We're dead for touching her. But I don't want to stop.

Damon and I know first hand how cruel and unforgiving the world can be. We grew up relying on each other just to survive. Since then, we do everything together, from fighting to sharing women.

Until Bianca. Our honey bee.

We’ve been tasked with keeping her safe. Our job is simple: don’t let anyone touch her.

It should be easy, but she’s untouchable and we’ve both craved her for years.

Her lust-filled gazes and soft, kissable lips beg us to take her. She knows this is wrong. All three of us do.
But the forbidden is too tempting to refuse.

She brings out a different side of me I’ve never felt before. Jealousy.

I see it in her eyes that she wants us both.
Together we can overwhelm her with pleasure that she’s never imagined.
But I want those sweet moans all to myself.

I don’t want to share her. Not anymore.

WOW, DOUBLE WHAMMY OF ALPHA HOTNESS

I loved shared and because I just jumped into this read without reading any blurb my expectations where completely blown away .

Shared hit all the combinations I like.
1. An alpha male
2. Action
3. great plot
4. Mafia Romance
5. Hotness
6. HEA

I couldn't put this book down.

About the plot:
When the Russo family comes under threat Bianca's uncle wants her protected and hires Maddox and Damon to do the job. Trained in the Forces and good at what they do, they are brothers from another mother, with heartfelt backgrounds they do everything together including sharing women.

Both Maddox and Damon knew Bianca from their school years before they joined the forces. Bianca was the girl in school that was untouchable, a mafia princess, forbidden fruit being a Russo. Even then both boys wanted her.

Now she is in their care and under their protection.

Iv'e read other menages and this was so different, it isn't all about the relationship aspect, don't get me wrong there are some hot scenes but the plot and the action is what also had me turning the pages.

Told in each characters pov. This is my first read by this author and I am looking forward to more.

Honey bee. . .

She was a mafia princess. She was their honey bee. She was the one woman that could change the course of their lives forever. Bianca was their everything, anything. Maddox and Damon had one task. Very important task of keeping the princess/honey bee safe and untouced. The second part of that task turned out to be a bit more than either of them would have guessed. This was a read filled with emotional ties, past childhood issues, trust, conumption, attraction, danger.

These ladies put on a good show. Its not a bed of roses all the way through. There was much here to get you to turn the page and see what was coming next. I was not disappointed.

COVER i would give a million stars to i have cover love for this cover !

The book did not disappoint it is as hot as that cover, well wrote and full of everything i love in books romance, passion, fire and some downright Alpha Males now i want to be the filling in that sandwich.
Maddox and Damon are So HOT and you really could not have one without the other and i don't care because i am all for having both !

a bit about the book so when i loo back ...
Maddox and Damon are hired to protect Bianca and protect her they do hehe and they are sure to care for her every need, now these two men are nothing like each other it's more a good cop bad cop but the bad cop isnt so bad and they're not actually cops but you get my drift. anyhoo Her big and powerful uncle is having none of it and being a mafia boss and all, you can only imagine what happens ... well no because it went nothing like i thought it would, it was EVEN BETTER !

Would Maddox and Damon Be My Book Boyfriends ? He'll yes these two are my book husbands MINE #CLAIMED

[Louise H's Book Thoughts · Rating 2 out of 5]

I received an advanced review copy of this book and am voluntarily reviewing it.

Overall I enjoyed this book. The writing is good, has a pleasant style/feel to it and 'flows' well, it doesn't take effort to read and comprehend the words. (This may sound a strange comment but I have tried to read books where it takes effort to process the words written!)

The characters are a little cliched but despite that they are interesting, full and consistent. Best of all they are not annoying! Whilst we get some background to them, I got very little feel of their recent history. I liked that the book was written from all three POV's, although it felt a little forced at times as it cycled through them in a 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 style. I also felt it limited the story/action to some extent.

There was a chunk in the middle of the book where the characters were falling for each other but personally it just felt a little superficial. There also didn't seem to be a lot of story in this part of the book either. I think an ideal opportunity was missed to develop some angst and soul searching around the entire situation. A menage relationship is still taboo and added in the fact that Bianca is a 'mafia princess' there could have been a lot more angst. The book describes itself as a dark romance but it didn't quite get there in my opinion - it is still very good though!

Whilst we did have a few sex scenes I did prefer that this wasn't just a collection of smutty scenes. The scenes were very tasteful and felt natural, and generally the sex was implied. Personally, I would have liked some POV switches during these intimate scenes, as this draws me in and helps me connect with the characters more.

The story really picked up again in the last few chapters and had a really sweet epilogue. This sits somewhere between the 'throw away, trashy novel' and the 'leaves you with a book hangover novel'. If you are a fan of the authors then I am sure you will thoroughly enjoy this book.

Double the men, double the heat! Not to mention two alpha, strong, protective men. MMMMMMM So yeah Bianca needs protecting and there's all this mafia stuff goin on and these two are keeping her safe and warm....ya know?

Then all this craziness goes down and there's a lot of action! This is a little different than a lot of MFM I read, and I really enjoyed it. There was depth to the characters and their personalities really shined through in the story. Well done, this is a happy girl!
I received an arc, btw.

I loved reading about Damon Asher and Maddox Silver. Here were these best friends that were so much a like but yet so different. They were close like brothers, they were business partners and had been there for each other through thick and thin since they were kids. They shared everything including women. Now here they were to protect the one girl that they both had interest in since they were young. The one girl that could tear them apart and get them killed if they were not careful. This will be their greatest challenge yet.

Bianca Russo was know as the mafia princess. She found herself in danger and her Uncle Vit had hired these two guys to protect her. Now uncle Vit was one guy you did not want to mess with, if you wanted to live that is.

I love that Damon and Maddox had been on Bianca’s radar as long as she had been on theirs. She had heard all the rumors of how these two shared women and wanted in on that action herself. Who could not blame her. Now come on what woman has not had fantasies of being taken by two hot men.

I loved the fact that Bianca was strong and stubborn. Damon and Maddox knew they were playing with fire and would fight the temptation as long as they could. They knew to be with her would be a death sentence but oh how tempting. Bianca she wanted live in moment. She wanted theses two guys and she would not stop until she had them.

There is some danger along the way and things could get deadly. There will be some obstacles that Damon, Maddox, and Bianca must face. This was truly a great book and glad I got a chance to read it.

-ARC received in exchange for an honest review-

If I had to sum up this read in one word it would be; Hot!

Shared is a MFM menage, and begins with Bianca, a reluctant mafia princess, being shot at because of her family ties. This turn of events leads to her Uncle hiring two bodyguards to hide her away and protect her.

The guards happen to be two men she knows from her past, but has no connection with; Maddox Silver and Damon Asher. The attraction between Bianca and her guards is instant, and although Maddox and Damon usually share their women, they each find that they want Bianca for themselves.

I usually can't stand love triangles, but the way in which this story has been written, did not feel like the usual love triangle, as the heroine knew from the beginning that she wanted both of them, and there was never an instance of them making her choose between them.

The pacing of the story was great as there was more to Shared than just smut. The plot flowed seamlessly, and the dialogue and chemistry between all characters was great. There was a good balance between sexy scenes and the rest of the action/story.

This hot little story is wrapped up with a sweet epilogue that left me with happy feels. The authors did a great job with the book and I'm definitely going to check out more of their works.

I received this novel as an ARC from the author for an honest review. I enjoyed the trials and tribulations Maddox and Damon went through before the job from the Russo's. Their past legitimized their true character and bond. It wouldn't seem realistic although this is fiction that the Besties wouldn't fight over Bianca. Too many ménage romances were the men are so close and friendly they never have conflict in their relationship or friendship when it came to the woman. I loved how the characters felt more real because they doubted their bond, and almost turned on each other because of their personal emotional differences. That really let's the reader know that these types of relationships are not easy and simple. They're very complicated and stressful no matter how happy you feel together. Plus you throw in the potential of being killed because of your feelings in the mix,and know it's more than just double or triple trouble to take into thought. I still will never be in a three-way relationship ever, I don't trust other people enough to focus my attention and loyalty to more than one person in any moment. Plus I'm a selfish woman when it comes to my heart, I'll only want one feeling to cloud my judgment at once because I'm a control freak lol. This novel was very intriguing!

[Cindy · Rating 5 out of 5]

When the mob family The Russo's come under attack. Bianca's uncle decides to keep her safe by hiring Maddox and Damon to keep her safe. What happens when these two can't keep their hands off her? Or that she doesn't want them too? She wants to be shared. Bianca has heard that Maddox and Damon do EVERYTHING together. She wants to see for herself.

Bianca, Maddox and Damon all went to school together. But didn't run in the same circles. Bianca was the untouchable girl, the mafia princess. Her last name of Russo makes her FORBIDDEN!

Maddox and Damon grew up together. They both had awful childhoods. While Damon was passed between foster homes, and was physically abused at times. Maddox meanwhile was physically abused by his father most of his life. That is until the age of 16 when Maddox puts a stop to it, permanently.

The chemistry between these three is EXPLOSIVE!!! The sex scenes are HAWT!!! But what I LOVED about Shared is while it's a SEXY, HOT ménage, it has a fantastic story line that hooked me from the start. I only wish it had been longer! And the ending was FABULOUS!

[Courtney · Rating 5 out of 5]

These three authors did an amazing job with this menage story! Maddox and Damon have been together through thick and thin, surviving their childhoods and tragedies together and are used to sharing the pleasure of a female together. Bianca is the Mafia Princess and now in need of protecting, enter Maddox and Damon. The guys remember her being the untouchable one in school, she remembers them and the rumors she hears about them. When her life is in danger they will stop at nothing to protect her, but letting themselves be vulnerable to her takes a little more time for Maddox than it does for Damon. The two men compliment each other and even the extremes of the other that together they are the perfect combo for Bianca. For them she is the one they have been missing and will do what ever it takes to keep her by their sides. This is a fantastic read! I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

Wow, what a collaboration of great authors all together! This story has an intriguing and captivating plot, which has be hooked throughout. Maddox and Damon are ex forces, who are hired to protect mafia princess Bianca. They all knew of each other from school days, but Bianca was always off limits, due to her mafia family. Maddox and Damon are hot alpha males who do everything together, including women. All of these characters have demons to overcome in their pasts, and when they are together they are complete as well as amazing together, as they each give to the other things that are missing.
This storyline is full of mystery, action, angst, suspense, drama, and most of all romance. Awesome job Ladies; and I sincerely hope that you all collaborate together more!

Love Maddox and Damon. Once you start reading you will not want to stop. Maddox & Damon has always wanted Bianca but her being the Mafia Princess she has always been off limits, but when Bianca is in danger her Uncle hires Damon & Maddox to protect her. They never thought they would have the intense connection that they have and they will do anything to have her and to keep her safe. They know it's wrong, they know if her Uncle finds out they are dead but they can't stay away from Bianca. Really great story with amazing characters and even an amazing collaboration.

This book has romance, some action, a mafia storyline, and some MFM action. The characters all over the place as far as where they are emotionally. Maddox especially. The other two know what they want and are going for it. We know why he is the way he is so it makes it easier to deal with it when he's a jerk. Damon kind of wants to get Bianca for himself, Maddox wants to get Bianca for himself, and Bianca wants both of them. All while trying to keep themselves alive and safe from the mobsters trying to kill Bianca and her uncle who will kill them once he finds out what they've been up to!

She's ours...for real.

Maddox and Damon have had each other's backs for years. They've shared everything, including women. Bianca is in a no-win situation. When her family name almost gets killed, Maddox and Damon are brought in to keep her safe. I LOVE THIS BOOK!! The heat is through the roof. The characters are so real. The story keeps you reading till the very end! These three ladies rocked this one! Enjoy!!!

I've previously read work from each individual author and was happy to see the had collaborated on a book.. I'm not a huge fan of ménage but decided to give it a chance. I'm quite surprised at how much I enjoyed this story.. Maybe it was the suspense or maybe the action or it could just be that I liked the Mafia aspect of it. When it comes down to it it's a HOT good book! Give it a read, you just might enjoy it too..

[Louise · Rating 5 out of 5]

Maddox and Damon.... Woah. Maddox is seriously an intense guy with a past that keeps his heart locked. Damon past isn't much better either. When they a chance to live a dream they have always wanted, they get a little more than they thought they were getting. Bianca just wants to live a life of her own, just plain and simple. Life in familia isn't exactly easy. What she gets though is complicated and unexpected.
This story has heat, strong wits, and heart stopping action.

[C Joy · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book has 2 separate stories, but only the first one is menage. They have a common theme, which involves protecting the heroine, who is the forbidden fruit.

Both stories have really steamy to sizzling scenes that would require you to read right in front of an air-conditioning unit; or to borrow another's words, "set your kindle on fire".

Both stories have the same plot but I still appreciated the in-between.

[Lofty · Rating 4 out of 5]

4*
Maddox & Damon are best friends who have shared women before until Bianca she's different.
A job with the head of the mafia protecting a member of the family should be pretty straight forward until they find out who they are protecting!
