Something Unexpected: An MMM Small Town Romance (Split Rock Ranch Book 2) Kindle Edition
DOMINIC LAUDER never thought he’d return to Split Rock Ranch. But after twenty years, he finds himself knocking on his aunt’s door. He just wishes he was there with better news. Nick is used to making difficult calls in the name of family…except those family obligations weren’t supposed to come up against a smoking hot ranch manager, his enticing young husband, and the undeniable attraction that crackles between the three of them. Now Nick has to decide what’s more important: his responsibilities or his heart.
MICAH AVERY has always followed his heart and it’s gotten him everything he’s ever dreamed of. He’s married to his first love, his horse-training business is taking off, and life at the ranch couldn’t be better. But his perfect world is turned upside down with the arrival of Nick Lauder. Micah never expected his heart to lead him in this direction, but it hasn’t steered him wrong yet.
RYAN AVERY is still amazed by the happiness he’s found with Micah. But one thing he's learned from his husband of three years, is that anything is possible. When Nick’s arrival opens up the opportunity for some no-strings-attached fun, Ryan is on board. Then the three of them click in ways that Ryan couldn’t have anticipated, and he starts to see possibilities he’d never dreamed of. Possibilities that just need to survive Nick’s real reason for being there.
Something Unexpected is an 80k, high-heat, MMM romance with a happily established couple finding their third, absolutely no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA. It’s the second book in the Split Rock Ranch series and is best enjoyed after book one.

About the author

Rory Maxwell discovered romance novels on her mom’s bookshelf when she was probably too young to be reading them—the reward for being a nosy kid with great reading comprehension. The magic of a dial-up internet connection led her to the wonderful world of MM fanfiction a few years later and she fell in love with the genre. In 2019 she woke up with a plot bunny, opened a word doc, and started trying to figure out how this writing stuff worked.
Rory grew up outside of Washington, DC, moved away, and then came back for reasons she doesn’t fully understand. An artist and writer, she always has too many exciting ideas and not nearly enough free time. One day, she hopes to escape to the mountains where she can work from home and write as much as she wants. In the meantime, she splits her time between her day job and writing MM romance with heart, heat, and happy endings.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2024I love this book... Really engaging triad.
All three of these guys are charming as hell. Micah is my favorite.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2023Those who know me will expect this. I have serious difficulty with sex being presented as such a prime motivation to so many. I must be blind to something here. In any case, this is a good story with a satisfying conclusion even if I skipped dozens of pages with details that contributed little to the main plot line.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2023When I first saw the page count for this book, I was a bit hesitant about reading it. I worried that it would drag and be filled with unnecessary detail. I was so wrong! The author did an amazing job of keeping the flow going with different parts of the story taking center stage.
That meant there were lots of moving parts that some authors lose their way trying to connect. I thought it was done brilliantly here. Some may say they wanted more background on Phillip or Nick’s mom or even Maggie. I disagree.
This was a focus on Nick’s personal struggles with all the decisions he had made to lead him to the present and acceptance that these men really cared for him. What was provided about the other characters was not too much and not too little. There was a solid backbone to the that allowed the progression of Nick as a character and his growing relationship with Micah and Ryan to take center stage.
My only complaint which is just my own opinion is that I could have actually done with more of their exploration in bed. I would have liked to have seen more interactions with Nick and Micah and all three together. Again that’s a total me thing. I haven’t read the first book, but didn’t feel lost at all. Can’t wait for Finn’s story and hopefully maybe Kegan with Izzy? Recommend this one guys! I’m shocked more people haven’t read it.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2024Liked this one even more than the first one. The characters are great and can’t wait to see them all ultimately get their HEAs!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2023It was a story that was easy to get engrossed in and I honestly didn't want to put it down. I liked the characters, as individuals and together, well written, all in all a good read.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2023I loved this book so much!! I love a good polyamorous story, and this was perfection. For me, this was escapism at its best. Found family, a great sense of place, a little drama, and some very nice steamy scenes. The polyamory in this was just so beautiful. I loved seeing how their story developed. I really fell in love with Split Rock Ranch and all the characters in this book. I enjoyed that there was enough plot and drama to keep things interesting, without being stressful. I flew through this book in a day and a half, and every time I set it down I just couldn’t wait to get back to it. I’m excited to read the next book in this series.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2023This was a wonderful and enchanting sequel. I was hooked chapter by chapter, always in excitement and anticipation for what was to come. Seeing Micah and Ryan and the rest of the Split Rock crew settled and happy was wonderful, and I loved the development and inclusion of Nick as time went on. The pacing was fantastic and everything moved with grace.
Absolutely recommend this one!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2024I am just loving this series... hate for the books to end. Can't get enough of these characters. Love that Ryan and Micah and so in sync with their hearts and feelings. It's wonderful that they are so secure in there relationship that adding Nicky, was just icing on their cake. Read the bonus scene as well. So yummy!
