Seems I didn't leave a review the 1st time I read this book. I remember it being a lot better than this. I have these memories of the 3 characters together that just didn't come up on my 2nd read! weird. I don't particularly enjoy Joel as a narrator. So am glad he's only doing 3 books in this series.
I enjoyed the story, I think all characters are very clearly defined, Kennedy is very good at that, and at writing mmm! So I'll leave my rating as is.

So many times with ménage, it begins with two. This one completely began with all three falling for each other. I think that was the best part of this book. It was always three.

2019 re read... still 4.5 stars if yummy goodness. These three were beautiful. I love this dark world Sloane created. Filled with crazy hot men who love their men and this one was really good



⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 stars

So I actually wrote this really awesome review but for some reason it's gone haha let's try again!

Jonas, Cole, and Mace were beautifully broken.

Each of these men had a darkness that they needed to let go of and the only light that brought them out was each other and I loved it!

What I seriously love about this author is who she makes a crazy trio make such a beautiful unit. By the end of the book your already seeing just how perfect these 3 fit and you can't imagine it being just two of them.

I feel like any good explanation will give too much away. But I'll try. Jonas and Cole have a tragic connection and mace is acting of orders and vengeance. At first it makes no sense but this book sucks you right in and has you wondering what the heck is going on and as the story unfolds your so hooked you can't put it down.

This was hot as heck , fast paced and filled with crazy action. I can't wait for book 2

Wow! This book grabbed me from the beginning and never let go. I can be a little ADD when reading, and often wander away and read other books when I'm getting bored. Not this one! I could barely put it down. Between the plot (I was dying to know who the bad guy was!) and the HOT HOT encounters between the main characters, I read it in an afternoon and have already moved on to the next.

This was also one of the first m-m-m books I've read, and I thought it was really well done (did I mention HOT!?). It seemed plausible to have three guys that cared about each other and managed things so that nobody felt left out.

All consuming

It's been a while since I read a book that consumed my thoughts as completely as Absolution did. I couldn't stop thinking about Jonas, Mace and Cole throughout the story. They were such beautifully crafted characters and I absolutely adored their story.

First of all, I know this book isn't for everyone, it is an M/M/M.
Jonas appears to be a sweet-natured and caring artist that came back to open his dream studio. Unknown to him, Ex-cop Mace knows horrible things about Jonas no one knows. So he is determined to kill him, but something is stopping him. He has been watching him closely for weeks and still can't pull the trigger, something is nagging at him.
Then when Navy SEAL Cole comes to visit Jonas to ask about his long lost sister that he just discovered is lost for good, things start to heat up.
Secrets from the past get unveiled and charge up the air between the three guys. Will the truth be revealed in time or will it be too late for them.

A sweet read with suspense and shooters involved. I liked the flow of the story and the romance was hot! This was a new author for me but I will check more books soon! I might pick up the next in the series ;)
