Her boyfriend, Bo Crenshaw, has lured her untamed spirit out to play once too often. It s time to get the hell out of Dodge and make a new start where no one knows her past.

On the appointed night, Shanna expects nerves. Yet once she crosses the threshold, the prospect of surrendering to a night of unrestrained passion with Bo and the three Kinzie brothers makes her mouth water and her courage dry up.

Product Warnings

Four lusty cowboys prove a little domination goes a long way in breaking a stubborn woman to saddle. Lots of spanking, binding, flogging, and double-dipping can keep a girl on her toes, her back, her belly, her knees "

A novella that is really interesting--sort of oblique in its perspective about the relationship between the main characters, but very much delving into the inner insecurities that often short-circuit potentially wonderful relationships. Some "lite" BDSM and menage action. AFter all, its Delilah Devlin. But good writing and an unusual plot make this short book a worthy read.

Proving She's Worth It

Shanna Davies isn't her "easy" mama, but she is sure the whole town of Two Mule thinks she's just like her. Bo and the Kinsie brothers are here to prove her wrong! Surrender is the name of the game, is Shanna willing to play along? Give this short story a chance, it will make you dream of amazing things!

Review courtesy of Romance Junkies (rated 4.5 Blue Ribbons):

Being brought up as the town tramp's daughter has made Shanna a very insecure woman. She is afraid to express her true desires to her longtime boyfriend, Bo, for fear of being labeled trash like her mother. Shanna has grown tired of feeling this way and is ready to let loose her inhibitions. After all, it could not be a better time since she plans on moving soon. In a moment of passion, she tells Bo what she has always wanted to experience. She never expects him to be so quick to oblige her.

Before Bo will allow Shanna to walk out of his life, he wants her to know his true feelings for her. He has been in love with her since they were kids, but has not wanted to scare her off by admitting it. When Shanna confesses her secret fantasy to Bo, he sees it as an opportunity to change her mind about leaving. With the help of a few buddies, Bo plans on proving to her just how bad she needs him in her life. Will Shanna get scared and run? Or will she finally get past her fears and take the next step in their relationship?

FOUR SWORN is a smoldering sensual read that left me hungering for more. It is the third novel in the LONE STAR LOVERS series, which is my new favorite series by Delilah Devlin. There is nothing I enjoy more than a good romance about sexy cowboys and not only do we get one, we get four. I was truly fascinated by the steamy scenes between Shanna and her men. I cannot wait to read the next novel, BREAKING LEATHER. It is about the Kinzie brothers and they are one mouth-watering bunch of men. Keep writing those scorchers, Ms. Devlin.

This is book 3 in the Lone Star Lovers series and it features Bo Crenshaw and Shanna Davies. Shanna is so insecure about herself because of her mother. It must have been hard being the town whore's daughter. In this case, "the sins of the mother" and all that. I felt so sorry for Bo but he was there by choice.

Let's talk about those Kinzie's! PHEW! These three are so incredibly sexy with their panty-melting smiles and cowboy confidence. The masculinity just oozes off of Ezra. Bo couldn't have chosen better. I liked the mental banter Shanna had over being in the situation she was in.

Great characters and smooth story line. This is my favorite in the series so far. I can't wait to read book 4.

Shanna and Bo (friend with benefits) have been fooling around for years, but Shanna won't commit, won't give an inch, because deep down she fears she isn't good enough. Her mother was the town "ho" and she dreams of leaving town and starting new, where no one knows her. She has some naughty fantasies though, and Bo decides to make them come true with a going away present.

I loved Bo's character, so very giving and thoughtful and understanding. Ahhh, we know it's fiction, but I gotta think there are some Bo's out there. Great character development for a novella, and the romance was hot, rough and tender at the same time. Just how I like it!

2.5-3 stars

Well this is my least favorite in this series so far...the first two drew me in, enthralled me with their stories, their commitment, their feelings and turmoil....this story however felt a little hollow and shallow, wasn't a fan of the main characters, and even though I know they have their own book next in this series, it felt as though the Kenzie boys outshone the leads...personally I see this more as an introduction to the Kenzie men and what they're going to bring to their own book...looking forward to reading it ;)

I've read most of the other Lone Star Lovers books and so far this is my favorite. I loved the love story in this piece. Shanna had her reasons for keeping Bo at bay, but the poor guy, I just wanted to hug him up tight.;) Devlin has found a way to mingle BDSM erotica with a touching love story and deliver a deep message that really touched me. I'd absolutely recommend this series to everyone, but most importantly, don't miss this read! HOT!!!

Shanna is determined to get out of Two Mule Texas and leave the town and the rumours behind.

Bo Crenshaw has loved Shanna since the first time he laid eyes on her. Determined to prove to Shanna how he feels, Bo plans a night to make all her fantasies come true. Can Bo really shared Shanna with someone else and will Shanna finally decide to stay in Two Mule Texas?

Four Sworn is a sexy, hot, short read and one lovers of cowboy ménage will enjoy.

Normally short erotic romance stories are about the sex. Delilah Devlin manages to create strong, likable characters. It is even plausible that the characters would do the things they did. I didn't give it a full five stars because I thought the heroine's change of plans was a little abrupt and the flip flop of scary Ezra to scary but I can talk to him Ezra was also a bit abrupt.

Another short quick read. This book was all sex not much of a story. Not much about the characters. It was short on Bo and Shanna's story and more about the Kenzie brothers. I was a little disappointed in this book.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Rock Star Lit.

Another hot yet unbelievable storyline by Ma. Devlin. On what planet does a guy in love with a girl hand her over to three uber hot brothers to screw her senseless? With that said, I did enjoy the Kinzie brothers as they "broke" Shanna.

Love this tale of small town romance problems. Not enough women to go around ! The men take charge and convince their gal to take them on. She already loves Johnny. Interesting, different, romantic, and sexy. ENJOY !!

Yet another in the series that is seriously lacking in plot and character development. However, if you can accept the fact that four men are going at her at once, it's a very erotic read.
