Bound with Passion

by Megan Mulry

Bound with Passion is part of Megan Mulry’s erotic Regency Reimagined series, and it’s a good read for someone looking for more spice in their historical.

Lady Georgiana Cambury is used to doing whatever she damn well pleases. She dresses like a man, rides like a hellion, and enjoys love affairs unconstrained by society’s mores. When the book opens, she’s returning to Derbyshire from North Africa with two beautiful horses in tow.

Georgie relishes her freedom and doesn’t particularly want to stay in England. Then her best friend, Lord Trevor Mayson, makes a startling request of her. He has to marry or forfeit his inheritance, and he’s been with his lover James Rushford for some time. He can’t marry James so he wants to marry Georgie, and then they can all go about doing their own thing again.

Double Stuf Oreo

The marriage of convenience only lasts so long before Trevor and James realize they want Georgie as their lover too. Most m/m/f romance I’ve read is about two straight men who want to share the same women. She’s the filling in the Double Stuff Oreo (ha! DP joke!) that keeps their balls from touching. In this story James and Trevor are sexually and romantically involved as well, which I liked. The fantasy was of three people who belong together, not of one woman being worshipped by two dudes.

The sex in this book is hot–but graphic.  I don’t know of any m/f/m books that hedge on the sweet side. Also there’s some unlubricated buttsecks which always makes me cringe.

The conflict comes more from James and Trevor convincing Georgie that being with them won’t tie her down to wifedom and motherhood, than it does from society judging them for their happy menage (hence Regency Reimagined). I really liked this books right up to the end which I felt was a little bit of crazysauce that came out of left field. But, hey, this is erotica and you don’t always know who is coming where, right?

Elyse

Lady Georgiana Elizabeth Cambury has been a “wild romping girl” all her life: dressing in trousers, riding astride, and doing just fine, thank you very much. Her father’s exceedingly generous bequest—and her mother’s liberal views of the world—have ensured that Georgie will never be a slave to the barbarous institutions of marriage or motherhood. Or so she thinks.

When she returns from five years in North Africa to boring Derbyshire for a brief, obligatory family visit, she finds herself in the midst of a legal snarl involving Mr. James Rushford and Lord Trevor Mayson—neighbors, lovers, and her two closest friends. Mayson’s father has declared that he must marry or forfeit his vast inheritance, so Georgie blithely offers to walk down the aisle, in name only. Problem solved.

But try as she might, Georgie cannot ignore the passion that quickly blazes between all three of them. When her marriage of convenience turns into something much deeper, Georgie must decide if she is willing to give up the independence she has fought so hard to achieve—or if love is worth the ultimate surrender.
