Haunted by paranormal abilities she can't control and plagued by nightmares about a demon that seeks her soul, Lily Anima travels to New Orleans in search of salvation. She enlists the help of an unlikely couple: a vampire, Lawrence Justice, and a werewolf, Trevor Pack. The attraction is immediate and fierce.

There's only one problem.

Lily's a virgin. And whatever paranormal problem she's having is what has kept her that way. Every time she's tried to do the deed, something stops her.

Together, the trio encounters magic and unspeakable evil, and Trevor and Lawrence attempt to help Lily turn her powers into a gift rather than a curse. Ultimately, to get the demon off her back, Lily's men will have to show her all the wicked ways the three of them can come together.

Warning: Read at your own risk. This book is filled to the brim with steamy m/m sex, a virgin who wants in on the action, and a c*ckblocking demon.

                                                                        MY THOUGHTS ON THE BOOK                                                              

To be honest I really wanted to love A New Orleans Threesome. It seemed like a naughty adventure and the cover has honestly a great look to it. When I read the synopsis I was intrigued but it let me down big time. The book was different for me than the title and synopsis lead you to believe. In this book, we have a  paranormal romance between three people. One is a Vampire, another is a Witch and lastly, we have a Werewolf. It was ultimately a cheesy novel. 

While this was an interesting premise the execution left so much to be desired. It was confusing and stalled at points. There was little if any character development and the plot just kinda was boring and dry. I found the explanations for various things such as "can't have sex" to have been either awkward or barely there. There were plot holes everywhere and the relationships were jumpy with little to no communication. 

So sex was a huge part of this book, perhaps the main focus of this novel. This was complete erotica in my opinion which I wasn't expecting at first. This book is filled to the brim with male on male steamy sex scenes and then Lilly shows up and desperately wants to join in. Which was basically voyeurism on her part. The biggest problem was that the sex scenes felt forced and mechanical rather than romantic and intimate. It was like a step by step guide to sex rather than just a hookup. Also when Lilly finally has sex for the first time it seems extremely unrealistic. 

Overall I felt like this book could have been a bit more developed, as it reads like an incomplete novel at times. I loved the premise and idea of this book just not the execution.
