Mine by Mandy Muse is a Hot and Spicy Poly (MMF) Romance centered around two Hockey Players who can't stop fighting long enough to work well on the ice and gorgeous women who do the team's social media and is secretly a cam girl on the side that they both watch and have she is interested in. 

I have loved this series and how Mandy Muse has contacted the Characters from the previous books, but each one feels like its own storyline, and you're not missing out on other people's stories. I loved this throuple so much; Romeo, Hunter, and Valencia were all very cool people, and somehow, they all worked together in this relationship and balanced one another. I love the nature of the contract of this relationship. It allowed three people who otherwise would have been very slow to burn and hesitant to drop the pretense and go for it. This allowed them all to develop feelings much faster. I think that is why things didn't feel fully fleshed out in areas, especially with Hunter and Romeo. This contact and being on the ice helped them move past things they may not otherwise have. 

I think this might be a favorite part of the series, and I loved how emotional and supportive this throuple was. There were no false pretenses and immediate chemistry, and all three of them went after what they wanted. P.S. I loved that there was no real third-act break; a couple of things happened where they pushed each other away minimally for a couple days but nothing that devested the three of them to break up! Also, Romeo's Spanish dirty talk would do it for everyone! If you love a sports romance, BDSM contract, dom/sub, and queer poly relationships, this book definitely needs to be on your TBR. 

Thank you to Mandy Muse for the Advanced to read and review!
