Beth's Acceptance. Tracy Cooper-Posey.ARC supplied by Netgalley.I've read a few of Tracy's novels now - most recently the wonderful Romani Armada, and know that she's a writer who can put the sex into sexy! Tracy's sex scenes are hot and erotic, sensuous and sultry, spicy without being overly graphic or full of weird coy terms. This book is no exception.Beth is a mature student, studying and working at two jobs to try and pay her way through uni. She's met Hot blue eyed Luke in the library job, and for weeks until he recently disappeared she'd been having a gentle flirtation with Zach at the café that comprised her other job. Now Zach is back and she's torn between two deliciously hot men, though in truth neither seem to want to take any more concrete steps forward with her. Then Fate steps in, when she learns there's more to both of them than meets the eye, and she's become entangled into something shaped by her destiny that she would never have imagined. But she (wo)manfully steps up to the plate, and bravely accepts she has to be with both of them :) what a chore!The story is short and to the point, where Romani was far longer and thus able to wander off and delve into side tangents this book is succinct and to the point. The truth comes out very quickly, and Beth needs to decide what she wants to do - though in fact there isn't really a choice, apart from having to bond with two deliciously hot and sexy men the dangers after her won't go away of she tries to opt out.The character of Beth is one we can relate to, she's lived and struggled, working to better herself by furthering her education, she's a responsible person and won't let others down. Fortunately she's very sexual too as her experiences are about to get broadened in all sorts of ways !Zach, dark and moody and yet wonderfully sexy, and Luke, just as sexy but all light and humorous, are the perfect foil to Beth. She seems to be the hinge that joins them all, and then when more information about the trio comes out they see that there's a huge crisis coming, and they need to unite two disparate and formerly warring races. Can they do it? Will they survive? Well, there are two more triads to be found that they'll need to help them fight, and I look forward to reading more from Tracy in their books.Beth's Acceptance is the first book in the Destiny's Trinities series:Book 1: Beth's AcceptanceBook 2: Mia's Return (to be released October 4, 2013)Book 3: Sera's Gift (to be released October 18, 2013)Its priced at 1.94 for 107 pages/1066kb and is a hot, erotic, sensual read. One of those where the sex scenes are a turn on, and not ones that make you squirm for the wrong reasons.....sadly too many "erotic" books are like that.Stars: four. A longer book would have been five, that's a personal thing but I find shorter novels don't allow for the depth of story and characters that I love, though many people prefer them of course.
