She tried vanilla, and it was a total bust. But when she and her last girlfriend took things out of the kink club and into the "real" world, they fizzled. Even their friendship is on the rocks now. Mara feels like a lost stray, looking for a forever home.When the three of them meet up at the brand-new club Escape, their connection is instant. And surprising—none of them were expecting more than a few hot nights. But now they might be ready to bring their kinky threesome into the light of day and build a life together.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In a story that rings with authenticity, three people follow their hearts and end up somewhere surprising. Married couple Delia (an editor) and Daniel (an architect) have a perfect life in the American suburb of St. Andrews, which appears to be a thinly veiled San Jose, Calif. They're slowly easing into the kinky lifestyle they've both always secretly desired. The missing element in their life seems to come into focus when they meet a submissive named Mara at a local club, but they have to decide whether they have it within themselves to make room in their marriage for a third. Mara has suffered too many letdowns recently to leap into something so risky, and she's astonished to realize that she wants to pursue Delia and Daniel anyway. The relationships build quickly, but the marriage is constructed so solidly, and the participants' knowledge of both kink and polyamory is so convincing that it's easy to go along for the ride and enjoy the red-hot sex and the warmth and vulnerability of the whole cast. Dryden (Snow Job) capably develops her cerebral, matter-of-fact, slightly hapless protagonists, who know exactly how far they're straying from cultural expectations and boldly fight their own doubts and hesitations in pursuit of an unconventional, DIY happy ending.
