Editorial Reviews:
I had everything a woman could want…

My husband, James. The house on the lake.

My life. Our perfect life.

And then Alex came to visit.

The first time I saw my husband's best friend, I didn't like him. Didn't like how James changed when he was around, didn't like how his penetrating eyes followed me everywhere.

But that didn't stop me from wanting him. And, surprisingly, James didn't seem to mind.

It was meant to be fun. Something the three of us shared for those hot summer weeks Alex stayed with us. Nobody was supposed to fall in or out of love. I didn't need another man, not even one who oozed sex like honey and knew all the secrets I didn't know, the secrets my husband hadn't shared. After all, we had a perfect life.

And I loved my husband.

But I wasn't the only one.

Summary: So Disappointed!!
Comment: I've read two of Megan Hart's other books (Broken and Dirty) and really enjoyed them. I was excited and couldn't wait to get my hands on this book. I was so disappointed. I'm taking my copy to the used bookstore for credit.

Summary: Wow!
Comment: I loved this book; and simply could not put it down. I read the book in one reading staying up until 4:00 am to finish it. It's not typical erotica - it is so much more. I appreciate a book that can illustrate the complexities of life, love, and relationships and challenges you to evaluate your own relationships in life and why you make the decisions you make.

some have mentioned the ending is unsatisfactory. The problem really is that these readers don't want to face the fact that often life is unsatisfactory and there isn't always an easy answer, or neat wrap-up to lifes trials and tribulations. There is not always a happily ever after ending in life; so why shouldn't a book mirror reality? This book illustrates the complexities of relationships and the unforseen consequences of the decisions that we make. It's messy and it's painful and there are no clear cut answers to the dilemma that these three characters find themselves in. There was just no way for everyone to be happy at the end of this story. In fact, no one was happy. There were no winners. Both a long term friendship and a marriage were irreparably damaged by the consequences of the decisions these three people made. As the story unfolds, we see how other relationships in these characters pasts have affected how they currently view and handle relationships. We understand why they make the decisions they make in the end, and we sympathise and ache for each one of them. This book is master storytelling at its best! If you want a clean, neat, happily ever after book, read Cinderella.

Summary: A Sexy Sad Truth
Comment: I was hooked by the very first scene and had to see what would come of Alex's phone call revealing his soon-to-be arrival home. I felt besides the erotic scenes, which were very fun and descriptive, Hart put the characters together very well. Life isn't all butterflies and she created plenty of conflict within her characters to make it real. However, I do find it hard to believe that every single character had a different problem: love triangle, homosexuality, gambling addictions, pregnancy, affairs, alcoholism... while I felt the characters were very in depth, it was almost over the top and the book became almost deflating at some points with all the issues going around. Also, I felt Jamie's private issues with Alex went unresolved or untold. Besides these two things, I liked the ending. While normally I like a happily-ever-after to lift the spirits, life isn't always like that and I believed the book ended like it should (even though I was sympathetic for Alex who ends up alone). I'm glad Anne found her sense of self, and she knows its up to her to make the best of what she has. Not everyone is meant to live in a perfect menage-a-trois. Ah, well.

Summary: Much more than I expected.
Comment: I bought this book on impulse but held off on reading it because I figured it would be all sex and no real characters or storyline but I was wrong. I pretty much couldn't put it down once I started reading it. The author really delves into each of the characters, their family, etc.. and shows you how they came to be the person they are now. She brings out their passion, humor, and vulnerabilities so that you actually care what happens to each of them. I was very pleasantly surprised by this book.

Summary: Good, but not quite what was expected
Comment: Overall the storyline was pretty good. I didn't really like the ending that much, and if you are looking for something erotic this really isn't what you're looking for...but overall the storyline was much stronger than some erotic novels.
