Review: Wonderful sexy little story, not nearly enough foursomes

Boys Next Door is a wonderful story of a woman who is looking for a reboot for her life: a new job, a new town, a new house. What she isn't looking for is a new relationship, but she keeps stumbling into one of them. In specific, three sexy guys across the street from her. Naturally, by the first day, they are already sniffing around her and soon the sexy little romps begin.Now, I though the arrangement of the street was a bit forced for me (one house on one side, three on the other). The main character uses the fable The Three Little Pigs throughout the story, though I felt there wasn't nearly enough blowing to really justify that story. There is a lot of sex... oh, lovely, yummy sex scenes that didn't feel forced or tacked on (okay, two were). The details were nice, the characterizations were spot on, and I thought the conflict was a wonderful spice to the entire piece.There were a few scenes that didn't really do much for me. The main character's date to "get away from the hot guys she's falling for" seemed like an unnecessary plot. The teaser sex in the very beginning set the mood, but that lover only came up against once. The former didn't have a sex scene but it feel cumbersome, as did the entire tower plot (though, the idea of being banged from behind on top of a tower? yummy).I also was utterly happy to find out there was some bisexual people in the story, and a female wasn't one of them. It is hard to find good romantic erotica with guy-on-guy and this didn't disappoint. The fact there was more than once scene... that just made it even better.The biggest frustration came at the climax of the story. Like most romances, it had to come down to the big decision, the happily ever after. It was a hot and sexy night. But, when you read a story with fairly deep characters and back stories, there is always the danger of the reader picking the wrong guy to "win" as it were. In my case, wrong guys. I didn't want her to pick the one true love, I wanted a nice open relationship with the occasional other lover wandering on in. I wanted all three. But, it appears to devolved into a heterosexual pairing. It ended up being less Three Little Pigs and more of the Three Bears: one too hot, one too cold, one just right (in the ass).Other than not having foursomes for the rest of the main character's life, I enjoyed this greatly and would recommend it to anyone.
