A nurse next door. Two billionaire best friends. One explosive attraction. She's about to create her perfect mate...from the best of both bad boys. A full-length, standalone romance with an HEA ending and Zero Cliffhanger
Ethan I'm a pompous, entitled, prick who happens to be a billionaire. I keep women at a safe distance. Except for the ones my best friend, Zack, and I hook up with. Yeah, we like to share one woman at a time. Zack's father dies, and as he closes out his father's affairs, Mindy shows up and upsets the balance. Mindy is not like any woman I've ever met before. I can't trust woman to begin with, and am even more suspicious of one who wants nothing from me. Until I begin to need more of her.
Mindy I haven't seen my old next door neigbor, Zack, in over seven years. His dad dies, and he shows up to tie up loose ends. Except he's now a billionaire. His proposal of a no-strings-attached hookup with him and his best friend, Ethan, is right up my alley. Until I do what all single women looking for love do at one point in their lives...I fall hard. Twice.
Zack Mindy is the one who got away. I see her near my late father's house as I'm taking care of his affairs, and I'm hooked again. Except now, I'm different. My best friend, Ethan, and I like to share one woman. Mindy likes the idea of a casual thing with both of us. Until I decide it's no longer enough.
Author's Note: This is a MFM ménage romance that is all about the woman. There are no M/M scenes. This story is all about TWO hot, bad boy biillionaires who fall for the same woman.
I was looking for a hot quick manage to fill a gap but got a weird push-pull, finding yourself story that occasionally had sex scenes involving three people. I thought the plot held promise and it could have been great but it just wasn't done well. There was stupid editing mistakes that pissed me off.
One of the biggest problems was the lack of character description, I mean come on people you need to be able to make a visual of the characters to get the full experience even if it's just a smutty read. The hero's gave contradictory statements about the h throughout the book like saying she had large lush curves but at another point saying she was so small. The 'Billionaire' thing didn't come into play really either.
This book is solidly written but could have been a lot better. I didn't like that the first sentence started in the middle of the threesome having sex - there was no emotional investment on my part or character development so the scene felt boring as a result. The fact that both Mindy's and Ethan's commitment phobia is never explained in any real way also lessened the strength of the plot to me; it ended up feeling like her mugging and hospitalization was an easier work around than having a few characters actually work through some real issues. And that her biggest worry is that they'll think she's a gold digger and then zero time or energy is spent on that made the real estate spent on discussing her worry as time wasted by the reader.
This was just an okay book or me. I was looking forward to this story line as it sounded interesting but from the very first page I was a little thrown off. There is NO character build up page one and I was reading about their encounters. I did not learn much about the characters or why they were together until later in the book and by then I felt like so little too late. I felt like I was jumped into a story that had already progressed from another book and I was lost. I had no feelings for the characters or their relationship. The writing was good and the details were there but the way the story was laid out it just felt off and turned me off as a reader. The concept was good and the authors writing ability is there it was just the story that I did not like. The characters (had they been in a different story) were great and I enjoyed their interactions. This was a “hook-up” book, not really a romance story. The characters had no romantic feelings for each other so I did not have any for them. There were a few sexy scenes with brief rather bland interactions and then it was over. I will read from this author in the future if any of the books catch my interest, however; I will actively wait for this author’s next book. I received an ARC and am leaving a voluntary review.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
This was a great story! This book was well written with a blisteringly hot look into the private lives of those in a ménage. This is the first time I read a book by this author, Jay Wilder, but I assure you, it will not be the last. I loved the three characters of Zack, Mindy, and Ethan. Zack returns home after his father dies to take care of his business. Mindy and Zack grew up together, and he always had feelings for Mindy. Zack and his best friend, Ethan, had one thing in common—always shared women—now Ethan wants to share Mindy. Will Mindy decide to have a casual affair with both Zack and Ethan? Will Zack want more from Mindy or will Ethan want more from Mindy? The scenes are well written, fast-paced and flow smoothly from one scene to the next. There is something so good about reading a good book, and this book was awesome! The book will pique your interest and draw you in from the beginning to the very end.
This is actually a pretty decent palate cleanser if you just finished reading some thing more serious. It was short, sweet and easy going. I love an MFM romance, because they're usually a lot of fun, and this definitely was. I was also happy to read about a character from the Bronx- my hometown! But I had some issues- mostly with the location of the hospital where Mindy works, and the kind of ER cases taken there. I felt like a simple google search would have cleared up a few points: like how its Lincoln hospital that accepts trauma patients, not Bronx Lebanon, and how there are at least 3 other hospitals that would have made more sense for Ethan to end up at after his traffic altercation, before even reaching the part of the Bronx where BX-Lebanon sits. In fact, Lincoln hospital is one of them. It's a small thing, but as a native New Yorker this blip in the matrix drove me crazy the whole time I was reading. Other than that, I enjoyed this book because who doesn't love 2 hot rich dudes totally obsessing over and loving just a regular smegular girl from the hood. 7/10 definitely recommend threesomes with rich guys lol.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Ethan is only looking for one night stands with his best friend Zack and a girl. He doesn't want anything to do with commitment. Zack has a history with Mindy from years ago when they were younger and she walked away from him when he says he wants more from their relationship. Now Zack is rich like Ethan and Mindy is a nurse in the Bronx. They start out as just having sex but it starts to mean more to all of them but no one says anything until months later when the guys finally decide to say something. Mindy runs away from them when she realizes that she is in love with them and is scared and the guys tell her that they want more from her. Will the guys be able to convince her they are serious and that they really do love her? Will she admit to herself and them that she loves them too?
A super sexy M/F/M romance, definitely not a book for those of you who don’t like to read about a more adventurous out of the normal sexual lifestyle. Read only if you like this genre, and know that it’s super cheesy, but that said it is an enjoyable easy read. A complete feel good story following two friends, Ethan and Zach, who like to share one woman. The woman they currently have their eye on is Mindy, an ex fling of Zach, and his all time love (Mindy however is unaware of that small fact). Zach is desperate to reconnect with Mindy and he’ll do everything in his power to make that happen. Ethan however, is commitment phobe, and Mindy is not looking for anything more than one night, so it was interesting seeing these three twenty somethings negotiating their feelings. An entertaining read that allowed me to just switch off and relax for a couple of hours.
Because the rest of the title doesn't fit. Dark? Nah. Bad boy? Other than a tendency to fight, not really. Romance or smut? Let's peek into the first few pages:
"Her lashes flutter again in that way that says she’s about to hit the peak of pleasure. It’s been years since we’ve been naked together and I still remember each detail about her body, still remember the signs she gives off showing what she likes and doesn’t like."
Smut. That was a tamer portion, but yeah, significantly heavier on the smut, the romance feels more of an expected HEA afterthought. It's an average MFM novel, no swords crossing, manly men explaining that they're certainly not attracted to each other, but threesomes? Yes, please, and often.
This book was amazing! I loved it! Mindy an ER nurse sees Zack a love from her past and it brings up old feelings and doubts. Zack still wants her but now he shares his women with his best friend Ethan. They hook up, agree to keep it casual. Casual doesn't work for any of them. Mindy doesn't want to appear as a gold digger and Ethan is a commitment phone. Will they be able to get past their fears? This book is hot they are explosive together. Ménage at its best!

✔Plot was good. ✔Characters were okay, not my faves. •Mindy is fabulous! Strong, independent, and full of life. •Zack realizes what he wants and goes for it. He open and honest. •Ethan is very insecure but when he almost lost everything he changes for the better. ✔Oh so hot, smoking! ✔HEA
Wow, Mindy, Ethan and Zack, what a love triangle. Mindy knew Zack from childhood. There always was something between them. Then she meets Ethan and a spark is there as there is for Zack. What does she do? Well they proposition her and she has sex with the two of them. Secretly she likes it but will not as it it. All three go through lots of different emotions. It’s a need to read story!
2.5 stars Quick and semi Entertaining read. The focus is definitely on sexy time versus character development or story line. Mindy, Zach, and Ethan are all likeable, but there isn't a lot of depth to them. It really feels like a story that had potential, but just wasn't developed enough to reach it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah bad boy billionaires. These two alphas are stern gruff and smart as whips but they have a softer romantic side that comes out with the right woman. Mindy isn't sure she's cut out for love but over the months she is with two incredible men, she finds out that she can and both of them too.
I have never read this Author before now but I will be now. I got sucked into this book and could not put it down. The love and fear of commitment was so real in this book from both Mindy and Ethan. Zack has always been ready for a relationship with Mindy. Smoking hot sex scenes and a terrific ending.
Love certainly comes in all shapes, sizes, and variations. That holds true with Two Billionaires Next Door by Jay S. Wilder. A friends with benefits relationship from the past comes back to evolve almost a decade later and with another in tow.
This was a crazy good story about a girl confused about going for a out the box relationship with two men without looking like a gold digger. How does one express their feelings for someone after walking away from them years ago. Really good read.
I rounded up. Triple POV. Lots of heat and a little humor. The only thing I would have changed was actually getting to read their initial encounter and the events immediately preceding the beginning of the book.
arc review For honest review this is a story of Zack ,Ethan and Mindy who find that fate brings zack and Mindy back together after 7yrs and since Ethan and Zack never do anything with out each other . This is a mind relationship. Awesome story hot.
Zack bumps into his old gf Mindy and wants her back only he now shares women with his best friend Ethan who doesn't believe in commitment. After spending time together intimately and emotionally things start to change and feelings become deep.
This was a great book. It always leaves me breathless when I read a book like this. One that's full of mystery, and love! One that's intriguing, sexy, and romantic! I would definitely recommend this book to read!
Well the sex is good for sure in this steamy little tale. I think the characters lack substance. Not regretting reading it just thought it could have been better.
