It’s really difficult to find good ones where all the partners are equal and feelings are genuine.
Sadly, Third One left me somehow disappointed. The sex scenes are exquisite, and there are some truly spectacular moments.
Luke felt relief. Slow and exploring, kissing Liam was a revelation. Liam tasted of freedom. Years of guilt and loneliness melted away in that kiss.
Luke has valid doubts about the three of them pursuing a relationship.
“Then what are you afraid of?” “Being the third one.”
Though Liam managed to win Luke over, neither he, nor Luke persuaded me the genuineness of their feelings.
“The three of us, we have a chance at something beautiful,” Liam said, his breath on Luke’s mouth. “Maybe I’m just greedy, but the closer I am to fifty, the less I care about guilt or shame or judgment. I want everything. I want Marcus content, I want you in my bed, and I want you to want me the same way you want him.”
And I didn’t really like Marcus, sometimes he behaved immature.
There’s too much focus on the erotica, and not enough on the relationship development.

Jeremy and Owen have been friends since high school, Jeremy secretly longing for Owen, of course, but he is convinced that Owen is “straight as an arrow.”
Up until Owen witnesses Jeremy having sex in a sex club, he can’t stop thinking about it, thinking about Jeremy. So he asks something really special for his birthday. Out of curiosity.
“We’ve known each other a long damn time. Been friends a long damn time. This isn’t going to change that.” Was he really that naïve? “This always changes things.” “Fine. Then we’ll deal with it. But not tonight.”
Of course Jeremy can’t resist the request.
“Talk to me now, Owen. Tell me you like your birthday present. That you’re enjoying your little walk on the wild side.” Owen was shaking against him. “Jeremy I – yes.” “That’s all you’re going to give me?” Jeremy made a tsking sound. “Monosyllabic man-speak doesn’t work for me. Should I stop and try something else?” Owen’s voice was a study in frustration. “I fucking love it, okay? Don’t stop.”

Tons of erotic scenes – dirty, delicious, insane, wonderfully emotional sex scenes – but surprisingly there is a plot, too. Some family drama, friendship, a bit of non-communication, but not much.
Great story, I loved it! Recommended. [image]...more
