...Things between Kate and her two men have been blissful but all that changes when the pressure of the wedding builds, and the reader can't help but get drawn into the emotional turbulence that flows from the pages and threatens Kate's happily ever after with Grant and Daniel. The chemistry is explosive and the sex scenes are scorching including BDSM scenes, but the relationship is on rocky ground due to the volatile emotions and insecurities that come from trying to make a threesome work. These strong compelling characters capture the heart while they strive to overcome the obstacles including Kate's parents. The fast paced, smooth flowing plot builds expectations with suspense, turmoil and passion while the well written scenes and details bring the characters to life and ensure that the reader wants to know their entire story.
This heart gripping tale brings tears to the eyes during a couple of scenes but really shows how things could be tricky trying to handle a ménage lifestyle and ensure that everyone is happy. The story could be read as a standalone but I must say that the story would be more enjoyable if read in sequence for better understanding of the characters.

Daniel, Grant and Kate.... I love these characters. They have such a strong relationship and even though there are rocky times, they stand together.I wanted to hit all of them at some point in this story. Kate, who is usually so strong, I wanted her so much to yell and scream. But, she stayed so timid. Daniel and Grant each had their own insecurities throughout this story and it was good to see that they each wondered how this relationship was going to work - not really whether it was, but how.
This book had great chemistry for me - they all three fit each others desires and needs. They were willing to work with each other rather than demand.
I love Willa's books and this one was no different.

While this book did OKAY as a standalone, I really wish I had read the book prior to it because for me I felt like I was missing bits of the story.
Everyone is running on hot and tense because of the upcoming wedding between Daniel and Kate and the arrival of her very judgmental family.
I connected the most with Daniel. While i thought the scenes between Kate and Grant were hot, I also felt like Daniel was left out and no consideration was given toward him. All the scenes were BDSM and he didn't like that type stuff, but no one stopped to care about that, even Kate. The menage has a lot to work through and I think they were trying but even at the end I felt like it was still based mostly on Kate and Grant and Daniel just sort of got to play along too.
The whole situation with her mother and what ends up happening between them I didn't feel was sincere, not after all the nasty things the woman had said before.
I will say that the naughty scenes were hot as hell and that alone makes me want to pick up more of this author's work, and I think the whole disconnect for me might have came from missing what had happened in the first book.

This is the follow on story to Owned for Christmas – I discovered after I had read it. I was not entirely surprised that there was a previous book, as there are elements of the relationships that are assumed, and might add an extra dimension to the story. However, I enjoyed it as a standalone too.
We join the trio as they prepare for the wedding of two of them. Feelings are running high for each of them, and for quite different reasons. Kate is dreading seeing her somewhat judgmental parents, who are coming from Dallas to the ranch for the wedding. Daniel is not sure how he fits into the relationship, when Grant is her Master. Grant is not marrying her ... but he provides her with pain and submission. And I have to say, she really does like pain – especially for someone who is described as very slight and fragile!
It is an interesting read, with some very hot, although perhaps confused scenes, as we hear their thoughts as the intensity progresses, not just the actions – which is fascinating, but distracting too!
