Menage on 34th Street by Elise Logan & Emily Ryan-Davis

Katrina and Liam Holland have the perfect marriage, a home in the trendiest part of Baltimore, and a scorching sex life. As another Christmas approaches, there's only one thing still on Kat's wish list: Hunter Croft. But she made peace long ago with his decision to choose the marines over their relationship. Until seeing him again arouses feelings she thought were in the past…

Hunter has spent a decade outrunning his attraction to both Kat and Liam. But now that he's stateside, his self-control crumbles when he comes face-to-face with the two people who star in all his favorite fantasies. Their reunion is both erotic and emotional—and has Hunter wondering if three's really a crowd, after all.

Liam can't imagine his life without Kat. But he can imagine a future where the three of them live and love under one roof. Liam and Kat have shared their bed with other men, but Hunter is the only one who could ever have a place in their hearts. And this holiday season, Liam intends to make their dream a reality.

WOW! That was a scorchingly hot read! The sex scenes are hot, hot, HOT! We know from the book’s title that a ménage occurs during the course of the book, but the level of sexual intensity the authors introduce from the very beginning will keep your toes curling throughout most of the read. While things may be a bit uncertain initially, this trio ultimately go for the gusto and explore most of the sexual couplings possible (MF, MM, MFM) and the authors’ ability to describe a scene makes reading the book an almost voyeuristic experience.

I will admit that I didn’t read the book’s synopsis carefully and didn’t realize that the Kat and Liam had known Hunter long before he entered their relationship. Their history with one another made for a much more enjoyable read, especially as they dealt with past hurts and problems and attempted to move forward. What made the relationship aspect so realistic was that the issues weren’t just between Kat & Liam as the couple and Hunter as the third being added to the relationship, but there were also issues arose between each of the pairings. I further appreciated the attention that was paid to Hunter’s serving in the Marines and how pursuing a long-term relationship as a trio could impact his military career negatively.

The authors did an excellent job in writing a ménage book that was both realistic (i.e., addressing real world problems) and sexy. This book has definitely made in on my reread list and I am looking forward to reading the sequel to find out how the fare as they move forward.
