As good as the first one this novel is going on my favorites shelf. I am still in love with Liam just as much and he is one of the best Dom's I've read in fiction. All three characters grow here and discover and learn. The pace is slow but weaving three stories instead of 2 really demands that. There is much communication in this one, although some of it is when prompted and forced, but that's very true to life. None of us wants to reveal everything to everyone (momma' always said keep a little mystery and you keep the spark!). All three characters end up asking the same question the reader does - can this threesome be a forever thing?Austin and Jay realize much sooner than Liam that the relationship will fizzle if they don't move forward and develop as three instead of two. Austin and Jay's relationship continues to be strong - nigh on unbreakable. Liam still feels like an outsider and, realistically, I'm not sure who would not. I think this hits on a core issue with 3 - and is something I look to be addressed in my menage reads. I don't read too many menage and now you know why. It always seems someone is superfluous. That is not the case here though, at different times, a duo performs better. That they are starting to really realize this is critical to the health and growth of the relationship.I liked the amount of communication here including the misses because it allowed them to become more.The BDSM scenes were amazing - the balance was perfect, implements were wonderful, and each sub's unique personality gave this one a different flavor - meaning what Jay and Austin want is very different. To be honest I agree with Liam that Austin is tougher because letting him be more service oriented means Liam relying on someone else -- that's tough with him. Jay's need for more pain, more tests, just more - in a way - is easier to meet because it can be planned for and implemented - and Liam likes that.I was hoping for the scene near the end and I gave a shrill scream when it showed up. It was great.I hope we get to see more of these three in the future!
