Title: Dirty Princes: A Standalone MMF Romantic Comedy
Author: Jo Raven
Genre: Menage Romance
Cover Designer: RBA Designs | Romantic Book Affairs
Once upon a time, there lived a princess called Brylee who had a cat and a steady job and her eye on a handsome prince.
But Prince Ryan refused to put out. So she baked cookies and buttered muffins, without any double meaning whatsoever, and saved her cherry for her prince.
Who was being difficult and not following the damn script.
Then Riddick walked through the door and ate her cookie.
Literally, okay? It was a good cookie, too, with chocolate chip.
Riddick is drop-dead gorgeous, but not a prince. Regardless, Brylee can’t fight that burning attraction.
Even when Ryan does a turn-about and starts showing interest in her, after all this time.
This isn’t how things were supposed to happen. She was supposed to get a prince, not get caught between a hot prince and a hunky pauper.
Come on.
Especially not when said prince and pauper can’t stand each other.
Brylee isn’t above letting two men fight for her. That’s the essence of a good fairytale, right? A fight, a winner, a grand wedding and a happily ever after.
It’s fine. After all, she doesn’t want them both.
At the same time. In her bed. Like, ever.

Reconnaissance.
With a wink at Simone, I get up from my rowing machine and grab my towel, then make my way toward him.
This is a huge gym, new, the machines gleaming, the people dressed in trendy exercise clothes, their MP3 players flashing as they move. Strong, lithe bodies, with barely any hint of sweat.
Self-consciously I adjust my top. It’s like everyone passed an exam to enter. It makes me wonder how Simone and I made the cut.
Not that I don’t take care of my body. I sure do, and I even drag my best friend Candy along when she’s not too busy having wild sex with her two boyfriends.
Two. Boyfriends. Did you catch that?
Total overkill if you ask me. And still no idea how she did it. I’ve been trying to get one guy—Ryan—for the past year, one—and still no dice.
It doesn’t matter. It will be worth it in the end. Not everyone gets their soulmate on the first try.
Or the hundredth, for that matter. Hundred-and-twenty-fifth to be precise. Hey, it’s a good number. These things take work.
And I do work it as I approach Ryan, as Simone advised me to do after watching Pretty Woman, swinging my hips and lifting my chin, letting my ponytail swish against my back.
He’s getting ready to start, draping his manly black towel on the seat of a rowing machine and… whoa.
Red alert. His T-shirt molds to an impressively sculpted chest and set of shoulders, his corded arms in full display, a picture straight out of Men’s Health magazine.
Holy guacamole.
Woo.
But of course I shouldn’t be shocked. I chose him. He’s everything a man should be. He just has to see I am the girl for him.
That’s why he’s single. He’s been waiting for me all along.

MY REVIEW:
Another Hot Candy Novel...I could just devour these books. They are complex, emotional, hot, dirty and kinky. Just my cup of yummy! This is one of those series that strikes a chord with me and keeps me coming back for more. There is so much about this book that I loved and some things I was alittle iffy about.
What I loved was how the Main Characters came together-Brylee, Ryan and Riddick just made me shudder all good. How each came into one another's lives, how they grew , went on this journey of self discovery and just came to realize all they needed was each other. That was what made this such a killer book! The sex was another bonus for me. I loved the heat, the chemistry, between all three.
Now what didn't work for me was how in the beginning when Brylee was stalking pretty much Ryan all the time and he didn't pay her the time of day...that dragged on forever. I was about to go out of my mind. There is finally payoff but it took forever and my rating on this book would have been higher but the "stalking" aspect or the silly games she played to get his attention drove me nuts. I would have loved to see him stalk her some but I didn't see him go out of his way with her like she did him... Not to say there is some payoff down the road.......now Riddick....OMG, he is a doll. Oh he is hot and sweet. He won my heart. He cared so much about Brylee and he had some much problems going on in his life. Yet he saw this beautiful woman and he fell in love... and when Ryan and Brylee got together with Riddick-sweet music got made.
I have to say, this book was awesome and I cant wait to read more in the Hot Candy series.
My rating: 4.5 stars ****
