The Roommates: 1 (Three Player Grind) Paperback – 12 Oct. 2022

Although I found the story a bit predictable, it was still a good read. There were some well written spicy scenes and some nice tender moments between the characters.Her daughter's swimming coaches come to stay in Daria's house whilst she goes on holiday but her holiday gets cancelled at the last moment as she ends up staying at home with the swim coaches Tanner and Colin. And so the tale continues.....A nice predictable read.

I enjoyed the book, its had an easy to follow story line with just enough spice to make it flow.

Daria thought she was only helping out Colin and Tanner when she offered them her home, but it turned out to be the start of a journey filled with a missed vacation, out of this world sexcapades, personal growths, realising their dreams and creating a much needed family. Their journey was by no means smooth, but once the obstacles were cleared, the happiness was truly felt by each one of them.This was a really phenomenal read that I just can’t describe, but I can sure say, deserved every single second of the time that I spent reading it. I went through a myriad of emotions whilst reading it, but the best part was the happiness I felt when they got their happily ever after. This book deserves to be on your must read list.I received an advanced copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review.

I really enjoyed this book much more than I thought I would. I quickly got drawn into this book about Daria, Colin and Tanner. It was very believable and I really liked all of the characters. I liked the background storylines with the swim school and Daria’s demanding boss. It added much more realism to the whole book.

Cover to cover in one sitting! I couldn't put it down.A really enjoyable read! It was light and fun and super sexy! And something I would probably read again!It would have been 5 stars had there not been as many errors as there were (some information inconsistent/missed words/spellings.

Colin, Tanner and Daria knew each other as a parent with two daughters and swim coaches with two students. Daria is a divorcee with a cheating, crappy ex. Ex, Joe, was an ok father. He did pay attention to his daughters, if for no other reason than to show off. Daria and her brother Dustin were two unconventional thinking people. They definitely were beating to different drummers. But Daria was an excellent mother and supported her daughters with a roof over their head, thanks to Joe and with competitive activities. The two swim coaches were best friends from high school, through college and now business partners. Also Colin was bisexual, which Tanner knew for as long as he was best friends with Colin. Colin was madly in love with the clueless Tanner. Tanner was so into training to make the Olympic swim team, again. He had been in the Olympics eight years ago but a torn rotor cuff had sidelined his career. Tanner was working so hard to qualify, his last year of eligibility. The two best friends/roommates needed a place to stay while their apartment was being fumigated for a week. Enter Daria. She was going to Hawaii while the girls Alana, thirteen and Harmony, six, were going to Disneyland with Joe and his new wife/girlfriend, not important. After Tanner and Colin were settled into Daria’s house for the week and Daria was heading out the door, work called in the name of Bernie, one of the partners at the company she worked at. Good ole Bernie promised Daria the moon practically, if she would work the entire week for a multimillionaire $$$ project. Of course now she was stuck in her own house with her daughters off on vacation with their dad. There had been mutual attraction all the way around. Colin liked Tanner AND Daria. Daria liked Tanner AND Colin. Tanner liked Daria. Hmmmm. Boys meet girl. Boys really like girl. And yes, they all land in bed together. Unpredictable things happen. Older daughter almost catches the adults in bed. Almost but she's not stupid. At a regular day where the girls are with their swim coaches, Colin falls hard on the edge of the pool. And....... Again, unpredictable things happen. Will they all come to an agreement. Colin and Tanner have found out that Daria is also bi. Her brother, Dustin also has a polyamorous relationship with a female and a male, threesome. So read the book to fill in the rest of the storylines. You won't be sorry you did.

It wasn’t terrible, it started out kinda rocky and slow but once I got farther in it wasn’t bad. I loved the love connection between each of them as well

Daria has always put her daughters first and when their dad decides to take them to Disneyland at the same time she was planning a vacation to Hawaii, she knows they’ll have a good time, but now what? No time to think how she offered her home to her daughter’s swim coaches for the week because as she’s walking out the door to the airport her boss calls her to demand she give attention to a project she thought was finished. Now she’s stuck at home with the younger hotties working and wondering if they mind her oogling them. Heat rises, bodies connect, sparks fly and her daughter walks in on a compromising scene that splashes water on the reality of Daria’s priorities. It’s too bad because she was hoping Colin and Tanner would realize they’re into each other and the possibilities were so enticing. Can she move past the embarrassment and still be friends or will they forever be awkward at swim practice? Another excellent story in the long line of great characters and plot lines from Allyson Lindt.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much romance was included in a book that seemed like it was going to be mostly steam. I enjoyed the way the MCs' relationships developed on the way to their HEA.

I enjoy all of this authors books, but this one is my absolute favorite! I first read it as a serial in the author's newsletter and loved it. I love the characters - Daria and her daughters are wonderful, and Tanner and Colin are the best. I love the OW/YM trope. I love H's that are swimmers - they really do have the sexiest bodies. I love Colin's unrequited love for Tanner - this one has all the feels plus super-steam. To paraphrase Valley Girl (1984), "It's just like tripendicular, you know?" I would definitely recommend this book.I received a free copy of this book, and this review was posted voluntarily, but I also preordered this book.
