Review: Three, Two, One (321) by J.A. Huss

Three, Two, One by J.A. Huss
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Three, Two, One by J J Huss is the first book I have read by this author. After reading a glowing review by one of my GR’s friend, I was really eager to start Page 1….

I have to be honest and say right from the start….I couldn’t put this book down…I read throughout the night…one reading….no sleep!!!
Why did this story pull me right in despite the mixed and conflicting feelings I have about the entire book????
I kept thinking….this is really bad….I don’t like these characters…but still I kept turning the pages!!!

The first chapter or two grabbed my interest…but from then onwards….I just trying to figure out….what the hell are these three characters doing??? What is going on here?? Porn or more???

What I did not like:
The way the two men, JD & Ark treated the heroine, named Blue. Here’s this pitiful person and within seconds, she’s being photographed as she gives the guys blowjobs….yes, the men are lowlifes…porn makers…but hell, this was brutal!

What on earth was Blue on??? I cringed when I think how she behaved with the men….okay, maybe it was the drugs or whatever…but within minutes…she’s like into them!!!

The insta-love between the three…..really!!!

The sex scenes were not even so so…I thought them unsexy and they felt more like porn movie scenes than making love between three people. Look, I love ménage stories and enjoy well-written and sensual sex scenes..but here..nothing at all.

The ménage part of the story kind of felt forced to me. No, we not gay..so we will just kiss and suck each other’s cocks or touch each other’s bodies, but no penetration!!! Because we not gay…only gays do penetration!!! Really!!

Blue was so pathetic in the whole mix. I wanted her to get some backbone…but no….pathetic!!!!

I thought that JD should have had his POV….why not? We get Ark and Blue’s, so what was it about him that did not merit his viewpoint?

What made me continue:
Weird but true…I actually began liking Ark despite him being a twit most of the time. There was something underneath that entire perverted repertoire that drew me towards him…call me a twit..but hey, just being honest. In fact, the sex scenes between just him and Blue were probably the only ones that I liked!!

The last few chapters made up for most of the story and that’s probably why I continued reading – I needed to see where the whole thing was going to end…good or bad…I wanted to know. And in some way, I am happy I reached the END…because it was rather a sweet and charming HEA…yes, there is that!!! What did you expect?? But let’s just say…not exactly what one was expecting!

There are aspects in the plot that are thought provoking – slavery, illegal baby adoptions, the porn industry – the darkness in the story is something damn awful. To think such wicked and evil humans thrive on the torture and pain of others!!!


Okay, so there were things about this story that I liked but most of it disturbed me in some way. Would I say I loved it? No, but as I said, I couldn’t put the book down, so that says something!!!!!

I am interested in reading this author’s books in the future.
