No matter what else happens, family always has your back.

When the world fell apart, Rowan Callahan knew her dad and sister were waiting for her to come home. Getting from Chicago to Michigan was a hell of a long walk, but nothing would keep her from her family.

Except a few terrifying psychopaths, serious physical injuries, and a couple of gorgeous even more dangerous men hell bent on saving her. Circumstances force Rowan, Graham and Zach to make choices that will alter their lives forever…and when the rubber hit the road, none of them expected the sideswipe life threw at them.

I LOVE post-apocalyptic stories. Strong heroines and ab-so-lutely de-lish alphas are a must. Flash Bang’s story line, characterization and relationships hit all four corners of the page and never stopped running.

Why only a 4 star rating? The heroine’s language was a bit of a turn-off. I’m no prude (a ménage erotica reading prerequisite) but with Rowan being an attorney, I didn’t expect such a disconnect between her intelligence and verbiage. I also had a little trouble with the immediate assumption (driven by gut instinct) the modern world was ending. More detail and passage of time would have supported the theory better.

Flash Bang is a fast-paced action-packed post-apocalyptic ménage romance (can this be a new genre category, please?) that hooks the reader until the last page. I love the premise of Ms. March’s new world and look forward to reading the next book in this series!

In spite of not being my usual literature, what a big boom and a half of a read! And I still don't understand why the crash, bang and wallop of a plane could cause such a horrendous cataclysm but I do know that I was riveted to the book from page one. The plot's originality is unquestionable. The character development is impeccable and has literally left me in awe of this author. How she has managed to get across each and every one of her protagonists' traits is quite a work of art; a detail not to be taken lightly.

The heroine in this unusual story with is sassy, independent, stubborn as an ox and well-trained in the aspect of survival. Among other techniques, her ex military father made sure his two daughters knew one end of a weapon to the other. There's no-one or nothing keeping her in Chicago where she's lived and worked for the last ten years. Far from it, an experience she would rather forget only made her decision to leave easier. In her late twenties, Rowan knows what she needs to do. Run! Destination—home.

There is only one direction to go though and it's not going to be without its difficulties in an ambience of total and utter catastrophe. Fortunately, when she finds herself in a sticky situation, there just happens to be two guys around to save her. If the story was fast-moving before, now it picks up at a page-flipping speed. Now then, how on earth am I going to be able to put into words how these two ex marines and Ro's relationship progresses without letting on? Better I explain the whys and wherefores of an existence I could never imagine. For the privileged few who are able to protect each other from the outside, at all times, there is hope, companionship and a strict but just leadership will make a ranch turned into a fort, impenetrable. No luxuries exist; however, they are self-sufficient and all members have tasks to do which are carried out without foray. Now that you're in the picture, let's get down to the nitty gritty of this story.

Graham and Zach are best buddies who have served in war-zones together. Both retired from the forces, were moving along nicely only to be thrown into an even bigger conflict. Everything was more or less in control until a certain hot-headed gal turns their life upside down and tests their resolve to the limit. Her name—Rowan. She is dead-set on leaving the best thing that has ever happened to her, them. Why? Because she doesn't want to let two very dear people close to her heart down who she knows are waiting for her. Now they have to convince her that not only can they not accompany her as problems are arising on the outside, but she'll undoubtedly be putting her life in danger.

Graham is a man of few words. He has difficulty explaining his feeling and most of the time, relies on Zach to do the groundwork regarding their amorous affairs. Yes, they share! Despite his attitude, for the first time in his life, he finds someone he can envisage having a future with. I found this a tad peculiar since chaos was prevalent. Nevertheless, nothing like living for the day, especially when you've found what he and Zach had.

Zach is completely the opposite to his mate. He knows how to express himself, is considerate and loving. He loves his brother-in-arms, pulls his ears when called for, and wouldn't do anything to hurt him inadvertently. I say this because you have to read to see that not everything is black and white in this extremely scorching hot novel.

I was surprised to see that this read had no epilogue. I felt that the first chapter would have made a good one; notwithstanding, the epilogue was absolutely marvellous. I'm a sucker for happy endings and it was delivered perfectly. The explicit bedroom scenes blew my mind to another stratosphere which were soooo vividly described. When I was given the opportunity to review this book, to say I was delighted would be an understatement. I won't think twice about reading more from this author whose writing skills have been well-demonstrated. Bravo!

As a fan of gritty and suspenseful reads that keep your heart pumping I was drawn to this post-apocalyptic tale of familial devotion, survival, and a romantic and intensely sexual menage. Add in strong-willed characters and you have a recipe for an entertaining read that you don't want to end.

Rowan is a strong-willed woman who might get bruised but never gets defeated which is important when the whole world plunges into darkness. Trained by her father in the ways of being a prepper she sets off in a prearranged plan to reunite with her family. Along the way she encounters the most dangerous element of all....two sexy ex-military men who want her for themselves. The longer she's with them the less she fears the dangers of the world and the more she fears for her heart. When they reach the end of their agreement will she take the biggest chance of her life or stay true to long-held beliefs and plans? Rowan is the best kind of heroine as she's capable but not bitchy. She can take care of herself but is more than willing to accept help when offered. She's no shrinking violet as she gives as good as she gets both verbally and physically which made her interactions with Graham and Zack immensely entertaining.

Graham and Zack have been friends since their time in the military and have a very strong bond. With the world full of danger they've managed to create a haven on a ranch along with some of their fellow soldiers. It's a place that feels far removed from everything else going on and is the perfect start to forming their relationship with Rowan. Their travels allowed that closeness to intensify in a nice blending of action in and out of the bedroom. I can understand Rowan's attraction to both of them as their differences feed her body, heart, and mind. Graham feels the more mature of the two as he's more serious with shadows of past pain weighing on him. There's an intensity surrounding him with his alpha side coming to the forefront adding to his sexiness. Zack is more lighthearted and carefree with a playful and humorous side. His strength and protectiveness is more than apparent though and with Graham beside him they're a formidable duo. Together they crafted sexual interludes that almost ignited my eReader in scenes that were sensual but playful and emotional too. The dichotomy of the personalities is what drew Rowan to them and helps you believe in their menage.

Though the story starts a bit slowly readers will soon find themselves immersed in it and captivated by the safe haven created by this memorable group of ex-soldiers. Along with strong and sexy main characters comes a cast of secondary characters that have me longing to know more. From Cam to Beau I hope to see more of these HOT men saving other damsels in distress. Though I was caught up in the suspenseful haze of the gritty world that Ms. March crafted I would've liked to have known more about the whys of what happened. I felt that the eroticism was given more importance than the resulting world chaos. When it comes to the menage it was well-written offering an enticing blend of steam and heart with scenes that were varied and nicely paced. The conclusion was fast-paced with lots of action that resulted in a definitive and satisfying HEA but left some threads hanging to compel readers to return. Fans of erotica will find themselves surprisingly entertained by this blend of post-apocalyptic love with compelling characters and heart-pounding action in and out of the bedroom.

Flash Bang is the perfect title for what happens to Rowan Callahan when a complete power grid failure sends the United States into a post-apocalyptic situation. Good thing for Rowan, her father is a doomsday prepper, so she knows exactly what needs to be done in order to survive and head back to her family home. But on her way, that’s when her life takes a new direction, and she finds herself wanting a relationship that she would have never considered before - one that would be considered taboo in modern society, but with what has happened to society, it seems only fitting that people rely on their own desires to find happiness in the chaos that has ensued and that’s exactly what she plans to do - people’s opinions be damned.

I absolutely loved Rowan! She is a kicka** heroine who can hold her own in almost any situation. When she arrives on Castle Creek Whitetail Ranch, she has every intention to flee and make it home to her family - the people she has let down far too often in her life - despite the fact that there are two strong and handsome men who stake a claim for her body and her heart.

Zach and Graham are the perfect pair for Rowan because they bring different qualities into their relationship. They are definitely both alpha males and take know how to take control, but they also play off of each other’s personality, enabling both of them to get what they want. Zach is more of a carefree guy than Graham is, which works well because Graham is a bit high strung. But regardless of how quick tempered Graham is, he’s also incredibly protective and yearns to have someone put him first for once in his life.

I love that Meghan March keeps Rowan a snarky, witty, and stubborn woman throughout the story despite her affection for the two alpha males in her life. March has also created a great cast of characters to surround her leading woman and men with and hopefully their stories will be told as well.

It's an interesting setting that this menage story takes place in, and I'm sure it's only going to be more intriguing as the US tries to regroup and seek help from those who can provide it. In a post-apocalyptic environment, rules and regulations are a thing of the past, so as word spreads about the ranch, Graham and is men are going to have to protect their group as well as their land, and it’s not going to end well for some of them.

Flash Bang is phenomenally brilliant and insanely outstanding! It is a breathtakingly creative take on an otherwise bland and sometimes overdone genre. I can honestly say that I have officially lost my mind and my heart to these incredible amazing characters. I had no idea what I was walking into, but without a doubt I never want to walk away from this intensely surreal and achingly raw journey of some of the most inspiring characters I have ever met.

Rowan was convinced that her world was ending. Her career which she spent a large part of her life pursuing was just about officially over rendering her time and life nearly wasted and worthless. What she didn’t know was her trouble was only just beginning and this was the easiest and most painless part. Her nightmare continues to get darker until she finds herself behind the walls of a most unexpected sanctuary. Just as she is trying to get a handle on her current situation and figure out what to do next, she finds herself confronted with a most unusual yet undeniably tempting offer. Zach and Graham aren’t sure what to do when Rowan unwittingly stumbles upon their home, but they definitely have no plans on sending her away after they find out what all she has been through. Protection and help they can readily offer, but when it comes to their heart, they aren’t sure if they can go that far. Will Rowan allow herself to embrace what her heart desperately wants, or will her fears cause her to walk away from a future that she is too terrified to want?

My book world will never be the same again, and the three reasons for that are named Rowan, Zach, and Graham. These characters truly rocked my world. Without hesitation, I can honestly say that they have been added to my short list of all-time favorite characters. They are nothing short of out-of-this-world spectacular! Their struggles are gut-wrenchingly real, their love is unquestionable honest, and their determination is beautifully passionate.

Without a doubt Meghan March is officially a literary power house in my eyes. While I knew that she could easily hold her own in the ranks of the most popular romance authors, Flash Bang in my humble opinion raises her into the realms of the likes of Anne Rice and Stephen King. Very few authors can actively engage all aspects of my head, heart, and soul while reading a story like March is able to do with such seemingly little effort. What sets her apart is that whenever I read one of her stories, I feel like I am truly experiencing something that is precious and timeless instead of just ingesting a grouping of words that spread out over many pages. Her books hold within it more heart and soul than I could ever express with words in order to do it any type of justice. This is just something that you need to experience for yourself.

Stories about a dystopian or apocalyptic world are not normally ones that I would gravitate to. But when I discovered this author on Facebook and found I really liked her open and funny style, I wanted to see what she had to offer. So when I saw Flash Bang and Hard Charger on NetGalley it was an easy choice to step out of my normal reading genre and I’m glad I did.

I like that more time was spent on developing the story of the couples and not focusing on the redundant details of what an apocalypse would be like for modern society. I loved the heat and the connection between these 2 sets of characters too! I could feel the chemistry coming from the pages. To me that’s the sign of a great story and author!

Flash Bang centers around Rowan, Graham and Zach and how she stumbles upon Castle Creek Whitetail Ranch as she attempts to make it to her fathers property following a life-altering EMP, electromagnetic pulse. There’s an immediate attraction between our strong, determined and stubborn heroine and the 2 leading men. But faced with the knowledge that all she sacrificed and worked for in her career was for nothing she will not let her father down again and feels she must make it home ASAP.

Hard Charger centers around Lia, Cam and Travis and it answers the cliffy that was at the end of book 1 that had my stomach in knots! I feel like the topic of Lia’s treatment at the hands of her captors and the PTSD that she dealt with following her rescue was written with care and respect for such a deep subject matter. Since we saw a lot of these characters in the first book, the second book being a novella and a lot shorter was okay to me. It still felt like a complete read.

4 solid stars on both of these books! I am hooked! There are many characters left that deserve their own story and cannot wait to see what comes in this series!

Flash Bang and Hard Charger were both great reads. Meghan March did an outstanding job of providing love stories taking place in the midst of an apocalypse. Other stores I've read in this sub-genre spent a lot of time detailing the apocalypse itself but these two focused primarily on the characters and the romances they developed.

Flash Bang was filled with a passion that was timeless. Not just between a man and a woman; but a sassy, independent and strong willed woman and two hot and sexy Marines that happen to be the best of friends.

With just a few days in, Rowan finds herself stumbling into a hunting compound run and inhabited by ex-military. Graham and Zach immediately want to claim her and share her and keep her forever.

With these alpha males and the quick wit that oozes from Rowan, I couldn't help but be glues to this story from beginning to end. It was a very well rounded story filled with characters that I couldn't help but love.

Hard Charger is a great novella that tells the story of Lia that takes place several months after Flash Bang ended. Lia was introduced in Flash Bang when she was rescued from redneck hillbillies taking full advantage of the chaos that ensued when the apocalypse began. She suffered abuse that utterly broker her spirit. But thanks to the attention of two other sexy Marines (Cam and Travis), she's begun to make her way back to who she was before everything happened.

Seeing the Ro, Graham and Zach Triad on a daily basis; she's grown envious of the relationship they share and finally gets the courage to admit it to Cam and Travis. The funny thing is that this wasn't what Cam had in mind but Travis is all "gung-ho" about it. Eventually they form a bond just as strong as their neighboring trio and together manage to not only grow closer but provides more of the story that surrounds them and their plans for surviving Dooms Day.

Both we very entertaining and quite enjoyable.

~~Received ARC from Net Galley ~~

Megan March a new to me author, that is so on my fav list now. I grabbed the book from Net galley and I’m so glad I did, if its a good read then I’m all about the post apocalyptic theme and I really enjoyed this story. I liked the easy smooth talent that Ms March showed.

Enough detail that you get the point of the story, not too much detail where you are bogged down and it gets boring. Each character was filled out and flowed well with the story.

When all hell breaks loose Rowen is away from her child hood home and is determined to make her way back to her father and her sisters. Her father used to annoy her with all his doomsday talk and preparedness, little did she know it would hit home in a big way. Running from a unbelievable situation, Ro winds up at a well armed, well situation compound. Oh and her snarkiness of course wins all the inhabitants over.... Not. (smiles)

Out on fire watch Graham, spots movement and if he isn’t mistaken its a female. Getting closer he determines she needs his help and goes about giving it to her, which she is so grateful for his help... Not.

Zach being being Grahams bestie, is all about keeping the little spitfire for themselves. Meaning himself, Graham and Rowen... She was all excited about that ... Not.

We have a bit of drama, a bit of damn I want to smack them both, the only one that seemed a sane in the three of them, was Zach. My hand itched to smack both Graham and Rowen, the past, the lack of communication oh lets not forget stubbornness in spades, makes them do everything ok most everything wrong. Sex was good, sex was hot..sex was ... Sex yep grins. All around awesome story wiht awesome charachters both main and secondary. Enjoy

I like books with menage scenes in them, but only if it doesn't escalate into a love triangle. Then, I'm out. I don't do love triangles.

But, luckily, that is not the case here. Thank God.

I have to say, I know Meghan can write some hot scenes but holy mother, these were really hot!

Our heroine, Rowan, is having a pretty bad day when the end of the world starts. It's not zombies or a diseases but different. I wasn't expecting that one, but seems more plausible than zombies, hah.

She's had a certain upbringing, so she's a girl prepared for pretty much anything. With nothing to lose, she's off to her family because in bad times, you have to stick together.

Things don't go as planned and she stumbles upon a resort-turned-hideout, where she meets several ex-military men. Their leader, Graham and his best friend, Zach, are immediately attracted to her and want to make her theirs. Yup, two hot alpha men, one lucky girl.

My fave was Graham. He was the moody one, more intense. I also think that maybe the author favored him, as well.

It was a pretty good story, it had its intense moments, the what-now moments and hot ones. I also held my breath at the end.

I should have read it sooner. 4.5 stars.

Oh man this book started with a bang…literally…with a plane crashing and the whole city going dark. Ro doesn’t know what is going on but makes it her mission to get to her family. Her plans take a detour when she meets Graham and Zach and thank god she did!

So let me start by saying that I don’t read ménages. I’ve read maybe one to two books that feature threesomes but nothing like this where feelings are mutual between the girl and the two guys. While that was different for me, it didn’t feel unusual or awkward. As I was reading I kept thinking that it all sounded normal and natural even though I would never do that in real life, so consider me surprised. But I mean, really, when you hear that it is a post-apocalyptic ménage story how can you not pick it up, if not just to satisfy your own curiosity about it. And thank god I got a chance to read it because it blew me away, which just proves how well Meghan wrote the relationship. And this first book features a lot of the relationship. The apocalypse is basically the setting and initially affected the way people behaved but the actual effects of it haven’t yet come to the surface…at least outside of the people we’re introduced to. That will definitely come into play more in the next book if the ending of Flash Bang is any indicator.

The thing I really loved about this book…well one of the things I really loved was the characters. Ro was such a strong, independent person that you couldn’t help but love her fighting spirit, especially when she didn’t listen to Graham and Zach. Graham was definitely the typical alpha male who told people what to do and carried Ro around caveman style. Zach was more the beta with his funny, relaxed nature. However, that quickly went away during the threesomes more physical activities if you know what I mean ;). Because the guys were so different I could totally understand how Ro could like both these guys. I mean it’s basically the best of both worlds…lucky girl haha.

Some might wonder why there wouldn’t be more panic and chaos in this book. I just attributed that to their backgrounds in the marines for Graham and Zach, and Ro’s dad for being one of those super prepared doomsday believers. If not for that I may have questioned it, but I’m also one of those readers who believe whatever the author tells me and I just go with it. I figure any questions I may have will be answered later on in the series.

The ending of this book was really good in my opinion. It gave some resolution but also left a lot of possibilities for the next book and for that I am super excited. I can’t wait to see how this world changes and what those changes bring for the relationships.

(A very long and thorough review) **Spoilers Alert!!!!

Okay, You got to read this. You really got to pick this book up! I’m going to say it right now up front. I recommend this book!

I’ve read many menage novels before and really liked them, and can say that this is another one I really, really, — REALLY loved! If I can I would so make a video review so you can tell how much I enjoyed this book and see all my quirky stupidity over this book.

This is Meghan March’s debut book and I was hooked right from the start — and I mean the start, like when I first read the synopsis when it was up for a Book blast and review tour, I knew I had to read it. And so here I am finished reading it and now reviewing it for y’all.

Oh my gosh I can not tell you how much I love this! I mean I don’t want to reiterate the synopsis but man it’s hard not to do. Teeheehee~ hard.

But anyways, the world is like basically heading into a hectic apocalypse, no zombies, just out of electricity, a blackout of sort, reminds me of the TV show Revolution (which is now cancelled by the way) when a plane crashes down in Chicago. We then have Rowan, or Ro, packing up the instant the madness hit and finding her way back home to join her father and sister. Unfortunately she got herself into a bit of a scramble, literally, and is on the run from some mad rapist hillbillies. Of course she gets herself injured by tripping and then rescued by a hunky and intimidating, Conan the barbarian. She gets brought to the safety of his camp and finds herself surrounded by other hunks. Dream come true right? *wink wink*

So yeah, things got down and banter flies within the moment she’s safe inside the in-caged barrier, she did not want to be there. And even though there’s two hunky men that makes her tingle in excitement, she’s hell bent determined to get the heck out of there and reunite with her family.

Okay, now on to the good stuff. I really liked Ro. She was heck of a heroine and I just couldn’t not like her. She had never placed her family first on her list because she was such a workaholic that once the apocalypse hit, it made her regret not having spent more time with them. But then her father did prepare her for something of this like so she was shocked that his craziness didn’t hit far from the truth. She was determined as heck to reach her family and also hell bent on doing things her way. Even to the point of defying the hottie hunky Conan the barbarian, Graham, again and again. She was strong-minded, stubborn, independent, infuriating, and a not so small of a girl with a size 8 waist. Yup, I liked her. But man can she be full of surprises! Not just can she argue and ignore the over protectiveness of these men but she can really pull something over their heads, and dare them to sack her. She’s a heck of a troublemaker for these ex-Marines. Dang! And I like her so much!

And then the two hunks. Graham, Conan the barbarian –from what Ro likes to call him because he likes to man handle her, in a very good and protective way—, and Zach the gorgeous friendly one. But yes these two are my absolute favorites! I mean they are the heroes but I can’t tell you who I liked best, gosh! I just wish they were one whole person! But of course they have to be two separate characters and in personalities which works just fine by me, but they are down right sexy. But I got to warn you, these two are just tortured. They’re both not perfect and had a rough childhood with parents that were just, not there when they need them so they really had a background and trust issues.

Graham is the absolute Alpha male every girl who reads romances super love. He’s the one who likes to take control and is the leader of the pack, so of course he likes control and likes to take control of the situation; which therefore made it difficult for him to handle when Ro was always disobeying his orders. He is the one with the most trust issues because of his childhood and so doesn’t like to be attached to people, most likely women so he’s never into the relationship thing. He can be very tenacious when he finds something that he wants, in the situation it’s Ro. And he can be very intimidating and can also be very aloof and detached if something emotional gets in the way. Very doubting you know. He’s the bad boy with all the problems but is very broken inside and sweet and you just want to hug and make everything better for his sake.

Zach on the other hand is the total opposite of Graham. He’s what we would call the Beta hero, but then he’s not actually the beta neither. But compared to Graham, he would be the beta. And you know me, I super love my Beta heroes! Just saying. But Zach can be very forthcoming and open about what he likes and can really take control of thing if he felt he needed too. He’s very friendly and flirtatious, I call him the pretty boy type because he knows he oozes everything sex. He’s the more approachable type and he doesn’t judge you right off the top and is more trusting and compassionate. He’s also more in touch with his feelings, which I loved about him because he doesn’t hide it. He too had a hard childhood but he tend to hide that and see only the good things in life. He’s the more rational one between him and Graham, while Graham is more action.

As I read this though, I felt that Graham had, or seem more of the “true” Hero in this book. I felt that he had more parts and we got to understand and see more side of his character, personality, and past than we did Zack. Zach felt like he was just the motivation to bring Graham up to pace with his feelings, although we also saw Zach’s personality and his role in their relationship he was more, to me, the wing-man.

As for the story I really loved how it was written. It wasn’t written in only one person’s point of view but in all three, and wasn’t in first person either which I really liked because I enjoyed reading this kind of story and setting in third person. The interactions between these three were super strong. I was surprised that I wasn’t turned off by this relationship. I know I had trouble with this kind of genre-ish because I would want each of them to find their own HEA. This is why I like separate books for these two different types of heroes because then I won’t have to choose who I liked best out of the book because I would know that the other one might get to have their own book and find their own HEA. Butas for this case, they all found it and I liked it.

Their interactions were very enjoyable to read and see move along as their relationship grew. Although it grew within a short space of time, like not even within 24 hours —of course an apocalypse would do that to you I believe— I was really invested in it. It had me on the edge of my seat and heart racing with every bit of action it gave me. And it had every good bit of action down from man handling to fearing for the lives of peoples and just, fire arms, guns, and lots of action.

Oh yeah, every banter and argument Ro and Graham had either got me laughing or thinking of what would happen next. They most definitely got me thinking of what Ro would do next to vex Graham because I just loved vexing him. I super loved it. I also super love how Zach is always reassuring Ro and asking her permission before he does things with and to her. I thought that was very sweet and caring of him to think of her personally first before himself. And he to likes to reassure himself by asking her those questions and to tell him verbally so that he hears it from her mouth what he can and what she wants him to do to her. Getting permission from her, you know, very gentlemanly of him. Whoa~ is he turning out to be a submissive? That just got me thinking. But anyways the sex.

Can I just say the sex was amazingly heart stoppingly panty wetting. Oh my gosh, that dang first sexual scene! Ugh~ I’m not sure why I’m feeling so vexed but that scene really got me frustrated because I needed some—thing! I had to skim over the the last sex scene because I couldn’t deal it with. It was too dang amazingly written I….errrr…..I wanted to finish reading before I exploded! Yup, that’s what it did to me. I’m giving y’all Too Much Information but I’m sorry, it just….. I can’t even come up with the words. My mind just poofed~ Those scenes just sucked every rational thought out of my head and left me feeling naughty and needy. Tsk tsk tsk~ I can’t believe it you know. I’m still reeling. Even after my shower. *sighs*

Moving on, Loved the secondary characters of brother in arms at the camp along with the wife and little girl of a brother in arms there. How the story ended was great. I wasn’t sure how the author was going to pull it off because it was so complicated! Especally with Ro’s determination to reunite with her family and the dangers that lurked outside the camp walls. But the ending was good, they got a HEA and I was happy. All was good, I didn’t care what happen next because they were good and that was all that mattered. Apocalypse be damned.

Then I read the epilogue. It stared off good because I really wanted an answer to a surprising situation and then, I didn’t get it but I wish I hadn’t read it. It just left me hanging with lots of questions and I wasn’t sure if the author was going to have a sequel or something, but I was already hoping for a sequel for the rest of the other hunky brothers in arms so that they could each find their own HEAs, but no. It just got messed up and Ugh~ So frustrated! I loved it so much and then, Bam! *sighs*

I loved it though. Despite the epilogue which I loved and hated, I still recommend this. Like really highly recommend this.

Every book needs what some call the 'it' factor.
That one thing that keeps pulling you in again and again.
Never relenting until you find yourself at the last page wondering what the hell just happened!
Flash Bang has this 'it' factor! In more ways than one!

5 'it' factor STARS!!!

Every time I'm preparing to read a new author, or new to me, I'm so giddy. It's like opening a huge treasure chest and finding all the goodies! This was my first read by Meghan March and it will NOT be my last!! I'm not a fan of reading books about ménage. I don't usually mind it when if happens in a book but not throughout. but this book may have changed my mind. It winds and spins us through an event that many of us hope to never endure.

Everything about this author's descriptive writing brings it all to life. This author has skills. And boy does she use them. It all takes me there. I felt I could almost see, feel, hear and touch the surroundings. That alone makes this book different. Sets it apart from the rest!

The characters were outstanding. Each with their own nuances and tragedies but magnetized to fit like pieces of a puzzle. The immediate chemistry was a simmer but soon explodes like fireworks. When Rowan, 'Ro', first meets Graham and Zach she's not sure how to take them. She has fears - but she doesn't want to let her self be vulnerable, let down her walls so they can see them.

"...she instinctively knew. Some of it was fear of the unknown. Fear that was colored with the hang-ups she'd been carrying around for weeks now. But more than that, it was fear that what she was about to do would change the course of her life irrevocably."

She's self-reliant and no amount of testosterone is going to make her otherwise. Ro calls Graham, Conan. His barbaric nature to carry her over his shoulder and take her kicking and screaming is humorous. But I soon learned that Graham has a softer side. Not only is he alpha but he is pure teddy bear. And Zach's likable, yet diplomatic, approach is just as refreshing. I won't lie, Zach has his alpha ways but he's so even-tempered it was nice to see him get emotional over Ro.

"...I can't be anything but proud that you made the hard choice and took action when it would have been easier to do nothing... Hell, Ro, your guts and determinations just make me love you more."

After an arrangement between Graham, Zach and Ro begins... It really heats up. And I'm not talking fireworks. I'm talking like thousands of degrees, don't-even-look-or-you'll-be-burned HOT. The attraction between the 3 is most definitely some of the hottest I've read. And it's not like some - where you read it rolling your eyes, cringing and can't wait for the cheesy one-liners to stop. No. This was tastefully done. Making the reader need more. Read more. Devour more. They each have their skeletons and as each one comes to light they become closer and closer to being one.

"I love you, and I love Graham, too. But it's all or nothing for us. Anything less is going to destroy at least one of us, and I can't let that happen."

I can't imagine having the same feelings for 2 men - but to each is own. Rowan makes an easy decision because she knows it's only temporary. Graham doesn't do long-term. Zach won't do long-term without Graham. Which brings up another terrific part of this book. Graham and Zach are long-time friends and brothers in arms. They are Marines and fought together in Afghanistan. Tied together by the uniform they wore and the unshakeable friendship they had. They weren't into each other, just enjoyed sharing woman. And Ro was on their list.

"If we can't tie her to us, she walks away forever. I didn't figure you'd let that happen without a fight, and... I'm not willing to let it happen either."

As the book progresses - relationships form for Ro with Zach and Graham, and the others living on the ranch. There are ups and downs, ohmigosh's and moments of hell, yes! I couldn't finish fast enough. When I did finish, I was left with no words to match the authors in trying to review/describe this book! I sincerely hope that this is not Meghan March's final word on Zach, Graham, and Rowan. I hope it's not the last we hear of the remaining characters as well. This piece of suspenseful. witty, erotic effectuation was masterful!!!

Holy bat cave batman. This is one testorone filled smoky hawtness wrapped up in two delicious men by the names of Graham and Zach. Rowan sometimes over the top but if anyone can tame these two sexiness on legs men it is her and she does it with a flourish. Graham is rough around the edges and inwardly insecure. Afraid no one will love him and stay with him due to his childhood he tries not to get close to people. Zach is the sweet one of the two. Don't mistake that sweetness though because he is dominant in his own way. These two are protecting the land Graham's uncle left him when the grid goes off and Rowan stumbles upon them. She's injured and scared but that doesn't stop her from squaring off against Graham who is instantly attracted.

These two need showers to get over the toastiness they exhibit every time they are close. Graham begins to fall and fall hard. As does Zach. The two want to share her as they have woman in the past. But this is different, they want to keep her. Share her always and forever. All is going well but than Rowan heals and chooses to go. Go to her family this has Graham reeling and Zach sad but he does understand sort of. Something occurs and her and her family end up at their land again.

Things seem to be okay but than Graham decides to spare Rowan from pain after her dad declares he isn't staying and leaving soon. This causes a rift between Graham, Zach and Rowan. Rowan feeling unloved, Zach is angry but kind of understands and Graham is hollow. than Zach makes a decision that cuts Graham down and he is now a shell of himself. One thing leads to another and Graham is hurt. This leads to a upset Rowan and revelations coming forth.

In the end happiness does prevail but when the ending comes you wonder will this happiness stay.

a sensually hot and exciting book that has a tasteful menage built on more than just lust but on trust and love. A book of love, trust, family and support. One that shows love comes in all forms and is accepted no matter what the form is.

Rowan "Ro" Callahan was already having a bad day. Then she witnesses a plane crash and it goes from bad to worse. Something has happened in the world shutting down anything with an electronic pulse. With an apocalypse starting, Rowan grabs her gear and makes a plan to go meet up with her family. On her way to meet up with them, she runs into trouble. Running for her life and getting injured in the process, puts her in the path of ex military operatives. Enter Graham (or Conan as I like to call him) and Zach. They've shared women for as long as they can remember with hopes of finding one in which they'll both be happy with. Ro might be the one for them but with some recent events in her life, she isn't sure she wants to travel down that path. Needing to get to her family and with all the dangers on the road, Graham and Zach come up with a proposition that Ro cannot refuse. This is where Rowan, Graham and Zach's story takes off.
This is my first ménage novel and I have to say that I am a fan! Not only do you get great chemistry and hot scenes but you get to meet a bunch of other characters that you will fall in love with. The only thing that I would have liked more of was info about the apocalypse. Most of the book takes place in a secured secluded ranch so you really don't get much of a feel for what's going on with the outside world. That being said, Meghan March really knows her stuff about being prepared! Definitely need her in my doomsday group! Flash Bang is full of sass, drama and some serious sexiness! I found it to be a fast and easy read. I look forward to the next book in this series. Hopefully Beau's! :)

Oh man this book started with a bang…literally…with a plane crashing and the whole city going dark. Ro doesn’t know what is going on but makes it her mission to get to her family. Her plans take a detour when she meets Graham and Zach and thank god she did!

So let me start by saying that I don’t read ménages. I’ve read maybe one to two books that feature threesomes but nothing like this where feelings are mutual between the girl and the two guys. While that was different for me, it didn’t feel unusual or awkward. As I was reading I kept thinking that it all sounded normal and natural even though I would never do that in real life, so consider me surprised. But I mean, really, when you hear that it is a post-apocalyptic ménage story how can you not pick it up, if not just to satisfy your own curiosity about it. And thank god I got a chance to read it because it blew me away, which just proves how well Meghan wrote the relationship. And this first book features a lot of the relationship. The apocalypse is basically the setting and initially affected the way people behaved but the actual effects of it haven’t yet come to the surface…at least outside of the people we’re introduced to. That will definitely come into play more in the next book if the ending of Flash Bang is any indicator.

The thing I really loved about this book…well one of the things I really loved was the characters. Ro was such a strong, independent person that you couldn’t help but love her fighting spirit, especially when she didn’t listen to Graham and Zach. Graham was definitely the typical alpha male who told people what to do and carried Ro around caveman style. Zach was more the beta with his funny, relaxed nature. However, that quickly went away during the threesomes more physical activities if you know what I mean ;). Because the guys were so different I could totally understand how Ro could like both these guys. I mean it’s basically the best of both worlds…lucky girl haha.

Some might wonder why there wouldn’t be more panic and chaos in this book. I just attributed that to their backgrounds in the marines for Graham and Zach, and Ro’s dad for being one of those super prepared doomsday believers. If not for that I may have questioned it, but I’m also one of those readers who believe whatever the author tells me and I just go with it. I figure any questions I may have will be answered later on in the series.

The ending of this book was really good in my opinion. It gave some resolution but also left a lot of possibilities for the next book and for that I am super excited. I can’t wait to see how this world changes and what those changes bring for the relationships.

(A very long and thorough review) **Spoilers Alert!!!!

Okay, You got to read this. You really got to pick this book up! I’m going to say it right now up front. I recommend this book!

I’ve read many menage novels before and really liked them, and can say that this is another one I really, really, — REALLY loved! If I can I would so make a video review so you can tell how much I enjoyed this book and see all my quirky stupidity over this book.

This is Meghan March’s debut book and I was hooked right from the start — and I mean the start, like when I first read the synopsis when it was up for a Book blast and review tour, I knew I had to read it. And so here I am finished reading it and now reviewing it for y’all.

Oh my gosh I can not tell you how much I love this! I mean I don’t want to reiterate the synopsis but man it’s hard not to do. Teeheehee~ hard.

But anyways, the world is like basically heading into a hectic apocalypse, no zombies, just out of electricity, a blackout of sort, reminds me of the TV show Revolution (which is now cancelled by the way) when a plane crashes down in Chicago. We then have Rowan, or Ro, packing up the instant the madness hit and finding her way back home to join her father and sister. Unfortunately she got herself into a bit of a scramble, literally, and is on the run from some mad rapist hillbillies. Of course she gets herself injured by tripping and then rescued by a hunky and intimidating, Conan the barbarian. She gets brought to the safety of his camp and finds herself surrounded by other hunks. Dream come true right? *wink wink*

So yeah, things got down and banter flies within the moment she’s safe inside the in-caged barrier, she did not want to be there. And even though there’s two hunky men that makes her tingle in excitement, she’s hell bent determined to get the heck out of there and reunite with her family.

Okay, now on to the good stuff. I really liked Ro. She was heck of a heroine and I just couldn’t not like her. She had never placed her family first on her list because she was such a workaholic that once the apocalypse hit, it made her regret not having spent more time with them. But then her father did prepare her for something of this like so she was shocked that his craziness didn’t hit far from the truth. She was determined as heck to reach her family and also hell bent on doing things her way. Even to the point of defying the hottie hunky Conan the barbarian, Graham, again and again. She was strong-minded, stubborn, independent, infuriating, and a not so small of a girl with a size 8 waist. Yup, I liked her. But man can she be full of surprises! Not just can she argue and ignore the over protectiveness of these men but she can really pull something over their heads, and dare them to sack her. She’s a heck of a troublemaker for these ex-Marines. Dang! And I like her so much!

And then the two hunks. Graham, Conan the barbarian –from what Ro likes to call him because he likes to man handle her, in a very good and protective way—, and Zach the gorgeous friendly one. But yes these two are my absolute favorites! I mean they are the heroes but I can’t tell you who I liked best, gosh! I just wish they were one whole person! But of course they have to be two separate characters and in personalities which works just fine by me, but they are down right sexy. But I got to warn you, these two are just tortured. They’re both not perfect and had a rough childhood with parents that were just, not there when they need them so they really had a background and trust issues.

Graham is the absolute Alpha male every girl who reads romances super love. He’s the one who likes to take control and is the leader of the pack, so of course he likes control and likes to take control of the situation; which therefore made it difficult for him to handle when Ro was always disobeying his orders. He is the one with the most trust issues because of his childhood and so doesn’t like to be attached to people, most likely women so he’s never into the relationship thing. He can be very tenacious when he finds something that he wants, in the situation it’s Ro. And he can be very intimidating and can also be very aloof and detached if something emotional gets in the way. Very doubting you know. He’s the bad boy with all the problems but is very broken inside and sweet and you just want to hug and make everything better for his sake.

Zach on the other hand is the total opposite of Graham. He’s what we would call the Beta hero, but then he’s not actually the beta neither. But compared to Graham, he would be the beta. And you know me, I super love my Beta heroes! Just saying. But Zach can be very forthcoming and open about what he likes and can really take control of thing if he felt he needed too. He’s very friendly and flirtatious, I call him the pretty boy type because he knows he oozes everything sex. He’s the more approachable type and he doesn’t judge you right off the top and is more trusting and compassionate. He’s also more in touch with his feelings, which I loved about him because he doesn’t hide it. He too had a hard childhood but he tend to hide that and see only the good things in life. He’s the more rational one between him and Graham, while Graham is more action.

As I read this though, I felt that Graham had, or seem more of the “true” Hero in this book. I felt that he had more parts and we got to understand and see more side of his character, personality, and past than we did Zack. Zach felt like he was just the motivation to bring Graham up to pace with his feelings, although we also saw Zach’s personality and his role in their relationship he was more, to me, the wing-man.

As for the story I really loved how it was written. It wasn’t written in only one person’s point of view but in all three, and wasn’t in first person either which I really liked because I enjoyed reading this kind of story and setting in third person. The interactions between these three were super strong. I was surprised that I wasn’t turned off by this relationship. I know I had trouble with this kind of genre-ish because I would want each of them to find their own HEA. This is why I like separate books for these two different types of heroes because then I won’t have to choose who I liked best out of the book because I would know that the other one might get to have their own book and find their own HEA. Butas for this case, they all found it and I liked it.

Their interactions were very enjoyable to read and see move along as their relationship grew. Although it grew within a short space of time, like not even within 24 hours —of course an apocalypse would do that to you I believe— I was really invested in it. It had me on the edge of my seat and heart racing with every bit of action it gave me. And it had every good bit of action down from man handling to fearing for the lives of peoples and just, fire arms, guns, and lots of action.

Oh yeah, every banter and argument Ro and Graham had either got me laughing or thinking of what would happen next. They most definitely got me thinking of what Ro would do next to vex Graham because I just loved vexing him. I super loved it. I also super love how Zach is always reassuring Ro and asking her permission before he does things with and to her. I thought that was very sweet and caring of him to think of her personally first before himself. And he to likes to reassure himself by asking her those questions and to tell him verbally so that he hears it from her mouth what he can and what she wants him to do to her. Getting permission from her, you know, very gentlemanly of him. Whoa~ is he turning out to be a submissive? That just got me thinking. But anyways the sex.

Can I just say the sex was amazingly heart stoppingly panty wetting. Oh my gosh, that dang first sexual scene! Ugh~ I’m not sure why I’m feeling so vexed but that scene really got me frustrated because I needed some—thing! I had to skim over the the last sex scene because I couldn’t deal it with. It was too dang amazingly written I….errrr…..I wanted to finish reading before I exploded! Yup, that’s what it did to me. I’m giving y’all Too Much Information but I’m sorry, it just….. I can’t even come up with the words. My mind just poofed~ Those scenes just sucked every rational thought out of my head and left me feeling naughty and needy. Tsk tsk tsk~ I can’t believe it you know. I’m still reeling. Even after my shower. *sighs*

Moving on, Loved the secondary characters of brother in arms at the camp along with the wife and little girl of a brother in arms there. How the story ended was great. I wasn’t sure how the author was going to pull it off because it was so complicated! Especally with Ro’s determination to reunite with her family and the dangers that lurked outside the camp walls. But the ending was good, they got a HEA and I was happy. All was good, I didn’t care what happen next because they were good and that was all that mattered. Apocalypse be damned.

Then I read the epilogue. It stared off good because I really wanted an answer to a surprising situation and then, I didn’t get it but I wish I hadn’t read it. It just left me hanging with lots of questions and I wasn’t sure if the author was going to have a sequel or something, but I was already hoping for a sequel for the rest of the other hunky brothers in arms so that they could each find their own HEAs, but no. It just got messed up and Ugh~ So frustrated! I loved it so much and then, Bam! *sighs*

I loved it though. Despite the epilogue which I loved and hated, I still recommend this. Like really highly recommend this.

Every book needs what some call the 'it' factor.
That one thing that keeps pulling you in again and again.
Never relenting until you find yourself at the last page wondering what the hell just happened!
Flash Bang has this 'it' factor! In more ways than one!

5 'it' factor STARS!!!

Every time I'm preparing to read a new author, or new to me, I'm so giddy. It's like opening a huge treasure chest and finding all the goodies!

When Rowan, 'Ro', first meets Graham and Zach she's not sure how to take them. She has fears - but she doesn't want to let her self be vulnerable, let down her walls so they can see them.

This is my first ménage novel and I have to say that I am a fan! Not only do you get great chemistry and hot scenes but you get to meet a bunch of other characters that you will fall in love with. The only thing that I would have liked more of was info about the apocalypse. Most of the book takes place in a secured secluded ranch so you really don't get much of a feel for what's going on with the outside world. That being said, Meghan March really knows her stuff about being prepared! Definitely need her in my doomsday group! Flash Bang is full of sass, drama and some serious sexiness! I found it to be a fast and easy read. I look forward to the next book in this series. Hopefully Beau's! :)

I love these former military, pure Alpha, gorgeous, muscled men turned doomsday preppers. Graham and Zach were two of these men. Best friends that shared EVERYTHING. Having never thought they'd find "the one", Graham makes all kinds of mistakes just trying to make life easier for Rowan, but ends up being making things more miserable for himself and Zach. Will Rowan leave the ranch? Will Zach pass up the opportunity to be with Rowan forever, even if that means leaving is best friend? What will Graham do?

So much more is happening in this book. I just gave a brief glimpse of a piece of the story. This is actually my first book by this author and I loved it! It's also my first doomsday preppers type of book and I'm hooked! I can't wait to read the next book in the series.

“Flash Bang” by author Meghan March is an amazing read. I usually do not like books that deal with survival that may lead to the destruction of life as we know it, however I am very glad that I did. If I had to deal with a life altering situation, such as not electric and water, then I want to be in this book. I really got into the story and wicked happy that the 3 main characters (yes I said 3) were so intense. The sexual heat between them was wicked hot, but also the connection that they experienced was enticing all by itself. The author did not give us a shrinking violet but instead a strong independent woman, who at times needs some back up, just like everyday women. The men were alpha males who knew what they wanted. I do not want to give anything away but sometimes even in chaos there is love. This book is not a cliffhanger. I do however hope that the author continues writing books for the secondary characters of the book.

I love the book and the author. Meghan March Has just gained a fan and I will recommend her books to others and impatiently what for me. So from this reader I would like to say “Flash Bang” rocks well worth the read and price. Take a chance just like me and if you are like me you will totally love it.
*Intense sexual content, not recommend for those younger than 18 by this reader*

If you love reading romance with a doomsday backdrop then you will want to read Flash Bang. However if your not into reading about the fall of society while falling in love you will STILL WANT TO READ this book. The idea that we as a society could fall apart if we had to electricity or internet is to real and is perfect doomsday backdrop. Meghan March does not focus on this but on how one woman finds love while trying to reach her family after the apocalypse. Ro is a strong woman who happens to be rescued my Graham a form military man who happens to have a camp with fellow soldiers. Graham is alpha male that finds Ro to be strong willed beautiful and someone he wants. And he is greatful his best friend Zach wants her to because they share women. Yes this is a ménage book. The relationship between the three are hot and explosive in and out of the bedroom. I won't spoil it but this is such a great read. Can the men protect Ro and the others living with them. Can they find love when the world is falling a part . Can they get Ro to her father who is waiting for her (since he has his own doomsday bunker and prepaired for this day forever)

Meghan March has rewritten a book that had me on the edge of my seat. I loved this book and can not wait for her next book because I need more.

From the fact I started and finished this book in the same day, I think that gives you a pretty strong indication that I enjoyed t Flash Bang... which I did, a lot.
Menage is my favorite erotica subgenre and FlashBang was a well executed threesome tale.
Ro did get on my nerves a bit, in fact the first chapter is her POV, and my attention wavered. I understood her choices by the end, but they were irritating during the flow of the story. On the other hand, Graham who seemed to get more airtime than Zach, I loved him. Zach and the other guys were great, too. I think Meghan has a real talent for depicting her male character, where dialogue is concerned especially.
The time frame seemed a bit off too, but that is just my opinion.
Great read, great way to spend a night. And also, if you're not used to this subgenre, the sex is detailed enough for a hardcore fan like me, but not too much for a newbie. :)

I have read Ms Marchs Beneath series and absolutely loved those books. So when I saw this, the plot interested me even tho my blog partner thinks I'm crazy, but I love books like this. The ones that have an apocalypse related theme, minus Zombies, but including hot ex military men? I mean, what's not to love, right? I liked the quick pace of the book and the POVs of the three main characters. Overall, I gave it 4 stars and am looking forward to more in this series.
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

My introduction to the work of Meghan March and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for action, passion and a lot of HOT!!

I was hooked from the first page and hated that things like work, sleep, eating, etc. go in the way as I would have loved to read in one sitting.

Meghan drew me into the story and kept my attention throughout. Her characters are real and believable and I would definitely want them on my side if I found myself in the same situation.

Looking forward to reading more of Meghan's work.

An apocalyptic erotic m/m/f menage, let the games begin! I thoroughly enjoyed this offering from Meghan March, however you need to be aware that it ends on a cliffhanger. The author writes with humor and plenty of passion. The characters are vividly drawn and I thought they had actual chemistry. No zombies here, just a well crafted story, witty sharp dialogue and lots of sex.

Park, along with his accomplices Etch and Harkin, give new meaning to the words “bounty hunters.” What they do is not quite legal. Not true. What they do is decidedly illegal, and they get paid under the table for their efforts, but they get their wanted felon. Usually. Sometimes things go wrong. Very wrong.
In this hard-hitting crime novel by Kellen Burden, we are introduced to a hard-bitten group of misfits who battle their own internal demons while they also try to do the right (although not always legal) thing. The characters are very well-rounded, meaning, when you read about Park, you are not also reading the same thing about Etch or Harkin. These are three very different guys, and in the land of story-telling, that’s important.
The story is fast-paced and filled with action. If you have issues about language or violence, this is not the book for you. However, considering the backgrounds of these characters, it would be out of character for them to act any other way than the ways they do. Their language is a part of their personalities. Unlike some authors, this author does not use his book as an excuse for using either language or violence. It is integral to the plot as well as the characters.
I realize I gave very little about the plot, but suffice it to say you will not be disappointed if you love action-adventure as much as I do.

Rowan "Ro" Callahan was already having a bad day when she sees a plane crash it is quickly becoming the worst day ever. Being the author creates this strong female lead, she of course is prepared. and it goes from bad to worse. So the ever prepared Ro gets her food rations to prepare for meeting her family. Her goal is to use her preparations to meet and potentially save her family. What she does is begin running for her life.

Now the other characters Graham and Zach, who are something else! The story with these two brings a different plot twist. The duo, usually sharing ladies, need to decide what to do about Ro. Very unique plot twist here.

I really thought this was an interesting way to bring people over to this genre. If you are or maybe want to get into this genre, then I suggest you give this novel a try. Not being too familiar with this, I felt educated, which in turns lets me sing the praises of Meghan March and say congrats on a debut worth reading!

An apocalypse of the world and not sure what exactly caused it. Sounds edgy.

Rowan left to meet with her father and sister only to run into a ranch of prior military personnel. Before her stood Graham and Zach. Never did I expect her to fall in love with two hot alpha males! That's my dream come true! A HEA ending that was brilliant and left you wondering who exactly was at the gate asking for Graham?

A deliciously sizzling hot story that left me wanting more. I want my own rescuers when the Apocalypse comes! I wanna bang when the flash does come.
Very strong heroine, that can kick-ass. And 2 very macho-hunky alpha Males. You can feel the connection with the characters right away. I loved the HEA.
Loved this exciting and exhilarating ride Ms. March takes her readers on.
Read this one!

Loved it! Read it one day, because once I started I could not stop. Flash Bang had great characters, hot sex, and a full storyline. Not only that, March's voice and storytelling style is smooth in all the right places, and rough in all the right ways.
Highly recommend giving it a read.

Meghan March, all I have to say to you, is where is the next book? I want stories for each an every one of them guys...and Erica, because I KNOW she's gonna kick some a$$!!

Seriously Meghan March is my go to author now. I love her writing style and I am always wrapped up in the story, so Flash Bang is no different. I was completely immersed in this world and loved every minute of it!

"Flash Bang," by Meghan March, is the first book in the Flash Bang Series. This book has an unusual premise for a romance but it's very good and very steamy. I enjoyed the characters and am looking forward to the rest of this series.
