Avril, Dane and Andrew have been best friends since their college days and now they all work at Caterva BioTech, a company that Dane started.  Avril finds her boyfriend of three years in their bed with some other woman and kicks him out of their home.  Beyond pissed, Avril decides that she wants to have a little fun in her life and asks Dane to take her to The Wicked Horse Vegas as his guest because she is ready to explore a few things.  Dane has always had a crush on Avril but has always kept things in the friend department, but against his better judgement he takes her there, along with Andrew.  After one night, Avril is addicted and wants to go back.  Not so much Andrew.  Dane and Avril start spending a lot of time together at the Wicked Horse Vegas and things progress quickly.  Avril wants Andrew more in her life and the next things you know, they are all three together!  It takes a lot of soul searching, but the three of them eventually figure out a way to make them all happy.

I just loved Dane....such a great alpha with a little bit of a sad childhood thrown in.  He really has done well for himself.  Andrew is just the perfect, sweet guy that everyone wants to be friends with.  Avril is very strong and determined when it comes to business but in her personal life she was more wishy washy.  It took a cheating boyfriend to turn her into the true woman she was meant to be!

Overall, this was a fun, sexy read that I couldn't put down and another great addition to such a fun series!

Wicked Envy by Sawyer Bennett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd book in the Wicked Horse Vegas series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. For reader enjoyment and understanding, I recommend reading this series in order.

Avril is best friends with both Dane & Andrew. They are always going places together and strengthening their bond. Only this time, Dane does not want Avril to go.

Dane more than wants Avril. So does Andrew. They also truly love her and want to keep her for a friend. Will this experience taint all that they have worked for?

This is a stunning example of best friends turned lovers. I love how the author did not skip over the heavy details. Instead, making the story arc about the reality of what comes next. These characters are so intertwined, both hearts and minds - that it truly is love that takes them over the threshold here.
