maybe a 2.5.
Picked this up as part of a free "stuff your nook" day the other day and needed something like this for an HB Reading Embrace prompt and thought, why not? it's only about 2.5 hrs
It's...not that good. One, you do have to take for granted that you're going to elide some relationship building in a novella but there's almost...none...that makes me believe this one woman and three dudes are going to make this work in the very long term. Two, there are a few consent issues floating around, mostly the fact that the time for the second partner (David) to introduce a third (Greg) to the mix, when that is not even a possibility at the start of an encounter, is not when David is (essentially) balls-deep in Kay. Third, she hooks up with her assistant (Sean) prior to encountering David and Greg (together - she made out with Greg in a bar at the start of the story and then didn't meet him again until..."hey we like to share") and then Sean is weirdly pushy about getting together despite her saying that it's not possible due to work rules. Fourth, I didn't find this very steamy, particularly since this is billed as a "Why Choose?" and that foursome is crammed into the end and sort of...fizzles. (also, swords never cross, fyi)
And finally...why is the audiobook narrator English? Every single character in this book lives in the US and went to college in the US (except one - Greg, who is a British Airways pilot, and is the mostly likely to be of UK origin) and they all have nearly identical British accents. Good thing it was so short.

I didn't like the beginning but the rest was enjoyable.
It's a reverse harem but I just know that if it was a bi quartet it would've been better.

It may be a very short book but it certainly packs a punch. Proving that things happen in threes, Kay is left to decide which one of the three men she has a connection with will be the one she ultimately chooses. But why not all three? Highly spicy, highly entertaining and an overall great read.
