When Ellie was in school she was ahead of the rest of her own age group by a couple of years. Declan and Iain needed help with their math, and recruited Ellie to tutor them. After parting ways, it's years before they see each other again, and the guys don't recognize Ellie.
The last thing Ellie expected when she boarded a train was to have two hot men seated next to her. More unexpected was to have those hot men be none other than the her heroes from school. She had a big crush on them then, and that's only intensified now that they've grown.
The dynamic between the trio was amazing. They guys have shared women before, but it's different with Ellie. She's someone they wouldn't mind keeping forever. This was a sweet, sexy story. It was a bit different than other m/f/m and bdsm books. I did enjoy how the families were so accepting of their love, rather than trying to shame them or change them. There was just enough drama mixed in to keep things on edge, one twist you couldn't see coming.
While this was my first book by this author, it was worth the read. I loved the story line and the connection between all the characters. Iain and Declan were sweet and patient while Ellie learned the lifestyle. Ellie was super smart, well educated and wasn't ashamed of the relationship they shared. This book pulled me in and I'm interested to see what else this author has in store.

When Ellie runs into the Declan and Iain again on a train Declan and Iain don't recognize her. It kind of hurts her so she doesn't say anything until she slips on Iain's childhood nickname. So when Declan and Iain finally figure it out they are so surprised but happy. So when they continue talking she finds out that they are into some interesting things.
Ellie is more than interested to find out what is going on with Declan and Iain. These three find a great relationship even after having a childhood friendship that didn't go as planned.
Good story. I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy for my honest review.

So hot! I loved Declan and Fraze! Ellie has loved them since they went to school together long ago. Now that she's all grown up they don't recognize her. When they realize who she is, Ellie is in for a surprise. Can she submit to two Doms, or is it more than she can handle?

I received a free copy of the book from the author.
If you read my reviews, you know I love a good BDSM story. This particular book is ok. It's not over the top scream to the world it's greatness kind of book. These three were friends, once upon a time back in high school. Then she assumed some things they boys assumed some things and apart they grew.
Fast forward about ten years and they happen to run across each other on the train. Ellie is headed to give a presentation on migraines, Declan and Iain are headed to a wedding. They spend time together. Hit it off and of course these two men enjoy a bit of a spanking and tying up. Ellie does too.
What I didn't like about the book was the way it was written. It seemed a bit "dumb down." There were several times I shook my head reading the story. It was more of a sexual fantasy than a fictional love story. At least that's how it read to me.
If you're looking for a story with a bit of English Royalty and some kinky sex this book is definitely one to add to your e-reader.

The past collides with the present in a dazzling story filled with pathos, heartbreak and the possibilities of truth and trust!
Eleanor Davidson, née Scott, is brilliant and successful. But it's never been easy. While she may've always been a genius, there are secrets buried in her past that she'd rather never see the light of day. A scholarship student to St. Hugh's, she thought her life was charmed when she became tutor, and best friend, to Iain Frazer-Lyons, future Duke of Erskine, and his best friend, Declan Stone. Then it all crumbled around her. She's never forgotten them. But Fraze and Dec are now famous, always in the spotlight, while Ellie's a researcher making important medical discoveries. But she's not in their league. Since their friendship imploded, they haven't seen each other once, have nothing in common left. All that changes as Ellie makes a fateful decision to take the train, rather than a plane, to Edinburgh. When Fraze and Dec turn up as her seatmates, it's far worse than she could have imagined. Not only do they not recognize her, they're even more charming and sexy than she remembers. Worse, Ellie's inadvertent slip, and Fraze and Declan's realization of exactly who she is, sends her crashing back to the day when she lost them. But does the universe have plans for these three? Fraze and Dec make no secret that the past means nothing, and the future holds infinite possibilities. As Ellie's eyes are opened to a world she never knew existed, she's enthralled. A true submissive, she takes to her two Doms in ways she could never have imagined. She soon finds herself falling for the two all over again. But is any of this truly feasible, the Duke of Erskine, a famous footballer, and a medical researcher? Then another secret, buried for decades, comes to light, threatening not just the relationship between Ellie and her Doms but the very fabric of the friendship between Fraze and Declan, their families, perhaps their very existence. None of this works without BOTH Fraze and Dec. Can Ellie even survive without them? As the threads holding Fraze and Declan together fray to the breaking point, will any of this endure? Or will the friendship of a lifetime, and the possibilities to which Declan and Fraze have introduced Ellie, explode in a blaze of anger, fear, and heartbreak? Can Dec and Fraze reach deep enough to remember the lessons they taught Ellie? Without honesty, faith, and most importantly, trust, everything is gone forever!
I love BDSM and ménage stories, and this book delivers on both fronts. Filled with the realism of both lifestyles, it's riveting in every aspect. I loved Fraze and Declan. These men are famous, constantly in the public eye, yet they're entirely genuine. They don't flaunt their sexuality or lifestyle choices, but they certainly aren't ashamed of who they are and what they need. Their openness and willingness to unquestioningly accept themselves for exactly who and what they are is captivating. I fell in love with both of them. Ellie's a delight. Shy, unsure, but brilliant, her initial shock and uncertainty about what Dec and Fraze propose is totally believable. That she embraces what they propose, learns and grows into needs she never knew existed despite her reservations, shows an open-mindedness that the world needs so much more of. There is nothing about these three that I didn't love. The conflicts between the three, both past and present, add elements of heartbreak that pull you, heart and soul, into this story. There were so many times when I was crying uncontrollably. I have to admit to a draw to this particular lifestyle on a very visceral level. I was hooked from the first page. I love Ashe Barker's books, regardless of genre. But this is my favorite so far. Congratulations, Ms. Barker! This book deserves far more than five stars. Thank you for a story that held me captive long after I finished it!
A final note. Be an informed reader! This is an ADULT book. It contains explicit language and BDSM sexual scenes. If you don't enjoy this genre, this may not be the book for you. There are book synopses and reviews available on Goodreads and Amazon. Use these resources. DON'T LEAVE A NEGATIVE REVIEW WHEN YOU KNOW YOU WON'T ENJOY THE BOOK. It's not fair to the author. She works hard to provide a quality work product. If you know you'll object to a book's subject matter before you buy it, you're doing yourself and the author an extreme disservice.

Ellie never expected to run into the two people that completely captivated her many years ago.
Declan and Fraze have always been close but they never expected the direction their live would take when they boarded the train.
This weekend turns out better than they expected, but can they make this relationship last long past this weekend? Or will this just be a just a fleeting fling?
Her Two Doms is a fun, sultry, entertaining read that pulls the read in right from the start until the endearing end.
I love how Ellie goes into this relationship with an open mind and open heart. Her curiosity is engaging and shine right off the pages. She's still shy in many ways, but with Declan and Fraze in her corner she really comes into her own.
I love how Declan and Fraze take things slow yet are very persistent in their pursuit of Ellie. They can turn on the charm one second and then turn up the passion in the next. I especially love how much family means to them and once Ellie is in the picture, she becomes part of their family.
The passion is intense and sultry. When Declan and Fraze bring out their Dom voices... hot dam! They really know how to take care of their woman in and out of the bedroom. They make submitting so much fun.
I really enjoyed Her Two Doms with an engaging storyline, irresistible heroes, and a beguiling heroine.
So yourself a favor and pick up Her Two Doms and let Declan and Fraze show just how much submitting can be.

Fraze and Declan are doubling Ellie's pleasure
I really enjoyed this book. It was a fast paced, quick easy read. A train trip to Edinburgh brings about an unexpected meeting between three people who knew each other in school. Ellie is a scientist and on her way to Edinburgh for a conference, Fraze and Declan, businessman and sportsman respectively, are heading to a wedding. Ellie recognises them instantly, but it's not until Ellie mistakenly slips that the two men finally see who she is. Fraze and Declan are Dominants and they seem to believe that Ellie might just be a submissive. An arrangement between the three of them may soon see their lives dramatically altering.
No spoilers here, but let's just say that Ellie is in for a very sexual education. I love all three of these characters, their interaction with each other, the banter between the two men was quite funny at times. The thing I loved the most was that Ellie was never expected to do anything that she did not understand or consent to.
Towards the end of the book there is a little bit of a twist, one that I wasn't expecting - but it makes perfect sense. The ending was simply beautiful. A great little read and a book I would recommend to those who enjoy a little BDSM and menage.

This is my first book by Ashe Barker, but I was intrigued by the blurb, I love a bit of menage / BDSM, so took a chance with this one.
Ellie is on a business trip on the train when two men come and sit at her table, they are none other than her childhood best friends, but they don't recognise her. Fraze and Declan only realise who they are sat with when she lets something slip in the conversation. A misunderstanding from her school days ended their friendship, which she has felt guilty with til this day, and the men offer to spank her so she can atone for what she believes was her fault. Ellie is a very intelligent businesswoman now, quite prim and proper, so the spanking conversation takes her quite by surprise, is that something she would be interested in??
Its a good quick read, nothing too shocking in there, to be honest I expected a bit more!! The storyline is good and the characters well built, but I didn't the love connection too much coming from these three. Obviously there are some hot sexy scenes in here between the three of them, also some of just MF, and a lot of spanking. I enjoyed this, its a fun read.

(3.5 stars)
When Elli hops on a train heading away on a business trip, she never imagined that she would be seated with her two friends from school. When neither recognizes her, Elli is a bit shattered but doesn't open up about knowing who they are. When Franz and Dec catch a slip in something Elli says, they catch on very quickly that they know her, or knew her as the case may be. When a spanking is mentioned as sort of a joke, Elli takes pause. Could she very well let them spank her? Would she like that? Can she let this opportunity pass without trying? After all the two are giving her a chance at a fantasy, all Elli has to do is agree.
So... this was ok. I have read my share of BDSM, as well as my share in triad and poly romances so nothing about this shocked me or had me confused. This actually has me a bit let down. I was really hoping for more than what I got in this story. I really didnt feel a chemistry between the three, the scenes where it was one on one were hotter than the scenes with all three. I give this 3.5 stars.

I received a copy of this book from the author/publisher to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
This is a quick read of three people who met at high school and were great friends until an event caused them to go their separate ways. Miranda is a business woman now and is on a train en route to a business trips when those two guys sit down next to her. Faze and Deacon were everything in school and Miranda had it bad for them. Now they don't remember her but it does not take long before they are getting reacquainted. Here is where I felt like this story, while good, flies. I feel like they reconnect and wham bam thank you ma'am they are naked. How about getting to know each other better again. Your all adults now and have seriously changed. This book just flies and I think I would have like to have spent more time with these characters and gotten to know them. If you are looking for a quick read this is it. Take it for what it is and run with it. If you looking for a story with substance and falling in love then you might want to just skip it.

Her Two Doms is an MFM romance full of second chances, forgiveness, and finding acceptance and love. Ellie is on a train going to be a keynote speaker at a work conference when she runs into two guys from her school. Always having a bit of a crush on them, she knows they are very successful now, but she can’t get over an incident from their past. Begging for forgiveness leads to an evening over their laps and eyes opened to the submissive lifestyle. But is a relationship beyond the weekend with her two Doms possible, or is Ellie in over her head?
I really enjoyed reading this book! Ellie was so curious and had such an interesting back story. I loved her influence on the guys and how her teenage hero worship turned into something very adult, complex, and full of respect and love. Fraze and Declan were loving, but stern, creative, supportive, and full of banter. While I didn’t think the drama in the second half of the book was necessary, I do like that it brought Ellie, Fraze, and Declan closer together. They definitely had some intense and steamy scenes, but they also had an interesting dynamic full of love and support

Eleanor Davidson aka Ellie Scott didn’t think too much about her trip until they stepped into her cabin on the train. Declan Stone & Iain Frazer-Lyons’ are two men she did not expect to see on my travel to Edinburgh. She knew them from 14yrs ago. A skinny 12yr old that followed them around like a lovesick puppy. Now it seems that don’t even recognize her. Well until she makes a small mistake. But the guilt of the past keeps gnawing at her. So the boys decide, perhaps a spanking will help. And BOY does it.
After that, things start to pick up. Ellie starts to feel things and learn things from Dec and Fraze. They take her to heights she has never been to. She becomes addicted to the pull of it all. But there a secrets that get revealed that could tear everything that they all worked for apart. I have to say the scenes that are described are really hot and steamy. These guys know how to bring a woman to her knees.

I'm always interested in a new Ashe Barker because I keep hoping she'll come up with something to equal her earlier interconnected trilogies set in Yorkshire, starting with The Dark Side. Nothing has quite come up to that standard, unfortunately.
The title rather says it all here. Ellie meets Declan and Fraze on a train to Edinburgh. She knew them when they were at school together, but they don't recognize her. As the journey north continues, the past all comes to light and Ellie feels guilty over an accusation of cheating when she was helping them with math. One of the men suggests a spanking to help her get over her guilt and everything goes from there. The relationship is remarkably free of problems, especially as it involves 3 people. The sex is great; Barker has a talent for writing good BDSM sex, but there isn't a lot more to the book than that. There is a minor conflict toward the end of the book, but nothing that can't be easily overcome.

This is a wonderful, gentle story with a believable introduction to the world of BDSM.
Ellie, Frasier, and Declan have a past...one that ended badly, or so Ellie thought, and she has never forgiven herself.
A chance meeting on a train leads to the men offering to spank Ellie if it will make her feel better about the past...they don't want her apologies, but she obviously needs to atone.
And so the games begin, games that Ellie finds she loves. Their relationship develops into love and all is going well until a secret from the past is revealed to Declan, made worse by the realisation he's the last to know.
How will this affect the trio? Will they be able to have a HEA, unusual as their situation is?
I love Ashe Barker's writing and this story is no exception.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Very hot school mates
Loved this story. I kinda wanted a sequel you know where the condom and other procautions fail... And they are forced to sort out what happens next as the Duke very well has an heir even though they don't know who's it is... But back to this story. I Loved the details of the train journey, the hotels, and their homes, it was a perfect amount of setting without being to much. I kinda would have liked a bit more intermingling of their friends once they got back to London... Surely they had some friends the three of them? Even if they didn't know about their sexual relationships. There was a mention of them going to clubs perhaps they might visit one with their collared submissive in a sequel... I really like this and I certainly will look for more Ashe Barker books

When Ellie runs into the Declan and Iain on the train to Edinburgh Waverly they don’t recognize her. She was friends with them both and had the biggest crush on them in school, but after an incident that she felt responsible for she didn’t see them again until now.
I really enjoyed Ellie’s intro into the BDSM world and how she atoned for her guilt. While I wish that the book was longer, I think this is a must read for anyone that loves Erotica, BDSM or Dark Romance.
I was captivated by the major characters and I feel the secondary characters added depth to the storyline. This is a good first look into a mild BDSM relationship for anyone that is curious and wants to learn more.

I freaking loved this book! First off its menage, so already a point in its corner, but then the characters are British which earns them another point in my opinion ;) But then the story is sweet and sexy and funny. One train ride turns into a meeting with the two guys from high school who she had a huge crush on. One thing leads to another and she learns these guys like to share, and they had a crush on her all those years ago. I love that she comes out of her shell and thinks she's going to experience one hot night of passion with two men she's fantasized about for years, but it turns into so much more.
Great story!

I greatly enjoyed reading this story, possibly because I have Scottish family - my father was a Scott and we love all things Scottish. When I started reading the story I was not aware of it being set in Scotland. I found it kept my interest all the way through and I was anticipating parts and outcomes before they happened. I was quite disappointed when the story ended. What a web of mystery Ashe set in the preamble set on the long train journey at the beginning! Once the story took off it became truly interesting. I am now seeking more of Ashe Barker's sexy books on Kindle unlimited. for me it is one of the best books I have read on Kindle. Thank you, Ashe.

Enjoyable read
I enjoyed this book, but I just felt there was something missing, but I just can not put my finger on it. It’s a very easy read, but I just didn’t feel it took me anywhere. I like to loose myself within the book and the characters, yet I struggled here. Love that was a school crush rekindled, with a very intelligent woman, who at times I felt was very shy and immature,. I just didn’t feel that Ellie actually got enough credit for her intellect and independence. She seems to just fall straight into her relationship, yet she seemed to have a bright, intelligent career.

I was going through Ms. Barker's catalog and found her 'Her Two Doms' and started reading it and then realized it was the second book in her "Elite Doms" series. After reading this one, although there was no doubt, I'll be binging this series. Read the blurb and you'll have the perfect synopsis of this storyline. It's absolutely thrilling. All the feelings and emotions are vividly described, the initial friendship between Ellie, Declan, and Fraze was felt and then the day they met on the train by chance just set off all the anticipation and butterflies. And the first scene they shared? Sweet Bejeebers, it almost melted my Kindle. What a wonderful read and I can't wait for the next book.

A great quick read. This is the first book I have read by this author. A really great story. Fraze and Declan are best friends. They meet Miranda on a train and realize that they know her from school when they were all younger. Very hot sex scenes and romance. You will fall in love with Fraze and Declan. I liked Miranda but there was a couple places that I felt she was really naive. The twist really blew my mind. I love the ending! I recommend this book. I received an advanced reader copy for an honest review.

This was my first read by Ashe Barker and I really enjoyed it. The story had a good balance of sass, steamy bits and back story. A second chance romance, MFM menage with light BDSM.
This is the story of Ellie, Declan and Fraze. They were in school together as teenagers, 14 years later they are passengers in the same train carriage, heading for Scotland. The men don't recognise the women sitting with them initially but once they do they are keen to get reaquainted but in adult terms.

A quick and steamy read. I’ve read this author before and her books are really good. Ellie takes a trip on the train to a conference when she bumps into two of her former classmates. She is heartbroken because they do not recognize her from school and they had some good times together. So to protect yourself she acts like she doesn’t recognize them. That all changes when she refers to one of the men by a nickname that no one else would know and to make matters worse she lies about it. Two men don’t take that lying down and she is in for fantasy that she has only dreamed about. Can she submit to two Doms and have them fulfill her every sexual fantasy?

When Ellie was in school she had a huge crush on her 2 best friends, Declan and Fraze. Now that they’re grown up and on a train together she recognizes them but they don’t recognize her and it hurts her feelings. But when she lets something slip that has them wondering if they know her...well let’s just say she is in for a really big surprise. And boy is there a big surprise to come and a twist of events.

4.5 Stars - This is worth a repeat. I really liked the story about reconnecting with your past and how a single event leaves different impressions with the impacted parties. Ellie ends up on a train ride that changes EVERYTHING! There's a bomb dropped and a VERY happy ending. Actually, there are several! 😉
As for the narrator, she was fantastic. I was surprised to realize she's not British. Leesa did great with the accents.
Story: 4 Stars
Narrator: 5 stars

This review is for the audiobook:
Phew! (fans face)
This one is capital H O T hot! Hearing Lessa Lamb bring to life Declan, Fraze and Ellie’s story just about melted my headphones! They are absolutely swoon-worthy, they treasure Ellie beyond reason, and their scenes are just so spicy! Fantastic yet subtle accents make distinguishing between the different characters both do-able sand enjoyable. I would highly recommend!

Surprisingly this was I better story than I expected. There was a lot of background to explain how the three got together and a good energy/chemistry between them. Not sure about inviting family to a collaring ceremony, but what do I know??? Not a bad read and the sex scenes were good. Definitely did her job in describing two dominant males. I give it a 3.5 stars.
