About this ebook

Meet—or should I say meat—Porter Duke. He serves up a large portion of big beef all alone, but he doesn't want to claim Jillian Murphy by himself. Liam Hogan has what it takes to satisfy the hungriest appetite—and their woman is insatiable.

When Jill's life is in danger, should she go to the sexy DA and new sheriff who have stolen her heart? Or should she protect her men from the one thing that could destroy them—herself?

Remember: With a Vanessa Vale book, one cowboy is never enough. In this smokin' hot series, each heroine gets an extra helping (or two) of Grade-A Beefcake.

While I enjoyed reading this book and getting to know Porter, Liam, and Jill this book wasn't my favorite in the Grade-A series. I know these are novellas and in order to get to the meat of the story we need to get to the climax faster. But I would have loved a chance to see how these guys each met Jill. I also would have loved a bit more of a glimpse into a date or two and how they fell in love. I did love watching them grow together, especially Liam and his insecurities. Porter did make me mad for a moment and Jill did frustrate me. I mean seriously, she has two strong alpha men who say they love her yet she feared going to them for help?? I did enjoy this story though and am definitely looking forward to the next one.

YOU’RE OUR WOMAN, AND IT’S OUR JOB TO TAKE CARE OF YOU Once again, Ms. Vanessa Vale has unleashed a new series, Grade-A Beefcakes, with a great cast of characters, plenty of laughs, tears, mystery, suspense, romance, and more. Grab you a copy and learn why the Duke boys have earned their beefy monikers. Find out about their proclivities, and when they find ‘the one’ how their lives will change—for the better. The story will bring together, Jillian Murphy, a nurse who works at the hospital and also for Dr. Metzgar, Porter Duke, the DA, and Liam Hogan, the Sheriff. What starts as Jill dating each of the men separately will change when she is ready to let them know she wants more, and she wants it with both of them—at the same time. Both Porter and Liam had already talked, and they knew that Jill was ‘the one—their girl—the one they would share together—but now Jill is letting them know she wants that type of relationship also. Jill has raised her younger brother, Tommy, after the death of their mother to cancer. Their father bailed on them when they were young. Jill has put herself through nursing school, holding two jobs, and struggling to make the bills and mortgage and Tommy, at twenty-years-old, is irresponsible and in trouble again—but this time his life is being threatened, and now they are threatening Jill. What they want her to do just goes against everything she believes in, but she can’t tell Porter or Liam, and she won’t risk their jobs either. Stuck between a rock and a hard place, with no clear-cut answers, she decides it is best to run. “Liam stilled. Porter was quiet for a moment, then he spoke, but his voice was low, almost a whisper. “I’m not your father, and I’m not going to bail. I’m not Tommy and won’t use you. While I didn’t put a ring on your finger the other night, I vowed before I f***ed you bare that this was forever. I have no intention of leaving, but you seem to think this is temporary.” “I want—I want it to be forever, but I’m scared. Men leave. At least they do for me. I can’t rely on anyone but myself, especially when it comes to money. I need to be financially independent.” The chemistry and passion between Jill, Porter, and Liam sizzle off the pages. The three of them are all on the same page as to what they want and need in a relationship, that is for Liam and Porter to share Jill between them, and it is what she desires. Jill has several friends, including Parker, who are living a ménage lifestyle. Can she have that too? Or is this legal mess with Tommy going to ruin her chances at happiness? What will Liam and Porter think when they learn what illegal activity is being asked of Jill? Will they no longer trust her? The story has explicit sex scenes, the use of toys, ménage, and mild spankings. “You’re our woman, and it’s our job to take care of you. Love is why we want to make things easier, not because we’re men.”
