I generally love Why Choose romances, because we tend to get great character development along with spice. But since this book is so short, it leans heavily on smut and Insta-love to make to make it work, which unfortunately missed the mark for me. Don't get me wrong, the spice was hot, but the (non-existent) plot was just not there. I would have loved to see this as a full length novel where the author spent much mire time developing the story and characters, instead of just a 10 day fling turning magically into full blown love and a pregnancy and marriage plot to end it off with.

If you love smut and minimal plot, this book is for you! Totally my jam and I was here for all of it!

The story follows three brothers, all damaged in their own way due to their parent abandoning them. That is until they meet Georgia who walks into the bar they own and all their lives change!

Georgia is in Edinburgh for work and is only staying for a short while where she will then return back home to fulfill her desires and dreams she’s always wanted. She walks into the bar and she first meets sexy, flirty Finn and her live takes a wild ride from there!

“Making Her Theirs” by Liliy Manning is a whirlwind reverse harem romance set in Edinburgh, Scotland, where—after a small series of unfortunate events—Texan Georgia Presley Henry finds herself in the arms of Knox, Finn, and Lachlan, three Scottish brothers who know exactly what a woman wants. And like good brothers, they don’t mind sharing during playtime. 😉

This book was SO MUCH FUN. I’ve usually got a good smut-poker face, but some of these scenes had my jaw dropping and my cheeks flushing. Each of the brothers brought a little something different to the table (and to lucky little Georgia), which kept things interesting and the multitude of limbs untangled. The plot also picked up nicely towards the end, giving us a HEA to tie everything up nicely.

Now, I wasn’t sure if I loved the pacing or not. We jumped right into the spice where I would’ve preferred a little more build-up, and there were so many plot points I wish we had been given just a little bit more of. Sometimes the flow of spice to narrative threw me off as well, jumping back and forth between the two in some odd places, but I found this read enjoyable nonetheless.

At the end, we received a little snippet of the next book, which I will totally pick up in the future. All in all, if you love reverse harem and big dudes with sexy accents, I’d definitely tell you to give this one a shot.

First, I would like to thank this wonderful author Lily Manning and netgalley for this ARC opportunity!!

Making Her Theirs is a RH / Why choose storyline which I LOVE. I'm giving this book 3/5 stars due to a part of me wishing there was more plot but the smut and romance is a 5/5 for me. Each character has their traumas and thoughts on love, thoughts on why they should not have love and why they should not be in a relationship - part of me wishes that was more expanded on. I also felt like the plot was very fast and I wish the love story in general had more progression (hopefully that makes sense).

Lily manning is a new indie author and Is just starting out so I just know that it can only go up from here and I really did LOVE reading this book!

Georgia is a math loving, smart, independent business woman who had to take a trip to scotland for a promotion. Little did she know, this trip was going to take her on a ride of fiery passion with 3 brothers. Georgia, Knox, lachlan, and Finn all have one thing in common, they mostly had given up on love and the thought of a soulmate...until fate brings them all together.

If you love smut, romance and RH then this book is for you! It is a very short book that very much gets to the point and for me was a very quick read but man, Georgia and these brothers are HOT. I also cannot wait to read more from Lily Manning!

This is exactly what I expected, but not really everything I wanted. I couldn’t really connect to any of the characters, especially the FMC. But if you want a quick, dirty, instalust smutty read, this will do it for ya! 🖤

I feel this book could have been my cup of tea as I usually enjoy these tropes but I could not find myself engaged while reading it, I felt we needed more character development and not just the smut. I like smut, but smut with no story is really not that interesting. We started off well with the story introduction but 30 pages in we get the insta-love and then it’s just smut from there. Don’t get me wrong, really good, fans-one-self smut, but I felt it was missing something.

Smut the f*ck. Some might say this is just 135 pages of straight debauchery and I would be inclined to agree. Also, I'm absolutely here for it. 'Making Her Theirs' is a quick and dirty why choose reverse harem smutfest. So if that sounds like your thing - get ready to dive right in!

Soon after flying into Edinburgh from her Texas hometown, Georgia's planned business trip turned into something all about her pleasure. It gets hot and heavy immediately, starting with popping downstairs to the pub for a beverage and bumping into two irresistible brothers with a penchant for sharing. I think by page 20 our FMC has been cajoled outside and taken into a dark passageway, to be well.. taken in her dark passageway. And to think, all she asked for was a stiff drink. By the time brother number 3 has rocked up to save her from a sticky situation, she's done for.

You can rest assured that despite the family ties, there's no brother-on-brother action. However, they are all enthusiastic participants, with Georgia being intimate with 1, 2 or 3 of the guys at a time. Brothers in reverse harem romances aren't unheard of, it's just something to note, as it may bother some readers. Also, as much as I can appreciate just how good these boys are at taking turns.. there's also one particular scene (reminds me of a revolving door) that left me with some feelings, spelt with a pH.

Thank you Innes Field LLC and Lily Manning for providing this book for review consideration via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

This is not good. There's no plot, it's not written well, and it clearly exists to scratch an itch for people who enjoy erotica for erotica's sake, but I needed there to be some plot, some character development, some "why" besides "I want to be dominated and have a man be in charge of my body and my life" like this is 1950.

Thank you to Innes Field LLC and NetGalley for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

What should have been a straightforward visit for work turns into a steamy adventure as our heroine encounters three brothers who all seem to draw her fancy in their own way. The title overall was not quite for me as the main character annoyed me somewhat and I wasn't as fond of the relationship dynamics.

I liked this book. While a fast read for me, I got into the characters and felt their story was well written and while the author went out on a limb, so to speak, with a genre not often approached, Ms. Manning did it with grace and charm. I felt for the brothers: Finn, Knox, and Lachlan. I think Georgia was just what they needed.

Making Her Theirs
by Lily Manning

Shortly after arriving in Scotland, Georgia meets three incredibly attractive brothers that make any readers reverse harem dreams come true. Georgia is lucky enough to be able to enjoy all three and fall for them. A short novella due to its length, I found it intriguing although a bit unrealistic which was fine by me. I was able to escape into a story I wouldn’t normally escape into. I fully enjoyed the storyline and all of the spice. If you’re looking for a quick, to the point, incredibly spicy book then this is for you!

Thank you to NetGalley and Innes Field LLC for this ARC

• Reverse Harem
• 3 Brothers x 1 Girl
• MINE
• Love at first sight

This was my first book from this author, so im not sure if this is their typical writing style, or just the fact that it was their first RH book, but I feel like it was very smut centered and the story lacked depth, what was very disappointing, because I liked the characters and the setting of the Scottish pub.

The interactions between the four main characters were really good, the spicy scenes are well written, but other than that not much have happened.

There was a lot of repetitiveness with the characters describing characteristics of each character. Every few pages one of the brothers would describe his and his brothers' usual behaviour. I wish the book had more plot, so we could actually get to know them rather than be told how they behave.

The ending was also a bit disappointing, it felt rushed. 80% of the book was smut and then then a fast forward to their happy ever after.

It was a quick read and I enjoyed it, but I just don't feel fully satisfied.

Thank you, NetGalley for providing me with an e-ARC copy of this book.

This was a concise and spicy reverse harem story!

I liked the humor of the FMC and her shining personality. She has been a very easygoing and down-to-earth girl pursuing her dreams when she came to Scotland and met the MMCs of the story.

Spice was next-level HOT.

What I liked the most about this book was the characters' varied personalities. The female character was strong and sweet. Though I have to say the three brothers without a paranormal element was weird for me.

I'd recommend to those that enjoy a steamy romance with some character interaction and not much plot.

If you are in the hunt for a straight to smut story to read in a day look no further!
This is a spicy reverse harem story. The author is very detailed in order to really bring out the scene.
There are two areas that I believe could really lend some strength to the novel: pacing and enhanced character development.
The characters are a touch too perfect (even with the flaws mentioned) , and while perfect for a dream it was challenging for me to relate to them.

Overall it is a solid 3 stars and I would absolutely read another novel from this author

Georgia moves to Scotland from Dallas,Tx for work and a fresh start. What she finds are 3 beautiful men, which seem to be what her life is missing. Oh, and if that was enough they just happen to be brothers. The is definitely not a slow burn .

"Making Her Theirs" introduces a captivating tale set in the vibrant city of Edinburgh, where the protagonist finds herself entangled with three strikingly handsome Scottish brothers. The novel delves into the complexities of desire, possession, and an unbreakable bond as the brothers embark on a passionate journey to claim the protagonist as their own.

While the story promises a happy ending and explores themes of love and fulfillment, it is important to note that the narrative may contain sexually explicit material or subject matter that could potentially be contentious for certain readers. The premise of the novel holds promises for an electrifying adventure filled with romance, passion, and unyielding love.

However, the portrayal of relationships and desires may not resonate with all readers, and the novel's execution may require a more nuanced approach to fully engage and captivate its audience. "Making Her Theirs" presents an intriguing concept but falls short in delivering a truly compelling and immersive experience, warranting a three-star rating.

Hot hot hot! Loved it! When Georgia sets off to Scotland for 10 days for her company, she finds more than she was searching for, and they are hot!
