Laura Kaye's novella "Just Gotta Say" is a story about friendship, love, and wish fulfillment. This is a friends-into-lovers kind of a tale and, I believe, Ms. Kaye's maiden voyage (so to speak) into the world of erotica. And erotic it is, indeed.While this story is mostly sex, whether that be sex as a solo act or with two or more eager participants, this is not just a f-- fest. Ms. Kaye doesn't neglect the relationships between the characters but builds believable friendship and love among them. I appreciated that. This is also not what I might consider a traditional ménage story. But then is there such a thing as "traditional" ménage, anyway, given the unusual nature of such a relationship?The moments of humor in Just Gotta Say had me laughing out loud, and the suspense towards the beginning of the story - would they or would they not catch Callie in the act? - had me squirming in anxious anticipation.Overall, this is a fun and definitely hot little read. I have perhaps enjoyed Ms. Kaye's other work a little more than this one, but it was worth my reading time. And if you enjoy erotic romance, it may very well be worth yours as well.
