"Colors Of Love" [Speed Series, Book 2] by Jess Dee

My Book Summary : Seth, the youngest member and the guitarist of the rock band Speed, has been the lover to Luke, Speed's manager, for the past five years. He is so in love with Luke, and feels that Luke loves him just as much, that he wants to turn their relationship into a committed monogamous one. However, Luke is still dealing with demons from his past that he has always been afraid will come up and break them apart. Therefore, Luke decides that it's time to break off the relationship that he has with Seth. To do so Luke would like to find the perfect person for Seth so that when Luke walks away Seth will already have someone else he's in love with to turn too.

Hence, when Luke meets Karen (Kaz) at one of Speed's concerts he immediately thinks that she is perfect for Seth. So, he brings Kaz into a threesome with him and Seth. Their sexual encounters are hot and steamy, leaving them all very happy, up until Luke makes his plan to break off from the group. Will Kaz be able to help these two men she's come to care about heal old wounds and complete their relationship? Or will Luke get away with his plans after all?

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars, it's about what it takes to be truthful to yourself while coming to terms with what is holding you back. This is the first time I've read a ménage romance where only two-people end up together by the end of the novel where all three of the people involved are happy about it. Which was a surprise to read, and I was a bit disappointed since I wanted them all to work out together, yet I enjoyed that everyone was pleased with the circumstances that took place and everything ended. I really liked Kaz, Luke, and Seth, especially since all their mixed personalities equaled them all out.

I recommend this novel to anyone who has read "See You In My Dreams," to anyone who enjoys ménage and/or M/M romances, and to those who like reading erotic romances about rock stars!!

Book Teaser(s) :

Besides, she couldn’t seem to drag her feet away from him. Plus, she wanted answers.
“Later?” she asked him.
He drew back to look at her in confusion.
“You said you’d answer my question later.”
The twinkle was back in his eye. “I will. I’ll answer all your questions. Because believe me, by then you’re going to have more than just one.”
What the...? What else was there to ask? “Mate, the concert’s about to begin. There isn’t going to be a later.”
He looked at her with eyes as liquid and enticing as melted chocolate. “Yeah, there will be. After the concert.” ~ within Chapter 3

For now, she wanted only to feel. To escape. Her life outside of this suite was complicated, needed fixing. Just for tonight, she didn’t want to think about that. Didn’t want to work on her problems. Just for tonight she wanted to take the escape route Jordan and Luke so generously offered.
“Jordan,” Luke said. “We may have a problem.”
Kaz’s heart stuttered.
“What’s that?” Jordan asked.
Luke let his gaze sweep over her body and catch on the jeans that perched on her thighs. “The woman has too many clothes on.”
With a soft laugh, Jordan stood behind her once again and finished undressing her. ~ within Chapter 6
