ISBN #: 9781419933998
Publisher Name: Ellora’s Cave Publishing Company

Genre: Erotica/Contemporary/Light BDSM/M-M-F Ménage
Book Format: eBook
BACK COVER BLURB:
Two very handy men mend a divorcée’s broken heart…
Rather than cry over spilt milk, a newly divorced woman throws caution to the wind and decides to seduce her neighbor’s handsome handyman.
Jeff isn’t stupid—Pamela tossed those screws into her sink to get his attention! The fact she’s beautiful and vulnerable convinces him she needs “special” attention. When he has her hot and horny, he surprises her with his partner Casey and a threesome.
What starts for Pamela as a wild, no-holds-barred fling quickly gets stickier as the guys push for something longer lasting.
COVER SNARK:
Blah, blah, blah.
FIRST LINES:
The impulse came like a flash of lightening-hot and searing-all the way to the bone. An idea born of a need she hadn't felt in a long, long time . . . and inspired by one red-hot handyman in butt hugging jeans and a t-shirt.
LYNETTE'S TWO CENTS:
I read HANDY MEN when it was first released and had been meaning to write a review for it, but never got around to it. Since, I first read HANDY MEN I had read it several more times and still hadn't written a review. I figured it was time I did.
HANDY MEN is an Ellora's Cave Quickie release and it is set apart from other Ellora's Cave Quickies, heck even non Quickies with the depth of character and plot that I do not normally see with this publisher. Of course, this is to the credit of Ms. Delvin who has a very well established writing career. It frankly shows.
HANDY MEN packs a lot of punch with very few pages. The characters are three dimensional, well developed and their sexual encounters are off the charts. I was a little concerned with how quick the men decided that she was 'the one' but given the short amount of space I was able to let that go. I don't think I would've been able to do that if the writing and the characters weren't so terrific.
If you're looking for a quick, steamy well written erotica read with a little depth, I highly recommend you giving HANDY MEN a try. You won't be disappointed.

Sounds smexy. ;)
It was a nice little novella. I was really pleased. It actually made me interested in reading her stuff. I know her name from Twitter but never really read her stuff before.
