2.75 - This book had good intentions and I think with a bit more, would have been outstanding. I love L.A. Witt's writing, but this one had more sex than story and the story was good! Chris's review says most everything that I would: here.
I cannot believe I am about to say this but, less sex, more dialog.

I typically don't enjoy reading books with menage setups - this one wasn't an exception. I mainly read this just so I could read the rest of The Distance Between Us series without missing anything. Though, I do think that even if this wasn't a menage setup, I probably wouldn't have liked it just based on the fact that a 10-year relationship was essentially thrown away over a failure to communicate. The resolution, once it happened, was too fast. And I felt that there was maybe a bit too much focus on the sex and not the people partaking in it.

This book is beyond hot, the menage scenes are amazing, but even more than the sex, this book is about emotions.
The pain and hurt, the past memories, the longing, are all tied together so tightly that you can physically feel the pull when all this threads start unravelling.
There's so much more than just the physical in this narrative. It's an out two men who'd forgotten how to communicate finding their voices again through a most unorthodox method.
Each one has moments where they're on the edge, but the only voice we clearly hear the inner thoughts of is that of Rhett. But that doesn't mean the reader is left blind at how both Ethan and Kieran feel.
The plot is skilfully woven to allow all their emotions to surface and its all carefully pulled back together with a HEA which is as much deserved as it is hard won.
This is another retro release from Lori and I loved it.

As always, the writing from this author is stellar. What bothered me was the acute emotional pain Rhett and Ethan were in because they had ended their relationship. My goodness it made me so uncomfortable. I think if I had known what caused it and gotten into Ethan's head, it might have been better. The furnace worthy sex blew my kindle apart. Whew!! But I just needed more story to explain why they were breaking up after 10 years.

First, this is a "couple separated, using a third to feel better" story. There are some lessons here for the attentive, about respect and particularly about pushing for communication. Being a third is its own set of challenges, including demanding respect and consideration. I think the author handled the dynamics well. That's why I wanted to enjoy this more than I did.
I finished it because it entertained me enough. Central is Rhett's difficulties with communication, an aspect of successful relationships no matter what the configuration. Ethan and particularly Kieran had all my sympathy, as I'm sure the author intended. The plot was great, the tensions came through clearly. However, Rhett's inner dialogue is written as telling, telling, telling far more than we see him act out. Showing is, or can be, more subtle. It assumes the reader is paying attention, and that's a compliment. There are also two chapters that start by restating what the previous chapter ended with - an editing error, I assume.
I did like the evolutions in their sex scenes, and I did like how the story ended. That last bit's important. :)

Exceedingly hot sex. Entirely implausible relationship dynamics. The house has more dimension than the characters.
