A disastrous first date got even worse when I got stuck with the $500 bill. That’s when they stepped in—three silver foxes with power, authority, and the kind of quiet dominance that made it clear they were used to taking charge.
Stuart — the brilliant neurosurgeon who strips me bare with a single look. Jonathan — the charming fitness mogul who makes me feel desired for the first time in years. Dane — the introspective writer who watches me like I’m the plot twist he never saw coming.
Now I’m staring at two pink lines and a future I never planned. The timing is complicated, and I don’t know which man is the father.
But when the truth comes out, I learn something I never These men don’t just want to claim the baby. They want to claim me. Together. Forever.
Filthy Rich Neighbors is a sizzling standalone why choose romance with a pulse-pounding HEA and chemistry that’ll leave you breathless. No cheating, just explosive attraction.
I found this book to be an enjoyable read but I'm always captivated by Alix Vaughn's writing. I love how she writes likable characters that have depth to themselves and places them in a world I don't want to come away from. The story of Claire, Stuart, Jonathan, and Dane focuses on how the word "family" can mean such different things to different people. Claire's life starts out rough but those three men want to show her how she should really be treated. Amongst the banter and trouble is a touch of spice. As I stated before, this was an enjoyable read, an easy page-turning story that will leave you intrigued and wanting more from Alix Vaughn. Trust me.
This is my first read from this author, it was okay until about half way through and they threw in a new blip of a character that was Stuart’s daughter (and apparently she and Claire went to school together). No previous mention of Stuart having another kid, and it made zero sense since he was freaking out so much about Claire being pregnant and his ability to father. Also Stuart’s ex-wife is not the mother of the other child, so who is? Further in the book there is a brief mention of another ex-wife? Also, when Ella (the daughter) lets herself into her fathers house, which she has never been to nor apparently had they spoken in a few years, she apparently doesn’t know his best friends of 15 years and they have never met her either. What? And she throws herself at the other two men. The whole plot line was ridiculous and not needed. There are lots of other issues from that point on and the author spent sooo much time on defending their relationship to the public then in the end just had them move to France were apparently they now have no problems. Oh and it was no big deal for Claire to drop her business that she had spent a few years building (but author kept saying she was still getting it off the ground so no biggie).

Loved it. This was only the second book I have read by this author and I was thoroughly impressed and hooked by the story and characters. The plot and storyline was interesting and was backed up by detailed and engaging characters through individual POVs, each with distinctive personalities, strengths and weaknesses that developed along with their emotional connections to the FMC Claire. There was plenty of steamy and emotional scenes that spiced things up that kept me turning pages. This romance or love story between four people - Claire, Stuart, Jonathan and Dane does depict the obstacles and hang-ups that they face both individually and as a group. This was evident in the parts of the story where both their personal and professional lives were being influenced by how others react but with devotion and perseverance they help each other and find themselves a relationship and family dynamic outside of convention that suits them. The HEA was satisfying and I look forward to reading other titles in this series.

Very good book. Great characters. Unlike other RH books this one really showed the complications they faced being polyamorous. The only problem I had with the book was the heroine Claire-being only 25. She is described as a Dr of chiropractic medicine who had a practice and closed it and spent two more years with her ex before leaving. It takes minimum 6-8 years to get you your chiropractic degree. She would have had to be 16 when she went to college and even then she would have only graduated at 25. It would have been better to make the character 28 or 30. There still would have been an age gap between all the characters. Overall it was a great book with real life challenges and the rest of the medical references were spot on. Alix Vaughn has become one of my favorite authors. Her books have a great balance between spice and great plots. Will continue to follow her books.
Thank you for the ARC opportunity. This book is part of Alix Vaughn’s reverse harem collection. This book is about Claire and Stuart (a neurosurgeon), Jonathan (YouTube fitness instructor) and Dane (author).
There are some bumps along the way with not just those adapting to their unconventional relationship but to the reaction that they receive to this.
There is spice and a HEA for all of them but I never give spoilers. This perhaps didn’t have the angst and tension that others in the series had but that doesn’t make it any less an enjoyable read, each book has different tropes. If you like an age gap story then this is for you.
I think the base storyline could be good but I ended up skimming most of it because the fmc clearly has a favorite guy. When she has sex with Jonathan she calls out Stuarts name. She admits that he is "a fun phase guy" while Stuart is the real deal. It reads like she wants Stuart but she will keep the other 2 as extra hands and sexual parts only. Maybe the story gets more balances and the relationships get better with each guy but based on the first quarter of the book im giving this a no. I didnt exactly DNF but close enough.
This was a very good book and I truly enjoyed reading it. This has a lot of emotions. The first is Claire being hurt by her ex. Then the loneliness, anger, hurt and then loved.
Claire moves in with her aunt and met the guys next-door. Stuart and Claire had a one night stand. They never thought they would see each other again. People had issues with the family. Claire is a chiropractor, Stuart top brain surgeon, Johnathan the YouTube influencer and Dane the author.
I usually love Alix Vaughn books but this one, not so much. I didn’t think the book was ever going to end. The angst just became too much for me. The majority of the story ends up being how evil social media, canceling and just people in general are. If there had been half as much, I would have loved the book. That being said, the romance portion of the story was well written with great characters and really good steam.
No matter what path our lives lead us loving others is the way. This novel was well written,. Showing us that all types of family should be excepted. My own is blended and when my children brought their partner I excepted the extended family as mine too. When I remarried my ex's family loved my new husband as one of their own. Any loving family is a blessing. Thank you for sharing
This is more than just a reverse harem book, it tells the story of a polyamorous family and what they go through to be a real family. This has an interesting storyline behind and fives you a view into what it is like being a different kind of family. It is a good read with a lot of feelings involved.
This is a very good RH romance that starts as a meet cute and evolves into so much more. The MCs are defined, sexy, determined, and are willing to share the FMC, although there are issues to overcome first. I liked this entertaining, engaging, and enjoyable book. I voluntarily read an ARC and this is my honest review.
I DNF this book at 80% because there is just too much drama and there is always a conflict in every other chapter. And there are really big jumps between some of the chapters. For what I read, the writing is good, the research seems to be well done and the story had a good start.
At last a real love story, with all the ups and downs. Covering aspects i never knew, but logical and disarming. I found Ella’s appearance was intrusive initially as i didn’t realise earlier that she existed. Good to know they found tranquillity and respect legally and emotionally in France. I rate this as the very best reverse harem story ive ever read.
Liked this one more than I thought I would. The only thing I would change is Stuart needed to grovel more, and the drama with Stuart’s daughter was just weird and out of place to me. They don’t mention anything about him having an adult daughter, and then all of a sudden she’s there. Just strange.
✨No cheating ✨No third act breakup ✨No cliffhanger ✨HEA
A steamy and sexy read with Claire, who finds herself entangled with three hot older men - Stuart, Jonathan and Dane. A surprise baby, neighbours and a loving why choose romance.

Only made it about 19%. I’m not sure why it bothered me so much, but I absolutely hated that one of the MMC’s constantly degraded/minimized the FMC’s career and profession. I don’t like embarrassment in books, and I was very embarrassed for her.
A really good RH age gap read with an FMC who not only does she learn to adapt to her new life but the fact that her neighbours all want her. Angst free with a nice level of spice.
SIZZLING HOT and STEAMY reverse harem book that will have your kindle fogging over and your heart racing. This is a superb book to read right here. WOW!!
