Product Description

Product Description

All roads lead home when that’s where you’ve left your heart.

Compass Brothers, Book 1

Silas Compton always had his eye on Lucy, the veterinarian’s daughter. He was even content to wait for the girl of his dreams to grow up before getting anywhere near her with his family’s double-edged legacy.

Waiting around led to fooling around with his best friend—and an impulsive eruption of desire that Lucy’s innocent eyes weren’t meant to see. Figuring Compton Pass wasn’t big enough for either the three of them or the pain he’d caused, Silas let loose his tightly reined wanderlust and headed for Alaska.

Ten years later, when an oil rig accident sends him home, he braces himself for the reopening of old wounds. Instead he finds himself in the care—and welcoming arms—of Lucy and Colby, whose marriage has plenty of room for the man they both still love. And forgive with all their hearts.

As things start to unravel at Compass Ranch, Silas must dig deep for the strength to assume his rightful place in the Compton family…and lay the foundation for a future with his lovers. If he can forgive himself.

Warning: This book is overflowing with sexy cowboys who like to saddle up and ride each other as well as the woman of their dreams. The likelihood of becoming addicted to their ranch family is high. With three more stories yet to come, beware. You won’t be able to read just one!

This is one seriously hot book, with both MMF and MFM scenes pretty much from page 1. It's a joint effort by two authors, but I wouldn't have known, though I'm a Marie Harte fan, as this could have been a solo effort, it was so seamless.

Barely out of his teens, Silas Compass, eldest of 4 brothers, loved young Lucy, but deemed her too young and innocent for his needs, so he ended up with his best friend and fellow cowboy, Colby. But of course, Lucy saw and ran away...so did Silas, for 10 years, until he ended up in an accident and needed nursing.

So, he comes home, incapacitated, to find Lucy has appointed himself his very personal nurse, and Colby, now her husband, is his very personal carer/valet type of helper. All three decide that the time is now for them to be a permanent menage. So what follows, is an absolute sex-fest of a tale, with kind of equal participants. It is naughty, it is raunchy, hot, sexy and also pretty unbelievable in how apparently all and sundry is fine with their relationship and is even encouraging of them being openly together.

Of course, I didn't get it for the believeability factor, but for the raunch and the HEA, and it did not disappoint. Did I like the characters? No, not really. Silas was not only a coward 10 years ago, but he'd continued to be a coward, selfish and a 'people-user' until the death of his on/off lover, Red, who'd been encouraging him to come back home. Lucy seemed to want to put Silas first too much, and I was a touch surprised that Colby didn't have an issue with this, but then again, he was clearly beta, not an alpha. Lucy and Colby's relationship didn't really ring true, and she clearly wore the trousers.

The second book in the series was equally good, but book 3 didn't ring true at all, nor was it romantic, nor likeable for me. That one is an erotic novel, not an erotic romance. However, the last, out in March 2012, looks to be excellent.

Silas Compton had always been in love with Lucy, but she was young and he had resisted her waiting for her grow up, but then she catches him with his best friend. Silas decides to leave the ranch and head to work in Alaska.
Ten years later he returns, badly injured from an accident. His best friend and Lucy are now married. He does not not want to interfere in their life. But the feelings he has towards them both is as strong as ever.
I am not a massive fan of ménage a trois genre,but this is well written by two accomplished authors. I was not totally sold on all of the characters, Silas was a bit too overbearing, while Lucy ruled the roost with Colby. Like the other reviewer Roroblu's Mum I found the other characters easy acceptance of the relationship between the three protagonists, a bit unbelievable. But the sex in this was very hot. If you are a fan of this genre this is an excellent read.

Hot Cowboys 11 May 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
My summary of the book - Silas runs away from home when he can't deal with his own feelings. After 10 years of being away he comes back after an accident to be looked after Lucy and Colby. Finally they work out their feelings and start to have what they always wanted.

Thoughts on the characters - Silas comes across emotionally weak as he decides to run away instead of dealing with his feelings but he is strong and controlling when he finally comes home. Both Lucy and Colby are both strong in their own right but are happy to give over control to Silas when they start their relationship. I don't think this makes them weak but stronger as they know what they want and willing to give what they need to to get it.

Thoughts on the writing style - Considering this book is written by two people you can't tell in the writing as it seems seamless and the authors have done a brilliant job writing together and I look forward to reading the rest of the series.

Overall thoughts - Very good sexy hot cowboy book and I just love the sexual scenes between all three characters and it made me hot!!!
