When you’re caught in the impact zone, the only choice is surrender.

Wild Crush, Book 5

After a monster wave almost kills him, Dylan realizes it was a mistake to put his pro-surfing career ahead of the girl he left behind. Now that he’s finally able to give Hope everything she ever wanted, he’s stunned to discover she’s moved on—with his best friend.

For years Matt has loved Hope but kept his feelings to himself until Dylan went off chasing the pipeline. Matt welcomed the chance to stake his claim. Now that Dylan is back with his heart in his hand, Matt is reluctant to step aside.

When Dylan abandoned their five-year relationship, Hope tried to keep her impulsive, friends-with-benefits fling with Matt casual, but her heart was having none of it. Seeing Dylan alive and whole sends her complicated feelings for both men tumbling into one big, gnarly tangle.

Each man—one steady, one wild—fulfills a different, soul-deep need. They could make it work…if she can convince them to all ride the wave of desire together.

Warning: Features hot MF and MFM sex, bondage, and rough talk with two devastatingly gorgeous Aussie men. Could inspire a need to hang ten. Or eleven, if you catch the drift.

This is a story of Hope, Dylan and Matt. Three friends, two relationship, one love!

This book really took me by surprise! There were so many emotions that the sex part was simply not important! Ms. Lee succeeded to take a story that can be considered taboo and made it a beautiful love story! The writing of Ms. Lee is direct and honest and I couldn't have enough! Although Unbreakable Hope is part of a series, it can be read as stand-alone!

Hope is a bit confused heroine! She doesn't really dare in life in order to avoid to fail! She has feelings for Matt and for Dylan! What I loved about her was her growth during this story!

Matt is the sweet hero in this story! Although he knows what goes on in the heart of Hope, he doesn't give up! I really like his honesty and his actions!

Dylan is the bad boy in this story! I like him too! He made mistakes but he realised them and now he tries to correct them! I really liked his persistence and clarity in his actions!

The interactions among the heroes are fantastic! There is tension, pain, love and amazing steam!

The end of the book was really nice and sweet! I definitely recommend this book to everyone who loves a good erotic romance!

Dylan Wakefield left Hope Irving at one of the scariest moments in their life. Handling a scare that should have, and could have, been the happiest moments in their lives, Dylan changed and was gone shortly after. Devastating Hope, she began getting more serious with Matt Kendrick, Dylan's basic opposite. Hope loved the way Matt didn't have to get rough, and discipline her in the bedroom, to help fulfill desires. Even though she enjoyed and LOVED sex with Dylan, Matt was outstanding in his own way. So why did Hope feel like if she could make the two run into each other, and become one guy, life would be perfect?

With a sister that already had two boyfriends, it seemed like life would be perfect for Hope if she were able to have Matt AND Dylan. With best friends that are the polar opposite, and both in love with Hope, you know from the beginning that the wave that they try to ride together, as three, is going to be ferocious. But reading about it is all the fun!

This is one of my first menage books. I worry about the whole cheating aspect and how one, the other, or all three in this case, would feel. But Sami Lee, a new to me author, marvelously intertwines these three characters to where you feel like their relationship isn't complete without all three pieces of the puzzle fitting together. This is the fifth book in this series and I would LOVE to read the first four. I didn't feel lost at all, but I feel like some more background on some of the minor characters (Hope's sisters) would make me love them even more! Sami Lee has quickly became a TBR author at the top of my pile with this amazing read!

Sami Lee is a dirty girl!!..

I was dragged through the ringer with Dyl, Hope, and Matt. Sami Lee brought her A game with this final book in the WILD HOPE Series. Every page was dripping with one emotion or another. This was truly a happy ending to an amazing series.

"She smiled at Dylan and he returned the gesture. They'd always had a way of reading each other's minds that had annoyed her on occasion. Today it came in handy."

4 hopeful stars!!! Surprisingly emotional!

This book is a difficult and complicated web of feelings and emotions, but it's so well put together!! Dylan was a pro-surfer and almost died trying to chase that dream and he also gave up his relationship with Hope. But now he's ready to come back home and reclaim his woman. The problem?? She's moved on to his best friend Matt. And Matt's not ready to give up Hope and Hope's feelings are conflicted when she sees Dylan again.... can these three make their relationship work??

I was pleasantly surprised with this book, it was so much more than I thought it was going to be! It's emotional, romantic and sexy! I had a hard time putting this down, simply because I needed to know what was going to happen next! I loved the relationship between the three characters and the story line was unique. Definitely worth the one click!

Another great read from Sami Lee!!!

Bad News: Sadly, this is the last book (that I know of) in the Wild Crush series.
Great news: It is a fantastic read!! Hot MF & MFM once the boys get a clue!

Loved love love how Sami wraps up all the lose ends even as Hope and her 2 guys tried to make quite a mess of things.

Unbreakable Hope is a great m/f/m ménage romance set in the surfers paradise of Australia. This is book five in the Wild Crush series, but it works fine as a standalone. It takes you on a wild ride but delivers a satisfying happy ending. All three main characters are complex and well rounded, and I fell in love with all of them. I know absolutely nothing about surfing, but I enjoyed hearing a bit about it in this book, it made an interesting backdrop for the story. There is plenty of hot, steamy sex in this book, but it's well balanced with emotion, love and plot. There's some great light BDSM and some sexy role play too, which spiced up the story nicely.

Hope and Dylan were together for five years before he left her to continue his surfing career, but after a near death experience Dylan realises how much Hope means to him. But when he returns to their home town he's shocked to discover that Hope is involved in a relationship with his best friend Matt. Hope has tried to keep her relationship with Matt as a casual friends with benefits arrangement, but Matt has secretly loved her for years and wants more. Hope soon finds herself caught between the friends, and she wants them both.

Matt and Dylan are complete opposites in nearly every way, but something they both have in common is their love for Hope. I have no idea how she put up with Dylan and his commitment phobia for so long though! The guys' friendship is strong and I enjoyed their interactions and their banter, together they were perfect for Hope. I really enjoyed this book and I may go back and read the earlier book in the series. Five stars.

Unbreakable Hope takes us back to Leyton's Headland and the story of the third Irving sister. Hope hates her name but she loves her two best friends; she's been lovers with one, Dylan, who is a champion surfer and afraid of commitment. Hope tells him she thinks she is pregnant and Dylan tells her he isn't ready for kids and takes off to chase the perfect wave. Hope is left behind and leans on her other best friend, Matt, who is business partners with Dylan in Wakerider, the leading innovator of surfing gear. Three months after Dylan left Hope, she and Matt become lovers and 3 months later Dylan takes a killer wave at Teahupo'o and Hope's world is turned upside down. Come back to Leyton's Headland to the home of the Irving sisters, surfers and love.

Dylan gives Hope the rougher side of lovin' but 5 years later they couldn't make it work. Matt gives Hope the softer, romantic side but their relationship was new. Put them all together and it didn't look like they would mesh but stranger things have happened.

This story is mainly about self discovery and those who help you along the way. It's about those who know you better than you know yourself. It's about those who love exactly who you are.

Great story! I can't wait to read more from this "new to me" author.

Hope and Dylan were together for several years and things were light and easy with no strings until a scare changed all that. Dylan ran and left Hope broken. She turns to Matt for companionship and some sizzle to boot and gets more than she bargained for when she discovers there is so much more to their relationship. I loved Matt. He was head over heels for Hope and wanting nothing more than to love her happy. Then Dylan has a surf accident which brings him back to Hope wanting her in his life again. Things get complicated and scorching hot between these three and I so loved their story.

I give Unbreakable Hope 5 hearts!

I had previously read one of Sami Lee's books in a box set I had purchased. Since then, I had wanted to read more of them, and when I heard about Unbreakable Hope, I said sign me up. I enjoyed the story - it had all the tension of a good romance and Hope had to determine which of the men was going to be her forever.

This was a fun read - I loved Dylan's surfing. It seemed extremely fun, and it was neat how his surfing fit seamlessly into Matt and Hope's lives as well.

I breezed through this one. The story was light enough that I could just keep reading, but it had the serious undertone with the relationship underneath.
