What is it with the Colters that makes me keep coming back for more?

By all accounts, this whole series is... too much. I mean, three brothers with one wife. Then they have four kids. Then their three sons find the one woman to marry. And, their daughter is in BDSM marriage. Not to mention all the drama that went on. OTT, no doubt about it. But, still...

There's something in the way these stories are told that makes them warm, emotional and unleashes the craving to know more. Even though it was so obvious, just reading the blurb, what exactly will happen in Colters' Promise, I still liked it.
Weird, huh?

~ Becs ~ Whattt???? 3 brothers, 1 wife? Are they Mormons? Is it menage?

So is this a BDSM style novel?


Rain Hart LOL! Two generations of 3 brothers-1 wife, believe it or not. It's menage, alright. :)

No, Becs, the only BDSM novel in this series is Colters' Daughter. The others are just a menage thing.

~ Becs ~ Holy crap - and there it is masquerading under such an innocent cover.

I don't think I've ever read Maya Banks although she does sound like my kind of writer but I'm not sure about the brothers in bed together. Sounds a bit ick.


Rain Hart Well, there is that saying "don't judge a book by its cover". More than appropriate in this case! :)

Maybe you could try reading Colters' Daughter as a stand-alone? Or go for the Sweet series instead?

~ Becs ~ I've been eyeing up the Sweet Series for a while - I'm definitely going to get to those one day.

LOLOLOL, Becs!

The story of the fathers was the first menage I read and I loved it. I share Rain feelings.


Rain Hart I just can't figure out what is it with this series that is freaking people out so much? Well, at least the ones that are used to reading erotica.
I suppose it's emotional enough to keep me going, no matter the OTT factor.

Becs, you should definitely give Maya Banks a try.

Glamdring, don't know about you, but I seriously wished I could take at least Adam and Ryan home, after reading the first story. :)

Erika 3 in 1?! Ooh my gah. As if female population is smaller than male.

Maybe it's the incest Rain??? Soz - only kidding!

Erika - m/m/m/f has gotta be better than f/f/f/m, right??

Since we are facing with the smaller male population in my country (or so it seems), I'm sure I'd feel a lot better if it were the other way around. :)

LOL! No incest, Becs. That would be just too too much! :)

"Erika - m/m/m/f has gotta be better than f/f/f/m, right?? "

I agree. Wholeheartedly! :D

I think so Becs, 3f1m is not good for the growth rate of world's population. It's gonna be very crowded...

Exactly, Rain!

Becs, as Rain said the smexe scenes are hot and emotional and in book 2 the relationship between the 3 fathers and their 4 children is really beautiful and sometimes funny. That said, I have a friend who loves menage stories and Maya Banks but she won't read that series because they are brothers.

Baba  Nice review, Rain! Well, you liked it and that's great. Just not for me though. :-)

The whole brother thing does weird me out but I haven't read it so I can't really judge. I'm not a massive fan of menage books although I've read a few.

Thanks, Babs! I have a special place in my heart for Colters, can't help it. :)
Agreed - this is definitely not for you. :)
