69 Bottles #3
Redeeming Kyle
Falling in love was the easy part… For Talon Carver, the commanding and charismatic lead singer of the rock band 69 Bottles, life has never been better—or worse. His heart’s at a full 11 for Addison Beltrand, his feisty PR rep. But admitting it was a much different tune. The dilemma’s even more complicated when adding his other lover to the Kyle Black, the band’s handsome, sweet and sexy manager. Why ruin a good thing, right? Things are pretty damn perfect for the trio—in and out of bed. But just when they find their best rhythm with each other, a rocky night in Minneapolis forces all three to reexamine their feelings—and take their relationship to new levels. But can love be enough? The band’s soaring popularity, along with the pressures of maintaining an unconventional relationship on a high-profile rock tour, start to take their toll. When Addison starts to fall apart, Talon and Kyle must come to terms with how important she is to them both. Can Addison find the strength to be their glue once more? What happens when the world goes on…but yours suddenly stops? When everything looks like it’s going to fall apart? Is love enough to bring Talon, Kyle, and Addison back to each other’s arms…and with it, the magic that true redemption can bring? ****Content Warning**** Sexy, naked, bisexual rock stars…and a lot more… This book contains, but is not limited to the following sexual content – reader discretion is advised - hot sex between two men and one woman. M/M/F, M/F/M, M/F, F/M and M/M sexual content. There are no boundaries when these three crash together, as long as you’re over 18 years of age.

The 69 Bottles series ends on a high note.
I get nervous when a series I love wraps up with a final book. I fell in love these freakin' characters and no matter what, I knew I wasn't going to be able to let them go easily...
That being said, Zoey Derrick managed to end this series up in a way which left me smiling, satisfied, and excited about future spinoffs. We learned a great deal more about the other band members of 69 Bottles and that leads me to believe that we're going to get books on their individual romances. I see that there's already a Taming Dex in the works, and I'm crossing my fingers for a Mouse/Peacock book. I'll beg for that one if necessary. Not exaggerating.
In addition to the possible/probable spin-offs, we were gifted with TWO epilogues! I won't get spoilery with you, but those epilogues really solidified my satisfaction with this book - Sometimes readers NEED an epilogue to let us know that our beloved characters continue to love and thrive after the book finishes. The epilogues in this book did all that and more... So many warm fuzzies :)
Ok... Speaking of being spoilery...
We've got a grey area on my commitment to not spoiling plot-lines in my reviews.
My unwritten rule is that if a major spoiler is the central focus of the plot for more than 75% of the book, I will spoil that shit every time ;) Hey, it's hard to write vague reviews for 75% of a book... Just sayin.
So - If you haven't read the first two books of this series, I'm going to need you to Not Click this spoiler tag:
So much character progression.
So much genuine and touching emotion.
Gah!
My feels may never recover from the emotional give and take of this book - how lovely to be affected so deeply by a work of fiction.
This is Erotic Romance elevating the genre.
It was an absolute pleasure read.
I'm going to rehash something I've said before about this series, because I don't think I can say it often enough:
This is a brilliantly written MMF Romance.
MMF Romances appeal to me because they have a certain kind of angst involved in the relationship department. They have to be well-written or everything falls apart. It's easy to write a spicy threesome, but it takes talent to write an engaging (and at least mildly believable) Romance between three characters.
The reader has to LIKE all three of the parties involved. If any of the three MCs rub the reader the wrong way, we will immediately start hoping that the trio turns into a happy duo.
There are so many pieces of information which must come together to satisfy the reader's desire to know that this (yes, I know it's fictional) relationship, however uncommon, is built to last.
That's a lot of suspension of disbelief. It is hard enough to accomplish a believable love story between two parties...
But this is about THREE.
Three personalities...
Three back-stories...
One relationship...
And, yes, one bed...
Addison Beltrand
She had her hot-mess moments in this book, but this was an emotionally charged installment of the 69 Bottles series and all three MCs reached a breaking point or two over the course of this book.
Kyle Black
He broke my heart. He warmed my heart.
Talon Carver
Talon is definitely Book Boyfriend material - Friend, lover, partner... Oh he's one swoony motherfucker!
Oh, And if you're wondering... This book was just as deliciously hot as the rest of the series. MMF rock stars will do that. Yum!
Side Note: There's an Exclusive Panty-Melting NSFW excerpt from this book on my blog, The Smutsonian. You should check it out. It's wonderfully sexy and spoiler free!
One more thing: I am honored beyond measure to be listed in the acknowledgements of this book. I've loved every moment of this series, it was so easy to fall in love with. Thank you for sharing your stories with me, Zoey!
Redeeming Kyle goes live on March 31st but you can Pre-Order on Amazon.

"...We have no secrets, we have no lies. Everything between the three of us is real and it's raw. We've done in six weeks what couples strive for over years and we're three people, which makes it harder..."I have a lot of warm fuzzy, gushy, happy FEELs about his book.

Addison Beltrand
"I'm terrified that we're testing the boundaries of our new relationship beyond what we're ready for, what we're capable of. That this is going to destroy whatever we have building between us..."Addison is a wonderfully strong, smart, and fun female lead - I adored her from the very first book and she didn't let me down once.
She had her hot-mess moments in this book, but this was an emotionally charged installment of the 69 Bottles series and all three MCs reached a breaking point or two over the course of this book.
Kyle Black
"Kyle Black, I love you with all of my heart and every ounce of my soul. I am not going anywhere, I refuse. You and Talon are who I am, you're who I'm meant to be with..."Talon might be the Rock Star in this relationship, but Kyle really took the spotlight in this book. He had a lot of personal issues to work out and several metaphorical demons to slay before he could give himself completely over to his relationship with Addison and Talon.
He broke my heart. He warmed my heart.
Talon Carver
"...I fell in love with you the moment I laid eyes on you. I knew then that I would spend the rest of my life with you. I loved you so much that I couldn't make you choose between him and me. Then I fell in love with him, and I fell in love with us and I fell so hard...."Talon really wowed me in this book. He never completely fit into the stereotypical Rock Star trope, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised at the level of tenderness he can achieve when interacting with Kyle and Addison.
Talon is definitely Book Boyfriend material - Friend, lover, partner... Oh he's one swoony motherfucker!
Oh, And if you're wondering... This book was just as deliciously hot as the rest of the series. MMF rock stars will do that. Yum!

Wow, I really did enjoy this trilogy with Addison, Talon, and Kyle... What a ride!
I loved how the author wraps up their lives and the people around them in a tight little bow for me that I don't feel it's necessary to continue the 69Bottles series.
So thanks again Zoey Derrick for entertaining me and the hot, steamy, make you blush sex scenes. (fanning my self... whew, it hot!)
Overall rating:
4.5* ~ A Very Good Read

10 Outrageous Stars
I was given this book by the author for my honest review by the author.
You are cordially invited to read and discover hot hot sex, a sexy 69 Bottles band with many twists that one will need boxes of tissues for. So come take this final journey with me as I did them.
Marshmallow, chocolate and graham cracker a.k.a(S’mores) a sticky yet delectable treat that we all have had one time or another in our youth. As we have come to become adults s’mores will always be a part of our yesterday and our future tomorrows. The combination of the chocolate and marshmallow being squished by the crackers was just a site to see, eat and feel. As with the infamous s’mores we can look upon the memories of yesterday with our favorite family times, our first kiss with laughter eating s’mores and thinking can life get any better? Of course we think another s’mores and heaven descends smiles upon our faces.
This is the 3rd and final book in this series and needs to be read in order.
As Talon, Kyle and Addison come to finding mystery in their unique relationship with doubts that lie within each will this sweet relationship be able to find their true forever within the arms of three?
Addison is unique but with the love that she carries for Talon and Kyle a sweet descent is given to her heart that makes the love for them become even stronger. But as her heart begins to grow within her the fears that she can’t just be the woman that started this journey with these two men become evident. Will the fear make her stronger or will she just willow and fall within her own?
Kyle and Talon both have issues when it comes to Addison but not the issues of love. The love that the both carry for Addison is unconditional and forever, but the love that has been building within these two hotness of men also has come to be enlightened. As the love comes so are the fears within each that could possibly tear the duo apart. Will this duo walk away from each or continue on a path of togetherness? Will Addison be the glue or will more arise that becomes the strength to carry them to their forever as three? This is their unique journey.
Please note: This book contains so much awesome sex between two and three that having ice-cubes on hand in a cooler may definitely be needed.
To the author: You have given me such highs and lows within these pages that you write with so much passion that it is hard to fathom at times. You have also given whoever reads your pages many hopes and dreams that what an unconventional relationship may be to others can work if the unconditional love is within their hearts. Within the pages you have written panda’s are more than just black and white they are unique in their own way and as cubs they are more electrifying. So thank you once again for this most hotness of reads.
To the readers: Please enjoy this final read of this series.
Happy Reading

A series I liked not loved but had to finish to see what happened in the end.
Who wouldn't love a rock god and his manager to sandwich between. Every womans dream!!!
Addison had everything handed to her on a plate with these two they totally doted on her hand and foot. I found my eyes rolling in my head a few times but the sex between the three of them more than made up for it.
Kyle and Talon and the rest of 69 Bottles all great characters.

~*~ 4.5 STARS ~*~
Consider me TEAM 69 BOTTLES all the way! Intense, emotional, and incredibly erotic, Redeeming Kyle will hypnotize you and make you its bitch! Carnal desires are brought to fruition. Relationships are pushed to the brink. Emotions run on high. Ms. Derrick pulled out all the stops in her latest installment of the 69 Bottles series.
With a VERY intense first chapter, we immediately dive back into this erotic, lust filled, rock star world. Love blossoms within our favorite menage, but it becomes a little bit too much for one member of the threesome. Running scared, Kyle decides he needs a breather from the intensity of it all. Talon is left to pick up the pieces with Addison, continuing to make her feel safe and loved. I applaud Talon in this installment of the series. He really kicked ass on all of his speeches he gave in the book. I wanted to jump up and down for that man. I feel like Kyle and Talon switched places in this book. Kyle, to me, was always the grounded one of the group, but when Kyle decided to run off, Talon was there, making sure everything stayed together, becoming the glue, that Kyle once was. Will their love be enough to bring Kyle back, or will Talon's love be strong enough to get them through this storm. Will the love that they all share be enough to redeem a man who is completely lost?
I didn't want this book to end! I have fallen in love with Addison, Talon, and Kyle and the intense, epic love that they all share. They have been through so much, and yet, they have come out stronger than ever. The devotion and adoration that these two men have for their woman was beautiful and touching. There is so much in store for you guys in REDEEMING KYLE. Just make sure you are prepared with plenty of tissues, because, oh yes, there will be tons of tears, AND keep a cold beverage close by because the HOT factor has just been turned up a couple notches.

What's more desirable and passionate than having two gorgeous men tending to your every single physical and emotional need? Ummmm, nothing, of course. I have so many favorite parts of this book highlighted, but I don't want to ruin the plot for anyone. I went in blind and so should you!
I was able to experience vicariously through Addi the most sensual and erotic menage a trois sex ever written. As passionate and titillating as the sex is, it doesn't overshadow the emotional aspects of the plot. Instead, the love making enhances all of the other parts of the narrative. Sex isn't just a physical act in this book, it is an act of unbridled passion and intimacy that burned the pages up with its intensity.
We have been given the perfect end to this fairytale-like love affair between Addison, Kyle, and Talon. I won't say it was all rainbows and unicorn farts because it definitely had its share of angst and on-the-edge-of-my-seat cussing-out-Zoey-for-putting-me-through-this moments. There is a reason it's called Redeeming Kyle...we'll just leave it at that.
As vexed and disconsolate as the characters made me feel at times I never doubted that I would enjoy the book as a whole when the roller coaster ride was over. After three books with these people I can't help but feel that I know them intimately and truly endured in my heart every emotion they each experienced. My anguish during the difficult periods is only a testament to the insanely gifted writing skills of Zoey Derrick. She pulls you in and refuses to let go until she's done with you.
I'm so very glad to have went on this ride and I can't wait to read about the other members of 69 Bottles in upcoming books!

Spoiler Ahead
This was the third book in the 69 bottles series. This was a really goo book a surprise pregnancy has thrown the trio off. For Addie it is a dream come true having been told that she would never be able to conceive for the guys it was more of not being ready to become fathers although each one handled it differently. Kyle felt helpless because she was sick with morning sickness and he almost walked away from them. I think that Talon handled better he just went with it although he had a lot of fears about being a good father. The book was different from the first two books has this book was more focused on the trio. This book had a few surprises like Eric being gay and in love with Mouse and the fact that he felt that he had to hide it from the band which they knew and didn't care and then their is Dex who cleaned up his act for Raine. I liked how Ms. Derrick lets you feel every nuance of their pain, their happiness, their doubts, their fears and whatever else the characters felt. When Kyle left and was drunk for three days I wanted to slap him and I was glad when Talon decked him. This book was full of emotions from all of them. This book was well written like the first two books. This book has some pretty hot sex scenes and I loved that Talon and Kyle got closer. The trio faced some pretty big changes in their lives I liked the fact that they had a commitment ceremony. I also liked that the book had two epilogues and the author included updates on the other character's in the book. This was a really good and hot series if you like reading about menage couples with hot rocker's than I recommend that you read this book.

I’ve been eagerly awaiting the final story for this seriously hot triad. The first two books were excellent so it’s no surprise I devoured this book in a matter of hours. Once again, the characters were sexy, fun, and full of all kinds of totally complex emotions. There is so much going on in this book and how these three people deal with all of that is incredible.
Talon, Addison, and Kyle have dealt with a hell of a lot in the short time they’ve been together. They’ve been tested time and again and it’s awesome to see how far they’ve all come since the first book. They’ve all grown as people and it’s obvious they’ve all done that because of their relationship. Talon and Kyle both have difficulties voicing their feelings at first (especially towards each other) but they are both so sweet and it was obvious that it was only a matter of time. Addison had plenty of her own issues but she got through them. I absolutely love these characters and their passion and intense emotion.
The story line was just as moving as the other two books. It was full of all kinds of emotions and they felt real. I had to stop and remind myself that they were not real people. Now THAT is the sign of good character development. I also liked how we got to know the other band members a little more and I hope they get their own books. This was a wonderful ending to Talon, Addison, and Kyle’s story but I hope we get glimpses of them in the other band members’ books. 5 out of 5 stars!!

Wow... This is the final installment to Addison, Talon and Kyle's story and it was perfection !!!
Redeeming Kyle picks up right where book 2 left off..
There relationship is growing at a rapid speed. While feeling have been admitted it seems to put added pressure on them, and slowly things start to fall apart for this sexy trio..
Insecurities take hold and it send them in a downward spiral and leaving them all broken. This story is still Hot as Hell, but it is also an emotional one full of Love, loss, understanding, and most important forgiveness.
This has been an Phenomenal Series I highly recommend reading it.

Redeeming Kyle picks up right where book 2 left off..
There relationship is growing at a rapid speed. While feeling have been admitted it seems to put added pressure on them, and slowly things start to fall apart for this sexy trio..
Insecurities take hold and it send them in a downward spiral and leaving them all broken. This story is still Hot as Hell, but it is also an emotional one full of Love, loss, understanding, and most important forgiveness.
This has been an Phenomenal Series I highly recommend reading it.

Ugh, I started of with book #1 and thought, "oh, this is going to be good" worse part is, this was my first M/F/M. Very disappointed this kept going downhill from #1-3. Hell, Addison was the alpha here, and dang the males were...weak, they had the female role if you ask me, if that wasn't bad enough Addison became so whiney and the "story" so damn cheesy and there was still no story I found in this final book, I literally skimmed quickly over the pages to get to the end so I could see what played out and yes it got worse, the way it turned out with their "situation" come on really?! How convienent. I so jumped the gun on recommending this to many friends. This was just plain bad.

I hate to say it but this last book didn't deliver for me, it felt very monotonous & I was sadly bored :(

STOP. If this is your first look at a 69 Bottles book, stash this one away for a bit and pick up the first two to get the full effect of this highly combustible series!
An untimely brush with a pregnancy test leaves PR guru Addison feeling vulnerable, and she and her men feeling uncertain on the future. Still riding the height of popularity on their 69 Bottles tour and having only been together a few weeks, she, Talon and Kyle struggle to manage not only the band, but also the new dynamics of their triad. Can the new love they feel for one another overcome the trepidation and fear of the future? Can their burgeoning relationship survive the twists and turns life throws at them?
The third and final book in the 69 Bottles Trilogy, REDEEMING KYLE is chock full of angsty melodrama, mostly by the big strong men, but it also continues with the wild hot monkey sex that was such a draw in the first two books. Although Addison was fabulous in the second book, I found myself irritated with her mood-swingy personality (though Ms. Derrick totally nailed the pregnant lady mental ass kicking). I also quickly grew tired of the constant reassurances of adoration and support and undying love from each one of the MC's; it seems like every other sentence was filled with an "I love you so much." "I needed to hear that." "I love you more." "I feel so loved!" (A quick word count put the number of mentions of love in this story at around 225). And on and on. It's GREAT that the three of them adore each other madly but creatively it felt one dimensional at times.
I'm not sure what happened to the last third of the book...it was going strong, the pregnancy storyline not terribly exciting, but still somewhat entertaining, and then BOOM. Total writing turnaround. We're talking choppy sentences, fast, outline type paragraphs, editing errors, etc. It honestly felt like a completely different book. And while I still rooted for the HEA, I lost a lot of love for the MC's and how they each handled Addison's pregnancy. That said, the sex was still excruciatingly erotic and porn-star spectacular. In fact, the bouncy bedroom bonanza was the best part of REDEEMING KYLE.
Bottom Line: Don't judge the entire series based on this final book. You'll NEED this book to finish out the wild ride that Addison, Talon, Kyle and the other members of 69 Bottles take you on. - See more at: http://glbt.theromancereviews.com/vie...

I would give this book 10 STARS if I could, and I would give Zoey Derrick a huge hug for writing such a heartfelt beautiful erotic love story!
Sad does even come close to describing how I feel that this is the last book in the 69 Bottles series!! It has been such an enticing story and I have grown to love Addison, Talon and Kyle. When I started reading Book 1, Claiming Addison, I thought that it was going to be a great erotic love story, and yes, it totally was erotic, a threesome, ménage a trios all the time, need I say more, but it then becomes so much more than the sex. These books are about a very special relationship, unconventional absolutely, but totally extraordinary in the love they share for and with each other.
In this last book, the spotlight falls on Kyle, dependable, strong, sexy, gorgeous! But when a totally unexpected situation comes to light, that shocks and scares all of them, Kyle freaks out. He starts doubting himself. He is scared, confused and worried about their future. Of course, this totally upsets Addison, how could she help Kyle who makes everything OK for her all of the time. He keeps her grounded, he is the rock she depends on and loves him as much she loves Talon. She needs both of them, they are as important to her as the air that she breathes.
We see Talon take on a different role. He is usually the carefree, fun guy who brings out Addison’s wild side, but with Kyle suffering through his inner conflicts, Talon rises to the occasion, and takes care of Addison and tries to give Kyle the help he needs. His love for them knows no bounds; he is tied to them for life.
The sex scene in all three books are about as OMG as when Anna saw the Red Room for the first time!! They are raw, emotional, dirty, delicious, and filled with love and beauty. The love and lust they have for each other is palpable.
This book wraps up many loose ends; we see a stronger bond between the three of them because of a couple of surprises that happen during the course of the story. I loved the ending, it was everything I hoped it would be.

I'm not even sure where to begin with this review. This book was fan-fucking-tastic. If I could think of unique adjectives to describe how good it was, I would, but I'm thinking I don't need to because you guys get the point. Even right now, I'm still trying to find the words to describe how incredible, heartwarming, and heartbreaking this book was.
In this last installment of the 69 Bottles series, we follow the relationship between Addison, Kyle, and Talon and watch as they handle life's challenges. I can't tell you how many times my heart broke while reading it. Ms Derrick certainly doesn't take it easy on the characters - or the readers for that matter. She lets you feel every nuance of their pain, their happiness, their doubts, their fears and whatever the hell else the characters felt. Some parts of the book I saw coming, and some parts, not even from a mile away. As with Craving Talon, there was overreaction galore by you-know-who, but I just rolled with it. It was what it was.
There were lots of things I loved about this book, but my favorite was that it deals with forgiveness and second chances. It also (subtly) deals with how easily we can place people on pedestals and make it hard for them to simply be human and make mistakes. No one person is perfect, as is evidenced by my "overreactor" :), and allowances (within reason) should be made for that because, if we don't, well...we'll be sorely disappointed.
I won't lie, I was both happy and sad when I reached the end. Happy, because in the end, all of the pain and heartache and sacrifices that Addison, Kyle, and Talon went through was worth it. Sad because it meant that their story was over. So yeah...total bummer :(
But anyways, bottom line, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. And even though it was tears galore for me (and I hate crying), I found that I didn't mind it one bit.
Sheila...thank you for making me read this series. Ms Derrick, thank you for writing such an engaging book.
Now...let's see if Amazon posts this review *fingers crossed*

NOTE: Claiming Addision and Craving Talon MUST be read before starting this book!!!
Redeeming Kyle picks up exactly where Craving Talon left off as Addison makes a unsettling discovery. Although she, Kyle and Talon are starting to find their footing in their unconventional relationship, things have been happening very fast with little time to absorb it before something new comes along. Celebrity has found Addison unexpectedly after her duet with Talon thrusts her into the spotlight and the darker side of fame found her as well as a result. Now they must contend with some major news and it just may be the thing that breaks them apart.
The final book of the series centers primarily around this new event and focuses on how each member of the threesome deals with the conflicting emotions it generates. Will Kyle fall back into his old bad habits? Will Talon be able process the emotions he is feeling without freaking out on them? And who will be the rock for Addison when she cannot be the strong, steady one for the guys? As they work through it, they continue to connect in the best way they know how, and the heat level does not drop off at all from the prior stories so be prepared with ice, fans, batteries, your significant other, etc. – you get the idea!!
Dex and Peacock get some air time in this story as well as the other members of the 69 Bottles family have life events of their own to deal with. Dex, the perpetual manwhore, may have just met his match in one of the newest additions to the tour staff, and Peacock struggles with how to tell his bandmates and friends a secret he has been harboring for years.
I thought this was a wonderful finale to the series and loved the wrap-up the author provided with the epilogue chapters. Everyone from the band members to the security staff to Cami, Tristan and their friends are mentioned in the updates which I thought was perfect. If you love a great story featuring rock stars and are OK with non traditional relationships, then you must read the 69 Bottles series!

Zoey has done it again to me with this book! Last time I believe I said just rip my panties off......... just forget putting them on this time, honestly. Kyle has been making sure that Addison has enough to eat, drink, essentially taking care of her during this pregnancy. He is afraid to admit that he is scared. He uses the safe word so that he doesn't have to talk about it.....and then Talon said that if he walked out that door to plan on not coming back ...despite knowing that he won't be able to function without him..... because he LOVES him........but Talon won't be the only one to function......Addison won't either...........Kyle makes some choices and while he is away, things happen. Messages are left that he ignores. He makes a decision............. a decision that could cost him everything..............he has a decision to make and in the midst of making that decision......he listens to the multiple messages and finds out that one of the people he loves was taken to the hospital..in an ambulance............. it starts to sink in ............what he he has done.......and.....does he reach out for help? Are they able to repair their relationship?

With a series that keeps you on the edge of your seat, you wonder if the author can hold your interest through three books. Well you don’t have to wonder with this series. Redeeming Kyle picks up where Craving Talon left off. Addison, Talon and Kyle are a working threesome, the love each person has for the other is unwavering. When life takes an unexpected turn, you have to wonder who will run first. Addison is not believing what is happening and doesn't know if she should be happy or sad. While Talon is scare, it is Kyle that is scared the most, and he will do the unthinkable. Can Addison hold it together for all three? Will Talon be able to talk Kyle into changing his mind? Can Kyle accept the future or will he turn to drugs? This story is full of passion, love, lust and heartache. You will be yelling, holy hell this series is HOT and SEXY! It is a fantastic series with M/F/M, M/M, M/F and M/M/F, so sit back and enjoy the ride with 69 Bottles and Zoey Derrick. I can’t wait for Dex’s story coming soon.

The final installment of Addison, Kyle & Talon is seen in Redeeming Kyle.
These three have been on a wild journey in such a short period of time.
All three have battled their own demons, whether it was addiction, the ability to love or having solid confidence.
Each character brought their strengths to the relationship and made each other grow and thrive. Along with strengths there is also weakness and each one guided the other through.
We see Addison go through her pregnancy with a double dose (hint hint). Each guy carries her in their own way. While Kyle is the center; Talon is their orbit and naturally Addison is their Galaxy.
I was so glad to read this series and see a different twist to a "unconventional" relationship that makes us not even question that it's "unconventional"
And of course we see some hot, steamy and squirmy scenes that make you want to role play!
I look forward to see what else Ms. Derrick has up her writing sleeve for us.

A series so worth the read.
What can I say...WOW!!!! I lo ed all three books in this group. The love the devotion the sadness and the joy. Thank you so much for making this last book a full story with picking up where the others left off and giving an ending that leaves me wanting more yet completes the story without it being a loose end but yet leaves me wanting to be able to read more. I have heard these characters are going to make appearance in future books and I can't wait. This author has quickly made it to my favorite author list. The ability she shows in painting question picture that has your imagination seeing the story so clearly. Definitely worth the time to read oh and the lack of sleep.

I was so glad to read this book and see how things wrapped up. I love to see how things play out the way that they should. This is one of those series that keeps getting better and better and you never wanna put the book down because you get so caught up in their lives that you feel like you know them personally. Redeeming Kyle was the final story for Talon, Kyle and Addison and although this was the final story for these three it's not the final in the series. I can't wait to see what will happen next in this series

I received an ARC of Redeeming Kyle and was over the moon!
Zoey Derrick has sent me spinning with the final instalment of the story of Talon, Kyle and Addison. No spoilers - it was heartbreaking & heartwarming, sexy as sin and sad as well. It candidly addresses the many emotional issues that this trio faces in order to seek their HEA!
I feel like someone has taken away my best friends but I'm hoping that Zoey Derrick will follow through with books about the other band members. I can see a whole lot more posibilities for this wonderful cast of characters.

This was my favorite is the series. I really loved the realism of some of their relationship struggles. I loved that Addison insisted on communicating and not letting things fester. In this book, we really see the three come together into a more stable place, even with the drastic change in circumstances. The ending seemed a little rushed since the first two books and 80%of this one covered about 10 weeks. The last 20% of this book covered nearly two years. But I'm not really complaining because I felt like it tied everything up very neatly.

This was an amazing end to this series. Addison being pregnant and how hard and rough it is on all three of them. Especially Kyle. He is so strong and is there for Addison and it finally gets to him and he breaks down and just loses it. He leaves, (I cried at this point) when he leaves Addison is miserable. I could so see myself doing exactly what she does. Kyle is the guy I absolutely love. He is a beautifully amazing character. So I loved that this book was so centered around him.
I cant wait to see more from Zoey, she is an amazing writer.

69 Bottles- Redeeming Kyle- Review
This is one HOT book! I mean smokin’ hot!
Zoey Derrick heated up the pages with this final installment of 69 Bottles. I think she loved driving her readers nuts with all the m/f/m, m/m/f and m/m steamy sexy scenes in this book!
I will admit I am a sucker for some hot m/m scenes. But what I loved most about this story was that the lead characters all pushed each other towards one on one time with each other. There was never any jealousy from Kyle, Talon, or Addison if two of them had a moment together. It was all about the bond all three of them shared together.
That close-knit bond was carried throughout the story. It didn’t matter if it was a hot steamy scene or a scene with them hanging out and relaxing. They all leaned on each other and supported each other no matter what.
There is only one reason I gave this story a 4 instead of a 5. For me this story moved slowly when it came to progression the first ⅔ of the book. We just moved a couple of weeks instead of a steadier time progression. I did absolutely love that when Zoey moved us forward she wrapped the conclusion up nicely. She did not leave us hanging or wondering what was going to happen. I loved the ending!
Okay, I just reread the synopsis, it does not mention anything about what this story is about and I do not want to spoil this for the readers. So, I am going to keep the rest of my review light.
The lead heroine Addison Beltrand is one strong cookie. She knows her relationship with Kyle and Talon is anything but conventional. She could care less what anyone else thought of her and her boys. As long as her boys are happy, she is happy. I absolutely loved that Talon and Kyle were her priority. She never flaunted her relationship in front of other but she also never hid it either.
This trio balanced each other nicely. Kyle is the calm laid back one who is constantly taking care of the other two. He researches things and wants to know everything about a subject. While Talon is the rocker who loves to party when he can. And Addison and Kyle know how he is. They also know that if they asked him not to he would. He is their bad boy. While Addison is a mix of both. She loved a good party but also loved staying in.
This book was about Kyle Black and his reaction to what happened. Kyle hated himself for acting the way he did. He walked away. But in that moment he needed a break. He realized was the moment he left it was a mistake and regretted every second of it.
Kyle’s love for Addison and Talon was really sweet to watch. When he realized that accept him for who he is flaws and all, it was huge for him. I turned a little mushy! Shhh.
Talon Carver is one hot rocker who loves is man and is woman. Talon treated Addison like a princess and always wanted her taken care of. He is a bad boy in the public’s eyes. But behind closed doors he was a sweet lover and the glue that held the trio together in my eyes. When everything went down Talon stepped up. He admitted he was in over his head and he messed up a couple of times but the man kept trying for Addison. All he cared about was how she felt.
I loved the ending of this story so much. All three characters grew up and matured. We were able to sneak a peak of them in the future and how much things stayed the same yet had changed.
One of my favorite lines in the book.
This is one HOT book! I mean smokin’ hot!
Zoey Derrick heated up the pages with this final installment of 69 Bottles. I think she loved driving her readers nuts with all the m/f/m, m/m/f and m/m steamy sexy scenes in this book!
I will admit I am a sucker for some hot m/m scenes. But what I loved most about this story was that the lead characters all pushed each other towards one on one time with each other. There was never any jealousy from Kyle, Talon, or Addison if two of them had a moment together. It was all about the bond all three of them shared together.
That close-knit bond was carried throughout the story. It didn’t matter if it was a hot steamy scene or a scene with them hanging out and relaxing. They all leaned on each other and supported each other no matter what.
There is only one reason I gave this story a 4 instead of a 5. For me this story moved slowly when it came to progression the first ⅔ of the book. We just moved a couple of weeks instead of a steadier time progression. I did absolutely love that when Zoey moved us forward she wrapped the conclusion up nicely. She did not leave us hanging or wondering what was going to happen. I loved the ending!
Okay, I just reread the synopsis, it does not mention anything about what this story is about and I do not want to spoil this for the readers. So, I am going to keep the rest of my review light.
The lead heroine Addison Beltrand is one strong cookie. She knows her relationship with Kyle and Talon is anything but conventional. She could care less what anyone else thought of her and her boys. As long as her boys are happy, she is happy. I absolutely loved that Talon and Kyle were her priority. She never flaunted her relationship in front of other but she also never hid it either.
This trio balanced each other nicely. Kyle is the calm laid back one who is constantly taking care of the other two. He researches things and wants to know everything about a subject. While Talon is the rocker who loves to party when he can. And Addison and Kyle know how he is. They also know that if they asked him not to he would. He is their bad boy. While Addison is a mix of both. She loved a good party but also loved staying in.

Redeeming Kyle is the 3rd installment in the 69 Bottles trilogy and a whirlwind of a wrap-up to these characters I’ve really grown to love. It’s made me a fan of rocker romance, which I can honestly say had been a subgenre I’d avoided before. You MUST read the first two in the series to have an understanding of the complexities of this threesome relationship. Addison, Kyle, and Talon have been put through a wringer of emotions in a short period of time, finally coming to terms with their mutual attraction. Kyle and Talon share a sexual chemistry apart from Addison that’s has been a lot of fun to experience over the last two books. Now they face their biggest challenge together, both physically and emotionally. Talon seems to rise to the occasion, but Kyle’s past has left emotional scars that make love and the possibility of loss almost too much to bear.
It’s sooooo hard to do this review without major spoilers! Suffice it to say that we still get lots of red hot threesome action between these Addison, Kyle, and Talon, and the unique combinations never fail to disappoint. Kyle and Talon get together on their own as well, so if you like MM centered sex, you’ll also be panting for more. They have NO boundaries when it comes to loving and you get to see each character take charge for a bit. This last installment is much more character focused, and the outside action is kept to a minimum. We’re in the heads of all three, with changing points of view which makes the conflict interesting. It helps to be inside Kyle’s head for a bit, as without this, you might be more pissed off at him than you already are! Talon surprised me by being the reliable and unwavering partner, always focused and in this for the long haul. This is definitely a feel good trilogy and the angst is more short-lived in order to get you to that coveted HEA. This is the end of the series, after all, and a LOT needed to be tied up. Thankfully, we get a good peak into the future for these three, which is a treat. There’s loads of room for novellas and spin offs from what I can tell, but I don’t know yet what Zoey Derrick has up her sleeve! I’ll be reading it as soon as it comes out ;)

This is the 3rd book in the 69 Bottles series and let me just say that this series was sensational. So much holy hotness between this trio that will leave you with your mouth watering. If you are into this type of read, then this series is definitely for you.
This last book in the series has some unpleasant twists and turns. Just when Addison and the boys find it to be a comfortable time in this period of their life, some things start to unwind pretty quickly with hardly any time to consume everything that is happening with them. While Addison is starting to enjoy her celebrity status, some things start to happen that will leave them to grapple with reports that will either make them or break them.
The experience between Addison and the boys was one freaking hot, sexual and steamy relationship that I think it has been one of the best I've read between a trio. The sex was just out of this world HOT. It was so hot that it was making me squirm in my pants as I was reading the hot scenes in the book and let me just say....there were quite a lot of those scenes!
So many questions that will definitely make you want to read this series. Kyle has had some issues in his life and it's just a wonder if he's going to fall back into that dark side of his life or will he be strong enough to move forward and not fall back into his old habits. Talon has been freaking out way too much in this book and it makes me wonder, will he be able to overcome those fears or not? Can Addison hold this trio up or will she be too weak and/or tired of trying to hold them together and just let go? Although they have some major issues to overcome, they seem to keep fighting and continue being strong for each other.
I totally loved how some of the other characters got a chance to express themselves in this book as well. We find out other things from some of the other band members and it's refreshing to read about them as well, to get a feel about how they are feeling in this storyline and/or what is going on with their lives as well.
Zoey Derrick did a fantastic job with this whole series and I have to say that this has been one of my favorites this year when it comes to menage. I couldn't ask for a better ending to this beautiful love story between three people who love each other unconditionally and were able to overcome their issues to continue being one happy family.
If you love reading menage, this is definitely the series for you!
4.5 stars for this magnificent book and I can't wait to see what Ms. Derrick has in store for us next!

69 Bottles Redeeming Kyle is the third and final book in the series and Zoey Derrick did not disappoint and even managed to turn up the smoking hot factor a knotch if that is even possible. I highly recommend this entire series to any reader looking for a steamy read that will sure to make your panties wet but not for the faint of heart because when this threesome gets together there is enough heat to burn down a building or make your clothes spontaneously combust!!! This book was a 4 star read for me and I suggest that you stop what you are doing and one-click these books immediately!
Once again the reader is faced with the unorthodox relationship between 69 Bottles lead singer Talon, their sexy manager Kyle and the love of Bon their lives and PR person Addison but in an entirely new way, one that I honestly never expected from this couple but totally devoured in one sitting and I guarantee that you will too!!
When the unexpected happens and Addison finds out that she is expecting, she worries that Talon will have the most difficult time accepting the change in their relationship, especially knowing his past and his childhood issues. But big Talon and Kyle shock her to he very core when they express how excited they are, no matter how early in their relationship or unplanned the pregnancy is and vow to be there with her every step of the way.
As the tour begins winding down and Addison begins to change as she becomes more pregnant, the Dynamo. Of their relationship begins to change as well, with Kyle who has always been the level headed one freaking out with his impending fatherhood determined that knowing which of the. Is actually the father is not something either of them yearns to know, they become shocked to the core during one of Addison's doctor visits which results in Kyle walking away from both the man and woman that he loves. Talon tries to take his place and be what Addison needs but he is coming up short because what Addison really needs aside from him is something g that he is unable to provide for her despite all of his money and fame, and that is having Kyle ha k in their relationship and their bed.
As Kyle struggles with demons that he long since buried when he became sober years ago, Addison struggles to deal with the breakdown of their threesome dynamic which does a number on her health, ultimately landing her in the hospital. Will Kyle come to his senses and be the man that Addison knows he is and that both her and Talon need or will he walk away for good? You will have to read this steamy conclusion to find out!
