Mountain Desire

Oh boy! This book started with a scene that was so awkward that I laughed until I cried! It was just a foreshadowing of how much I'd enjoy this book! My emotions ran the gamut while reading, from hilarity, to shock, surprise, and even a little anger. There was so much packed into this story, I'm not sure where to start! Sam is a doctor, but she is also a genius! Breezing through school, then college and med school, she missed so many of the life experiences someone her age has. It makes her a very naive person, but also seems to have made her more open to accepting her own desires and wants. Mac and Hardin know what they want, they just have to figure out how to make her theirs, and then how to keep her from being ripped away from them. I love a little mystery and excitement with my romance, and this book has all of that, and more. I love how open Sam is, and how accepting of her eccentricities the guys are. The heat between them is combustible, and then just gets hotter! I love how there is a story line to each book in the series, but also a mystery that is continued through out. Definitely makes the anticipation for the next book sweeter!

★ Such a sexy meet-cute/ Another smoking addition this series★ —>>> Meeting Dr Samantha Smyth was quite timely for Mac, aside from them getting their wires crossed when they first meet, because the reason he was at the hospital in the first place was to help her with her tires. But it is soon apparent that he and his best friend Hardin would be perfectly willing to pull out all the stops to service her any way she needs … and are just as willing to step up when it is clear she is being targeted by someone in town, someone intent on doing her harm. Another smoking addition to this Mountain Desire series!

EITHER YOU LET US IN, OR YOU LET US GO Book three in the Wild Mountain Men series adds several new people, including the three main people, new to town, Dr. Samantha Smyth, then friends, Mac and Hardin. While this story might be read as a stand-alone, it will have many people from the previous two books, and also plenty of mention of the unsolved murder of Erin Mills--an ongoing case in Cutthroat. Dr. Sam Smyth picked the area of Cutthroat to practice medicine from a visit to the area with her parents when she was younger. It is known for its resorts and skiing, and she decided it was a good place to live and work. She has an apartment and works long hours at the hospital between the ER and the operating room. She really doesn’t have friends, doesn’t date, and is dealing with one of the doctors who has asked her out numerous times and has repeatedly made advances, which HR has ignored. Mac and Hardin will be called to the hospital by security for a tow when one of the doctor's cars has a flat. Sam will be sent to see a patient in the ER for a prostate exam and encounter Mac—and this scene had me laughing out loud. But when all is straightened up, she will learn about her tire, and that it wasn’t just flat but slashed. Sam isn’t used to people being helpful or doing the right thing, but when they come to her defense over a pushy coworker, she is surprised. “She slayed me. Done. Dead. She was actually surprised I’d help her. Hadn’t anyone stood up for her before? Yeah, she needed a guiding hand, and we were going to give it to her. And more.” From the moment Mac and Hardin see Dr. Sam, they both know she is the one, the one they have been waiting for, the one to share between them. The only issue, this young doctor has a naïve innocence about her, and that is surprising. Then to verify that this beauty is a virgin, and now she wants them has them with mixed emotions. After dinner out, she has had too much to drink, and when they have her because they will have her, they want her completely sober. When these three do get together, they allow Sam to make the moves, and she surprises them. These three have great chemistry together, no judgments, no demands, just plenty of sizzling passion and pleasure. “It’s more than biological, baby. It’s because it’s right.” “They had been holding back. This was wild and dark, completely naughty. Mac began to talk then. Dirty talk, which only made me get wetter, and I could hear it.” The story has mystery, suspense, danger, angst, anger, passion, a stalker, and the unsolved murder case of Erin Mills. When her apartment has been broken into, the detectives are the ones to make the connection that she favors the late Erin Mills? Could she now be the target of a murderer? How will Mac and Hardin keep her safe? What happens when they discover who has been harassing her at work? Will words of warning steer him away—or make him more dangerous? The story is a continuation of the murder case and the beginning of a new triad relationship and does end on another cliffhanger. There are explicit sex scenes that include ménage and mild spanking.
