I'm not really into the ménage scene, but since I'm willing to read just about anything, I've read a few stories that encompass ménage romance.  I enjoyed this novella very much.  IMO, the author did a good job promoting the romance between Avery, Ellis, and Olivia, underlining the fact that their relationship is more about love than sex.  Furthermore, I really liked all the characters, and I particularly loved the way both men loved Olivia.  Avery and Ellis have a deep, meaningful, nonsexual connection.  They are men who, for whatever reason, need to share the love of a woman in order to feel fulfilled.  Although Avery has this need, he puts Olivia's feelings first; he is willing to subjugate his needs to ensure Olivia's happiness.  Olivia has loved Avery and Ellis ever since she was courted by both men.  Once she married Avery; however, she devoted her life to being a good wife to him.  When Ellis comes back into their lives, Olivia's feelings for him are rekindled.  While I agree with reviewers who said that Olivia's acceptance of the alternative lifestyle is a bit quick, I was willing to suspend disbelief and accept that she was happy to have both Avery and Ellis in her life.  My acceptance is due, in large part, to the author's skill in demonstrating the love between Olivia and Avery, and Olivia and Ellis.  I really believed that Olivia loved both men, and that they both loved her.  The story is fabulous.  The interactions between Olivia and Ellis are sweet, the love scenes hot.  I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it as a worthwhile read.
