Theirs to Take (Blasphemy)

Hartley is devastated by the damage to get catamaran from a storm..needed for her business she meets Jonathan and Cruz, who are willing to help with repairs. What she did not know was that these two hot men stole her affection and have her feelings and didn't know existed. Jonathan and Cruz are Masters at Blasphemy Club and teach Hartley that all things are possible when your heart let's go!!!!

This was a very intriguing story. Not only do you have the individual relationships forming and developing, you also get the triad factor as well. The storyline was amazing and flowed so well. The characters were so well developed and engaging. Definitely a must read for the person who loves menage romance.

Both Cruz and Jonathan are very passionate men, "Jonathan pulled back until he could look her in the eye. And his were on fire. “Christ, Hartley, we want you. Both of us. Do you understand what I’m saying?” I liked this book, Cruz and Jonathan were sexy, alpha males and they knew how to treat their lady right.

Laura Kaye has treated her fans to another well-written sexy BDSM romance. Hartley, Jonathan and Cruz sense something special at their first flirtatious meetings. Friendship evolves into lust which quickly morphs to something more potent, love.

4 1/2 stars. Laura Kaye's novellas never disappoint. She'll always give you what you're looking for and in this case, she'll give you twice the fun.

First off, I absolutely loved the cross-over books concept and I had the pleasure of reading both of them! I actually read Jennifer Probst's Reveal Me first and so I got a sneak peek at Hartley, Jonathan and Cruz. Then, it was fun to see Laura Kaye's perspective on the scenes I had already read in Reveal Me. You don't have to read both of these books, but it was a fun twist on things and I do recommend it!
Now, back to Theirs To Take. Hartley hasn't had it easy in life and she isn't looking for anyone or anything. She's struggling after a storm has brought her havoc on her life and she has to get her boat fixed. She doesn't set out to start something with the two men who are helping her out of her bind, but finds herself enjoying their company and banter and wonders if there could be more. Luckily for her, Jonathan and Cruz are definitely interested. She's unsure of what it is they're offering, but she trusts them. These two dominates slowly show Hartley what it's like to be cared for, loved and worshiped. Due to the schedule to repair her boat, they miss several nights at Blasphemy but when the opportunity arises, they take Hartley at the first chance! If M/M/F situations are not your thing, then I would skip this book. However, if you're open to reading about a compassionate, loving relationship that happens to be between three people, then I highly suggest this read! I thought Laura Kaye did a spectacular job with this book and I enjoy this series.

This author always manages to engage me in her stories, I feel like I’m the fly on the wall.

The characters are well written with lots of emotions and the connection between the three of them is described in a way that makes it believable.

Lots of dialogues and no unnecessary descriptions of surroundings is making it enjoyable in addition to very hot love scenes that not only describes the act but the feelings around it.

I always have a open mind when I read about ménage because this is fiction not real life so I try ty be objective and the way this story is written it makes it easy. Objectively I don’t believe serious ménage relationships is possible but reading this I wonder maybe.........

Steamy. Sexy. Oh, so HOT. These two Masters, Jonathan and Cruz, created so much heat that I was fanning myself. I really loved them with Hartley. So sweet and kind, yet dominant and demanding too. I liked the way things built between them all, especially the tension between Jonathan and Cruz. So much passion and love, but they were each so uncertain how the other felt. I really enjoy this series. It is decadent and a special treat, with every release.

Jonathan and Cruz have been friends since the eight years they spent in the Navy. More often than not they have shared a submissive and are part owners of the Club. Hartley owns a catamaran that she uses for tours. It gets damaged during a hurricane and now she has to find someone who can fix it within three weeks. She has no luck until she meets Jonathan and then Cruz. She’s drawn to both of them and the adventure begins. Great story about three way love.

This book is phenomenal! Lust and love intertwined with a storyline that reeks with emotion. In spite of its compact length, the story did not seem rushed; and the relationship between Jonathan and Cruz almost moved me more than the one they both had with Hartley. I have loved the other Blasphemy books, but this one is now my favorite even though the Club only plays a periphery role. I felt the love and the pain and as always feel drained at the end of the book yet wanting more. Great read!!

OMG loved this book and loving this whole series Blasphemy totally awesome book and loved how Hartley got together with Cruz and Johnathan cool to see them all together loved them nice to see them loving each other and totally OK with a threesome and how they fixed her boat thanks to the hurricane broke her boat bringing them all together so great to see Thanks for a great book and Laura is a great author can't wait to see what comes next

Everything about this book pulled me in and kept me riveted!!! Laura Kaye is one of my favorite authors and I am never disappointed with her books. I loved the dynamics between Jonathan, Cruz, and Hartley. And most of all, I loved that Hartley was exactly the perfect person to pull this group into an amazing triad. What a fantastic story!!!

Just when I didn’t think the amazing Blasphemy series couldn’t get any better, Laura Kaye gifted us series fanatics Theirs to Take.

Hartley Farren is a beautiful, strong, smart, independent woman. She’s succeeded in a man’s world—charter sailing. But sometimes a strong, smart, independent woman needs some taking care of, some TLC, and Jonathan Allen and Cruz Ramos are just the men to do that.

Jonathan and Cruz have been the best of friends and business partners for years. They’ve shared in their successes and failures and in their women. They’ve been searching for the perfect woman to share a life, a love, a family with . . . and they have set their sights on Hartley.

Establishing a relationship is hard—even harder when three people are involved. But feelings cannot be denied and are those feelings strong enough to convince Hartley that the three of them should be together forever.

*fans self* Pardon me while I still recover from the quick hot flashes I’m still suffering from. I love this BDSM series so much. It really shows what a D/s relationship should be. That the gift of submission is one that should be treasured and coveted. That submission isn’t weakness, but incredible strength and faith in the person(people) it’s been granted. I loved Hartley, Jonathan and Cruz together. Personalities, wants, needs, desires were perfectly matched. Watching their relationship grow and develop was amazing and scorching hot between the sheets. None of them lost their independence—or themselves. And it was just beautiful. I can’t get enough of this series. Can’t wait for what’s next.

In Theirs to Take, we return to Club Blasphemy and this time we get the story or two of the club's masters, Jonathan and Cruz. Jonathan and Cruz are best friends, who first met in the Navy. They share a passion for sailing, a sailboat restoration company, a need for BDSM and their women. Though they have engaged in numerous threesomes, they have yet to find the perfect woman who would be their forever third.

Hartley is in trouble. After a hurricane damages her boat, her only source of income, she is desperate to get it repaired. The problem is, she is not the only one needed to fix damages and she is struggling finding someone to take on the job and fix it in the needed timeframe. When she runs into Jonathan she has hope. Despite being booked solid, he agrees to take on her job and sets out to convince Cruz, who was not too hard a sale once he meets her.

One of the things I enjoyed most about this story was the slower build up of Jonathan, Cruz and Hartley's relationship. They get to know each other before exploring their strong feelings and chemistry. Hartley was new to menages and BDSM, but took to both very well once they get there. They developed a sweet relationship that was passionate and emotional. I also loved how Jonathan and Cruz began exploring their physical relationship as well once Hartley was added to the mix.

Theirs to Take is the fourth book in the Blasphemy series by author Laura Kaye and a complete standalone. I have not read the others in the series and had no trouble with following along. The storyline is completely panty melting and the characters are appealing. I quickly became engrossed in the story and was not ready for the book to end when it did.

Hartley is assessing the damage to her catamaran after a hurricane has passed the area. She discovers it was damaged by another boat and is in a hurry to get it fixed. Her boat is the main form of income and needs it fixed for a boat show in three weeks. Hartley then meets Jonathan, who is in the boat restoration business along with Cruz, a friend, and fellow Navy SEAL. Hartley’s and Jonathan’s attraction is evident from their first meeting, but what she doesn’t realize is that Jonathan and Cruz like to share everything.

What will happen when Cruz meets Hartley? Will Jonathan share Hartley with Cruz? Will Hartley be willing to date both Jonathan and Cruz?

Deliciously Naughty!

This book is part of the Blasphemy series by Laura Kaye, involving Masters Jonathan and Cruz.  Best friends that gave been through the Navy together and now are partners in their business together.  They meet Hartley following a hurricane that caused damage to the boat that is her livelihood.  There is an immediate attraction, for both the men and Hartley.

This book is full of emotional turmoil and personal confusion, feelings, and love.  They each have questions that they have to answer about themselves before they can move on with their relationship.  Their emotions bring out the feelings of the reader, and had me glued from the first page.  I've enjoyed each book in the series, but this one seems to focus more on the relationship, and less on the BDSM factor (Its there, don't get me wrong, but its just not the focus).

Hartley is such a strong woman, but feels things so intensely!  She has a positive outlook, doesn't stop until she gets things done.  Jonathan is much the same way, just seems to be biding his time until things work out how he wants them too.  Cruz, on  the other hand, has a darker outlook on life, possibly because of his religious upbringing.  Together, they make this book AMAZING!

5 Scorching Stars!

I have loved every single book in Laura Kaye’s Blasphemy series so far and this one just topped the rest hehe! I always love a good menage story, but this one went beyond my expectations and blew me away.

Jonathan and Cruz share everything...especially their women. And Hartley may just be the one they’ve been searching for. I loved the dynamics of this triad relationship. Cruz has always loved Jonathan, but has always hidden his true feelings. Hartley senses there is some underlying feels from both men towards each other and she is the perfect one to help bring them to light. I love how she’s strong and is open to try new things with them. How they learn to love each other and prove each other are equals in the relationship.

Theirs to Take is a fast paced with a slowish burn (if that makes sense) story that will set your heart ablaze. When these three hit the sheets, it’s nothing short of combustible. Seriously, melt your kindles (and panties) HOT! Another fantabulous addition to the Blasphemy series!

I never thought that this series could any hotter but Laura proved me wrong. Jonathan and Cruz two hottie's who don't mind sharing if the girl is right. When Hartley Farren commissions them to fix her storm damaged boat, they know they've found the one for them. Will Hartley be able to submit to two Doms or it just one too many for her? The heat level of this book is off the charts. I can't wait to see what Laura wows us with next!
