![]() ![]() ![]() Review: I have mixed feelings about this book. *This is an MMM romance with mild D/s play and mild daddy kink (NO age play) Between the infuriatingly sexy drummer with no idea what kind of trouble he’s asking for, and my ex looking better than ever, there’s no way this isn’t about to get messy. When my ex calls and tells me he’s desperate for my help, I can’t turn him down. Which is probably why I’m the best in the business when it comes to getting out of control celebrities back on track. Unfortunately, he’s also the man I let get away sixteen years ago and haven’t gotten over since.Ĭontrol is kind of my thing. There’s only one man I can think of who might be able to get Jude back on the right track, Bennett. But it’s obvious I haven’t done a great job because they’re falling apart. With the three of us cooped up together for weeks on end, I have a feeling things might get interesting.ĭownward Spiral is my baby. ![]() I’m in a downward spiral…see what I did there? When the band manager, Archer, hires Bennett to keep me from screwing up while the band is on hiatus, I may have finally met someone who won’t take my attitude lying down. As for the rest of you, this is a good story to try this trope for the first time.īlurb: Bennett’s firm hand is everything I need…except maybe Archer’s gentle touch. At a Glance: I think that fans of m/m/m are going to enjoy this story a lot, so I’ll highly recommended it to them. ![]()
