My husband and I read this book together. We both absolutely loved it. I can definitely see myself reading it all over again in the future.

Other than the very mediocre plot and the fact that this was longer than necessary, it was exactly what I need right now and I ate it up

I read this like last year. and I am not one for polygamy, but god three hot men in a band? that’s a wet pipe dream on paper. this was VERY entertaining and the author knew what she was doing

4.5 Stars for Braxton Fawn and her harem of rock stars!



Omg this book was so different from BB's Fear Me series (which is probably one of the first series I read in the bully genre which got me hooked to that trope). Braxton was invited to join the band Bound to replace their guitarist who died of an overdose. Not only did she have to prove herself to the band musically that she could keep up with their iconic status, but also shine as her own person.

Boy did Braxton knock them out of the park!

I didn't really like the fact that the first few chapters seemed like a filler, just to elongate whatever it was that was going on with the fmc and the rest of the guys. While I liked how their connections to each other was described, I had a hard time not skimming a lot of the chapters because of how it just seemed like it took too long for something to happen. While I liked the fact that the fmc had them begging when they wronged her, when it happened again, it just seemed rushed. Like they were just forced to kiss and make up because some urgent thing happened. Maybe that's just me.

However, there are good things about this book! Their romances were slow burn, not really that insta-love. While they had an instant attraction with one another, they didn't do anything about it immediately. For a reverse harem full-length book that wasn't just cut into a trilogy or four parts, this was really nice to read. And very different too seeing as how they were all stars.
