Scandalous | Cala Riley

This was my first read from this author duo outside of their mafia series, and it did not disappoint.  At all. I was intrigued by the reverse harem/why choose angle, as well as their jobs as social media influencers, but really I read it as more of a poly relationship.  I was wondering if it would be hard to keep all of the characters straight in my head as there are 4 guys and 1 female.  I am happy to report that I was never ever once confused.  This author duo did an amazing job with character development, as each of them had their own unique personalities that carried out throughout the entirety of the book.  Which also played into how well their relationship worked.  Oftentimes why choose books the focus is all on the sex and spicy times.  The focus of this book really was about building a poly relationship and connections.  I absolutely adored how their relationship was built out of friendship, and each of the characters had a different relationship with Aurora.  The guys’ friendship was also clearly built over time and they were definitely a family.  There was a lot of amazing sexual chemistry as well as some seriously spicy scenes that almost melted my kindle! This author pair did a fabulous job with the spicy scenes…if you like your books with some spice and kink this is definitely one that should be on your TBR! Aurora, Ezra, Santiago, Liam, Drake will absolutely capture your heart and have you cheering for them from the get go…even if you want to shake your head at Ezra (you will be in good company!).  This book is filled with amazing friendships, interesting family dynamics, funny banter, amazing chemistry and a beautiful poly relationship! I hope this is not the last poly relationship book this pair writes because I adored it and plan to re-read it again and again!
