Logan,
Catherine, and Rhys have been in a ménage marriage for years. They used to be
happy, needing only each other to be content. Now Logan and Rhys run a
successful business together that keeps them both working hard, and Cat rarely
sees either of her husbands.
On the night of their anniversary, they not only stand her up for their dinner
celebration, but they cancel the vacation they had promised to take with her the
next day.
Hurt and at her wit’s end, Cat resolves to go on the trip alone, giving her time
and space to figure out the rest of her life and whether or not it will include
Logan and Rhys.
Returning home to find the woman they both love and take for granted missing,
Logan and Rhys realize their mistakes and are determined to repair the damage
and prove their love to Cat once more. But the road to happiness is not without
its potholes, and things will get worse before they can get better…
I have
read Maya Banks’ STAY WITH ME twice now, and I cried both times.
This powerful story touched on a subject that I have wondered about since I
began reading ménage romance. What happens after the three ride off happily
into the sunset?
In Ms. Banks’ story STAY WITH ME, we find that these ménage
relationships are subject to the same pitfalls as a marriage between two people,
only with two husbands, it is even easier for each of the men to shirk their
responsibilities to their wife, assuming the other man will pick up his slack
‘this time’.
Trying to be supportive of the men she loves and their business venture, Cat has
allowed herself to become a doormat, never complaining or protesting when she is
pushed aside time and again for business ‘emergencies’. By the time the story
begins, Cat is fed up, and realizes that nothing will improve until she
instigates that change herself. Not one to play the blame game, she readily
accepts her own guilt in the situation by not speaking up sooner, but she is
also no longer willing to participate in a relationship that leaves her in the
cold all too often.
Watching as the men work hard to regain her trust in them is emotional and
heartening. These men are not perfect, and they make plenty of mistakes before
they finally get it right, but Rhys and Logan always have the best of intentions
and their love for Cat is never in doubt.
STAY WITH ME is an emotionally charged romance story that cannot
fail to move even the most stoic of hearts.
