A Delicious Taboo
by Jennifer Cole
Calen Maxwell and Van Dansk are committed to each other, but want to
add Melanie Drake for their third. Unfortunately, their equally
committed friends Philip and Jake have the same idea. When Melanie
realizes Calen and Van are watching her, wanting her, she’s turned on.
But as Jake and Phillip begin to tease her libido as well, it plays
havoc with her lust and desire. She’d always assumed her infatuation was
one sided. Still, that doesn’t stop her from secretly lusting after the
group of friends. After a night of drinking at the gay/bi club where
Melanie works, the guys ask her to pick which pair she’d like to go home
with. At first, she thinks they’re kidding. She’d love to take them up
on their offer, but how could she choose between one couple when she
wants both? She views their attention as bartender/customer and nothing
more. They’re four gay men in a relationship, and gay men aren’t
interested in hooking up with a straight plain Jane woman. Or are they?
When I decided to read this book I wasn’t sure if I would like it, but
Jennifer Cole proved me wrong. She’s crafted a beautiful love story. The
attraction between the characters leaps off the pages. The tenderness
the men showed towards Melanie as they become to understand the
childhood torture she endured tugged at my heart. I think the author has
done a wonderful job and the ending is splendid! I would definitely say
this is a book worth reading more than once.
