What are the right words to entice other readers into taking a leap of faith and giving this book a try?
I am struggling here…
I don’t want to give anything away and spoil the story for future readers, but I would like to see the number of reviews here multiply and being more than a handful…


Katerina


It had me hooked from beginning to end and as well as some really hot scenes it had me laughing in places, and crying in others. A bit of an emotional ride near the end which was a shock so keep a tissue close…

Just two people’s reactions to the final part of Mona’s Naughty Nookie tale. Only 99 cents to read the fourth, the final and the longest part :) All in all, with Fall Into Love, Crazy Little Thing Called Lust, All That Glitters and Can Be Gold, Mona’s story is a 130,000 word/400 and some pages whopper! 


I’ve had nothing but positive feedback from Mona’s story… if you dive into the tale, I truly hope you enjoy :)



 


The Simone of old no longer exists.  She’s transmogrified into a woman with whom she can’t reconcile but who she must eventually come to accept.  This new Mona is stronger, sexier and with an innate power that she’s only just coming to understand.  
For Zane, she’s put her very soul on the line.  She’s dragged herself to the outer limits of her principles and has entered uncharted territory.  All for the man who helped form this new creature that calls herself Simone Barranquet. 
But was it worth it?  Is he worthy of her sacrifice? 
And what of Jake?  Is he manipulating her or does he really share the same aspirations? 
When two enemies unite and become allies, the man at the center of the battle is key.  
But will Zane concur?  Is he strong enough to accept them both, to have what he’s never known he’s always wanted?

Goodreads Challenge PLUS Review of Married to the Trillionaires by Ella Mansfield

So, I’ve never taken part in the Goodreads challenge before, mostly because I rarely write reviews. But as an Indie author, I realize how precious reviews are and I’m trying not to be a hypocrite! Hehe. 


Yesterday’s review was of a book I read for the challenge and today’s is also. Now, how many books have I committed myself to? 365. Yep, one a day. And the hardest part won’t be the reading, but the reviewing lol. 


But let’s get down to it:


MARRIED TO THE TRILLIONAIRES


Ella Mansfield


Three stars 


Married to the Trillionaires (Menage for Mankind, #1)



I’ve glanced through some of the reviews on this on Goodreads and I thought some of them were pretty harsh. I actually liked the concept of the book. In the future, men have to group together to buy fertile women. Not only if they want to have children of their own, but also, just to get laid. 


Women are rare in these times, thanks to a genetic experiment that went wrong and left women infertile. A religious group rejected the idea of tampering with nature and only they produce girl babies.


So, yeah, far-fetched? But come on, it’s the story! 


I quite liked it, tbh. Menage is my cup of tea, why do you think I write what I write? But I didn’t like the way the men in the story treated April.  All of them!


Not only is she a virgin but she’s sheltered and her father auctions her off to some of the richest men in the country… and she accepts it? Huh. Yeah. Don’t think so. She’s all, ‘Well, my father wants the money…’ It takes her running out into the garden and shedding a few tears for her to come to terms with her fate. Okay, so I do like some realism in my books. And this certainly isn’t usual behavior! 


Then, after being purchased, the men immediately start fu*king her. They don’t care if she’s sore or hurt or in pain. They’ve just paid trillions for her, they’re going to get their money’s worth. 


In fairness, I think if the story was longer then we might have seen different sides to the guys. I’d have liked the story to be longer, or set in a series, so as to come to terms with the characters. Most of the guys seemed like knobs to me and they were hard to like. It was almost like reading dubious consent sex with an orgasm at the end. I felt like April was in some kind of Stockholm Syndrome kind of relationship… she just accepted it all too easily. And I don’t care how gently bred or submissive a woman is, there would be some reaction to the myriad stuff that goes down in this book! 


So… yeah, I liked the idea of it. It was well written in the sense that it wasn’t filled with mistakes but the plot was too big for the word count. Hence, three stars. Would I read Mansfield again? Yep. :)

I’ve really enjoyed the first two installments, for the writing, the story, and the interesting moral and sexual questions the series raises. 


Patricia Eddy


God, I loved this third part so damn much. A lusty triangle is growing. Nice to read a story involving m/m/f where the main character isn’t obsessed with the girl for a change. Okay, Zane, he likes Mona a lot, but he loves his husband Jake, and that makes this erotic read all the more exciting.


Rebecca


The question above the review-box here reads as follows: “What did you think?”
Right now, I think I can hear Part 4, and sadly the last installment of this series, calling to me…
The voice is getting more urgent by the minute!
Well, what can I do? I think I will succumb…in fact, I must!!!
I simply cannot withstand the attraction of Mona, Zane and now Jake, too!
And to all my fellow readers and lovers of good written erotica out there: Don’t think too long about whether giving this series a try or not!!!
I did not regret one single second of this so far!
…Wowza!!!!


Katerina



So, those are just a few snippets from reviews All That Glitters has collected on Goodreads. I’m a nutter where that site is concerned! Twenty times a day, maybe more, I check out my author dashboard and see if there are any new reviews and comments. It’s a torturous life ;) but someone has to do it. LOL.


As always, only 99 cents on Amazon, grab your copy of part three today. So many people have enjoyed the series… why shouldn’t you? 


With Mona gradually realizing that life is a fickle mistress, she knows she has choices to make.  Choices that will change her future forever.  And regardless of the chaotic tangle of her affair with Zane, she still wants and needs him to be a part of her present. 
But with news of their affair having hit the gossip columns, Mona knows there’s little to no chance of that occurring.  Where once the future was bright, now it’s bleak until the remarkable occurs.  A stranger who’s not so strange turns up at her door and offers her an alternative path. 
To Mona, being a kept woman was as unorthodox as could be, but what Zane’s husband, Jake Harris, suggests makes less sense than Martians taking over NYC.  In fact, he might as well propose that she turn green. 
But for Zane, is she willing to do the unthinkable? 
Is she willing to take on sex god no. 2 to retain no. 1?

Current train of thought…


But then, I am in the middle of a scene… and erotica is what I write… I bet sex is on my mind as often as it is on a guy’s ;) What do they say? Every three seconds? ;) Nah. For me, it’s every two. 


LOL.

Just A Woman .... come out, come out, wherever you are!

So, you’re probably wondering why I haven’t published Just A Woman, when I said I’d be doing so last Friday… I don’t like to go back on my word, but last week, I found some great peeps who were willing to read through Just A Woman before it went live. It meant having to postpone but their advice was invaluable! I’m so glad I waited and it will be going on sale this Friday. :)  Hope you’re as psyched about this as I am!
