PLEASE, let there be a part three!!! What happens to the children as the grow up together in the 60's? How do they adjust to the relationship of three parents during the normalized 50's and 60's of two parent households.

I have thoroughly loved both books!!!! Listened to both of them in two days!!!!!!

Lamont and Jack were two characters from Sweet Honesty that I didn’t know if I would like based on their behavior in the previous book. Lamont couldn’t own his truth and led Vickie on, and Jack wanted to force Alex into relationship that he didn’t want. When Lamont ended up at Jack’s house, it was the best decision ever. Watching the growth in both Lamont and Jack was beautiful. We got to find out their traumas and fears, which added a heart-aching perspective. The addition and evolution of their mutual friendship and love for Vickie and each other was a bird’s eye view into polyamory and how love works in human form when it is real, kind and patient. Another wonderful story and dynamic narration.

Love is patient

I love how delicately and intentionally the author handled each character. My favorite thing about this book is how everything progressed at an even pace. I love all of the intimacy and tender moments. I love how they chose each other, even at the risk judgement and rejection. I am so happy that the judgement and rejection didn't overwhelmingly overshadow their love for one another and their love story. This was such a sweet story. It was also sweet how the middle spoon depended on who needed it the most. This was a wonderful read that gave me absolutely everything I needed in a romance novel.

The tender moments are everything!
