Paddle Creek College - Book 1

Review

A hot, sweet, and a little kinky, college MMM romance divined by the gods.

One very serious and controlling football captain, a labrador retriever of a quarterback, and an adorable nerd to bring them together.

When a rich bully takes his aggression out on Seth and Marty about their struggling grades, the very cute Gabe steps in to defend them and offers to tutor them. Determined to see them graduate. Even though Marty drives Seth crazy, and they both clearly have their eye on Gabe, they’re only going to succeed as a team.

Quickly, we start to peel their layers away. We find that Seth is really a carer, Marty isn’t quite so bumbling as we think, and Gabe is stronger than even he knows.

And when they finally admit that each has feelings for both the others, their tutoring involves a lot more than greek mythology!

It’s sweet, a little silly, and a whole lot of sexy. And in the end, Gabe may have found two gods of his very own.

Synopsis

Two rival jocks. One adorable nerd. A bet that changes everything.

SETH

Being captain of the Paddle Creek Panthers is my life. I wouldn’t care that my grades have slipped, except it could not only cost me my shot at the pros, but now the rich kid in town has wagered that if I don’t graduate, I’ll owe him big time. Can this gorgeous little freshman geek Gabe really save my degree and my reputation? All I know is that as soon as I laid eyes on him, I needed him. And I don’t want to share.

MARTY

I’ve spent almost four years trying to get my captain Seth to notice me. He’s hot as hell and knows how to boss a guy around, even one as big as me. To him, though, I’m just the team clown. But when he drags me into this graduation bet, it’s no laughing matter. So why shouldn’t this little cherub Gabe tutor me as well? In fact, I don’t see why we can’t share him in all kinds of ways. Seth is clearly a natural Daddy, Gabe thrives being doted on, and I’m happy to Daddy and be Daddied. Win-win, right?

GABE

Somehow, I’ve found myself standing up to the guy whose family pretty much owns Paddle Creek and put my neck on the line for two of the college’s star players. Now we’re spending every day together as I try and save their grades, and I don’t know if I’m crazy but it’s like they both want me. I’ve never had a boyfriend. I’m not even out to my overbearing parents. How could I choose between them…or do I actually have to when they both want to be my Daddies? After my life comes crashing down, it’s their turn to come to my rescue. Maybe what me and these god-like men have isn’t just a fling after all?

Heaven Sent is a steamy, standalone MMM romance. It’s the first book in the Paddle Creek College series, where it’s always the quiet ones who get up to the best kind of trouble. This book features a geek tutoring two hot jocks, two hot jocks tutoring a geek in a completely different way, a trash panda with a heart of gold, a human ice cream sundae, a revenge curse, and a guaranteed HEA with absolutely no cliffhanger.
