Kylan and his two daddies have been a bit of a mystery throughout the first two books, and now we finally get to see what they're all about. It kind of felt like we were dropped into the middle of their story, and in a way, I think we were because these three have already been in their arrangement for some time, so all the feelings and everything were already there when the book starts. Not getting to see how they got to the point they were at kind of made it hard for me to fully connect emotionally to their relationship. Even though it would have taken the timeline back a little from the first two books, it would have been nice to see how they started (vs. just the little recap we were given in the first few chapters).

The dynamic between Leon, Marek, and Kylan was good, however. They all got something they needed from the arrangement, and the spicy scenes were very spicy. This book was angstier than the first two, I thought. And a lot of the angst came when actual feelings entered the equation. It felt a little dramatic and over the top, but I guess these guys just felt everything very deeply. 

I enjoyed the scenes between Kylan, Fitch, and Benji, too. And we finally got some closure on the stuff with Benji's dad from the first book. I think that if you're going to read these books, they're best read in order because there are overarching storylines that run throughout.
