Merry Christmas too me!!!! I have been waiting to read this since she started dropping hints and little teasers. I was very lucky to have received an ARC and am so excited that I was lucky enough to read it.
Let me start off by saying I absolutely FLOVED this book!!! It is a typical KL book with the romance which include steamy scenes. Some mystery that includes some a$$hat with a God complex thinking he can stalk/kill the girl. AND the best part is we have 1 sassy as hell heroine that gives my sarcastic side a run for its money and 2 hunky over the top alpha men who need to protect what has become the most precious thing in there lives. Lets face it if you are anything like me you will love this book as well.
Arden Graham is a socialite whom people feel is spoiled and an entitled princess. What the average Joe doesn't know is she has a heart of gold and loves to help the elderly. She is an event planner at Rocky Shores Retirement home. She loves to plan day trips and themed lunches for them. She has no idea that there is someone out there who has it in for her.
Enter Boston Falco and Dare Waters they are friends of her older brothers ho they bring in to help protect Arden. They are both ex Navy SEALs and own their own private security business. Upon their arrival things start to escalate and spiral downhill. First off Arden doesn't really understand just how much danger she is in due to the fact everyone has kept the severity of it from her. As the situation escalates Boston and Dare take their job seriously and follow/move in with Arden. As it happens feelings begin to grow and love blossoms for the 3 of them.
The closer they get to figuring out just who is tormenting this beautiful young woman the Poet as he has become known as keeps everybody on their toes. He does not make it easy for any of them. When it is figured out who it is, it is all hands on deck as some faces from the past show up to help out. I liked how the story flowed and how it gets wrapped up in a tiny neat package.
The wittiness in this book did have me laughing out loud. Our girl is a nervous rambler and her sarcastic side comes out no matter how hard she tries to keep her mouth shut. The creative way the word duck was used throughout the book made me smile. I'm not gonna lie the word duck is not the word I read when I was reading it. LOL! Since this is a first in a new series I am looking forward to what is next.

Let me start by saying this is the first book I have read by this author but definitely not the last. I received this ARC when it was offered in a giveaway during the holidays and oh my goodness am I glad I won! This is one sexy and sassy and smart menage with a twist of suspense I had a hard time putting it down so I could sleep and work. Arden is the younger sister of twins who served as SEALS who are now retired but their family has always been wealthy. She has never been one for living off the family wealth and her passion is the retirement home she has been working at as an event coordinator. Although now she has acquired a stalker. Or does she have more than one? When the danger becomes too high her brothers bring in Dare and Boston who they served with and have a security business that specializes in stalking. After the first meeting, it is evident these three are meant for each other. Instalove has never been my thing but this was done just right and Arden was quickly unraveled by Dare and Boston and her sassiness kept them on their toes. This is full of twists and turns and so much love and fun along the way to keep it humming.
Definitely deserves a recommendation from me. I'm going to have to go back and see what else I can find in the backlist of this author...

Hot, Steamy, seductive, and suspenseful!
If you love strong women, alpha males, and steamy scenes, this book is for you.
The author had me hook, line, and sinker from the very first word. It’s a quick connection that you would happen sooner so you can get more sexy scenes. I felt a connection with Arden because she is a sassy, strong-willed woman. I was so happy she had someone to protect her, even though she didn’t think she needed the protection. I absolutely loved this book.

4.5 Stars
I enjoyed this story very much. This was a insta love ménage that was well done. I really liked all three main characters especially Dare and Boston. Both were just the right amount of alpha and sweet when it came it Arden. I also liked that they weren’t manwhores, the type of men are rare in romance today. The suspense aspect was well done and left me guessing till the end. Overall this was a very enjoyable read!

Before I start my review, I would like to say that I AM NOT a fan of ménage romance books. Even though I’m not a fan, I do read quite a bit of them. 95% of the authors who have attempted writing such a difficult role failed. With the romance aspect of the story, anyway. Writing a romantic role between three people is extremely difficult. It’s hard making sure every character is equal to the others.
KL Donn is the first author’s ménage books I’ve wanted seconds, thirds, fourths of. She writes them so beautifully. Not only do they have amazing storylines, but they have crazy obsessive alpha males and romance that everyone wishes they had.
Unraveling Love is absolutely no different. Out of all her ménage books, this is my favorite. I’m one of those women who love reading books where the heroine is in some danger, maybe even gets harmed, and the alpha male storms in to the rescue. Well, alpha men in this case.
Unraveling Love is an ‘on the edge of your seat’ page turner. It’s cute, it’s funny, it’s action packed, it’s romantic and so very very sexy.
If this is your first read of KL Donn’s I’m 100% positive it won’t be your last.
I don’t know how she does it but I’m so glad she does. I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

Unravelling Love by KL Donn a five-star read that will have you unravelling. This is the first novel in the Damaged Lover series and I for one can’t wait for the rest of the series, if they live up to this one then they can’t come quickly enough. What I loved most about this one surprisingly wasn’t the two hot alphas I would love to have protecting me, it was in fact Arden Graham that I fell most in love with. Arden was just so refreshing, at the start I was a little mmm typical socialite trying to do good, but then you see more about her and learn more about her and what she wants and is doing, and she will blow you away. Watching Arden unravel just showed me a great side to her, that smart little mouth of hers just made me want to smoosh it in the best way possible.

This just gets better and better!! I first read this book in 2018, and I freaking loved it. This author is an absolute gem, she is fucking amazing!!
This new improved version has amplified all of my original feelings and so my original review still stands times 10000000000!!
Go, one click this, fall in love with the #menagequeen and her characters.
Yes!!! #MenageQueen has hit it out of the park with this! I am not going to lie, whenever this author announces a release I do a happy dance! I love her dark, I love her light and I FLOVE her menage! She is undisputedly the Queen of menage!
Boston and Dare are employed to protect Arden but from what, she isn't 100% sure. Despite the danger to her, she isn't going down without a fight. The more time Boston and Dare spend with Arden, the more the pieces fit in to place. My heart! I cannot describe how the three of them made me feel!
I could not put this book down, the suspense killed me......and I did not see that coming!.....I was on the edge of my seat...but no kindle were harmed during the reading of this book!

Review by: Jennifer
(3.5 stars)
When Dare and Boston are called in to help Arden with her stalker issue, they didn't think that they would finally meet the one woman that was made for them. Arden has a bit of a problem and so far her family has been handling it, but the stalker issue is starting to get a bit out of control. When she meets the two new guys her brothers call in to help, she gets that spark of attraction. But given how bad her ex was to her, she is shy of even thinking of going there. Dare and Boston will not let anything happen to Arden on their watch, but they will also not let Arden avoid what will happen between the three of them. Will Arden let her guard down to let the guys in? Will they be able to keep their promise and keep her safe?
I'm not a stranger to poly romances, nor is this my first KL Donn read, but this was a bit of a miss for me. I felt it was a bit choppy, and didn't really feel the chemistry between the three characters. With some danger, a few steamy bits, and some drama, I give this 3.5 stars.

This is the first book in the series and what a start it is! I don’t read a lot of ménage but I have to say that this is one of the best I have read!
This was beautifully written, the story line keeps you on the edge of your seat and turning the pages. We have one seriously sassy, feisty heroine and two seriously hot, overprotective, alpha males!The chemistry and connection between the three characters is believable and seriously hot! Sometimes in ménage stories it’s not always equal but this author does a beautiful job of keeping everyone the same. This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I’ve already started to read her previous books, even if ménage is not your thing please give this book a try you won’t be disappointed!

What a story, I read it all in one sitting I was completely hooked from page one till the very last word. A very hot sexy ménage, Boston & Dare sent to protect Arden but upon first glance knew she was the one for them. Follow them as they try to find out who is stalking Arden. Read how there story unfolds with each word that draws you into the story. Such a passionate and emotional tale. 5 STAR READ.

Let me start off by saying that my first ménage read was by KL and since then I’ve been hooked. This is Arden, Boston and Dare’s story and if you love a book packed with suspense, hot alpha men, a sassy smart mouthed heroine with some hot and heavy scenes then your going to want to read this. Boston and Dare started their own security/protection company when they retired from the service and they’ve been hired by Arden’s Brothers to find her stalker ( which she has no idea she has ) and let me tell you she’s not a fan of having bodyguards lol. In my opinion You can’t go wrong with a KL ménage anyway but I’m not so patiently waiting to see which couple we will be seeing in the second book in this series .
January 2, 2019
I really enjoy reading books that pull you into their world with realistic characters. KL Donn’s characters are always amazing and easy to remember. This story is a ménage with two men and a woman. Arden is an amazingly sweet lady with class and a heart of gold. Arden is smart, beautiful, and hides her true self behind her persona. I absolutely love her. Boston and Dare are alpha uber protective men who will do anything to keep her safe from the danger she finds herself in. While these men are trying to protect her, she leads them a merry chase and stands up for herself. This story made me cry, cheer, and sit on the edge of my seat in suspense. I absolutely love this story and cannot waits for the next one.
January 17, 2019
Okay first off, KL always does an amazing job of making a good read with ménage. I have always liked the thought of why choose just one. And oh man, Unraveling Love is a must read for like minded readers. Dare, Arden and Boston are great together. They had chemistry and I always love a relationship that has a fair amount of banter back and forth between the characters. I also love me a good alpha male and this series is going to have them in abundance. I already have ideas on who goes next.
Honestly this series is going to be awesome. Unraveling Love was well written, with just the right amount of everything you can want in a great read. Well done, and I cannot wait for more from this series.

I have never read this author before but am a huge fan of menage. When I saw this and read the blurb, I bought it and immediately fell in love with the characters. Arden, Boston and Dare make the perfect threesome. The love between them is easy to see and while there is drama and intrigue, there is a wonderful love story. I'll be checking this author's other books out. Love this and highly recommend it!
New edit: This was re-released with more added words and I have to say it made the story so much better. Helped clear some thing up and added a lot more interesting things. I still love these three. And I'm still giving it 5 stars!! Honestly, it needs more stars!

Arden, Boston and Dare are everything. This story is captivating on both an emotional and entertaining level. I fell in love with these three and couldn't put it down, it broke my heart and put it back together. I cannot wait for the following books in this series, I'm seriously invested. Kl continues to show why she's a menage queen.
January 1, 2019
Happy New Year to me! What a well written action packed story. I love that even though Arden is uber rich, she prides herself on making life better for old folks that have been put in nursing homes and forgotten, her kind heart and tenacious attitude made me very happy.
October 11, 2023
I read and loved this book the first time it was published, I swear Donn made this book even better than before! I loved visiting these characters again and absolutely loved the new epilague!
January 3, 2019
ARC provided and I had never read a KL Donn book but I Freaking loved it. Couldn’t put it down and an greedily downloading other works to start. Well written hot ménage and a thrilling story line

Loved this emotional beautiful triad love story.Arden dare and Boston rocked
October 10, 2023
What a perfect Trio!
Anytime that KL Donn writes something, I’m going to read it. And every single time she knocks it out of the park.
Dare and Boston are lifelong friends, consider themselves brothers, and have every intention of keeping it that way for the rest of their lives. And that includes sharing the same women. These to men as everything you’re looking for in a book boyfriend, book man, book ANYTHING! I love how their personalities play off of each other.
Dare is a little more rough around the edges, he knows what he wants but his past keeps him from going for it full throttle. His rough exterior is understandable as through the course of their story his life is explained. And honestly, my heart broke for him. But by the end of this book it was put back together.
Boston is just lighter, KL Donn does an incredible job of giving her characters a presence that jumps off the pages, and Boston is one of those characters. I loved his POVs, I loved his quirks, I loved getting to know him and how determined he was to make their relationship with Arden work. He is the glue that holds their trio together, he’s incredible intuitive and just a perfect partner for both Dare and Arden.
I loved Arden, I was a little worried at first, I wasn’t jiving with her. But by the last page she had me laughing out loud, and that’s not something I do all too often. I love her quirks, her bubbly personality, and how she was so constantly worried about everyone around her. I loved how she used her “spoiled brat” persona to her advantage, because she’s a woman who knows how to get what she wants and needs and isn’t ashamed of that. Arden backs up absolutely everything she’s saying with hard work, determination, and love. She wants to be loved and give all the love she has so desperately, but her terror is something that can’t be ignored. And I loved watching her men break down her walls, deal with her attitudes, and give her everything she had always been hoping for.
I was NOT expecting that ending, one of the best that I have read in a long time. I’m pretty sure I gasped out loud, blurted “oh my god” at least a dozen times, and at the end was giggling and kicking my feet at the HEA KL Donn delivered. If you’ve had the chance to read some of KL Donn’s earlier books were get to reunite with some of my favorite characters as they help Dare, Boston, and Arden unravel the chaos surrounding them.
KL Donn does epilogue’s like no one else, her epilogue’s are by far always my favorite part of her novels. And this time! This time it is GOLD!! Cannot say enough great things about Boston, Dare, and Arden and the tribulations that had to work through, but this book is 1,000,000% worth it!
Anytime that KL Donn writes something, I’m going to read it. And every single time she knocks it out of the park.
Dare and Boston are lifelong friends, consider themselves brothers, and have every intention of keeping it that way for the rest of their lives. And that includes sharing the same women. These to men as everything you’re looking for in a book boyfriend, book man, book ANYTHING! I love how their personalities play off of each other.
Dare is a little more rough around the edges, he knows what he wants but his past keeps him from going for it full throttle. His rough exterior is understandable as through the course of their story his life is explained. And honestly, my heart broke for him. But by the end of this book it was put back together.
Boston is just lighter, KL Donn does an incredible job of giving her characters a presence that jumps off the pages, and Boston is one of those characters. I loved his POVs, I loved his quirks, I loved getting to know him and how determined he was to make their relationship with Arden work. He is the glue that holds their trio together, he’s incredible intuitive and just a perfect partner for both Dare and Arden.
I loved Arden, I was a little worried at first, I wasn’t jiving with her. But by the last page she had me laughing out loud, and that’s not something I do all too often. I love her quirks, her bubbly personality, and how she was so constantly worried about everyone around her. I loved how she used her “spoiled brat” persona to her advantage, because she’s a woman who knows how to get what she wants and needs and isn’t ashamed of that. Arden backs up absolutely everything she’s saying with hard work, determination, and love. She wants to be loved and give all the love she has so desperately, but her terror is something that can’t be ignored. And I loved watching her men break down her walls, deal with her attitudes, and give her everything she had always been hoping for.
I was NOT expecting that ending, one of the best that I have read in a long time. I’m pretty sure I gasped out loud, blurted “oh my god” at least a dozen times, and at the end was giggling and kicking my feet at the HEA KL Donn delivered. If you’ve had the chance to read some of KL Donn’s earlier books were get to reunite with some of my favorite characters as they help Dare, Boston, and Arden unravel the chaos surrounding them.
KL Donn does epilogue’s like no one else, her epilogue’s are by far always my favorite part of her novels. And this time! This time it is GOLD!! Cannot say enough great things about Boston, Dare, and Arden and the tribulations that had to work through, but this book is 1,000,000% worth it!

Ridiculous story.
Storytelling was really rocky, info often came out of order and there was a lot of tell as opposed to show and filler.
The plot-driven storyline was a mess from beginning to end.
Male leads are immediately smitten, one of them before they even meet her, while believing she is a spoiled, shallow socialite, and they seemed to think bodyguard meant her body was at their disposal to touch, fondle, grab, kiss, ect. It was gross, unprofessional and disrespectful. And it put her in danger because when they were busy macking on her, they weren't able to pay attention to what was going on around them.
Female lead was a twit who swung between being a head-in-the-sand victim and a petulant child. Oh, and she's mid-twenties, a college graduate, works in a professional setting and wears frickin' cat ears all the time to give her confidence.
There was no relationship-building.
And then there were gems like these:
1) More so once Dare or I plant a baby in her. This is a man is his mid-thirties thinking this. And he barely knows her so he doesn't even know if she wants children or not.
2) “But what about the baby you might be carrying?”
“What?”
“We didn’t use protection this morning, and I can guaran-fucking-tee, I won’t use it in the future either.” He smirks. And this is the other man, also in his mid-thirties. Talk about being irresponsible and disrespectful. (And the twit decides she's the one in the wrong.)
And then it got really stupid.
Do not recommend.

This book!
***warning, spoillers ahead***
To start off, I have to say I'm pretty picky about my menage stories.
One, It has to be 2 males/1 female.
Two, I prefer if the males never shared before. (To me, It doesn't seem like the h would be special to them if they had shared in the past).
And three, no manwhores (yuk)
Well, in this story, the 2 men had shared before but it wasn't in your face and they weren't manwhores either. Their pasts were never discussed with the h but their inner dialogue recalled how they met each other and how they came to the decision that sharing was natural to them. They always knew they would be in a menage relationship but weren't pigs about it. I was concerned about how this author was going to make me feel the h was special to the men. I should not have been worried at all. KL Donn did a fantastic job showing me just that. There's also a bedroom scene where they do something with the h that they've never done with anyone else before (*blushing). So HOT.
There was so much more to this story though, besides the menage aspect. Loved the supporting characters and hope to hear more from them.
-no cheating
-none are virgins
-alpha, possessive, protecting H's
-multi POV
-great epilogues
-no abuse
If you're a fan of menage stories, this one is for you. Heck, even if you're not a fan, grab this baby. You just might like it.

The first book I ever read by KL Donn was Kennedy's Redemption shortly after it came out a few years ago and I have been hooked ever since. When I tell you this book gave me so many emotions and reminders of those beginning books of hers in such a great way. I feel like fans of hers have been chomping at the bit to get more menage from her and boy does she deliver!
Arden Graham doesn't know what to do with these two ruff and tumble men that are now her bodyguards, by her twin brothers instance (can't wait for that book, just sayin), but boy does that not slow her down a bit. One thing I loved about this book and just generally something I love in general about KL Donn is her strong heroines. Arden was no exception. She pushed back against these overbearing, protective and possessive men.
Speaking of which Boston Falco and Dare Waters are hot. I mean they are seriously some hot, alpha men when have two missions. Protect Arden and make her theirs.
This book is a fantastic journey of these three people coming together in an explosive and very hot way, but also the background story of the retirement home where Arden works and the stalker(s) she has.
I adored Mrs. Donn's return to menage romance. It was a fast paced, suspenseful love story that really gave me everything i have been longing for!

K.L.Finn has done it again! Loved Loved Loved this book. Arden thought she had figured out, she led a simple life loved by her family and working at a retirement home. She couldn't be more blissfully unaware of the dangers lurking around her. Her brothers and father have been getting some frightening letters threatening Arden, which she is totally unaware of. Out of concern for her they hire 2 former DEALS to come and guard their most precious Arden.
Arden is angry and stubborn when it comes to her new bodyguards, even if they are insanely hot. She challenges Boston and Dare st every interaction, she fights them when it comes to relinquishing any of her independence and absolutely refuses to be ordered around. Despite all this Boston and Dare can't seem to want to or be able to fight off the attraction they have towards Arden. As the three some gets closer so does Arden's stalker and when the final secrets are revealed jaws will drop, and Arden's safety is threatened, the only question left to answer is will they make it in time to save her or have they lost her forever...

I’m not even sure there are any perfect words to express how much I loved loved loved these 3 together ( and the chemistry between them was just insane ( you could literally feel the steam coming off the pages . One kick@ss heroine and two swoony Alphas . Mix that with the suspense, the non stop action, the twists and turns, the witty banter , the drama , the humor , the angst , the passion , the obstacles, the family and friendships . You have the most wonderfully written and emotionally charged love story . A must read , a masterpiece that’s unforgettable and unputdownable

This book had two things I will read but am not a big fan of but I love this author's style so I had to give it a go. I am so glad I did. This author gives us a great story filled with action and complications and twists and turns. The brothers and dad are a hoot in how protective they are. Dare and Boston have a long history and after some failed attempts on their own have decided to try something different. Arden is head strong, not one to be handled, and a force on her own, add 2 alpha's it's a crazy house filled with possibilities if they can keep her safe. Awesome story that's filled with characters also in the lifestyle and setting us up for more entertainment I am sure. The thing I love about Ms Donn is even in this short insta-love book she took the time to give background, and let us get to know her characters and allow our minds to engage in the possibilities and make these characters live.

Great story this book follows Arden, Dare & Boston . The men are called in by Arden’s brothers as she has been indirectly receiving threats I wish they would have told her how much danger she was in I understand the feeling of lack of control when you aren’t given all the facts. Arden is a sweet and sassy women who has been judged most of her life due to her status but not many people know the real Arden. She has a dented heart due to a previous relationship, Dare & Boston took one look & knew she was the girl for them. There is danger, hot scenes & a twist I didn’t see coming we meet some character’s from previous books we also meet some new ones I’m hoping for some stories for them. One of my favourite lines is when Arden is giving herself a pep talk & she says “ Tiny I may be, strong willed is what I am”. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series Arden’s brothers.

Unraveling Love is a sexy ménage with a suspenseful twist, add in a strong FMC and some equally alpha men and you have yourself a KL Donn special.
As a socialite, Arden is perceived as spoiled and entitled. That could not be further from the truth. Arden has a heart of gold and her passion is at the retirement home she works at, creating events for their residents. Little does she know something sinister is stalking her…
Enter Dare and Boston. When her brothers hire them to protect her, little do they know just how much she’ll turn their lives upside down.
I loved Arden’s sassiness, she definitely kept the guys on their toes. The guys fell hard for her and I loved watching them unravel.
This book gives you a little bit of everything: ménage, suspense, twists, laughs, a sassy FMC, alpha men, and just an all around great story.
