 Definately a Pleasure September 11, 2007
7 out of 9 found this review helpful
At first I didn't realized that there were 3 stories. The book started out with "What she wants" with Kit in the middle of two awesome guys, Ryder and Mac. I fell in love with Ryder right away because I love those carefree dominate male alpha type of guys. Guys who don't wear his emotions on his sleeves. Those guys who you trust to stand behind you and hold you tight through rough times but yet doesn't overcrowd you. I adore Ryder way more then Mac. Mac would be the type of guy who would suffocate me with his over emotional feelings. When "What She Wants" ended, I was mad, disappointed, sad. I didn't really want to continue but I was already in the zone of reading. Thank goodness I read! "What She Needs" was such an emotional roller coaster for me. I "awwed" and I smiled, then I cried. I understand Kit so much better in this one then in "What she Wants". "What she Needs" was definately the right ending. Ryder is the type of hero I want to keep reading about.
Mia appeared in "What She Needs" as a friend of Ryder. I adored her right away and knew she was a vulnerable girl. I can't say I adore her own story "What she Craves" all that much. It's a good story tho.
All in all, the girls were sweet, the men were hot (even Mac and Jack), and the scenes were even hotter! "What she Needs" is the only reason why this book recieved a 5 stars from me. Without it, I would give it a 3.

I loved reading this book so much that I finished it in two sittings. I did the first two stories at once (since they're connected) then hobbled out of bed (I read in an awkward position and ended up hurting my back for three days... that's book love, right there) for a break and finished the third.
I loved the emotion and tension and I'm sucker for stories where the hero (or heroes as the case may be) have to save the heroine from emotional danger as well as physical.
This book reaffirmed what I already knew, I love Maya Banks. She's my new fav.
 Fatal flaw. Scared woman likes bondage after being raped. August 11, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
First I want to say that I do think Maya Banks is a great writer of sexually romantic scenes. But in this book, specifically the first part where Kit has two lovers and she discovers she likes bondage sex with them, it has a fatal flaw for me. It just might be only me, but I didn't buy the fact that she liked bondage after going through such a horrific rape, and still scared to death because the rapist is unknown and still out there. I just don't buy it. Also why would the two guys who love her and want to care for her put her though bondage knowing what she went through? That is why I rated it a three. That said I do like her writing style and the way she blended three stories into one book. I personally think Maya doesn't need to put bondage in her stories, and she can write some great sexual tension and tricks without it. If you're into a little bondage, I suggest Maya Banks "Sweet Surrender", where the story of a woman exploring bondage is a little more believable. If you're not into submission and bondage, don't read either of them.
A Really Great Book June 15, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Great story, great strong alpha males, great sex. What more could a woman want? Its one of those rare books that grip you from begining to end, it really pulls you into the story and you become emotionally involved. Thank you Maya, its another winner. I loved it. There is some great reading about at the moment, check out 100 Percent Erotica and Wild, Wicked, & Wanton (Berkley Heat) Both great reads.
Good beginning, but... April 7, 2008

This book seemed to start out pretty well. It was steamy, well written, basic story line but that's to be expected with these kinds of books. About half way through I became frustrated with the lead female character, she becomes slobbering, weak, needy, clingy, and annoying. Why do they always need to complicate things with marriage and pregnancy? The story would have been better without it, as well as better without her playing these two men. All in all, the sex scenes were pretty good, but the story is kind of lacking towards the end.
