And it's good one. 3.5 out of 5. From Rainbow reviews...on my menage short story Grains of Paradise, just out last month from Torquere Press.

And for the Link-phobic:
I enjoyed this quick look into an unplanned menage that turns into much more than any of the participants expected. Vince is riding his Harley out for a solo day at the beach but is captivated by Jake and Maggie, out for a day on their own Harley. The bondage and slave paraphernalia Maggie is wearing are just too much for Vince to pass by without stopping to admire ~ closely.
To each of their own astonishment, Vince is invited to join married Jake and Maggie on their day of public bondage and quickly takes over the scene. Jake is surprised to find himself in a sub role and Maggie is surprised to find that she is as turned on by Jake in a sub role as she is by Vince in a Dom role.
Vince takes both Jake and Maggie into a public whipping and sex scene that is pretty scorching. In the mean time, he also seems to imprint on Jake and Maggie. Neither is sure of where they stand in the universe once the scene is over. Vince must step up or step out to help calm the suddenly lost couple.
This was a very hot BDSM story. Lots of toys, a lot of strong domination and with the girl thrown in, just a touch of emotion that may not come through had it just been the boys. It would have been a stronger story if both Vince and Jake stayed truer to character. Although Vince is a tough Dom for Jake and Maggie, the beginning of the book sets him up to be something of a henpecked boyfriend who allowed his girlfriend to throw away all of his BDSM toys at one time. And Jake starts off a strong Dom type with Maggie but soon caves to the sub side. The switches were done smoothly but they weaken the story. Even with this small problem it was a fun read.
A good review. I don't agree with her saying that it was weakened by Jake subbing. I thought that was the fun bit, honestly. But hey, it's a good review!
