 Summary:
Romance on the Go

When two in bed isn’t enough, you can always add a third.

This is the adage Candice has kept in the back of her mind since her last threesome, and after months of lackluster sex with her husband, she wants nothing more than to reinstate it. Tired of competing with the television for his attention, Candice feels that after six years of marriage, they might be drawing apart.

That is until Piers sets her up with Trevor, one of their closest friends who also just happens to be a certifiable Dom. What she doesn’t expect to find is her husband acting as a butler let alone participating once Trevor's done with her.

The question is, once play ends, will Candice pick the man she married, or the one who left her back pink from the tails of his flogger?

Be Warned: menage sex (MFM), BDSM (Goodreads)

Review:
The rating for Hanging by a Thread is a struggle between 2.5 and a 3, but I ultimately decided on 2.5 because of the lack of interest I had when it was all done. The synopsis makes this story sound so much better than it really is. At only 38 pages there isn’t enough substance to get emotionally involved. It is a little difficult to follow the flow between the flashback and current time and who everyone is. The current time sex scene was good, but the flashback left the reader hanging and wondering what actually happened.
The idea of a BFF dom instructing his friend on how to best service his wife is a good idea, but this execution didn’t cut it for me. Better luck next time Ms. Lark.
