Sexy!
Good smut!
I feel there is no point to rank the boyfriends, since by the end, I was in love with all three of them. But I will say I began the story with Riv as a clear favorite, graduated to Eli, and then fell in love with Cole when he softened up in the snow storm.
Ahem ahem, there is also a polyamrous four way. This book is amazing, and exactly what I needed this month. I could do with more “why choose” stories that include a full-on gang bang. *phew* So steamy!!

I’m obviously not looking for the next William Shakespeare when I read stuff like this, so this was like fun and fine.
I really like Cole and Daisy’s dynamic the most, I mean there’s nothing better than the chase.
There’s about 5-6 scenes within the book so pretty run of the mill for a spicy romance KU book.
The ending was a little rushed but fine. I would not have forgiven my parents, but maybe that’s just me?
Crying score: Not a chance.
PS if you can’t over look spelling errors popping up every couple of pages I’d say don’t read this, but I didn’t mind it.

First foray into reverse harem and wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about it. But I really enjoyed this book, I like Lily Gold’s writing it is fun and flirty and downright steamy 😍 the humor and heart in this book is fabulous

I love a forced proximity romance, and why choose, and this combines all three with some great conflict.
Intrigue: 10/10

Daisy flees to Sweden to escape [spoilers here] and finds herself staying in a cabin with three Swedish men who like to share everything, including sources of tragic backstory.
I think Gold has created a cast of wonderful, likable characters whose interactions are distinct and believable. The sex scenes were well-crafted, especially the multi scenes, which can be hard to coordinate. My particular favorite character is Eli, who is the emotional core of the trio of male love interests.
My investment in the backstories of the other two male leads was more limited, due to their (the backstories) late arrival into the book. The non-sexy parts of the book were also a little thin, without just taking the plunge and removing them altogether. Specifically, I'm thinking of Riven and Cole's non-sex scene characterizations.
Overall, this book was well-written, with sizzling chemistry between all the leads and well-crafted sex scenes, but also good humor. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a reverse harem romance with no alpha MLs.

Overall 5/5 ⭐️
Smut 4.8/5🌶 the smut is perfect they do it a lot. A LOT. But there's less fluff for all the shagging. Not saying there's none just could be more fluffy romance 🤷🏽♀️
-protagonist Flys out to a different country
-has to life with 3 strangers
-balanced drama not too much just 👌🏽
-would have wished for more scenes with just fingering or just a bj
-2 day sitting
