Three Day Passes [Paperback]

Sean Michael (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 7, 2008

What do a lifer Marine and a cowboy flight nurse have in common? They love to play, with each other, and occasionally with someone else they bring home. Rock and Rig are two rough and ready boys, as tight as any two lovers can be, living and loving and feeding their pizza and beer habit every chance they get. Then Rock brings Dick home. Dick is a sweet cherry Marine, so green he's wet behind the ears. Rig and Rock have enjoyed their games in the past, but somehow Dick is different, worming his way into their lives and eventually into their hearts. It's not easy being three, especially when the only time they get to spend together is on a Marine's three day pass. Still, all of them fight to make it work, despite the worries of any gay military man, the physical distance that's sometimes impossible to bridge, and the wounded feelings of the one who feels left out, whichever one that is. Rock, Rig and Dick may not be great at showing their feelings, but they manage to get them across physically, their touches meaning so much more than just a roll in the hay. Let these boys draw you in and never let you go, carrying you through the good times and the bad.

5.0 out of 5 stars Erotic!, February 26, 2006

This review is from: Three Day Passes (Paperback)

Rigger and Rock are lovers. Rigger is a marine medic and Rock is a marine. After being away for a few days Rock brings home a fellow marine hoping he'll want to have some fun with them. Although Dick has never been with a man before he eagerly jumps into Rock and Rigger's erotic play. Dick responds with so much enthusiasm that the three of them spend most of their time off pleasuring each other.

The weekend passes and they are still together. Being three men in a gay relationship is not going to be easy. Adding to that, Rigger, Rock, and Dick live a military life where they are separated for long periods sometimes. But these three remarkable men find a way to make their unique relationship work through many trials.

Sean Michael has written an amazing book with Three Day Passes. Rock, Rigger and Dick are three of the sexiest, raunchiest, most filthy mouthed men I have ever had the pleasure to read about! Their game of truth or dare was hilarious, kinky and totally wild. Their three way kisses had me squirming in my seat and their all consuming lust for each other is mind blowing. Along with their kink and their non-stop banter, they are patient, trusting, and compassionate with each other. I got lost in this book. I was totally drawn in. Three Day Passes is highly erotic and totally engrossing. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Hot stuff that's all fluff!, July 5, 2006

This review is from: Three Day Passes (Paperback)

Okay, if it's great literature you want, then you may be disappointed with this book. However, if you want to read about the burning desires three marines have for each other, then this is your book. Be warned, there is no real story! Occasionally you get a glimpse into the lives of Rigger, Rock and Dick when they are not engaged in a ménage à trois. Some of the best parts of the book are when the characters talk to each other in complete sentences instead of the constant grunts, sighs and moans that they usually utter.

I gave this book three stars because there is something lacking in the way of a plot. There just didn't seem to be a point to the book. The only climax was the sexual gratification each character experienced in pretty much every chapter, and that alone would garner four stars from me if that were the only measure of this book. I was always curious as to what the three marines would engage in next. Some acts had to be researched before I fully understood what they meant. There was also trouble discerning who was doing what to whom. With nearly every pronoun being "he" I had to read carefully to keep up with what was happening.

Rigger was the most likeable character for me because he seemed the most complex and the most sensitive. He is the glue that holds the "story" together. The relationship between his biological family and that of his "assembled" family is a recurring theme.

There is a sort of slow development of Dick's character, such an ironic name for someone in this book! However, I never really saw him other than a third wheel; the "play-thing" Rock had intended him to be in the first place.

Rock is a powerhouse. Picture a seasoned marine and Rock comes to mind. Throughout certain chapters there are softer sides of Rock described, but never enough to quite satisfy my need to really find out who he is. The scenes where he is alone with Rigger are some of the better and more compassionate parts of the book.

Would I recommend this book? Sure, but only as a "fluff" read.

First in the Jarheads series. I agree with the other reviewer that this book has no actual plot. It is more of a glimpse into the (very explicit) sex lives of three men, two marines and a medic. However, there is potential in their relationship that is explored in the sequel, Tempering.

If you're looking for hot, inventive M/M sex this is the book for you. There is some romance as the characters do love each other, and have a life already established. If you want more to the story, give it a try but be sure to get the sequel.
