Noel has spent the past two years of her ten-year marriage to Scott trying to be his Domme after he admits he thinks he’s gay and knows he’s kinky. When she gives him permission to go be happy, to find a guy who can take care of his needs, he meets Keith. She wants what’s best for Scott, but why’d his Dom have to be so damn hunky?

Scott loves Noel and hates breaking her heart, but he’s spent his life trying to deny who he is. When he meets Keith, he realizes this is perfection. He just wishes he didn’t have to leave Noel.

Keith loves Scott and admires the man’s devotion to Noel. He feels for Noel and realizes that, no matter what, someone will lose to make someone else happy.

But then a stormy night changes everything, and Keith realizes maybe the obvious answer to their mutual happiness has been in front of them the entire time…

MMF menage story with 3 likeable MCs:

-Noelle was a class act; she loved her husband Scott, but when he comes out to her as mostly gay and submissive, she tried her best to domme him ( even though submissive herself) and eventually gives him the okay to find manlove. She isn't self-centred/judgemental and is accepting, acting from a place of love. She also acts human and is hurting and isn't all martyr-like!

- Scott was a man who faced tough truths about himself and was open and honest even when it wasn't easy. He was really a man of integrity searching for something to complete him.

- Keith was a Dom with sadistic tendencies who was looking for a serious relationship with a gay subbie. He was a straightshooter, took care of his submissive/s

Scott is lucky enough to find Keith and they click and with Noelle's blessing Keith moves in. Scott gets his HEA, I was fine till this part - plus all the MM sex was hot!
But after this Scott suddenly becomes a non-character, even when Noelle loses her job bcos he was indiscreet on social media he doesn't react - it was like the author decided he didn't need pagetime anymore!
Now Noelle has no job, no hubby and no family - I could sympathize with how she brooded and was generally angry. But for her to get with(the almost fully gay) Keith??? - apart from thinking he was hot, I didn't see the connection Noelle had with Keith. Maybe it was more a case of Keith feeling sorry for Noelle? Anyway that part never felt right. It would have been more authentic for Noelle to move on and find her own Dom.
Also when Keith let the piercing guy see a nude and blindfolded Noelle on day 1 of their being together, I felt it was a bit too much/too early - whether it was her agreeing to the piercing , or that he did that without even asking her.
This is a book which would have honestly worked better with an MM HEA. However the sex scenes were scorching hot and all the MCs were very likeable and even admirable so rating it 4.25 stars!

Wow, read this book now, kinky ménage lovers! This one had me on my knees in a puddle of my own pussy juice. When Ms. Dalton wants to write about a strong dominant, she delivers. Submissives will quiver.

Scott and Noel are a married couple who are finally facing reality. Noel is a beard for Scott. They are best friends and they married each other for various reasons. Hoping to salvage their marriage, Noel becomes a service Top for Scott's masochist desires. Unfortunately, it doesn't work well when Scott requires D/s with his SM and Noel is getting nothing out of the lifestyle. She doesn't like to dominate Scott. She'll do whatever she can to help him be happy, even if it means letting him go to find a male lover to dominate him.

First off, let's talk about the characters. Ms. Dalton writes some of the most realistic characters. I've mentioned before, how many of her real life friends are making it into these stories without them knowing? Noel, Scott and Keith are all different and easy to distinguish in the story. By the end of the story, I feel as though I know them. I feel as though I've been through an emotional wringer as the three try to figure out how to make their relationship work.

Second, let's examine the conflict in this story. It is a painful one to witness as Noel is truly a loving wife. She is receiving the short end of the stick when Scott finds Keith and they find their bliss together. At one point, Noel's self-less acts makes me want to shake her and say, "for once in your life, think of your own happiness!" Ms. Dalton could have easily made Scott and Keith selfish cruel bastards. She doesn't. She gives us a slightly rose-coloured glasses view of how men can be gentlemen. Honestly, are there real people in the world who would behave like Noel, Scott and Keith? I'm doubtful and yet it gives me hope that people are not petty and can be honourable like this triad. The character development and interaction in this story really moved me.

Third, the BDSM in here is fabulous. The D/s is what really sucks me in each time. There are several panty-wetting scenes in here with Keith dominating Scott. Then when Keith dominates Noel, I'm in my happy voyeuristic land. Even better, Keith shows how he can dominate. There are few fancy implements or furniture used in the hotter BDSM scenes. Keith embodies the type of dominant which makes me immediately want to drop to my knees, bow my head and answer, "Yes, Sir". Is there a bit of fantasy dominant characterization of Keith? Yes. Still, he's not perfect and that's what makes him more attractive. Ms. Dalton may polish the edges but she never overdoes it.

This story focuses on relationships with the ups and downs. It shows how communication or lack thereof can either fix or cause problems. It also shows how the way a person perceives themselves may change. Change can be for the better and when people are open to try new things, sometimes they surprise themselves and new options open up. This kinky ménage is highly recommended to those who fantasize about an M/m/f BDSM triad.

I love this book. This was a really good book. Noel has spent the past two years of her ten-year marriage to Scott trying to be his Domme after he admits he thinks he's gay and knows he's kinky. When she gives him permission to go be happy, to find a guy who can take care of his needs, he meets Keith. Scott goes away to a kink weekend he feels bad and guilty because while he's away to play he meets Keith who is also looking for a good time, but Keith is not just looking for a one stand Keith is a Dom and a sadist and looking for a partner. Noel who doesn't want to lose her husband although she wants him to be happy even if it made her unhappy. When Scott agrees to play with Keith he realizes what he has been missing and what it means for Noel. Keith doesn't know what to think he wants Scott and he is willing to share him with Noel for now. This was a really good book it was well written with no errors in spelling or grammar like all of Tymber's books. I liked the fact that it was important to Keith to talk to Noel before he became more involved with Scott. This book had all kinds of kinky sex in it I mean hot! When their is a problem with Keith's rental house so Noel offers to let him move in with them she even gave up her bedroom to them (I wouldn't done it). Noel realizes that she wanted Scott to be the dominant type so when a storm comes leaving Keith and Noel alone with alcohol she speaks her mind. When Keith and Noel hook up with Scott's blessing sparks fly and Keith realizes what Noel needs and she was a sub. I love reading this series and the people of the Suncoast Society and people like Tilly who helped Noel when she was worried about being poly. I am looking forward to reading more books in this series. I have not read all of the books in order because each book can be read as a stand alone. If you like reading about BDSM with a mix of couples than I would recommend that you read this series.

Kitty's review posted on Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews

I so loved this book! No, I’ve never read Tymber Dalton before but the book description had me wondering exactly how this story was going to pan out. Then, as I was reading the book and started working things out in my mind, I was absolutely off the charts happy!

I went through every single emotion reading A Turn of the Screwed. I was depressed, I was sad, I was enthralled, I was enraged then I was finally happy. It takes a very special author to make you feel all of these emotions so deeply.

I didn’t know who to feel sorry for first, Noel or Scott. Both of them deeply in love with each other but living a lie. Then there was

Keith. Yea, I felt sorry for him too. He knew he was coming between Noel and Scott but he fell in love too. He had such a deep respect for Noel and for how she handled all of Scott’s revelations. In fact, Noel was one of the strongest women I have read in a long time. She had me crying and laughing but, most of all, she had me respecting the hell out of her.

Then, that stormy night … yea, everything finally came together. What a little bit of alcohol will do to a person to bring out the truth. And, as everything fell into place and then fell apart again, you went from smiling to pissed-off. And, then, you got even more respect for Noel. She was a fighter, she finally didn’t back down from anyone or anything. Then, as Ms. Dalton brings the story full circle, you become elated.

Keith – the perfect Sadist and Dominant. Scott – the perfect Submissive. Noel – the strong, loving woman who will do anything to keep her man but has a side of her that makes her a perfect Submissive as well. Paddles, whips, piercings … this story had it all and Tymber Dalton did a fantastic job bringing it all together and making you fall in love with all of the characters. She gave you a story of love, dominance and an HEA that will have you on your knees as well as Noel and Scott.

Heart grabbing. Absolutely heart grabbing. I haven't been this emotionally involved in a book in a while. Noel is one strong woman to go through all that. Scott's coming out turns out to be the best thing that could happen. Keith's open mind and big heart made this all come together as it should.

There have been a lot of party books or short stories in this series - this one had the old magic of this series. I would have liked to see more of the trio though.

[Pinkie · Rating 4 out of 5]

I don't really like MM books where a marriage is involved but was happy how this one turned out.

[Robin · Rating 4 out of 5]

What a unusual twist with this one, love the way that it plays out tho. Only Tymber can write it like this. The crap that happened with the school, mama Moog should have gotten what was coming to her in one way or another.

Thanks again, Tymber.

I honestly don’t understand how Keith aand Nole are enjoying sex.

[Yuki · Rating 1 out of 5]

C'était pénible à lire. Pour dire la vérité une torture. L'histoire est mal exécutée et développée. Dans quel monde elle vit cette "auteure"! Au lieu de faire apprécier l'histoire au lecteur, elle braque ce dernier, à mon humble avis. Pour ma part je n'ai rien contre les ménages ou autre style de relations. Je m'en fous mais ça ressemble à du n'importe quoi je dis non! Le m/m est juste relaté sur une base purement sexuel, pas de complicité, pas de moments de tendresse. C'est comme si pour cette"auteure" y a que le c.. Qui compte dans une relation homosexuelle. La psychologie est minable, elle a un modèle de dominant, et de la femme à Gerber!!!! Et puis quoi encore!! Non seulement tu me dis (l"auteure") comment je dois lire et en plus tu me fais la morale. (•_•)! Commence("l'auteure ") par apprendre à développer et donner une approche plus réaliste de tes histoires et après on verra! Les fins à Walt Disney on s'en passera (ils vécurent heureux et eurent pleins d'enfants). Tous ça dans le condensé d'un chapitre au deux chapitres! Vu que le reste n'est que du sexe tout du long parsemé de moralité à deux balles et d'une pseudo relation que même dans un univers doublement parallèle ça ne fonctionnerait pas!!

This story has action from beginning to end. Noel and Scott love each other but realize that it just isn't enough. Scott meets Keith and the connection happens almost instantly. I like how both men id try to be as fair to Noel as they knew how. Noel is dealing with her own conflicted emotions where both men are concerned. So glad Scott and Noel work things out and everyone gets their happy.

When Ms. Dalton wants to write about a strong dominant, she delivers. Submissives will quiver. Noel is one strong woman to go through all that. This story has action from beginning to end. Tymber Dalton has become one of "must buy" authors. She never disappoints you with her wonderfully written stories. You can’t go wrong when buying a Dalton story.

[Robyn · Rating 4 out of 5]

Wow! Tymber Dalton was channeling some Alexa Riley level dirty talking!
Since I love almost every book in this series, I tend to jump in to new ones without reading the blurb, so I wasn't quite sure how this would work out. I loved seeing Scott and Keith get together, but I felt so bad for Noel. But then the storm hit....holy crap-balls batman!
Yes, yes, YES!

[Christine Burke · Rating 5 out of 5]

It was nice to get to new characters and a new dynamic in the Suncoast Society. Don't get me wrong, I loved all the update books that cam before this. But it was time. Some tears reading this one. Tough choices to make and heartwarming outcome.

[Kelly · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was a good read. I don't know if I would have stuck in there as long as Noel did. I would've wanted my hubby to find his happiness and not stick with me. But this turned out good in the end. This was definitely not one of the author's best books.

[Toi · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved It

This will make you cry and be happy before all's said and done - can Scott find what he needs and still be able to love Noel the way she needs. At first I hated Keith but grew to love him. You won't be sorry you bought th s book.

[Mary · Rating 5 out of 5]

As I was reading the beginning of this book I started looking for a box of tissues. I was sure it was going to be another tear jerker. There were tears but with Kieth, Noel, and Scott willing to have the hard discussions a happy ending was had by all.
