorches the pages with great dialogue, tidbits of humor and passion ignited. Great characters that blend together perfectly, there is tension, a little more tension and then just a tad more after that in this spicy tale of letting go of boundaries and reaching for the stars. I will say, if you are easily embarrassed, uncomfortable with in your face intimacy or have any health conditions exacerbated by rapid breathing, elevated blood pressure or getting caught with smoking pages in your hands, this may not be for you. If you recovery quickly from scorched eyeballs, read on!

This was a really good book I have found me a new hot rocker series. Addison Beltrand is a PR rep. for Bold International, Inc. when her Boss Trinity calls her into her office and tells her that she is needed to go on tour with America’s hottest alternative rock band, 69 Bottles she agrees. Talon Carver, lead singer of 69 Bottles, has no problem getting women and after one look he wants Addie, but he has a problem he also wants his friend and manger Kyle Black. Addie thinks she knows Kyle but can't remember where from and she is shocked when she figures it out. Turns out Kyle is the brother of her former fiancé Dan who died in a car accident almost eight years ago, which also happens to have been the last person she had sex with. This was a very good book I instantly liked all of the character's in this book and the band members. Kyle, Talon and Addie are all confused about what is going on between them Talon and Kyle have never been with another man and they are learning to take things slow and Addie realizes this and wonders if she is pushing them. Things start off good at the beginning of the tour until the drummer Dex the manwhore that he is set is caught having sex and doing drugs and this is where Addie comes in. This book was well written with no errors in spelling or grammar the sex scenes in this book was hot as hell and although the men didn't have intercourse it was still hot. This was also my first time reading this author and I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

Sexiest bus tour ever!

Addison is going on tour with a band, luckily its a band she really likes, she's there to keep them in PR order.

She starts off well telling them what she expects them to do and not do. The band is made up with a right bunch of characthers, and they all cant help notice how gorgeous Addison is and she has to share a bus with them for six weeks. When she's introduced to Talon the band lead singer, her panties basically melt, it not much better when she meets the bands manager Kyle.... shoot what will she do!

It soon becomes apparent that both men want Addison, but theyre quite interested in each other too!

What can you expect from this book, first off lots and lots of seriously hot threesome sex, interesting characthers and a good story to go with the sexy bits.

If I had to pick between Kyle and Talon who are both very sexy I'd say I favour Talon. If you like your books sexy pick it up and see who you favour.

four seriously sexy stars.

Let me say it's not often that I find myself squirming in my seat for relief from a read. I read quite a bit (a lot) of erotica and while I can get hot and bothered I'm not jonesing for relief.
Zoey wrote a hot and enthralling read with Claiming Addison. She turned an unconventional relationship to something that just felt extremely normal.
1 girl 2 smoking guys on a tour bus for weeks. Just imagine all the steamy scenes and slight drama that can ensue.
One-click this now!

I love this authors books. She's got a great way with words that captures your attention from start to finish. As much as I loved her other books this book is now my favourite of hers.

Addison is a PR for the band 69 bottles. This could be the start of a great career for her. Kyle is the band manager and then we have the lead singer Talon. One fantastic female character and two male hotties had me glued to this story. Although there are some really great hot sexy MMF scenes we also get a fantastic storyline.

This is book one of a three part series in the 69 Bottles Series. I'm so looking forward to reading the other books in the series.

I'm at a loss here, guys. I'm still trying to figure out what exactly I just read, because it had no ending. Not a cliffhanger, no happy for now or happily ever after. To my utter shock, it just stopped...

In my honest opinion, that is poor writing technique and something I hope the author will reconsider doing in the future. This is isn't a series, but a serial novel, and generally I avoid serials for this reason. And to make matters worse, the over all feel of the writing was regrettably juvenile. Honestly, that's the first thing I thought of reading the first page. I'm not trying to be mean here, but that's just how I felt. I will say one really good thing about the story, however, was the dynamics between the three characters. I'm a sucker for stories that have everyone falling in love with one another and no clear lines drawn in the sand where the guys can't cross. These three have an amazing amount of chemistry, and I loved how they communicated with one another. Communication is a rarity in fiction, and I do applaud the author for having her characters actually communicate. I did find it rather far fetched that Addison goes from mourning the loss of her fiance for the last 8 years, in which she is completely abstinent, to a raging nympho with her fiance's brother and his best friend none the less. I saw that as providing some conflict to the story, but it was sort of just a tiny bump along the way. But this is fiction after all, so I get it.

Overall, I wasn't all that impressed but I'm invested enough that I want to finish out the story. Make no mistake, I am irritated that it just stopped suddenly, but thankfully upon a friend's suggestion I had already bought the rest of the books. My word of caution to you guys is to do the same unless you want to get so frustrated you try to throw your eReader across the room.

Hot rock stars and MMF ménage? Sign me up. I had high hopes for this one, but I did not love it as much as I wanted to.

Addison is a PR rep that goes on tour with the band 69 Bottles. Talon, the lead singer, and Kyle, the band’s manager, are instantly attracted to Addison. As it turns out, they are also attracted to each other. As you can imagine, things get pretty intense between the three of them. I love a good bisexual ménage story.

The sex was pretty hot. I liked the banter between Addison and the band. She could be pretty witty at times. The concept of the story was good. However, I wanted to love it much more than I actually did.

I was not crazy about this author’s writing style. There were several repetitions and clichés. Tenses flip flopped in several places. The characters were not consistent.

Addison’s a whole bundle of contradictions – serious and mournful one minute then playful and horny the next. This girl hasn’t gotten laid in over seven years, yet she was covered in tats, had fake size D boobs, dressed like a skank, had an amazing voice, wanted by every guy who laid eyes on her, and worked with rock stars. I’m all for the badass and tatted rocker chick, but she could not decide if she was the shy abandoned fiancé or the slutty rock chick. Addison’s narration drove me a little crazy.

I was glad I received this for free by the publisher. It wasn’t terrible, but I would have been upset if I had paid for this. I highly doubt I will continue with the series.

4.5 Red Angel Stars

I've been told about this series by several different people and for some reason, just never got around to reading it. I really enjoyed Addison, Talon and Kyle getting to know each other. I've also enjoyed Talon and Kyle's relationship evolving from their deep friendship due to Addison's arrival into their lives.

I love how Addison describes Talon and Kyle:

Talon and Kyle are like polar opposites. Kyle is soft and sensual , a teddy bear. While Talon is rough and a little crass with his words and his actions. Both, while great separate; are beyond comprehension together.

The only thing that threw me a little and the only reason why it's not a full 5 stars is the fact that the author seems to change from first person to, I guess it's, third person. One moment the characters are speaking in the moment and as things are happening. Then, all of a sudden, they seem to speak directly to the reader.

Nothing wrong with it, it just threw me a couple of times. But I will continue reading about Addison, Talon, and Kyle. They are SMOKIN' H.O.T.!!!

**I received an arc in exchange for an honest review**


I only have 1 question...Can I join 69 Bottles on their tour????

What I was expecting was a book filled with steamy rock star sex....what I got was a book filled with steamy rock star sex with one hell of a story to go along with it.

You know how in books where there are 2 men you are either Team Guy 1 or Team Guy 2? Well, this time, I'm Team Both Guys. This is my first foray in to this genre and what an introduction! Each guy brings something to the story that completes it. You just can't pick sides. And Addison, I adore her. We all need to be a bit more like her. The rest of the characters even play their part. I secretly hope Dex gets his own book. I bet he has quite the story to tell.

This book will have you hooked right from the start and takes you on a hell of a ride. A rocker romance that should be at the top of everyone's TBR and a 5 star read beyond a doubt. Can't wait to catch up with the band in the next book!

This book was given to me for my honest review

Neapolitan ice-cream has uniqueness about it. Three flavors with their own originality that when come together makes a scrumptious cold treat. The vanilla is plain yet simple, the strawberry flavor with the sweetness about it and bits of strawberry makes it unique in itself, the chocolate flavor has just enough tantalizing flavor of cocoa that when all three flavors hit our palette it becomes addictive.

This is the first book in 69 Bottles

Addison-pretty, smart and sassy

Talon-singer, hunky

Kyle-manager of 69 Bottles and way hunky

Addison is a very pretty woman. She is sassy at times and knows what she wants out of her life. She is driven by the excitement of her job. She has close friends but keeps them at a bay for reasons that she only knows. She knows what loss of the heart is all about and never intends to let any guy close to her heart again. Her work is her heart or is it? What happens when not one but two men look at her and she shivers what will her heart do now?

Talon is the singer of the band. He can have any woman that he wants on any night he wants. A revolving woman every night has been what this man has been about. He lives by his code knowing that if the same woman was to be in his bed for more than one night he would tire of her and leave her in the proverbial wind this has always been his way. What happens when a sassy PR woman bounces into his bus and turns his head around will he think twice about his rule?

Kyle is a hunky manager that has a secret that only Addison knows. He can have any pick of woman he such desires but in the back of his head after seeing Addison after all the years gone by will the secret be revealed along with another desire he possess?

Addison, Talon and Kyle’s journey is not a normal one by far. Though secret desires come out with the hottest sex they possess can all three of them make the commitment to each other to keep it all together or will Kyle and Talon posses Addison separately as well as together? Kyle has a secret that has come a light but will he act upon it? Will Addison be able to continue on this path as another one comes into play? Will these three be able to find happiness as one or will they take separate paths?

To the author: You have had me floored in this read. You have had me flabbergasted at times and wanting to scream at Talon and Kyle to just do what comes natural for the both of them. But as in life we see that with three hearts one may or may not get hurt we can only hope for the best outcome. With this being the first book I can’t wait to see what you have in store with the next read. You have me on edge as will your readers be as well. Kudos

To the Readers: Sit back and enjoy

Happy Reading

Claiming Addison (69 Bottles #1) by Zoey Derrick is an exciting, sexually charged novel with powerful emotional undertones. This is not just a sex on every other page book. There is a story here and Zoey Derrick tells it very well, with well rounded characters and moments of emotional tenderness that is rarely found in today's erotica.

Addison Beltrand has not had a relationship in seven years. Hell she hasn't even had a one night stand in seven years. If she is honest with herself, she hasn't even allowed her friends to get close to her. Not since she buried her fiance after a tragic accident. Instead she dedicates herself to her work as a PR rep for Bold International, Inc. Now she has been assigned a new client. Her favorite band, 69 Bottles and she is scheduled to go on a twelve week tour with them. The lone woman on a bus full of beautiful and dangerous rock stars, she has to show she can be strong. But inside she finds herself weakening. The lead singer, Talon, is bringing out emotions and desires in Addison she hasn't felt in years. And he is not the only one. The band's manager, Kyle, is also making Addison rethink her solitude. Twelve weeks, stuck on a tour bus with both of them is a long time. Talon likes his women to be gone by morning, but with Addison, he finds his desires far beyond the physical level. Addison has not intention of being a notch on any man's bedpost, not even someone as sexy as Talon. Kyle is familiar and Addison cannot quite place him, but she knows she has met him before. Can she allow herself to feel again, and which one will it be. Who will she chose? Or does she have to? Twelve weeks.

I find erotica, and you can call it women's fiction or romance, when it delivers on an emotional level to be as close to poetry as writing can get. It has its own cadence, its own rhythm. A beat, that as a reader, you cannot help but dance to. Claiming Addison absolutely does this and does it well. The character development, and the growth each character achieves from each of their traumatic pasts to the point where they can again be in a relationship; is detailed and delivered with as much potency as any of the sex scenes. But don't get me wrong, this is not an episode of Dr. Phil. No. This is erotica. This is heat. This is a journey of discovery and pleasure and need. It is desperate. A wanton desire written on every page that warms to the touch. Not only for Addison, but for Talon and Kyle as well.

It is just a damn good read. Zoey Derrick has started her new series off with a bang! Pun intended!

MY REVIEW
There isnt a single thing about this book that i didnt love.
This book took all the best parts of a reading experience and rolled them all into one fantastic story.
Everything from dialogue to the character development, humor, hot rock star, a genuine nice guy and a female lead that knocks spots off any lead i have read in a long time, throw in the fact that its a m/m/f story just made this book awesome!

Addison is the best parts of all book heroin's rolled into one character, she has balls of steel, awesome take no shit attitude, feisty as all get out but she has this crazy quirkiness that had me smiling for most of this book.
The two male leads compliment each other, Talon is this hard rocker with a beautiful body and heart to match, he isnt without his troubles but he is a good guy.
Kyle is the bands manager he is sweet and caring, he is the softer guy in the relationship triangle. I really liked the little twist the author threw in there about Kyle and Addison and there shared combined past.
The way the author starts this book is so unique, i have never read a book like this, its almost like its being told by one of your best girlpals and she is sharing this dirty naughty story and your sat there completely enraptured unable to move in case you miss any of it! bloody brilliant.

Most of this story is told in Addison's POV but there are a few parts where Talon and Kyle get a say.
The chemistry that pours off the pages between the three main characters is combustible, you may need to change your panties!. Addison can't possibly choose between the Kyle and Talon, and really who could, lucky for her no one is asking her to.
This is one of those books i could just go on and on about i loved it so much and really didnt want it to come to an end.

This is the first book in a three part series and I'm counting the days until Craving Talon: 69 Bottles #2 comes available in February i want so much more from this set of characters and im thirsty for more of there story.

This author rocks she totally stole my life with this book i got sucked into the 69 bottles world and i didnt want to leave.

Oh dear lord, what was this??

I don't even know where to begin. I've read bad books, and then there's this.

First off, I have no objection to M/M/F stories - I like them. But this? This was... if someone had never read this kind of book and started off with CLAIMING ADDISON, they would never read anything like it again.

Addison... Supposedly a PR exec. I say supposedly. She was... but she was unconvincing. I highly doubt the author knows what one does and picked the job title because it was easy to spell. The woman with D-cups doesn't wear bras because her "tits can pass the pencil test". Love, you don't wear a bra with D-cups and firstly you're getting back ache, and secondly, won't be passing that pencil test for much longer - I don't care how artificial they are. Let's combine these two aspects and you've got a girl on a tour bus for a current-hype rock tour. All professionalism goes out the window with all of them. One minute within meeting Addison and the whole band wants to sleep with her. Luckily for the lead singer and the manager, she's got her eyes on them. But will it be as simple as it seems when she's not had sex for seven years because she's not over her dead fiancé? Did I mention the dead fiancé is the brother of the manager? Yeah, apparently it will be simple.

The first date (as in rock show), she's not allowed out in the crowd without security because she's just so damn Mary-Sue *ahem* hot, that the band are worried she'll get swept away by some other guy. . On top of that, (again, we're still at the first show), she's now become the band's good luck charm - from here on out, none of them can go on stage unless she gives them all a good luck kiss each first. .

If we ignore the main character, Talon and Kyle were pretty reasonable characters. I think I would have preferred reading a love story between the two of them, because that relationship seemed genuine, cute, and natural. They were what kept me going through this story.

The sex was... It wasn't bad, and rather enjoyable... but it was all about Addison. Yawn.

One of the bloggers I follow listed this as being free, so I didn't have to pay for it, THANK GOD! I certainly won't be rereading it, and I certainly wouldn't recommend it. I don't know, nor care, what other works the author has out, because I won't be reading anything else by her. Overall, a bad first impression.

ARC given in exchange for an honest review.

Zoey has brought us Sex, Drugs, and Rock n Roll in her new book Claiming Addison. She has most defiantly redefined the saying. The book introduces us to some sexually driven and gorgeous characters Addison, Kyle, and Talon.

We all know that Olivia Cunnings provided us with rockers and smut (love it), Kylie Scott gave us Rockers, Sweet and those words, Lord have mercy she gave us those words. Well Zoey gave us Rockers, Words (Fantastic), hotness, and smut to the nth power.

The entire book in charged with a wonderful storyline and gorgeousness.

The first person we meet is Addison. I like her. She is brand new, not to Public Relations or the music industry but to love and showing herself to others. She is always behind the scenes being the fixer.

Next we meet Kyle. He is in control, the manager of 69 bottles and very complimentary to the band. He is sweet and smooth.

Last we meet Talon, the hot lead singer of the group. He can melt panties with his smile. He is know, like his band mates to have new women in his bed, nightly. I like his swagger (style).

When these three people meet, the idea of couplings and sex is changed. The sex in this book was flawless and will make you a little drenched. I could see people changing their panties a couple of times while reading. This book should come with a warning label.

There is self-discovery, sex, drama, sex, redefining, and sex. This book is not just about sex, though there is a great amount in the book, the development of the story was smooth and easy to follow. I didn’t want to put the book down but it was a must with the pantie change.

MMF, MFM, FMM, I am all for ménage’s and I generally do not read MMF books. I have in the past, well it is just not one of my interest. Zoey makes me very comfortable and brings out a side of voyeurism I did not know I had. I read the books but the detail in this book literally made me feel a though I was present during the bed/shower/wall a-shaking.

Zoey brings back Cami and Tristan. Yes! Loved them in series a Love’s Wings.

This book is part of a three book series and I want more book two and three now.

Happy Reading.

I really enjoyed the band and the tour setting. I also liked the characters but sometimes I missed a deeper connection and some more chemistry between them.

The book had some lengths but overall it could entertain me well. The steamy scenes were pretty hot and I am looking forward to more about the three.

Zoey Derrick really ROCKED IT OUT with this new series! Claiming Addison is a knock your socks off, steamy and erotic, fun and exciting romance that will have you pumped up from the very first chapter. Did I mention it was a ménage romance? No? Silly me! It is only my favorite kind of romance, and the author did such a great job at creating an intense and emotional connection between the three. There is no denying the chemistry in this hot little treat!

Sensual kisses, beautiful embraces, intense looks, this trio has definitely captivated my heart.

Demons from the past, questions from the present, and an unknown future, has me itching for more.

Claiming Addison was so much more than just hot sex between two men and one woman. It has such a great story behind it. The character development was on point, the building storyline has me hooked, and the humor here and there was a great addition to the story.

Claiming Addison is about pushing boundaries, letting go of the past, and living in the present. With twists and turns and quite a bit of sensual foreplay, this first book in the 69 Bottles series by Zoey Derrick is sure to be a hit, with people like me counting down the days until we can get our hands on more of the sassy Addison, calm but sexy Kyle, and the ever so gorgeous and demanding Talon!

This book is 5 panty melting, have your vibrator handy, stars!!!!! Not only is it HOT I like the storyline as well. I loved the characters. I laughed, swooned, got all hot and fell in love a little.

Addison is an ambitious career woman. She has worked hard to get where she is but has also sacrificed a lot along the way. After tragedy hit her hard she put all her time and energy into her career as a PR person for musicians. She has finally earned a promotion and a big opportunity. Going on tour with 69 Bottles! This is life changing, do well here and who knows where her career could go! Little does she know that this tour will change her life in so many more ways that just her PR career. Addison is a girl that would be awesome to hang out with. She is fun, sarcastic, witty, and smart. I would definitely want to hang out with her if she were a real person.

Talon is the lead singer for 69 Bottles and is HOT!!! He is a talented song writer and very passionate about what he does. His bandmates and manager are truly his family. He cares for them and takes care of them. He has a heart of gold but don’t let that make you think he is soft for any reason.

Kyle…Kyle has some secrets that we get to find out about. Some will shock you and others will make you feel sad for him. He is also HOT but in a different way than Talon. As the band’s manger he is more refined and business like. Kyle and Talon are best friends and have been through a lot together but nothing will bring them closer than Addison.

I absolutely loves this book. It was a quick, sexy read with great characters. I can’t wait for Craving Talon to come out.

So...I bought this book on a whim, given the cover and blurb, but never got to it until now. Thank you Sheila :).

We all know the blurb, so I won't rehash it here.

Addison comes off as being a complete no-nonsense badass, and while this is true to an extent, it doesn't quite cover her generous (and broken) nature. She'd experienced a huge loss in her life and so has dedicated herself to her work and her clients. Talon and Kyle *sigh*. Both guys couldn't be more different and I'm glad Addison didn't have to choose between them 'cos that would have been the shitty motherload of all decisions.

This book deals with a threesome couple and, of course, there's going to be sex. If you're surprised, well...I don't know what to say to you about that. At any rate, now that you have been sufficiently warned, let me just give you some advice - make sure you have an extra (or several) set of panties available, as well as a free hand (if you know what I'm saying) while reading this book. This should give you an idea of how hot the sex is. But, much more than sex, the passion and electricity and connection between Addison, Kyle and Talon is off the charts and you can't help, on some level, wishing it for yourself.

While there isn't much of a story (yet), given that it's just part 1 of 3, Ms Derrick did a great job setting up the framework for the dynamic and unconventional relationship between all three characters.

I'm now on the second book and I can't wait for the journey Ms Derrick is going to take me on.

Read it and you won't be disappointed!!!!

I was gonna give this two stars because it probably would've been just that if I had bothered to read it instead of skimming. But I can do what I want and I didn't like the book. This is probably because I went into the book wanting some MMF action and not story. It took too long for that action to come and I wasn't gonna read about all the rockstar/band hijinks that are common place in this type of book. I've been there done that and got tired of it. When the action finally started I couldn't get into it because of the stops and starts. So, in the end this was a boring read for me.

I also call bullsh*t on

And oh yeah, a particular line annoyed me
