Review: Solstice (Naked Truth Series Book 3) by Candi Fox

Solstice Solstice by Candi Fox
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Letting People In

The last book left us on a doozy of an emotional cliffhanger, and this book takes a surprising twist with Harley finally being able to give in to her crush on her contact with the police, with the blessing of his wife. This is a difficult subject for some people who may not understand how polyamory can work for people in established relationships as time changes them and they decide to alter how their relationship looks.

During the course of this book, we see more of Freya becoming involved in Harley’s life and we discover more about her powers. In fact, her powers seem to be developing more quickly than she thought was possible and she has to reach out to others to learn how to use them. She also learns to start letting people into her life in a more than superficial way, which has a direct impact on her friendships as well as her relationships.

I like how this series handles polyamory and the various levels of emotional connection Harley has with the people in her life. There are people she is friends with, those she has sex with, those who are both and those she has a romantic and emotional connection with. All the people she is involved with are involved with other people too and it’s all out in the open and discussed to ensure no one gets hurt.

There are a few confusing moments in this book, as there were in the previous ones, where things get raised and then sort of abandoned or forgotten about, or half tied off without more explanation. I don’t know if they’ll be raised again in future books but it’s a little frustrating at times. But there is also lots to enjoy, with Harley’s caseload and her romantic endeavours mingling together to produce something interesting and sensual.
