This was hot. My favourite of the series.
All three of the characters were well written and had very distinct personalities.
Dylan and Claire had a really good opening of him saving her isn't though they hated each other.
The side storyline, that we saw the very beginning on in the previous book, between Aiden and Dylan exploring their feelings. Dylan had always been the manwhore, so it was really sweet how unsure he was at times.
The relationship between the three characters built well and didn't feel forced. I wasn't sure how it would be concluded but it was nicely tied up.

Claire, Aiden, Dylan
MMF, military men/runaway bride, brother’s ex fiancée, enemies to lovers.
I have been soooo excited to read this book. I wasn’t really into Seth and Miranda‘s story in the last book but anytime Dylan‘s story was being told. I ate it up.
Some downsides to this book is that it’s written in 3rd person POV and that Aiden and Dylan call each other “man” during sex. Also Chris is absolute scum.
I liked the story but I didn’t love it as much as I wanted to.
There are 9 spicy scenes that include MM, MF, and MMF. Very hot! 4🔥

The audio version of this book was so much better than the previous book. Aidan, Claire, and Dylan were in the previous book which was narrated by a man. This book was narrated by a woman, which was a bit of a surprise when I first started listening.
I want to be clear. The narration being male or female made little difference. Both were good narrators. I felt like this storyline was just much better than the previous book's.
Aidan, Claire, and Dylan enter a relationship that is supported by some and scorned by others. They each have somewhat of a painful issue to deal with, and they help each other through the process of coming to terms with the issues.
Dylan's brother, Chris is a scumbag on almost every level. Truly unscrupulous. This book is full of emotions, secrets, judgemental behavior, and ultimately, acceptance. The epilogue was somewhat satisfying.
It is sweet, romantic, and oh so steamy. If you are offended by MFM, MM, MMF, or any other sexual encounters, take a pass on this book.

Good writing and character development but the story wasn't quite there for me.
Claire is dating a rising corporate lawyer, Chris, and is enemies with Chris' brother Dylan. The book starts with Claire and Dylan arguing and later she sees him kissing a man, who we find out is Aiden. This is a big deal because Dylan is a Navy SEAL and he's not out as gay or bi to his family. Claire is caught seeing them and she promises not to tell. Time skips and it's her wedding day to Chris, but he walks out on her because he's a suck up and his coworkers have made it clear that Claire won't get him ahead at his job. Claire is freaking out about the situation so Dylan takes her back to his & Aiden's apartment in San Diego to lie low while Chris goes off on the honeymoon they already paid for.
Claire, Aiden, and Dylan are attracted to each other. Dylan and Aiden have been together for a few months, they love each other but they're not gay they "need a woman every once in a while." Aiden locks Dylan and Claire in a room for them to get over each other where Claire tells Dylan that his mom Shanna has a crazy bad gambling addiction and was about to lose her home. Chris has been helping her the past year and Dylan hasn't done anything. Claire was judging him for not helping, but turns out he didn't even know and he had been misinterpreting all her comments about him and his mom. They literally kiss and makeup.
After that the 3 start a relationship together. It's extremely hot :P There's interactions with their friends where they admit they're in a "true 3-way" relationship and since this is already a very kinky group they're all accepting.
There's a situation with Aiden's dad who has a heart attack. And Dylan gets called up for a mission. Claire and Aiden have some time alone then later Dylan and Claire. These one-on-one times help the characters talk about their relationships and admit that they love each other. Once Aiden comes home he and Dylan finally admit they love each other.
But Claire was raised in a very conservative household. When Chris comes back from the honeymoon and sees them all in a state of undress, he tells her boss who fires her and tells her dad who stops speaking to her and tries to nearly disown her. Claire refuses to give up her relationship though and she starts putting together her own consulting company. Eventually her dad shows up on their doorstep saying her mom through him out. After a week of living with them where he grudgingly grows to accept her relationship with Aiden and Dylan, they go to dinner and reconcile him with her mom. After that its HAE for Claire, Dylan, and Aiden. They may or may not get married, and who is going to have children with Claire is still TBD but they are all 3 committed to each other.

This book was adorable!
I’m so glad this wasn’t just smutty and that the main ménage all had connections to each other. It was very wholesome and the love between them all was very equal. Although, I didn’t like how quickly they all got together. I think I would have loved more of a slow-burn and tension between the main character and the men, especially since she literally just got left at the alter. But I kind of expected the romance to be fast because of the length of the book. Other then that it was good!
