Valentine's Day is about to become Valentine's Week.
Gabe Harris is the man with five lovers.
Since reconnecting with Ellen, he has begun dating four more women, has one theoretically waiting in the wings, and has begun relationships of varying casualness with four more women. He has been doing his best to craft a new life. Not just for himself, but for the women he loves. And he's been doing good.
All of that comes to a crashing halt when he remembers that Valentine's Day is right around the corner. And now, Gabe finds himself facing the most difficult, arduous challenge of his entire planning Valentine's Day dates for ten women. In a row.
I am Misty Vixen (not my real name obviously), and I imagine that if you’re reading this, you want to know a bit more about me.
In the beginning (late 2014), I was an erotica author. I wrote about sex, specifically about human men banging hot inhuman women. Monster girls, alien ladies, paranormal babes. It was a lot of fun, but as the years went on, I realized that I was actually striving to be a harem author. This didn’t truly occur to me until late 2019-early 2020. Once the realization fully hit, I began doing research on what it meant to be a harem author. I’m kind of a slow learner, so it’s taken me a bit to figure it all out.
That being said, I’m now a harem author!
Just about everything I write nowadays is harem fiction: one man in loving, romantic, highly sexual relationships with several women. Nowadays, I tend to write more human on human stuff, but I still have a lot of non-human ladies in mind for the future, so if that’s your thing then stick around.
I’d say beyond writing harems, I tend to have themes that I always explore in my fiction, and they encompass things like trust, communication, respect, honesty, dealing with emotional problems in a mature way…basically I like writing about functional and healthy relationships. Not every relationship is perfect, but I don’t really do drama unless the story actually calls for it. In total honesty, I hate drama. I hate people lying to each other and I hate needless rom-com BS plots that could have been solved by two characters having a two minute conversation.
This book was pretty good, but there wasn't much in the way of development with the MC and his LIs. Yes, one woman joined the "wives", but it was fairly anticlimactic. The book is basically the MC trying to provide each of the LIs a unique Valentine's Day date. And while it was cute and clever, it doesn't really move the plot along too much. The series now has the MC with 5 live in LIs, plus 4 that are frequently around, and then the randoms he has sex with. It's a little much for a current day setting.
I want to say I have spent the last week and a half reading from book 1 chapter 1 and love everything, I hope you continue with the series but I know like most things there will eventually come an end I just hope it is far in the future. Thank you for the amazing series.
This has been an amazing journey with lots of personal evolution and growth! Fantastic to see each character come into their own. This book 6 had more overt sex scenes than the previous books, and some of the Dom/brat scenes were a bit against my own feelings, nonetheless, the group interactions were fabulous!
Every single entry into this series is a banger. It’s worth your time. It’s fun, heartfelt and just generally makes you feel good after reading it. Do your self a favor and buy it.
There really can be too much of a good thing and if not balanced, it will catch up to you. Gabe is border lining it but my God is he fun to read about.
I absolutely love this series. They have been consistently setting the standard for well-written Male MC in harem fantasy and this story just proved it more.
Normally I've been more critical of this series. But it does keep me coming back.
Is it a meandering slice of life no big overarching plot? Yes. Is that bad? Not necessarily.
There is a story to be told even if it uses just getting into mostly character development to do it. There's definitely a feel of pushing against convention, of making consent sexy, of normalizing Polyamorous type of relationships, and of treating people like people instead of objects (out of the bedroom) is sexy.
I can relate to those things, and the hangups the main character has worked on over the series. It's being able to relate some to what's going on, along with all the smut, that keeps me coming back.
Finally not a huge amount of grammatical issues, always a big plus when thought it out on top making it an easier read.
Another good book in the series. Characters are entertaining and the story is enjoyable. Adding another girl and pursuing the hot landlady was fun. On to the finale.
