I had really hoped to like this book as it was one of the recommendations but unfortunately for me I did not. Or I should say I was ok with it for the most part until I got to 50% as all I was reading since and even much after was just the spice scenes and while I can and have appreciated those scenes it wasn’t worth the 400 something pages when the FMC felt flat to me and I had only genuinely liked the one MMC in this why choose romance. The other two, felt like they should have been main characters in their romance book. And one MMC in my opinion felt like he lacked enough emotional maturity to really be in a poly relationship. And what really made me start to hate the FMC and the other two MMC was when they  didn’t seems to listen to the one MMC concerns or reservations regarding the poly relationship. The rest of the romance just gave nothing, I would have loved to get more actual interaction with each other as groups to see how the relationship developed but nothing. In short, felt flat to me from the romance to the characters except for one the MMC and a few side characters.
