Kirsten Saell and MB Leah of Loving Venus - Loving Mars gave Open Proposal B+ and a Sex Rating of Orgasmic! Whoa! Yummilicious!
(Their review was so fun and interesting, it's recommended that you click on this link Review - Open Proposal and read it in its entirety.)
"Ménage à Review -- This is the one where Leah and Kirsten engage in some spectacular three-way review action. Who's the third? Why, the book, of course! And hot holy damn, is this gonna be a lovefest. We are ALL OVER that thing."
"... a juicy and satisfying menage story that restores my faith that a good f/f/m menage can be written more often than the rare comet that comes along.
... All I can say is yowza! Besides the steamy loving, Rosemary Gunn did an excellent job of showing how much all three of these characters love and respect each other.
... She had a real knack for building the heat while also just making you ache for the characters, especially Roman.
...there was like the perfect mix of lust and emotion."
Rose Nymph of Literary Nymph Reviews Only gave Open Proposal 4 Nymphs!
"One word best describes the relationship between Sam, Eve and Roman in Open Proposal – complicated. With such intense, long suppressed feelings hanging heavy in the air whenever they are together, I couldn’t see this ending without someone getting really hurt. I couldn’t have been more wrong.
...passion among the trio was absolutely sweltering.
...intensity of the emotions sizzling between three likable characters makes me recommend this to all fans of the genre."
Angi of Night Owl Reviews gave Open Proposal a 3.75!
"Ms. Gunn explores the facets of love with taste, tact and lots and lots of hot steamy sex.
... very well written and well paced and had me enraptured from the get go."
