Room Four: Playing with the Big Boys

Rate this book
I know how to play with the big boys--- I've been doing it all my life.

When you have two older brothers, you fight for your rightful place in the line of succession.

But boys will be boys. Just when I think I’ve saved my father’s company, my brothers leave me to fight alone.

I'm forced to turn to a former enemy---the Valerian brothers, Vlad, Ilya, and Maxim, corporate titans with more money than God.

With layoffs on the line, I'm not above using my feminine wiles to save the day. Except these boys play a different kind of game.

I think I’m falling for one, but they come as a package. Three men? What will I do with three men?

Sensing I’m titillated by their offer, they take me to Club Sin, a place to bare our souls and explore our deepest desires. It's scandalous and sublime but I convince myself it can’t last. But it does. There’s no way around it.

Soon, I can't separate lust from love, and the only boys I want to play with are the ones who own my heart and always let me win.


Fantasies are meant to come true and the men of Club Sin will see to your every kinky desire. This November, 22 of your favorite steamy romance authors take you inside Club Sin, a forbidden place where you’ll find love and pleasure with multiple hot men in these Reverse Harem novellas.

About the author

Matilda Martel

240 books300 followers
Matilda is a Texas girl in love with a Philly boy who loves to write dirty books about two people who trip into love and fumble their way into a Filthy, Funny, Happily Ever After.

I live in Austin, with my husband, two crazy Chihuahuas and an even crazier cat. And I spend most of my day writing dirty romance books about older men who fall in love with younger women and make fools of themselves trying to win their hearts.

If you love Dark Romance, you’ve come to the wrong place. I don’t like dark heroes.

I like my hero to be successful, sweet, suave, sophisticated and kind--- and then I want him to lose all his composure and game when he meets the heroine. I want him to turn into a bumbling idiot when he spots the girl of his dreams and revert to a teenage boy in a man’s body trying to win her.

I like my heroines to be witty, intelligent, and unshakeable---who could do just as well without a man—until the hero convinces her otherwise.

I write A LOT OF AGE GAP--because I LOVE AGE GAP ROMANCE. I’ve got no other excuse for it.

No matter what kind of story it is, my ladies are ADORED, and my endings are always Happily EVER AFTER, not HFN.

When our h fell down on a rabbit hole full of debt because of her late father (and her brothers left the sinking boat altogether), she turned to one person that might save her. Well, it wasn't one, it was 3 siblings, 3 hot AF brothers. She was once interned for the eldest as a pretence for her father. She was a corporate spy, but she didn't know about it. When she did, she turned the table and told our H about her dad's plan. Now, when she needed help the most, not only did the eldest brothers come for rescue; all 3 of them. Plus, the chemistry between the 4 of them was explosive. Who says mixing business and pleasure were all wrong?! Well, shame on them because it was H.O.T and me likey.
description

This book was definitely a smoking hot menage with decadent details of debauchery. Unfortunately, there was only a glimpse of the history between the MCs. It's way too focused on the claiming and how the brothers tried to convince our h that this menage would work just fine; and what an effort that was. I certainly wouldn't mind with all those hotness swirling from the beginning till the end.

No virgin
MMFM, no MM
3 billionaire brothers and an independent sweet heiress
No drama, just a bit of push and pull between MCs
Dual PoV, 1st person
No cheating
Safe read, HEA, epilogue
Overall score: 4 steamy menage stars

The Valerians!

Sweet and dirty reverse harem! My only issue is the story gets a little bogged down in logistics of the relationship and less about the plot line. But it was well written and a good read!

This book is a part of the Club Sin series and focuses on Jana, Vlad, Ilya, and Max. Jana met the 3 brothers a few years before the start of the book during an internship at their company but nothing happened until a few months before the start of the book. The twins, Ilya and Max but especially Ilya, fell hard and fast for Jana but they bid their time until all 3 knew she was the one for them (which honestly didn't take long at all). They wanted to share a life with her and not have it be a one time thing. They all loved her so fiercely and it was so great to see! Jana initially struggles with wrapping her head around being with all 3 brothers but thankfully she comes around pretty quickly. Y'all, honestly. Pick. Up. This. Book! It was so so SO good! This was my second book where it was 3 brothers and a woman and it was seriously hit out of the park for me! You won't regret picking this juicy book up.

A business deal with a lot of hidden pleasure

Room Four: Playing with the Big Boys by Matilda Martel is the fourth book in the multi-author CLUB SIN series. This series has an interesting premise in that Club Sin is a very upper-class, exclusive and understated sex club in NYC which has different rooms for patrons to rent that can cater to different tastes. This story is is about Jana Penrose, the twenty-three year old who is running the family owned Penrose Media company. She and her two older brothers have inherited the majority of the shares and also the debt and problems their father left behind when he died suddenly a few months ago. When her brothers go behind her back trying to cut a deal to a disreputable investor Jana is determined to get a better deal to save the employees their jobs. That means having to use all her assets and get a meeting with the infamous and very rich Valerian brothers, Vladimir, Ilya and Maxim. Jana had interned for a summer with the Valerian's and had not only learned a lot but never got to really know the brothers. But she did make an impression on Vlad when at the end of her internship she let him know that her father was planning on double crossing him in a business dealing and that he had wanted her to spy for him, but she would not do it. Then last year she made an impression on Ilya and Maxim one night when she ended up getting between these two on the dance floor of a club, and what a dirty impression it was. What Jana is not aware of is that the Valerian's have a particular taste, they want to share the same wife, and they all believe she is the woman for them. Jana may be willing to shake her butt like Jessica Rabbit to save her company and employees but will she be willing to love three men at the same time? One visit to Room Four in Club Sin and she gets a very good idea of just how it might be to be loved and catered to by the three Valerian's.

Matilda has delivered a great story. If you are already a fan of her writing, and I will admit I am, then you are expecting quirky, OTT, insta-lust/love that is way overpowering, possessive and protective alpha men who are older, beautiful, intelligent and feisty younger women and a lot of blazing hot sexual attraction and passionate overload. This story has all of this and more as there are three men, each with a slightly different intensity and obsession and a young woman who is fighting what she really wants but is not quite ready to admit. I liked each of the characters and the story-line, which also introduces Jana's best friends Macy and Willow, who both get their own books next. I really loved this book.

Good but could have been better - read on KU

I enjoyed this book in this series. To date, I have read books 1-4 and 9. I skipped 5 and 8 because the reviews stated they had little to nothing to do with the club. I still say the club served no real purpose here. The first time it does, is book 9. In books 1 to 4, it really is just a hotel room. They did nothing at the club that required anything they didn't have at home. The only thing the club helped with in any of these 4 books was it was a neutral ground, which they could have found at a hotel. They could have gotten the most expensive suite and still saved money.

I did like Vlad and his twin brothers. I liked our h, too. What I did and didn't like was they end up in bed without any build up. If I'm reading erotica, any outside story is just filler but it is nice when that filler isn't crap. While the writing here was fine, the business end made absolutely no sense. Books 1 to 3 did a much better job of making their relationship make sense outside of sex. Here, it really doesn't. Ilya has been in love with her for years but somehow she seems closest to Vlad, who she had never had any connection with. She also has a daddy thing going with him, which is not my thing, but it is only a few words. That is the only kink outside of the menage a quatre.

As I said, erotica doesn't need to spend a lot of time outside of the bedroom but to consider a book erotica, I really has expectations for something dirtier than this. Book 9 finally gets closer to that. I hope the books continue to head that way, as the higher number rooms are supposed to be more dungeon and less hotel.

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. This fast paced romance is part of the multi author Club Sin series. So far I have enjoyed the short, high heat stories. Jana and her brothers have found themselves with a sinking company. They have to decide to swim on their own or sink trying to salvage something for their employees. Her brothers took their life vests and swam fast and far away. Her best option was a man that she had admired for a while and his brothers. Vlad makes her feel all sorts of things. He can now feel that pull to her also. Ilya and Maxim make demands as part of the deal that will keep her from avoidance or running again. These men plan to play their cards right and stake their claim. Club Sin plays a big part in that because they want to bond her to them every way they can. Jana finds herself right where she wants to be. She finds out that she made a business deal to last a lifetime.

Toxic father
Daddy play

Jana Penrose (23, mfc)
Jared (brother of mfc)
Joshua (brother of mfc)
Vlad Valerian (mmc)
Ilya Valerian (twin mmc)
Maxim Valerian (twin mmc)


Jana and her brothers own Penrose Media, or they did. Her brothers just announced they are selling their stock before word can get out that the company is in financial trouble. They want to do a quick sale to Carnegie, who Jana knows will screw them. She wants them to sell to the Valerians. Vlad hated her father, but Jana interned for him in the past. She has hope he will help, even if she has to play up her *assets*. The twins already made known they want her, but she ghosted them. All 3 men want her. Will they save her company in order to have her? Will she let her friend talk her out of it?

It felt a bit disjointed, as if it were skipping around. 3.5 stars It started off well, but once they went to work, things felt rushed.

If Matilda Martel writes it, I will read it. So when she announced she’d be doing a reverse harem romance, I was all over it. Room Four is part of a multi author collaboration - Club Sin and is not meant for the faint of heart! This book is Hot with a capital H!!!

The Valerian brothers Vlad, Ilya and Maxim are uber successful in business and are looking for one more conquest, Jana, the woman of their dreams. Jana is young but has a head for business and when she needs help she reaches out to the Valerians. Not ones to look a gift horse in the mouth, they make it their mission to win her over. And win her over they did, again and again and again.

Whether it was the sexy as sin cover or the hot contents within, this book had me clutching my pearls on multiple occasions and made for a dirty, read in one sitting romance read. I’m giving it the judy.ann.loves.books stamp of approval, TBR and Enjoy!

★ “Dear Lord, I've fallen faster than Lucifer.” Deliciously demanding and convincing. ★

—>>> When it is up to Jana Penrose has one last opportunity to save her father’s legacy, Penrose Media, and that is to go begging at her previous employer’s door, the Valerian brothers, Vlad and the twins Maxim and Ilya for financial help. Having not set eyes on her for four years, these men know exactly what they want as soon as she approaches them to ensure her company’s employees will remain protected either by being maintained or offered decent severance packages. Sensing her attraction to them all, it was not hard to convince her that she also has a place in their company as well as in their beds and hearts, because she was the woman they have been waiting for all their lives… to share. It’s up to her to trust her own heart, because they were certainly deliciously demanding and convincing. Looking forward to reading her best friend Macy’s story as well!

One of the most interesting room Stories yet

I think this story is pretty good but , I think the club sin series needs a bit of a different spin on each story... I like this one much better than several of the previous ones because its mostly unique from the other 3 stories... Unfortunately it has a bit less plot... Its like each of the stories is a mini sex show... Ok this story is a about a heiress who's parent leaves his company in debt she turns to a rich trio of brothers to help her save the employees of her business their jobs... They want her as their wife... I don't get why her two brothers are even in the first part as they never come up again... This one is all business, and Club sin play... It does have a few confusing timeline or maybe situation changes that make it a bit confusing, but its an interesting intro polygamous story.

Room Four was a super quick read but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Though I wish there were more scenes with her brothers after everything sorted itself out. I'd loved to have seen their reactions to everything.

I loved the epilogue so much! It was so cute what Ilya did for Jana and I seriously melted. It was such a touching, meaningful thing for him to do for her and he really endeared himself to me with it.

This was an easy read and I really liked how witty Jana was and her banter with the boys. I did not, however, care much for her friends. I didn't think they were real supportive and they came across as rather judgmental to me. They didn't seem overly necessary to the story either so I could've done without them.

Oh my I was not prepared for this story. Jana, Ilya, Maxim and yummy Vlad was insanely intense! Center of the sun temps have nothing on Room Four. I thought I knew what I was getting into when I dove into Room Four but I was not expecting the deep emotional connection these brothers have with Jana. Jana is a little hesitant but when she decides to go for it, she doesn't second guess herself. I loved that about her, she made no apologies for her attraction to all three men. I didn't want their story to end, I would have been in heaven if we had a dozen more chapters of their love story. All the stars for Room Four!

Wow! Three hot brothers and they all want Jana. I am so glad Jana decided to take a chance. Who would not want three hot guys fawning over you and making all your dreams come true. Jana had a very controlling father that left his company in shambles and she turns to the Valerian brothers for help, and help they did. I loved this book it was short and full of action. It was entertaining and I had to see what Jana would do. Great story.

This has been my favorite of the series so far. It was fun and low stress...

There wasn't and forced drama added for "plot device" sake. It was fun and low stress, the couples issues didn't make it and angsty story, but rather just felt like natural relationship growing points. I liked that it was fun and hot without being boring meaning it wasn't like everything was perfect from page one. But any issues never overshadowed the fun tone that held throughout its overall storyline.

Room Four Play

Loved this. Matilda is such a great writer. This is her first reverse harem and she nailed it - multiple times 😉 Jana is a feisty, capable heroine who secretly wants to be loved and cherished for who she really is and who better to fulfil that desire than Vlad, Ilya, and Maxim - three super hot specimens of manhood with just one thing on their minds - making Jana theirs - for life.

To save her deceased fathers company and the jobs of all his employees, Jana must turn to an old employer for financial support. Vlad is 10 years her senior and has 2 brothers who have never hidden the fact that they want to be more than friends. Jana decides to let the boys in to her heart and explore her kink and needs. A visit to Club Sin sees them enjoying all Room Four has to offer. Matilda has a very special way of writing that has the reader mesmerised.

A media company left in chaos and massive debt after Jana's father dies. She is struggling to keep it alive and then her brothers sell their shares and desert the sinking ship. Jana has no choice but to ask for help from three brothers she knows. Very rich and hot brothers. She has had the hots for them for ages and what she doesn't know is that they feel the same. Lots and lots of hotness in this story and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Very rushed, lacking in needed detail, contrary info, lots of tell instead of show, jumpy storytelling, no emotional build-up, no relationship-building and flat smut.

And seriously she doesn't even want the company but is giving up millions of dollars to save 150 jobs? That doesn't make her good person, it makes her an idiot.

Very disappointing after this author's wonderful 'Room Nine: For Their Eyes Only' book in the same series.

Do not recommend.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I like the strong characters in this story. To save her employees, Jana goes to the Valerian brothers. They help her with her company but are more interested in her personally. Vlad, Ilya and Maxim take her to Club Sin and she lets loose. Jana never regrets it as she falls for her three men and they for her.

Jana has a problem with the family company... she needs help from her former enemies three hot and hard-headed brothers. But make no mistake she is no weakling... she knows how to work the men to gain her goals. But what started as lust quickly turns into more. A steamy hot story, with romance and a sweet HEA 😍😍😍😍

Fun, flirty, funny

This story is short and sexy, low angst, and written in a way that I believed they loved each other naturally. It didn't feel forced. No cheating, no cliffhanger, standalone (but her friends get their books too), happy ending. It comes with some daddy kink (not ageplay), foursomes, and role play.

It was okay. It was a lot of spice, and not a whole lot of background of building up to anything. It was also a lot of ‘can’t love more than one person, and of one of them loves me why would he share me with his brothers’ type of stuff. Which got a bit repetitive. Other than that it was an okay story, and the spicy stuff was spicy.

I enjoyed this one. At times it felt a little disjointed, and I felt it skipped over a lot of things, but it told a story, a good story. I am hopeful for an extended epilogue sometime in the future.

This was a good reverse harem romance. It was really steamy and taboo. I really liked it but I wished it had a bit more of a storyline besides the romance. But aside from that it was a good story.

okay

This book started out well. Then it just started jumping around from place to place. I loved the male main characters but really did not care for one of the secondaries. It had promise but failed in the end for me
