Bear (Donovan), and Ren (Renier) are best friends and soul mates. They share everything. And when Kimber comes back to town, they admit that the same girl captured their hearts years ago, and they want to share her too. But will she agree to let them both love her?

I need to apologize for taking so long to read this because I loved it so much. Bear is so focused, protective and intentional the whole way. He doesn't let anyone take him off his path, or pull him from his mission. He knows his purpose is to love and protect Kimber, and get money with his best friends and he does both with a singlemindedness that is so sexy. I swooned over Bear. 

Ren is the impulsive, funny, hotheaded, stubborn mule I hoped he would be, lol. The way he loves is so fraught with urgency, and I loved that he simply got tired of waiting. He knew his destiny and told Kimber she better fall in line, lol. The road to trust and forgiveness with him and Kimber gave the story some solid emotional weight, as did his promises to Bear and their bond. 

Kimber is the needed balance between the two of them. The way she can affirm Bear and calm Ren, the way she commands their attention and demands what she needs from them--very well done. Kimber leaned into the safety and family she found, but she centered them as well; she was soft, but not passive. She stood up for herself, but could admit to her learning curve of having two lovers/ husbands and submit to being protected. I loved her. And she's living my dream, lol.

The rest of the cast rounded out the story in a great way and the subplot gave the story arc lots of intrigue and impact without taking away from the romance. One of my favorites of the year.
