This was it. The beginning. Their beginning.
Sarina opened her door, where Lydia awaited with a bright, happy grin. Loyal Lydia who hadn’t batted an eyelash when Sarina informed her that Liam was moving into the bedroom on the opposite side of hers. Or when Sarina had asked her to consult with McGann over the servants, their discretion, and which ones tended to gossip and needed to be replaced.
It didn’t take a genius to know that Sarina’s bedroom was now bracketed by her lovers. However, neither McGann nor Lydia seemed concerned with such a scandalous prospect.
The raise she’d given each of them probably hadn’t hurt, either.
Money well spent.
Lydia helped her out of her dress and into a chemise, fancier and lacier than those she wore beneath her gowns. She felt graceful and just slightly shameless in it, as if the lace and ribbons added to the elegance of the setting.
As if she wasn’t about to make love to two men.
Sarina pushed that aside. She felt no shame—she loved them and they both loved her. Looking back now, she realized she’d have been unhappy if she had chosen only one man. Maybe she wasn’t a woman who could only love one but needed two men, two extraordinary men in her life and in her bed.
It also helped that they were already the best of friends.
“Thank you, Lydia,” Sarina said, and her lady’s maid gave another broad grin and hastily left.
Sarina didn’t have to wait long before her husband entered. Right behind him, Liam strode in. In her head, and more importantly in her heart, both men were her husband. She’d need to school herself so as not to slip in public, but it was enough both men knew the truth of her heart.
“The wedding this morning,” Sarina began as she sat on the bed in her lacy white chemise. “It was for those outside this household. It was to create the mask of propriety. But now…this is different.”
She licked her lips and watched her lovers. Undressed down to their robes, they moved across the room with a sensuality that made her ache. Now that she had them again, she’d never let them go.
“Yes, it is,” Liam agreed. He held out his hand for her and pulled her gently into his arms. Turning her around so she stood between them, he held one hand while Prescott took the other. “This is the truth for us.”
Prescott kissed her temple and took her other hand. “Tonight begins our future.”
Her heart skipped and she grinned. Sarina took a deep breath, the scent of both men strong and comforting against her. She squeezed their hands, her fingers twined with theirs.
“Liam, Prescott,” Sarina started, looking at both men in turn. “I vow to you both my love and devotion. I take you as my husbands, equal in my heart. I know—” Her voice caught and she stopped.
Happiness filled her and she blinked back tears. One slipped down her face and Prescott caught it, his fingers infinitely gentle. The fingers of Liam’s other hand rested against the side of her throat, and she used their touch to steady herself.
“I know it could not have been an easy thing to realize I could not choose,” she continued in a steadier voice. After all, this was exactly what she’d wanted. “Or that you both had feelings for me…”
“It was not,” Liam offered in the silence that followed. “But somehow Prescott and I both knew that this, tonight, could be a reality for all of us.”
“Our friendship,” Prescott added with a nod to Liam. “It enabled our relationship to happen and I give you both my vow of honor, love, and devotion.”
“As do I.” Liam took the ring from the side table, one that came in three equal parts, and placed it on Sarina’s finger. “My wife.”
She stood on tiptoe and pressed her lips to his. “My husband.” Turning to Prescott, she pressed her lips to his, her legal husband, and smiled. “My husband.”
Prescott deepened the kiss, soft and gentle, and restrained. She tasted the love in his touch and the pent-up need that he’d kept in check for these last weeks. Harder and deeper, his lips moved over hers and his tongue swept across hers, tasting her as if he’d never get enough.
Sarina felt Liam’s mouth press firm kisses along the back of her shoulders, his teeth nipping the sensitive skin. She arched against him, wound her arms around Prescott and tangled her fingers in his hair.
Hands slipped beneath her chemise, cool on her heated flesh, and Sarina shuddered. Already her body ached to feel them inside her, so wound with tension she thought she’d scream. A hand found her breast, a brush over her nipple, and Sarina did gasp, tore her mouth from Prescott’s and whimpered.
She pushed at the heavy robe Prescott wore, uncaring where it dropped to the floor, suddenly desperate to feel skin against skin. Turning, Sarina did the same to Liam, ran her fingers over his strong arms, his chest. Prescott tugged her chemise over her head and tossed it out of their way.
One of them lifted her to the bed—it didn’t matter who. They were both hers. She wanted to taste each man in turn and reacquainted herself with the way Prescott’s hand tangled in her hair as she kissed over his cock. Or the way Liam’s words turned into a harsh moan of her name as she did the same to him. Sarina wanted to take her time, wanted to draw out this night, their first as husbands and wife; she craved them.
Liam’s hands settled on her hips and spread her to his mouth. Prescott’s teeth closed over her nipple. But she was already so close, her arousal so close to tipping her over.
“Now,” she begged. “I can’t wait any longer. I need you both now.”
Hands caressed her, over her belly, her hips, her thighs. Caressed and aroused even further. She loved them both, individually, but with the three of them like this, wrapped around each other, it was a love she couldn’t describe, and she felt whole and limitless at the same time.
Liam stretched behind her, and she heard the faint sounds of him reaching to the night table. The scent of lemon oil filled the room and Sarina shuddered. Her body clenched in anticipation and yes, oh yes, she wanted this.
She lifted her leg over Prescott’s, her mouth back on his in a frenzied clash of tongue and teeth. Wrapping her fingers around his cock, she guided him into her.
“Sarina.” His jaw clenched and he stilled the instant he filled her.
“Close,” she panted, not entirely certain she said it aloud. “Prescott.” Turning her head she saw Liam, his blue eyes stormy and dark as he watched her, his slippery fingers on her rear entrance, circling her, teasing her.
“Liam,” she begged, arching back. “Please. Please. Please.”
He filled her with one hard thrust, and Sarina’s world went white. Her orgasm crashed over her like a storm, dangerous and wild and oh so perfect. She cried their names, thought she did, met each of their thrusts, that rhythm only the three of them shared.
She heard her name fall from Liam’s mouth, his teeth sinking into her shoulder as he found his release, and she welcomed the pain, the grip of his fingers on her hip. Close, there again her orgasm tightened and tightened around her and hands—Liam’s or Prescott’s, she didn’t know—found her nub.
With one final hard thrust, Prescott shouted her name as he climaxed and she cried out again, keeping her men in her as she rode through the climax.
Exhausted, she felt them slip from her body only to return to her in seconds. They wrapped their arms around her, fingers soft on her skin as they lay there, utterly sated. When she could move again, Sarina kept her eyes closed and kissed first one, then the other. Held them both closer.
“I love you. Both of you. So very much.”

Seduction of my Proper Wife
“I’ll admit that while I am not an avid reader of girl on girl loving, this book and the scenes between the women were very sexy and sensual while being meaningful. I really enjoyed the relationship between the two, and then when Phillip came into the picture the dynamic changed yet remained the same. I think the author did a really good job of that. When the three were engaged with each other, you could feel the heat come off the page! Wow! The love scenes had an urgent, almost frantic tone to them. I’m not sure if it was intentional or not, but it worked.”
