Rule Breaker #3
Rules of Our Own
Somehow, I’ve landed myself a do-over and this time we aren’t screwing it up. This time, I don’t want her all to myself. This time we're going to share.
The second the Boston Bruins star forward steps out of the villa bathroom, looking like a god in nothing but a low slung towel…I should turn around and beg for a different room. When his tall dark and broody teammate walks in offering to share the villa…I should run. And when they offer me one weekend of no strings attached fun…I should absolutely say no. But I’ve never been good at doing what I’m supposed to. Three nights wasn’t enough. Not when I still wake up dreaming about her. About them. Imagine our surprise when our new neighbor ends up being the girl we’ve both been obsessing over. This time, we won’t lose her. This time, things will be different. This time…we’re ready to share. They're mine to own, possess, consume. they just don't know it yet. Rules Of Our Own is an interconnected standalone extra spicy NHL Hockey Romance with a MMF why-choose style HEA. Forced proximity, bi-awakening, where the guys are obsessed with her as they are with each other.

The nickname “kitten” should be banned from books.

First I need to get this out...
J. Wilder just wrote the hottest MMF scene, I have quite possibly ever read. It had me blushing in the dark when I was all alone. I got flustered and if you know me, I read A LOT of smutt and flustering doesn't happen often. I'm talking Dominant male, Biawakening, teacher moment that honestly had me squeaking. Welcome done Ma'am. WELL DONE.
In University Mia had two best friends, River and Alex. Opposites and completely in balance, she couldn't help but fall in love...with both of them. Not wanting to choose, or come between them Mia cut them off, cut them out and ghosted them to try and heal her broken heart. Until...One weekend in Napa when her friends wedding leads to her sharing a suite with her old best friends and this time? They're not letting her go again.
This was such a good read, River is this strong, supportive, dominating man who is always calm, cool and collected and I absolutely loved how he took the role of caring for the other two. The fact he waited until Alex was ready to be open with himself, did everything at his pace and always reminded both Mia and Alex, he had them was amazing. Mia was this amazing doctor who had left an abusive relationship and was trying to find her feet, she had to give up a little control and trust that the boys had her, and they did and she was able to face the challenges in her life without backing down and find herself again. Now Alex, Alex's character development was by far my favorite, and as he worked through his feelings about River and how those feelings played out had me on the edge of my seat. He knew what his body's reaction to it was, but it took him a minute to realize his hearts. The uncertainty him on whether River would love him too, broke my heart and I wanted to hug him.
Over all I absolutely loved this installment in the Rules Series and I'm so ready for who's next. Here's hoping Misty is going to get her NHL god after all.

4.5 ★
the amount of giggling, blushing, and kicking my feet that i did while re-reading this should be illegal. are there some corny lines here and there? yes, but i don't care because mia, alex and river have a special place in my heart and i missed them very much 🫂
still, i stand by what i said the first time i read this because finding one good man to date is hard enough, finding two would be a miracle 😔✊🏼
---
original review:
i would ask the girls in polyam romances with more than one man completely whipped for them to give me some tips, but men in real life are devious so i'm good the way i am (which is with no man at all, in case you were wondering 🤗)

i’m not sure who i killed in a past life to end up here, not in a throuple with two very hot, pro hockey players but it must have been bad!!!
UGH I LOVED THIS. mia, alex, and river were all best friends in college but when alex tried to take things to the next level with mia and subsequently, got punched by river, mia ghosted them and rly said “i will not be yoko ono.” she never thought she’d see them again but her bff had other ideas and put them all in the same suite at her destination wedding… devious, i love it.
this is throuples done right!!! mia was so independent but alex and river were like no, we will do literally anything to take care of you and make your life easier. and while they’re developing a relationship with her, alex and river also went from best friends to more. SO hot, so sweet, just the best!!!

if there’s anything worse than someone with a bleeding heart, it’s someone with a bleeding heart and a martyr complex. and herein lies my main issue with our lead character, mia.
mia was aggravatingly stupid to an unreal degree. there’s obviously nothing wrong with being a kind or considerate person, but when your idea of kindness is something that affects your life on a daily basis, maybe you need to rethink some boundaries, bc this girl was for real the doormatiest doormat of all the doormats.
and tho i would never blame her for all of the horrendous ways jason would try and manipulate, control, or abuse her, i 100% can blame her for never ONCE trying to protect herself. from early on, mia would go on and on about how jason’s father was so powerful that nothing would ever come of her reporting him, but how tf do you know that if you don’t ever even try? if she had even just tried to talk to the police or file a report with HR once, even JUST ONCE, maybe i would’ve understood her reticence a little more, but this bitch straight up refused to do a single thing to protect herself!! she didn’t create a paper trail, she didn’t bother to tell a single one of the various people in her support system, and she sure as hell didn’t try to create any boundaries with jason, citing that she “felt guilty” about blocking his number, even after he had been harassing her nonstop for months. girl, are you fucking being for real rn? 💀
aside from mia’s incredible stupidity, i had a lot of other problems with this story. one big one being the fact that this was a book set in a college sports romance series, but it wasn’t set in college. what was the reason? WHAT WAS THE REASON?!?! i won’t even get into how annoyed i was once i realized that we weren’t even going to get any flashbacks from those years, but instead will move on to how long this book was. again, this seemed to be for no apparent reason bc by the halfway point everyone was already in love with everyone, and it was just a case of waiting for alex to catch up to the others and admit his goddamn feelings for river.
in terms of alex and river’s relationship, i’d have to say that particular aspect was probably my favorite part of the entire story. i liked that we got to see the two of them develop their relationship at the same time that they were building something with mia as it was a refreshing perspective that made the story all that much sweeter. all-in-all tho, the fact that this book was much steamier than the previous two did absolutely nothing to benefit the actual storyline or convince me that these three were perfect for each other. i honestly would’ve thought that anyway regardless of all the smut, so it just felt really excessive by the end.

DNF at 65%. Hockey romance but no hockey? Had to wait 2/3 of the book to get an mm scene but dude couldn’t deal with a face touch? Too much filler not enough of getting to know the characters. Skimmed a lot of this tbh

Honestly . Holy . Fucking.. shit . This book was amazing, I've never read something so great??? The spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ literally. And the love ??? The LOVE you can not only feel it between Alex and Mia and river and Mia, but. Fucking. Alex and river. FUCK. This was so hot and so wholesome?? And it touched me honestly because everyone accepted them . Noone called it weird , it was just normalized and it was just such a well written , beautiful story . Like wow . I'm just wow . I can't . Wow. Best book I've ever read hands down will be reading in the future again. Good night.
This was just as good as the first time I read it . Ugh absolutely amazing so fucking spicy . Just yes .

Stars: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
Troupes:
- Professional hockey players
- Second chance romance
- Bi-awakening
- Doctor FMC
- No 3rd act breakup
Alex and River have been best friends for years, but when they end up falling for the same girl in college, Mia walks away to prevent damaging their friendship. Years later they get a second chance with a weekend getaway for a friend’s wedding and agree to a weekend only fling where the boys don’t let a moment go to waste with Mia. Long buried emotions resurface and they are determined to not let her walk away a second time.
I was blown away by this book! Some of the absolute best spice and MMF romance I’ve read in a while. I truly wasn’t expecting the spice level and was pleasantly surprised. River’s dominant side had me in puddles! I was hooked from the very beginning and flew through the book. I was sad to see it end because I just wanted more of the three of them! If you’re looking for a spicy romance read featuring an MMF couple, do yourself a favor and read this book.

I enjoyed this one way more than book 2. These 3 had a history together, and we finally found out how they broke.
River and Alex are teammates and buddies, and both fell for Mia . Well River got jealous and punched Alex, and Mia didn't wanna ruin a friendship, so she ghosted them both I feel for her since she did like them both and didn't wanna cause problems. Now, this takes place a few years later.
Mia is heading to her besties wedding and is now stuck in sharing a room with River and Alex things changed now that the sexual tension is high between them, and Alex is having more feelings towards River. 🥰🥰🥰
They made a deal one weekend, and that's it. But it doesn't work that way when that weekend is done. Plus, Mia ex is harassing her and makes her lose her job/internship. So they are discovering how to be in a relationship in secret and make sure no one messes with their own.
Plus, Alex learns more about himself, which was amazing ❤️❤️
No ow drama/om drama, no cheating, slight secondary character, drama, sexy times, no virgins

This is definitely one of those books marketed as “interconnected stand-alone that can be read as a stand-alone” only that the author is lying because omg! You see the couples from the first two books here and I was very confused or who is who and who is with who and what is what till the end.. especially seen as this books kicks off from the wedding of one of the characters in the other first books?
Sigh
Read the first two before this that’s for sure.. if I did, maybe I’d have connected with it better + in the author’s defense I’m currently fighting a reading slump.
The spice is phenomenal tho…

i crave throuple content, but i also crave good writing
i have many regrets<3 i'm gonna go crawling back to rachel reid now
- spoilers
i ended up hating this a lot more than i thought i would so i'm going to allow myself a rant!
this book is about 300 pages too long. thank god i finally finished this cause wow. its laughable. all the plot and conflict in this book is inconvenient at best and never actually affects anything, ever. and the characters experience no consequences for anything they do. what little plot there is super embarrassing - theyre really gonna try and convince me the fucking ice bucket challenge was the most genius, innovative and original idea ever? i was rolling my eyes so hard.
the characters are flat and have no personalities besides being really hot for each other. are river and alex hockey players? could have fooled me. this huge aspect of their lives didnt have any effect on them. they were prepared to throw away their entire careers for this girl like the sport didnt mean shit to them. youre telling me the fact that theyre rich and famous doesnt affect their lives??? they dont experience any kind of stress or ANYTHING?? and they somehow won the stanley cup despite NEVER PLAYING A GAME and NEVER LEAVING THEIR CITY? pro hockey players T R A V E L ALL THE TIME
slapped hockey skates on the cover and called it a hockey romance when its just plot what plot smut
every thing just fell into the arms of these characters without any effort or grievance. mia moving to boston, her job, the funding for her charity, all the shit with her ex.
alex was threatened to be traded, mia's funding was threatened if she stayed involved with the boys, jason threatened to go expose their scandal, but there were still NO CONSEQUENCES???? it all just turned out fine. every time. it was ridiculous
and WHY ON EARTH DID RIVER RANDOMLY DECIDE TO BRING MIA TO A SEX CLUB AND TIE HER UP WITH NO WARNING OR PREAMBLE?? AND SHE JUST WENT ALONG WITH IT WITH NO QUESTIONS LOL it came out of absolutely nowhere and at this point i was so done and just laughing at everything
i know people dont read these books for the plot, but holy shit lmao at least try. there was so much potential, but there was no tension, no buildup. they could have been so interesting - their trio in college, alex and river's friendship. their relationship was all telling and no showing which breaks like the number one rule of writing, do better
and also, if i was writing a series of interconnected stand alones, i would try and make the characters from the previous/next books INTERESTING so people would want to go read them but misty, piper, sidney, jax and lucas were all the same person in different fonts like c'mon

DNF at 11%.
The female lead was an idiot and a martyr with shitty friends and shittier taste in men.
What kind of person doesn't know fundraising is hard work? (a nitwit, that's who)
What kind of woman won't block a verbally abusive ex because she feels guilty over dating him out of loneliness rather than real interest? (a victim, that's who)
What kind of woman puts their supposed female friend in a room with two guys said friend hasn't seen or spoken to for three years without discussing it with her first? (a disrespectful bitch, that's who)
What kind of woman puts their supposed two male friends in a room with a woman they are both interested in without discussing it with them first and knowing it could destroy their friendship? (an uncaring bitch, that's who)
What kind of woman then lies about her manipulation while smirking over it? (an arrogant bitch, that who)
What kind of woman upon finding out they have been put in a room with two guys she ghosted for the last three years in order to preserve the guy's friendship with each other, doesn't turn around, hunt up said friend, bitch them out for their disregard and presumption, and leave? (a doormat, that's who)
What kind of people when seeing each other for the first time in three years after being best friends for years, spend their time silently ogling and perving on each other instead of... hugging? catching up? at least indulging in some small talk? maybe show some simple joy at seeing each other after such a long absence? (I felt like they were aliens. Horny, inappropriately-socialized aliens.)
What kind of male best friends who are into the same woman take three frickin' years to start troubleshooting possibilities? (men who not really that into the woman, that's who)
What kind of men choose to manipulate a woman over talking to her? (assholes, that's who)
What kind of woman masturbates in the open in a room she is sharing with two men that she is not involved with when there is an ensuite bathroom right frickin' there? (a person lacking in brains, dignity and respect for herself and the others, that's who)
The whole premise was stupid and made everyone look bad from the get-go.
Do not recommend.

"Of course, I fucking love you. I fucking breathe because of you. And my heart beats because of her. You never have to doubt that. This. Us. We’re everything."
”Being with them feels like I stole the answers to happines, and I refuse to give them back.”

Generous 2,5*
I came for the smut, and the smut was good xD
The stories and characters I dunno, I felt it were too much pages for too little story and character development

“The biggest mistake of my life was letting you walk away. I should’ve fought for you then. Like fuck I’ll make the same mistake now.”
Chapter 50. Full stop. 🥵
Seriously, I loved everything about this book. The second-chance relationship, the friends to lovers, the bi-awakening MM... EVERY. LAST. THING.
There is excellent character and relationship development between the MMCs and FMC. I was rooting for their HEA the whole time. The best part was no third-act breakup due to a miscommunication. While there is pining before the relationships solidify, the book’s overall feel is low anxiety and angst.
I applaud Jessa on her bi-awakening MM moments. The scenes where the two MMCs explored one another were so well done. And this book has some of my favorite MMF scenes ever (one more plug for Ch 50).
Jessa was not kidding about the high smut content. I am damn lucky that both my husband and I are fixed, or there might be an oops baby on the horizon. As it stands, you might want your BOB fully charged or supplied with fresh batteries. This book is fast-burn and VERY spicy.
I highly recommend Rules of Our Own. It is a standalone, but there are character crossovers from the previous two books in the series. You'll have the best reading experience if you have read Rule Number Five and Rules of the Game.

Relationship Type: MMF, fast burn, spicy!

I didn’t finish this but I got 75% of the way through and I deserve the log for that. The main character who isn’t like all of the other girls with her beautiful long blonde hair and training to be a pediatrician that has every hockey player alive interested in her just invented the ice bucket challenge. Bye.

Co tu się stało? Czy osoby wymienione w korekcie, robiły coś przy tej książce? To tłumaczenie woła o pomstę do nieba:
- myślę, że w naszym języku istniej kilka różnych określeń na każdą część ciała (polecam np. wydany w tym roku "Angielsko-polski słownik seksualizmów"), by potem nie mieć w jednym zdaniu rynsztokowej mowy i słów rodem z atlasu anatomicznego;
- dosłowne tłumaczenie idiomów - bez komentarza;
- mnóstwo kwiatków w stylu: "Czarny mercedes w sedanie", "River i Alex stoją obok siebie w odległości niespełna pięciu metrów", "River łapie ją szczękę, nakłaniając by się na mnie otworzyła".
Rzadko czytam angielskie książki po polsku i ta przypomniała mi dlaczego. Chciałam ją kupić w wersji papierowej (wspomagajmy wydawanie mmf w rodzimym języku), ale naprawdę szkoda mi pieniędzy.
Co do samej fabuły, to cóż... Dużo, bardzo dużo scen przeplatanych jakimiś dialogami, jakimś zarysem fabuły i realizacją własnych uczuć. Nie było to aż tak złe, ale mimo wszystko miałam nadzieję na coś więcej.

Short review because I didn’t like the book at all. La conexión inexistente, el amor? No lo vi. Did I could relate to any of the characters? No. Would I read this again? Big no. I only liked one thing from this book and it was the sex that’s all that was good in this book. It was so freaking cringey Que I wanted to climb walls, hate the nickname kitten and Alex used it way too frequently for my liking. This book had nada interesante o del otro mundo. I was bored and In my mind the whole time porque el libro couldn’t hold my attention fully. Big no, also hated the ex. And girl get it, dios mío two hot guys and one of them is intense and toma siempre el control dios mío me next! Bye
