Today’s treat is a mini-review of a book I just finished and
absolutely loved—Tessie Bradford’s “Megan’s Men”. Yes I’m biased and Tessie and
I are good friends, but I read this book with eyes wide open and enjoyed as if
I’d didn’t know what a lovely person Tessie was.
I’ve enjoyed all of Tessie books but Megan’s Men is my
favorite to date. Tessie has taken her writer’s voice further and created a rich
Sci-fi ménage romance that features three terrific men and one really lucky
woman.
Here’s the Blurb: “Megan’s
Men”
Megan
Lynch has had a very bad year. Her husband took off with most of their assets
and a twenty year old bimbo. She lost her job and has nowhere to live.
Accepting a management position at a research facility on a distant planet was
supposed to be the first step to a new start. But now her transport has been
cancelled indefinitely. She’s stranded, exhausted, defeated, and utterly pissed
off.
Garfor,
Rork and Loban came to Earth for a one day trading mission. Finding their woman
alone and upset in the travel port is both a blessing and extremely upsetting.
She is unfamiliar with their ways, and Garfor is forced to use deceit to get
her onto their ship and off the planet. With only a few days to convince her
she is destined to be theirs forever, all three men are more than willingly to
rise to the challenge.
Review:
I found myself hooked from the first page by Megan’s
dilemma. Megan’s in the middle of a major life change. She taken a job on
another planetoid sight unseen and risked everything to leave behind a personal
life that hasn’t gone so well. She immediately, and naively finds herself in a
dangerous situation in a space travel port that she believes is merely an
inconvenience. She gets bumped from a legitimate space liner and is reassigned
to a shadowy cargo ship that carries more risk than she realizes. Megan doesn’t
have enough space-faring experience to ask the right questions and seems to be walking
straight into a human trafficking type of ordeal.
Just as things are really going sour she’s almost gets run
down in the spaceport as well. Thank god for the quick reflexes and timely
intervention of a prince-like Mr. Tall-dark-and-handsome, who steps in and
saves Megan from physical harm. Garfor of the House of H’oug is a gorgeous
warrior who scoops Megan into his arms and enlightens her about her true
situation.
Megan is shocked to discover a respected space liner would
throw a lone woman, such as herself under the bus. She’s also unsettled to be
experiencing an instant attraction and feelings of lust and trust for a man who
appeared out of nowhere. The moment Megan and Garfor touch a mate bond that was
meant to be begins to unfold. Garfor doesn’t even try to hide it and Megan is
left confused and intrigued by the strength of his presence.
It’s no surprise that Garfor won’t allow Megan to naively
board a slave ship. He takes charge of Megan and her luggage and leads her
aboard his luxurious space ship along with a little white lie. Megan thinks
she’s getting express service to her destination, but Garfor has a few
surprises in store. Megan isn’t going straight to the planetoid she has
accepted a job on. She headed to Garfor’s home plant as his bonded mate and
guess what else? Garfor is a Slaterine man and Slanterine men mate in quads—three
committed men and one lucky woman. Megan boards Garfor’s ship and meets two
other gorgeous men Rork and Loban, who are surprised and delighted Garfor has
brought a life mate home for them all to share…
Now do I have your attention? This is a very hot book! For
your comfort and safety do not read Megan’s Men while seated on combustible
materials or near an open flame. Rork and Loban are just as interesting as
Garfor and have distinct personalities and conflicts of their about concealing
facts from Megan. They had my sympathy too. My god these poor guys have a lot
at stake and they only have a brief window of time to convince Megan of the
glory that is polyamory. If you love
romance this is a yummy romance. If like ménage this is really hot. If you love
a happy ending here’s a very ending for, four deserving people. If you’ve
always dreamed of having a big family… never mind I won’t spoil it for you.
I highly recommend Tessie Bradford’s “Megan’s Men” available July 31st from Resplendence Press.
