 Hottest Book I have read in a long time April 23, 2006
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
Fireman Drew Smyth loves his job. The one drawback is being near hospitals, but it seems that this visit to the ER after a nasty fire just might be the best visit he has ever had. Drew comes face to face with a new resident on staff and wants to know more. Drew finds himself without a ride home, but luckily the doctor treating him is officially off duty and offers Drew a ride home. It is then that Drew offers the doctor a beer and they begin to talk.
Dr. Scott Campbell doesn't realize that by offering Drew a ride home his life will change. Scott comments on Drew's house and mentions wanting to move to another place. Scott is surprised when Drew invites him to live there. Together they come up with a plan, schedules, everything they need to be good roommates. There is one thing that the two of them don't discuss, and it is their attraction to each other. Months pass and Drew is at his wits end. He wants Scott and feels deep in his heart that Scott wants him as well. Writing a suggestive invitation on a piece of paper, Drew is ecstatic when Scott immediately comes over to him. The two come together in an explosion of passion that refuses to burn out. Totally in love with each other, the two men try to keep their work separate from their personal life. Eric, an EMT needs a new place to stay in the worst way. One night playing poker, Scott and Drew offer their home to Eric. Eric finds out that Scott and Drew are together and have been for years. Eric accepts the place to stay, but finds it harder and harder to deal with the attraction he feels for both Drew and Eric. What Eric doesn't realize is that Scott and Drew feel the same way about him. Things come to a head when Eric tells the couple of his plans to move out. It seems that Eric can't stay there any longer and not act upon his attraction. His plans are halted when Scott and Drew come clean about their desires.
911 by Chris Owen has to be one of the hottest books I have read in a long time. Full of sexual tension at the beginning, Chris Owen takes the reader on a sensual journey that I didn't want to end. As for the three main characters, I fell in love with each of them. Drew's zest for life and his loyalty to Scott made my heart sing. Scott's love and faith in Drew was without restrictions and absolute. Eric was my favorite. Unsure of himself, he quickly became meshed with Scott and Drew and completed them. 911 by Chris Owen exceeded all of my expectations when I started to read. I know for certain that I now have to read everything by Chris Owen and can't wait to get started!

 Three = Perfection May 29, 2006

There is a reason many cultures and religions use the number three to represent totality, balance, harmony. Chris Owen has written another powerful book in "911". As someone who has always believed strongly in polyamory, as a fundamental way to share the joy and strength that comes from truly loving, I found this story delightful and affirming. Each character grows throughout the book, opens up to the others to expose his own weaknesses, and learns to accept the unconditional love that still demands honesty. The end of the book seems rather rushed, but it also makes sense that the three men can actually tackle their final mutual challenge together, and quickly.
Unfortunately, Torquere Press seems to have a quality assurance problem. There are numerous typographical errors and even character slip-ups, which a careful editor or proofreader should have caught. So, the publishing knocks one star off - but Chris delivers a great read!
Thanks again!
A good one from Owen. May 14, 2006

Like all his fans, my first taste of the writer's effort is the sizzling and emotional "Bareback", which prompt me to secure the rest of Owen's e-books. To my dismay there are not many.
I love the first part of "911", Scott my favorite character, but am put off in the second part by the ideal of a "threesome". I do not mind the boys making it out with the consensus of his partner but guess I am still too prudish to be comfortable with the idea of a permanent "threesome" instead of a couple. The fact that Eric is a nice guy did not help and I found myself wishing he would leave the boys alone and pair off with James.
That aside, Owen's writing is just great. Just wish he will write at a faster pace. Oh yes I do love his latest effort, the short but lovely "Carbon & Ash" available now in Torquerepress.com.
Was Three a Crowd? January 2, 2007
I am a fan of Chris Owen, so I could not wait to read 911. However, the addition of Eric to principle players (Drew and Scott) did not sit well with me. Chris did such a wonderful job in establishing the Drew (hot fireboy) and Scott (cute doctor) love story, that Eric's (sexy blond) addition seemed to take away from Drew and Scott. In fact, it seemed to become the Eric and Drew story, which made me sad. It wasn't until Drew was badly injured, that Scott's importance to Drew (and Eric) was acknowledged.
I'm not a prude, and have no issues with three-somes. However, I do feel that principle players need to be remembered. Author Sean Michaels is good in remembering principle players (Rock and Rig), even though they opened their hearts and home to a third ("Pretty", as he is called by Rig). Maybe the author was trying to portray that Drew, Scott, and Eric all loved equally, and I just didn't get it.
I gave the book 4 stars because of the set-up love story of Drew and Scott, but will be cautious of other three-somes by Chris.
911 by Chris Owen April 14, 2008
This is one of hottest manlove books I've ever read. And it's not just M/M. It's M/M/M. Yes, *three* sexy men in love, having sheet-scorching sex...not to mention a sweet, tender, and surprisingly believable three-way relationship. A fireman, a doctor, and an EMT. It just doesn't get any hotter than that. When you do read it, make sure you have a bucket of ice and a change of clothes handy. Better yet, find your own sexy fireman or doctor to play with. :)
Okay, enough about the sex. The sex is insanely hot, but what really stands out to me is the chemistry and the realistic presentation of a working threesome of men. It's rare for an author to be able to write a love story between three men that's not just erotic, but actually believable. This story makes me believe that such a relationship is entirely possible.
The men...ohhh, the men...they are strong, sexy, sensitive, and completely wonderful. I just can't find a negative word to describe this book or its characters.
I will definitely read this one again. It's a keeper. More brilliant M/M romance by Chris Owen.
