Pick Up The Houseguest: A Novel About Sharing (and) Temptation Developed By Arnica Butler Issued As EPub

it. Great characters, great slow burn, great initial sex scene. Only thing better if he was supremely endowed and she couldn't stay away from it of her own volition, It was a fun read! The story flowed well and it was erotic, Erik's marriage to Natalie has hit that lullshe's a stayathome mom raising their kids he's a lawyer bored with his job, They still have sex, but it's to the point where it's only the requisite once or twice a week and not very adventurous,

But Erik has a fantasy, . .

This is my first time reading a hotwifing book, and I wasn't sure if I would like it or not, The concept of a man getting off on being the cuckold is foreign to me, but I was curious how it would play out,

Erik's friend Nathan played right into their hands, Recently separated and in need of a place to stay, Ethan moved in with Erik and Natalie and quickly reverted back to his playboy ways, It didn't take him long to start putting the moves on Natalie, and Natalie with Erik's encouragement and permission reciprocated,

As you can imagine, this was chockfull of hot sex, not just between Ethan and Natalie, but also between Erik and Natalie as the fulfillment of Erik's lifelong fantasies had him constantly on edge and salivating for his wife.
But it was also more that just sex, It was a married couple struggling to communicate, a wife finding new confidence, and a husband struggling to come to terms with the very thing he set into motion,

Favorite quote: "A fucking cantaloupe could seduce a man, under the right circumstances, but this is a sentence I had learned the hard way to never, ever, let pass my lips again.
"
Erik and Natalie are a young married couple and parents of two kids, as the story begins they are in Chicago for Natalies University reunion, then they go to a party of Eriks old friend Ethan.
The way Natalie and Ethan interact sparks Eriks long held secret desire to be cuckolded, although he is deeply aware of the conflicting emotions such a situation would bring, Things really start to take off when Erik gets a call from Ethan and tells him his marriage has broken down and asks to meet up for a beer, where Erik finds

himself offering Ethan a place to stay while their kids are away at their grandparents for the summer holidays.


Erik is the classic conflicted husband torn in half by the desire to see his wife taken by another man and the normal convention of a man to protect his wife.
He is conflicted at every turn but his long held fantasy seems to keep pushing the boundaries with the help of a little teasing from his wife as she is left alone with Ethan while Erik is at work.


A reasonably well written story, the characters never quite have the life to jump off the page and inhabit the readers imagination, but it was an enjoyable read.

Arnica has excelled with this beautiful lifestyle book!

Everything they need.
Brilliant character development.
Beautiful plot.
Cant wait until Book Two,
Five white hot pulsing shooting,
Tons of emotional angst for the hubby, Not sure the wife is playing him straight, I'm afraid she's using his kink for her own purpose, I need a POV from her or more conversations between hubby and wife to make me feel they're on the same page, . . cuz I'm not sure they are, "Hot wife" is not excused cheating and this feels like it's heading in that direction,

While this is technically a standalone, It truly just ends without real resolution,

for writing and tension,

But the sequel pissed me off,

SG Ladies: wife sharing, . . enough said Sharing and temptation, . . and sharing temptation. An old buddy returns to Erik's hometown, down on his luck and getting a divorce, By offering to let Ethan stay with them, Erik sees a way to get closer to making his wifesharing fantasies a reality, To his delight, Natalie seems to be game for something far more adventurous than ever before, But as things heat up, Erik cant help but wonder: Who's seducing whom,
