4 starsThis was a very good story. I liked Julia, Hunter and Jay and how they came together. A hot read but with good emotional content as well. :)Julia is a pharmaceutical rep in Sidney. She's smart and well balanced and seems to have it all together. Julia was raised a good girl and her family expects her to get married and have kids. Julia has no idea what she's supposed to do when realizes that she's fallen in love with 2 men and she can't figure out which one she loves more.Jay is also a pharmaceutical rep in Sidney. He and Julia have known each other for about a year but Jay was involved with someone at the time. By the time he was free, Hunter had come in to the picture and Jay didn't make a move because of him.Hunter is a product manager from another pharmaceutical company and part the poker club that Jay invites Julia to join. He also wants Julia but doesn't move in because of Jay. I liked both Hunter and Jay, they're good guys and both like Julia a lot.The ice breaks on the careful detente that the trio has going a couple of weeks before Christmas when they're the only one's left at the poker game. Julia end up sharing a few kisses with both men but leaves after that and is unsure of herself, avoiding both men for the next week. She talks about her issues with her sister but it still comes back to the fact that she could never bring 2 men home to her family. When she gets to poker night the week before Christmas, she finds that it was cancelled (although she didn't get a message) and she ends up alone with Jay and Hunter. Jay and Hunter take the chance to get her in their arms again and once there, Julia can't think of getting out. After that night, the trio spends every night together and when Julia spends Christmas day with her family, she's torn because she can't stand the idea of losing Hunter and/or Jay but she doesn't know if she could get her family to accept it. Her sister does find out though and wants to meet Jay and Hunter, seeming willing to give them a chance so it doesn't seem impossible.As Julia begins to realize she seriously wants something long-term including all 3 of them, she wonders how the men are feeling. They prove to be just as interesting in making their trio long term as she's thinking but they all take some time to explore things and don't share with the families yet. This ends up being a good thing as there are more relationship landmines to navigate, including the unexpected attraction that comes out between Hunter and Jay, and Hunter's subsequent freak out about it. Julia manages to talk Hunter down and with Jay and Julia's help, Hunter starts to come to terms with some things. They start bonding even closer as a trio and spend New Years eve together and have some explosive sex and some emotional bonding. In the end, Hunter, Jay and Julia agree to tell their families and work their relationship in to something permanent and they start their HEA.This was very good. I really liked the characters and the story was really well done. It didn't seem as short as it was and I felt the sexual content was well balanced with the emotions as the trio came together. I'd recommend this story. Thumbs up! :D
