You did it! We figured this one out! It is a truth universally acknowledged (by me for certain) that the Bitchery pretty much knows everything, and really, it's true. Scroll down to see the solution for this HaBO - and many thanks!
This HaBO comes from Becky, who wants to find this romance:
This one’s driving me crazy. I own it, but I haven’t read it in ages my digital libraries are so out of control I can’t even begin to try and find it with no author or title.
It’s a m/m/f erotic romance where the heroes are already together (they live together, but I’m pretty sure they’re together, together too) and the heroine keeps running into them in various places (their home in a snowstorm when her car gets stuck, a hospital? I think, a…furniture store? Maybe?) and every time oops! they have sex. The book starts out “the first time [heroine’s name] met [heroes] she was…” and the chapters with the next few encounters start similarly. The first time they met they had to warm her up in their bed because she was half frozen from getting stranded in the snow. As you do.
Eventually they decide to give being together as a threesome a try and are getting busy in a pickup truck in a parking lot when someone sees them. It gets back to one of the hero’s families (his dad?) and he (the hero) gets beat up because of it…but then they have a really sweet, “It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks, we love you exactly as you are” kind of moment while they nurse him back to health and we end on an HEA…and probably another menage scene.
I’m pretty sure it was a free or really inexpensive read back when I first got it ages ago, but the storyline has stuck with me even if the title and author haven’t and I’d love to see if the story holds up after all this time.
Help me, SBs, you’re my only hope!
Let’s HaBO!

Don’t know the book, but I have to admit a certain fondness for the “we have to get in bed together in order to warm up” bit, if only for it being ridiculous.
This sounds very much like _Risk Is A Four-Letter Word_ by Erin M. Leaf, right down to the repetively worded chapter openings (sorry, I don’t know the word for that kind of style element). IIRC the MMCs are not together-together before they meet the FMC. One of my fave mmf romances, along with the other two in the trilogy.
Yes I came to say the same as Brigit! That is the one!
It sounds a little like Misadventures of a Curvy Girl by Sierra Simone? Although I don’t remember the repetitive chapter headings.
YES!!! Thank you, Brigit and Krista! It *is* Erin’s book–I totally forgot about her losing her bikini top in the ocean the 1st time (it’s been a looooong time since I read it last!) and OMG, the snow isn’t until the 5th time–they just all make out enthusiastically each time until that point, right? (I’m skimming it on my ereader right now because I’m at work and it’s definitely NSFW)
It’s common knowledge that when you’re warming people up who’ve been out in the snow by getting into bed everyone involved needs to be totally naked for it to really work… I grew up in Buffalo, so I should know 😉
You all are the best! I didn’t even realize there were more to that series; I will definitely have to check them out. And I’ll add the Sierra Simone to my TBR too, because I really like what I’ve read from her so far, but I haven’t read that one. Thank you all for your help!
YAY Bitchery!!!!!!
