If you want straight sex all the time, this is the series for you. For me it was like a porno the whole time. Not for me. I needed more plot.

This whole series is very hot and very steamy but in the sex, in the language of the sex itself, you get the love and devotion of the three men. Devon had his own demons to vanquish that love conquered. Kit had growing up to do and to learn about trust and submission. Jonathan had to find out that if he allowed himslef to love without restraint that the rest of it would all fall into place. The ending is satisfying and while not a HEA it is a HFN with tremendous promise. For everyone who was waiting for the last installment, this is it. Time to pick these up.

I'm going to talk about all six books in the series here, but this is particularly about this last book.

So, I accepted after reading the first book that this series would mostly be about sex and how the three men's relationship developed through that sex. I was fine with that, mostly. Nevertheless, I was actually quite pleased when Devon's ex turned up, since that meant we got some action that didn't directly involve sex, as a nice change. Even so, the sex was, for the most part, mega hot, unless you're not into some of the practises explored (bondage, d/s and spanking, amongst other things).

However, when I got to this book, I came across what was, for me, a bit of a dealbreaker. I was relatively okay when two of their co-stars watched the three have sex, because all were happy to be watched and enjoyed the experience. However, when the two subsequently joined the trio in bed, that was a step too far for me. I didn't think Jonathan was really that okay with the idea of sharing his lovers with someone else, and neither Kit nor Devon seemed to put much thought into the idea, either. The scene where the three discussed the proposition was fine, as far as it went, but the fact that Jonathan was eventually persuaded to ignore his doubts by the two co-stars in a crowded bar using kisses was not.

I realise that my issue about the validity of the consent might just be a personal preference, but I thought that the way Devon and Kit allowed Jonathan's doubts to be just over-ridden in that manner was not consistent with the consideration they had showed him throughout the series. Nor did I think that the effort the trio had gone to to get their relationship right was consistent with thoughtlessly agreeing to allow two more men into their bed for a night, without proper discussion and without all three being 100% onboard with the idea.

If it wasn't for this one scene, I would have totally enjoyed the series. I especially liked the fisting scene and how Kit's discomfort with the practise was handled by Devon and Jonathan. And the failed caning scene was an important addition, since it seems more realistic to me that someone wouldn't enjoy something they tried for the first time, instead of always loving everything new.

So, overall, I enjoyed the series for what it was, but my enjoyment has been marred by my discomfort with this last book. I will re-read the series in the future, but I might just skip this book.

“No Limits” was the perfect title for this final installment of Devon, Jon and Kit. They pulled out all the stops and this was almost a non-stop sex fest that pushed one boundary in particular. Most of it was great, but I was a little disappointed when the m/m/m ventured a bit further. I would have also loved to see a more definite closure for this final book, but regardless, it was really nice visiting with the boys again:)

It fit with the rest of the series. I was hoping for more of a wrap up (or a later 'epilogue') than it had, but if you liked the rest of the series, you'll probably like the end.

So enjoyed this series. So many things were explored between the guys. I liked how they resolved their scheduling issues.
