Yes! If you remember, I reviewed the first Exodus End book last year and I gave it 4 stars (gosh, the way my reviews looked back then...). In that review I told you, how interested I was in this story. To continue this trend: Now I wanna read Aggie's story! A domme? Count me in. To be honest... I think I have to read all of Olivia Cunning's books and I think you should, too. There was no female hating in Outsider. Do you know how refreshing this is? I need more books like this. Outsider is a sequel to Double Time, in which Reagan, Trey and Ethan get together. You don't need to read that book first and can start with this one. But after reading you'll probably wanna read it. I loved how each character had their own doubts and thoughts and how important the overall story was. Of course there are some sex scenes in it (which, yeah, very good and very different from each other), but they don't dominate the novel. There is some drama in it - both in the relationship(s) and in the outside world - but Outsider is still a feel good romantic novel. And I just saw that Olivia Cunning made playlists for her books! Disclaimer: I received a free copy through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you.

Originally posted at Booklovers For Life Olivia Cunning is my rock star/erotica queen. I absolutely adore her Sinners on Tour series, and I’m loving the spinoff series, Exodus End. You don’t necessarily have to read Sinners before Exodus End, but I highly recommend it. For Outsider, I definitely suggest you read at least Double Time, since that is Reagan, Trey, and Ethan’s first book. Their story continues in Outsider – and if you loved them in the first place, get ready for more smokin’ hot threesomes with them! Reagan’s life was forever changed when she was chosen to be Exodus End’s new rhythm guitarist – and got into a polyamorous relationship with Sinner’s rhythm guitarist, Trey Mills, and her bodyguard Ethan. Both are bisexual men, so you can expect some crazy hot M/M, M/M/F, and M/F/M scenes. But with fame and fortune comes a cost – Reagan can’t come out to the public with her unconventional relationship for fear of heavy backlash. But keeping secrets only hurts Trey, who wants the world to know and accept the love they share for each other, and Ethan, who is kept in the sidelines and can never show affection with them in public. Can their love last in secrecy or will the truth come out and change their relationship forever? Outsider is another fabulous read from one of my favorite erotica authors. I honestly don’t know how she does it, but Olivia Cunning creates her menage scenes so perfectly sexy, even when they’re over-the-top. And obviously, since it’s Trey, you know they’re going to be over-the-top. I did feel like the book was a bit too long though – the story dragged out way longer than it could’ve been, especially regarding Reagan’s decision to come out or not. Her wishy-washiness kind of turned me off, so I was definitely more a fan of Ethan and Trey in this book. Nevertheless, I did enjoy this book overall – how could I not when the chemistry and sex were divine, as expected from the author? I’m so looking forward to more Exodus End books. I loved seeing more of the rest of the bandmates and Toni – every scene with all of them always cracks me up. Steve, the drummer, is next, and though I’d prefer getting Dare (because, DARE!), I still can’t wait to get my hands on Steve’s book. Thanks to the author for generously providing me an ARC to review. Amazon Ebook: http://amzn.to/2aZl0oW Amazon Paperback: http://amzn.to/2d5LkvW Liked this review?
