3.5-4 starsThis was a pretty good story. I liked Rebecca, Kyle and Manny and enjoyed their story.Rebecca is a librarian in New York City. She grew up in a small town with a typical loving family. She moved to New York for her dream job but has been so busy since that she hasn't found time to date much outside of a couple dates to a nice but boring man that lives in her building.Manny and Kyle have been best friends since they were kids. Kyle is the son of a rich family and his mother is a congresswoman for the state of New York. Manny was raised by his mother but she died from cancer and he was left with only his grandmother. Manny and Kyle were always very close so they joined the Marines together and served together. Towards the end of their deployment something happened between them 2 that propelled their friendship in to a relationship. But then when they're busted and there's a threat of court marshal hanging over their heads, Kyle freaks and breaks things off with Manny.Rebecca is just getting home from a business trip that had her away from home for just over a month. She has many troubles getting home and things just get worse when she arrives at home only to find some man in her apartment. She soon finds out that he's the grandson of the woman she was subletting the apartment from. Apparently his grandmother died and left him the apartment. He tried to evict her but couldn't get a hold of her and after a few weeks he moved her stuff out (keeping it safe in storage) and moved himself in. Rebecca is upset but to be honest, if it was me I would have been more pissed than upset because he did not do things the right way. Regardless of whether Manny did right in his actions, Rebecca now is homeless without any friends to stay with or anything. Manny realizes just how bad off he's left Rebecca and offers to let he crash with him until she finds a new place. Rebecca doesn't have a lot of choice and finds herself liking Manny even though their first meeting wasn't the greatest. They start living together and the attraction between them is thick. Manny is still trying to get over Kyle and doesn't feel it's fair to start something with Rebecca when he's still caught up on Kyle but he's too attracted to Rebecca to stay away.Kyle realized he was wrong to break things off with Manny and missed him a lot. He tells his parents that he's gay (which his mother is ok with because of the "gay vote") and then he seeks out Manny. When Kyle approaches Manny, Manny isn't open to taking Kyle back because he knows he'd just be putting himself at risk for more hurt if Kyle left him again. Plus he's seeing Rebecca and is finding there's something special about her that's digging itself a place in his heart right beside Kyle's place in his heart. Manny does get talked in to him and Rebecca coming to a fund raiser the next weekend. During the weekend, Rebecca finds out about Kyle and Manny and isn't upset by it and is even turned on by the relationship between Manny and Kyle. Manny can't accept being attracted to both of them though and it causes some issues. Fortunately, Kyle and Rebecca join forces to show Manny just how good things could be between them all. Once Manny is on board with them all having a menage relationship they start spending as much time together as they can and trying to get settled with each other. Things aren't easy, especially when some jerks make trouble for them and it caused problems with Kyle's Mother's campaign. Things get tough for a bit but Rebecca, Kyle and Manny manage to make it through and end the story starting their HEA.I enjoyed this story very much. I liked Rebecca, Manny and Kyle and overall thought they were good characters. They all made some mistakes but instead of taking down their likability, it just made them more likable and believable for me. I will admit that there were a few points in the beginning of the story that didn't seem realistic (like her reaction when she found out Manny had moved her out of her apartment without notice) but they were mostly small things and as the story progressed the story smoothed out and was very enjoyable. I'd recommend this story. :)
