This was a really sweet read. When Monty and Josie realize they could use an extra hand around the house (as Josie recovers from her c-section), they hire a friend of theirs, Evie Parker. As she begins to help and fit into their lives, they all realize they want more - and that Evie might just be the piece they are missing.
I love a throuple relationship and the communication in this was so good. Josie and Monty are always on the same page with what they want - and it keeps you flipping through the pages as it becomes clear that they are what Evie wants as well. There's tons of cute moments where we see what a good fit Evie is with their family, and how much she loves their kids Shiloh and Hayes. The slow burn between them is well-done, and I love how we get moments of them together and then individually once things begin to heat up. Their relationship feels so believable and that was my favorite part in this book!
There are some scenes that I wish had a little more depth to them . The miscommunication at the end was a little frustrating but you are able to see why Evie felt the way she did, and it's satisfying how much Monty and Josie comfort and love her after. There are also some themes I struggled to connect with, but I do think they were handled well.
If you are looking for a sweet and spicy MFF romance, you will love this!

[I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review, thank you so much Dee Jordan and Luna Literary Management! 📖]
Maybe, Something More was such a sweet, tender, spicy, emotionally healing love story and I absolutely adored this trio with my whole heart😭.
Evie is struggling HARD when she ends up answering a job posting from a married couple looking for help with their newborn. From the second she meets Josie and Monty the chemistry is already chemistry-ing👀🔥
The relationship never felt rushed or shallow. Watching these three slowly build trust, friendship, comfort, and eventually love felt SO genuine. You could truly feel how much they all needed each other🥹.
Monty and Josie were already such a solid couple, and instead of Evie feeling like an “addition,” she genuinely became part of their family. The domestic moments in this book absolutely melted me😭💕. The parenting scenes, the late night comfort, the teasing, the support… I was obsessed with all of it.
This book also handled postpartum recovery and c-section healing in such a real and refreshing way, which I really appreciated.
And listen… the spice?👀🔥 This book definitely brings the heat while still keeping the emotional connection front and center.
What you’ll find: 💖 MFF romance 🏡 Live in nanny 💖 Found family 👶 Parenthood & postpartum rep 💖 Forced proximity 🫶🏾 Healthy communication 💖 Golden retriever MMC 🌶️ Sweet + spicy balance 💖 Emotional healing 🏡 “You fit here with us” energy
The emotional moments REALLY got me too. Evie’s fears and insecurities broke my heart at times, and I loved how much Josie and Monty showed up for her.
This was warm, comforting, sexy, and full of love in all forms🥹💕
loved this book so dang much! It is my first FFM book and it starting with a healthy married couple was a relationship dynamic I was excited to read about. I loved everything about this book! I loved Josie and Monty as a married couple, I loved how Evie came into their life (I love a good nanny + parent trope), I loved how they parented the boys, and how the relationship with Evie started and progressed. I loved the REAL depiction of life after a C-Section (as a c-section momma, I appreciate the holy heck out of this) and life post-partum. I loved their friend group. There is not a single thing I would change about this book, I adored everything! The third act broke my heart a little bit, that flashback 😭 I can't imagine being in Evie's situation. Grab the tissues, that was tear producing. Their friends are the best and Monty and Josie are the absolute best pair for Evie. I adore them all so dang much!!
Thank you, Dee Jordan and Luna Literary, for an advanced copy of this eBook.
This was such a sweet read! I like the way Josie and Monty were always open with each other about their feelings. They were so cute together and so clearly meant to be.
Evie was just the sweet addition they didn't know they needed. She was so good with the 2 boys and with Josie and Monty.
It was a slow burn build up but I like that they all 3 took their time to make sure it's what they all wanted. They were all so sweet together and just made sense, Evie was the missing puzzle piece all along.
The whole story was written well. It showed what being a parent is actually like and how relationships can be with children.
It had a sweet epilogue that ended the story perfectly! It's definitely a book for you if you're interested to see how a 3 person relationship can be and enjoy a sweet and spicy romance. ❤️
We all know reading is subjective, and that is very true when it comes to this book. I can’t point out something particularly wrong with it, and though it is a realistic take on parenting and healthy communication, and it also explores a very interesting dynamic, I was not feeling connected to the characters nor the story, and I don’t know why. There’s a chance that the author and her writing style is simply not for me. I hope other people will enjoy this more than I did.
What you will find in Maybe, Something More: - FFM - Couple x Nanny - Golden Retriever MMC - Curvy FMC - LGBTQIA+ Representation - Lactation Kink - C-Section Awareness
I have been SO excited about this book because I loveeeee a FFM dynamic. Evie, Josie, and Monty are so adorable and sweet together. I loved their friendship turned more and the instant attraction that they all felt.
🩷Nanny romance 🩷Married couple looking for more 🩷Forced proximity 🩷Lactation k!nk
After having their second child, Josie and Monty are looking for a nanny. And when a friend of a friend, who they are both insanely attracted to, is recommended, they jump on it.
Evie has been through a lot in her life and Josie and Monty really are the perfect couple for her. They give her everything she needs and vice versa.
This book has so many spicy moments, while having an equal amount of heartwarming moments.
ARC review ( may contain spoilers) Monty (mmc)- carefree, fun/ playful with adhd Josie (fmc)- caretaker, “glue that holds us all together “ Evie (fmc)- fun nanny, photographer
Evie being the nanny to help Josie and Monty postpartum. When Evie care broke down and she moved in to their loft was a right move for the growth of their relationship. Evie doing all these little gifts when came up with the boys to give to Josie was the sweetest thing and it showed that cared. Overall I really loved the book and how all characters were shown. How they communicated to help and grow their relationship. How the family grew from four to eight.

I was lucky enough to arc read book one to this series so was very excited to read book two. It was lovely to see the characters make an appearance and see how their lives intertwined. Book two is a different style and I wasn’t sure if it was going to be for me! But boy was I wrong!!! I devoured it within two days and just loved seeing Evie get her HEA! An FFM romance involving a couple and their nanny, navigating a triad relationship. What I loved most about this book was the c section awareness, having had two emergencies ones myself I could really relate to it and I think it covered the topic perfectly!

“Where Evie’s presence in our life doesn’t feel like an extra person who’s helping out or our employee. She feels like a piece that could easily fit into our lives. Maybe even make it better.”
Such an amazing take on parent x nanny. A very beloved trope for me combined with my love of adding partners I knew the chance of this book being one I talk about for years to come was way too high. I love Evie and wish her backstory was talked about a tad more. I also love how the story keeps track of time. It's very sweet.
Evie, Josie and Monty's story was full of emotions. Josie and Monty are deeply in love but have thought about adding a third for a long time but nothing has felt right. When they meet Evie, they are all instantly attracted but know they can't jump into things. Especially when she becomes their nanny after Josie's C-section with their second child. The communication between all three and the navigation of becoming a triad, not just a fling was great to see. The C-section and ADHD representation was great as well.
Loved the characters! Loved the story! I really enjoyed the relationship between Monty and Josie, and the dynamics that brought in Evie. The triad relationship, I feel, was handled really well. Yes they were all instantly attracted to each other, but getting there took communication and thought. Communication, due to past trauma, came more slowly to Evie, but with this found family she was able to grow and get her HEA.
4⭐ 4 🌶️ Maybe, Something More is a sweet, spicy, emotional polyamory romance! I love Josie, Evie, and Monty's story! It's a beautifully written, fun, easy read! I love that they encouraged an open communication with zero judgement. I love how protective Monty is over Josie and Evie. I love how Josie and Monty as well as Harper helped Evie heal from her past trauma. This is such a beautiful story! Thank you Dee and Luna Literary PR for including me as an ARC reader!!
Maybe, Something More is a married couple/nanny, close proximity romance that has sweet moments and emotionally tender moments.
Evie is in a hard spot when she gets a call about a nanny position for the couple she has been crushing on. Monty and Josie are solid as a couple, communication is great between them and when Evie comes into the home, she fits like a missing piece of a puzzle.
For me, I found it hard to be invested in the characters.
This book was written so well with a different style of life. Evie reminds me of myself with her anxiety and the scared of trust in a relationship. I love that the author was able to talk about the struggles that mothers go through after birth and the mental impact of having a new baby. I love the trio together in a relationship with their babies.
The beginning dragged a wee bit, but once we got through the first few chapters I enjoyed it! Loved the Csection rep (csection mom of three over here) and loved how real Monty’s ADHD was represented too. I’ll defiantly be adding the first book to my TBR and will be keeping an eye out for future books in this series!
loved this book. its my first triad spicy book that i have read. i felt the characters in the book were perfect and everything flowed nicely. i was so happy to be on the ARC team for this one. literally cannot wait for the next book. this author has talent. will be keeping an eye out for book 3. its a spicy book with cosy vibes.... whats not to like?
I will admit I had to go back and re-read parts of book one to refresh my memory. This is not my normal type of read, but I found it totally enjoyable. The dynamic between Josie, Monty and Evie is so engaging. I could not turn the pages fast enough. I love when books take me out of my normal trope. Loved it. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
ARC Gaaa I loved this book from the first page. A throuple is a hard one to write and get right (IMO) and the way Dee wrote it was perfect! A well established couple not actively looking for a 3rd but she shows up and is perfect , and the way all the back stories are written is is seamless too!
I really enjoyed Maybe Something More! I loved how the raw and relatable moments that come along with parenthood! I also really like the dynamics between the characters!
Thank you to Dee Jordan and Luna Literary for this ARC! All opinions are my own!
I love how we follow Josie’s journey post partum. I enjoyed evies character. She shows so much growth here! Overall I thought this one was super cute & down to earth but sexy.
I absolutely loved this and devoured it in a day and a half . This was my first FFM book and it didn’t disappoint.
I really enjoyed the plot which was quite complex and felt the at it wasn’t overshadowed by the spice as is often the case. The spice was just the right amount (maybe a bit more girl on girl needed but that’s just my thoughts )
I’m looking forward to reading more from this author
I really enjoyed Monty, Josie and Evie's story, it's beautifully written, sweet, slow burn and interesting look at a 3 person relationship with a realistic look at parenthood and how relationships can be with children.
Great epilogue 💕
Thank you Dee and Luna Literary for the ARC opportunity 💕

I loved this book so much! It's the first FFM book I've read and it was such a great change. The relationship between Josie and Monty is so healthy and beautiful and the way they added Evie to their relationship was so sweet. I especially loved how communication was key. Green flags all around.
