Blurb
For three gay men in love, opening the closet door could be a risky move.
Sheriff Casey Barlow has a slick, media-savvy challenger out to beat him in the upcoming election. Casey's damned good at his job, but he hasn't kissed the right asses, and early polls suggest voters like his opponent's style. Coming out now, let alone revealing his relationship with two men, could sink any hope of keeping his badge.
Scott Edison has a real shot at the NHL. He's playing the best hockey of his life. Whenever he can, he travels home to his gruff sheriff and their laid-back cowboy, but there are no out gay players in the NHL. As a rookie working his ass off to be called up, he can't afford to make waves.
Will Rice always figured he'd live alone, managing Graham and Annmarie Slater's cattle ranch, but a hot, young hockey player and a compact, muscled lawman rearranged his plans. Even though he's older and lanky and ordinary, he's been sharing their lives and their beds. He doesn't need to be out— isn't sure he ever wants the Slaters to know about him. Life's good the way things are.
Then Graham and Annmarie are killed in a hit and run that may not be an accident. As Will grieves, and Casey investigates, the coming changes will shake all their lives.

My Rating - 4.5 Stars!
Kaje Harper's Changes Coming Down is a riveting menage romance.
This is a story of an established triad. Casey, Scott, and Will are three closeted men who are all pretending to just be three friends who hang out a lot. Each man has extremely different careers, which the cover perfectly illustrates, making the story even more interesting. I don't often get to read about three men who are already an established triad, so I was extra excited for this one.
Damn, these are three men who work tremendously well together, in and out of bed. The men are all equal and I love the age gaps. Scotty's young but every bit an equal part of them. I never felt that something was missing from their relationship, and I absolutely love them together.
Their story is emotional, with the distance and the problems that come with being closeted. It also includes some suspense, which just adds to their tale.
As I've come to expect from Kaje Harper, the writing is wonderful, with well developed characters, flawless dialogue, and a riveting storyline. With alternating povs, she expertly draws the reader into the emotions, with both the emotions and heat jumping off the pages.
Changes Coming Down is a super hot romance. As an avid fan of menage romances, this one definitely satisfied. As this is the first in the Changes series, I can't wait for the next one. With this HFN ending, I am excited to see what happens next for these men.
