Title: Candy Ever After
Author: Jo Raven
Genre: Menage Romance
Cover Designer: RBA Designs | Romantic Book Affairs
“Candy, why is your bed so big?”
“… to fit my two boyfriends when we snuggle together at night.”
Only that’s my father asking, staring at the bed in question.
Oops.
So yeah. Unruly Jethro and cocky Joel are now officially my boyfriends. My Candy Boys. I moved in with them, and I expected things to be tense, awkward. I was wrong. This feels so right, and well, hot. These boys are so hot.
But with college starting, Jethro returning to work at the bookshop, and Joel starting his own business, everything’s shifting. Not to forget the fact that Joel still hasn’t confronted his parents about our relationship, that Jethro is still recovering from his dad’s brutal attack, and that I feel insecure, well…
Wait a sec. Insecure? Come on, Candy. That’s BS. These boys love you.
Yeah, I know. The boys and me, we’re solid. However, doubt still lingers. I mean, Joel’s parents hate each other. Jethro’s dad killed his mom, for chrissakes—and my mom has acquired a sudden interest in sex toys and escort services.
So I wonder if true love really exists. Love that doesn’t fade over time. You know, the kind that withstands nightmares and bad jokes, unwashed dishes in the sink and lack of lube.
Yeah, that happened.
These boys own me. They’re sweet, sexy and caring—but will they break my heart, or is this our happily ever after?

When I realized we were getting another glimpse into the lives of Candy Joel and Jet, I did a little squeal. I absolutely loved book one and could not wait to dive into book two.
Jo Raven sense of humor is absolutely great. I cannot tell you how many times I laughed aloud while reading this book. Poor Candy was having a heck of a time with her parents while the boys were going through their own issues.
Candy, Joel, and Jet deserved their HEA. Candy's family accepted Joel and Jet, yet Joel needed to tell his parents what mattered most to him now.
Every time we were in Joel's POV I wanted to give him a huge hug and tell him it would all be okay. Joel had his happily ever after even if his parents would not support him. I truly wanted to smack Joel's father. That man needed a lesson in what truly was important.
Poor Jet, this man had been through hell and was still fighting his demons at night, but he had Candy and Joel to ease his worries. They truly made a fantastic trio. I cannot tell you how many times Joel had me cracking up. This man was proud of his man and girl and would talk freely about them to anyone... Even Candy's mom. HEHE
This book was no different from the first when it came to Candy's inner dialog. This girl had no filter and I loved how outspoken she was. And the fact that her mom was obsessed with needing new sex toys and a good escort service had me rolling. Her mom and dad had me snickering.
By the time this book was wrapping up I really did feel as if the character had received their inner peace and would be okay. They had each other and that is all that mattered to them.
I really am hoping Jet's cousin and Candy's bestie get a book together. These two are funny and I think there is something there between them.
