received an ARC in exchange for an honest review

OKAY! Wanna take a ride on the hot tamale train? GET THIS BOOK!
Emma has been attracted to her husband's best friend, Derek, the whole time she has known him.
Derek is fine AF and Emma and Grayson are a little freaky so they decide to give Derek the gift of exploring Emma for Christmas on their annual vacation.
Derek is a bit wary but in the end agrees.
When things go from just fun to super serious...how do they navigate it? Will they be the throuple of our dreams?

I love non-monogamous romance when done right and this book scratches and itch for me.
I especially love that both men are casually and openly queer and that Emma is accepting with no awkwardness.

Emma and Grayson's relationship seems rock solid and they consider each other greatly.
They have some very wonderful conversations throughout the book that I thought were really necessary to have on the page.
It's pretty clear early on that they have more than casual sex feelings for Derek and that there is sort of an unfinished love story between Grayson and Derek that has not been explored past platonic love in their past.
The three of them seem to really consider each other and are already intimate and intertwined so this, to me, was a natural next step in their relationship since it was obvious from the beginning that they were all feeling each other.

When they separated for a bit (because they have to in order to get back together right?) I thought it was perfectly done and the romantic gesture of showing up and being honest about feelings and fears at the end? Chefs kiss!

The sex scenes were hot hot hot and honestly, I need to know where they got this lingerie for Emma to wear at the cabin.
The men were vulnerable with their emotions but free with their bodies and I was here for every single bit of it.

All in all, it was a fun read that I would definitely recommend to people who like a little 3way love an sword crossing.

💬: "“I want you.” He states it as fact, as if he’s not crossing a thousand different lines by putting it to voice. “I’ve wanted you since the first time I saw you, all done up in white and marrying my best friend.”

Gifting Me To His Best Friend is an erotica and romance novella by Katee Robert. Emma and Grayson are a married couple and every year during Christmas they go to the mountains with Grayson's best friend, Derek. This year Grayson plans to give Derek the unconventional gift, permission to get close and steamy with Emma. Derek stars warming up to Emma and then he starts warming up to Grayson. Their ménage à trois was only supposed to last one night, what happens when it lasts the entire vacation?

This was my first spicy novel with two men and a woman and it did not disappoint me! I originally was told that this book was the "brother's best friend" trope but that was so far from being correct (because the trope in this book is "husband's best friend"). There wasn't a lot of storyline to work with, but there is a little angst towards the end.

The spicy scenes were really good! I definitely enjoyed them, they were creative. There was some roleplaying and even though I'm not a fan of the scenario they were roleplaying, the scenes included some nice spice. I'm giving it four chilies 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ out of five chilies

I enjoyed this book despite it being something I didn't anticipate. I'm giving this book 4 stars out of 5.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5 Stars
