| Kit, Gav and Adam are at a crossroads in their relationship. Kit and Adam are married and they want Gav as a permanent member of the family and not as a temporary third. It's been six months since the ultimatum given by Kit and Adam and Gav is nowhere near a decision. He must risk a relationship with two people he loves even with its history of failed relationships or remain only with the friendship?
Just One More is a great book about a couple who added a third in their relationship and all the changes and obstacles they must overcome to become a unit. I would be more interested in the history is the third partner, Gav, was more sympathetic (or in my opinion, more realistic). Kit and Adam had an open marriage. They bring a third to meet their private needs but they only act together. Gav is the last third they got involved with and the relationship is different. With Gav, they want more. They want a permanent relationship. Kit and Adam are believable and likeable characters. They have an great family life and are happy together. But both recognize that they need more, they have other needs that the other can't satisfy. Adam needs a male lover to be happy. And Kit needs a lover willing to give her children so she can have the big family she wants. My problem is with the character of Gav. Gav is thirty eight years old and has five children. All with different mothers (he has twins so there are four women he got pregnant). When I first read this, I could only wonder whether he had been introduced to condoms. I know he is a poor man with a difficult past and that he has done many stupid things in life and that now he's finally settling in life, but this is too much. Aside from that detail, Just One More was an enjoyable read. The author knows how to tell her story in order to captivate the reader and make the experience most pleasurable.
