About The Handy Men:

Jack and Dean love each other, but they’re missing the woman to complete their triangle. When newly divorced Paige Richards buys a Bed and Breakfast on Hamlet Island and employs them to help her fix the inn up, Jack and Dean are sure they’ve found the one they’ve been looking for. Despite the playful, sexy clues they drop, luscious Paige is reticent about getting involved, even when they set the stage so she can stumble on them in action. They can tell by her responses she wants to join them, but rumors travel fast on the small island, and tales of a threesome could get back to the conservative, family vacation crowd who won’t patronize those with an alternative lifestyle. And the last thing they want for Paige is the B&B’s rooms…and her bank account…to remain empty. But Jack and Dean will stop at nothing to prove to Paige that she can have it all…with them.

This was a quick steamy read, one that I did enjoy even though I had a hard time connecting with the characters. There were several different issues that the threesome had to overcome in order to get their HEA. 
One of the problems the threesome had was her family, the other was a ex-girlfriend of Jack and Dean's. I would have been happy with one of the problems but both of them seemed to much.  

Excerpt:


"Earth to Paige?"


    Paige took in a deep, shuddering breath. A grey UConn sweatshirt filled her vision.


    Warm hands on her upper arms made her shiver. "Jesus, Paige, you're an icicle."


    "D-Dean," she said, still gulping breaths.


    The joggers had been Dean and Jack, her handymen and the first friends she made on Hamlet Island last year. And now they were standing in front of her looking so concerned.
She didn't protest when Jack took the coffee out of her hand. Didn't move when Dean stripped his sweatshirt off and plunked it over her head. Then he started rubbing her arms, and reality snapped back into place.


    His shirt was toasty warm and smelled like his spicy aftershave.
"I'm okay," she said, stepping away from the vigorous caress that she was enjoying too much.


Dean was naked from the waist up, his six-pack in full display. Paige tore her eyes from his tight jogging shorts as she slipped her arms through the sleeves of his sweatshirt. The shaking subsided as the fleece covered her like a comforting blanket.


    "Thanks," she said to Jack, who handed her back the cup of coffee.


    "You sure you're okay?” Jack's deep voice rumbled through her. Even though he was fully clothed, he was just as handsome as Dean. Jack had dirty-blond hair that he wore long, whereas Dean's dark hair was shorn close to his skull. She knew from watching them work shirtless, that Jack had tattoos all over his fabulous chest, while Dean's tanned and toned body was unmarked.


    "Yeah," Paige muttered, forcing herself to stop eye-fucking them. They were a good five years older than her, in better shape, oh and yeah, in a committed relationship—with each other.


"I must have fallen asleep on my feet or something.” She gave a shaky laugh.


    "You poor thing. You've been working yourself ragged." Jack stroked her hair and it felt so damned good she almost burst into tears.


    "Come on, let's get you back inside.” Dean slung an arm around her shoulders while Jack curved an arm around her waist.


    The urge just to let them comfort her was too great to fight. She hoped they never realized how big of a crush she had on both of them.
