Can you get a second chance -- with three men at once? We're all grown up, and we're finally in one place again. Rex, Shaun and Taylor. My three best friends from high school. Gorgeous, successful, sexy as hell. They all came back into my life when I needed them most. I can't believe I'm having these fantasies about all of them. About having all of them at once. Then one warm night, everything explodes. They're willing to indulge my fantasies... And give me a happy-ever-after. Together. Warning: This is a sweet-hot reverse harem romance with three hot alpha males who will do anything to protect their woman. It will make you sigh -- and a few other things we can't print.
Mia Moon is a writer of steamy contemporary romance and erotica. She adores chocolate, coffee and designer shoes. She lives in a sunny climate with a menagerie of pets.
ALL FOR ONE was a sweet yet extra sexy second chance romance. I very much enjoyed listening to this short novella. Even though this was a shortie Mia Moon was able pack the story with hot and sexy scenes as well as a plot that was easy to believe. I especially liked the nod to mental health that was included in the story.
The narrator was pretty good. Lacy Laurel gave a performance that helped me to easily sink into the story. She has a great narrative pace. I just would have liked her performance more if she had done more to differentiate the characters. Each of the characters spoke in the same rhythm and two of the three studs in this story also sounded like each other. On the other hand she did have two male voices and one female in her repertoire so that was good.
You know editor was unavailable when one character is alternately Sean, Shawn, and Shaun.
It’s an RH so naturally it’s not high lit but take some pride in the work, right?
“Just don’t be alarmed by all the tubes. It’s worse than it looks.”
What?
The story itself is pretty good. The sex is just okay. There isn’t a difference between the guys, two of whom are also into each other. The potential was flattened by the verb tense changing throughout. One example:
“Rex was clenching his jaw so tight that I can see the muscles in his face bunch up. Shaun’s hands were balled into fists and he inhales long.”
Could have been a lot better because I liked the heroine. Of the four childhood friends, she was the most rounded out.
2.5 Stars I liked this book. The pacing didn’t drag and I was never bored. It was a quick and easy read that passed the time. I liked the childhood friends to lovers element and felt like that part of the story was done well.
The reason this book did not get a higher rating from me was because I felt the pacing was a little too fast. I never had time to adjust to the scenes or bond with the characters because they would change before I got the chance to. I had a detachment to the story and none of it grabbed me like I wanted it to.
I also feel like none of the characters except for Samantha were developed enough. None of the guys were special in any way and didn’t have distinctive personalities either. They were all cookie cutter versions of popular male tropes and I didn’t connect with them at all.
Overall, this book just wasn’t for me. I feel like there should have been more scenes that developed the characters as well as their relationship. Everything was rushed and there was no build up what so ever. I needed more than I got.
This is the first time I have experienced a Mia Moon story, but it will not be the last. This was such a fabulously touching and scorching hot story! I loved every second of it, and it put a huge smile on my face. I savored the depth of this short story that took my heart my storm. This book showcases the wonder and talent of Mia Moon without a doubt. What a fantastic author!
Lacy Laurel has once again proven just how wonderful she is at bringing a story to life. Her amazing talent never fails to captivate and astound me! Her auditory prowess is definitely growing by leaps and bounds. What an astounding surprise that i enjoyed and cherished. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for such a powerful performance!!

This steamy novella is part friends to lovers, part second chance, and a build up to a reverse harem. While short, I liked that there was actually a story, rather than just quick and dirty sex. If you're looking for a quick, steamy read/listen then All for One is a good choice.
I received this audiobook for free from Audiobook Obsession. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Lately, reverse harems have been my thing! I was in a bit of a reading funk, and this story was clutch! The characters were fantastic. All three guys were sweet with Samantha, especially during high school. I appreciated how much consent meant to the guys. Their relationship started as a friendship and became a healthy relationship, and I was here for all of it! Each guy was excellent in their way, and I want them! The narration was absolute perfection. Lacy Laurel can do no wrong for me! "All for One" is a quick read and a good time!
I did enjoy this read. It was a cute story of best friends finding their way back to each other only with lots of steam. The story line was great, but I felt like I was reading it in fast forward. At times, I had to back and read the last page because it seemed like I skipped some pages. Nope, there was just bouncing right to the next thing. I would have loved this book if it gave a little more to it. All in all, though, it was a good one time read for me.
All For One by Mia Moon is a second chance reverse harem romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Lacy Laurel.
This is the first book of Mia’s that I have listened to and it definitely won’t be my last. I knew the book was a novella but it still left me wanting more of their steamy romance.
Lacy did an amazing job on the narration. She really knows how to bring a story to life.
I like what the book did, in a way, there was some suspense but also a LOT of lovin - literally I think it was 90% naughty and 10% excitement - like I said, I get what they were trying to do but it was not done at all right for me - who would have thought so much lovin would be a turn off. I did enjoy the excitement parts though and the ex thread of the book, but alas, SO MUCH LOVIN
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. This was not what I was expecting. The story was interesting and very steamy. The narrator was really good. I'm new to reverse harems so I didn't know what to expect. I wanted to know the characters more. I'm going to read the next one!
The storyline was really good but, some of the pages are missing. Some of them were at pivotal times. That is why only three stars.. even the preview story was missing pages...
Krótkie opowiadanie, krótka historia, szybka akcja. Jedne dziewczyna i trojka przyjaciół że szkoly średniej która spotyka się po latach i spełnia swoje fantazje. Nie ma żadnego głównego wątku nie licząc ich związku i scen seksu. Ale spełnia swoją rolę.
I love RH romance, so when this box set came up on my feed I was interested. A real fantasy with best friends from high school meeting up again. Short, sweet & hot as f***
I just popped my Reverse Harem cherry! First time I have ever read an RH book and I did enjoy it. Very steamy and even some suspense. Great read...grab some extra panties before reading this one!
This was a quick and entertaining reverse harem romance. It was a mix of second chance and friends to lovers in which 4 people who met and became best friends in high school reunite years later and start a relationship. There was lots of steamy moments and a little action in this one. The main characters were likable and overall I enjoyed it.
Narrator Lacy Laurel was excellent and I really enjoyed her performance in this one.
