This is another series I got into recently, titled Warts & Claws Inc. Each book features a threesome in a different relationship dynamic. I’m a big fan of poly threesomes so I was absolutely giddy when I discovered this series! The sex is also raunchy—there’s no shyness here, and if you’re into safe, consensual BDSM, this is going to be a treat.
At time of writing this post, I’ve only read books 1 and 2, so I’m covering those. Books 3 and 4 have been released so I know what I’m going to be reading the next few days…
Not So Kind Regards
Title: Not So Kind Regards (Warts & Claws Inc. Book 1)
Author: Clio Evans
Genre: Erotica/Romance/Urban Fantasy
Paring Type: M/M/F
Spice Rating (out of 5): ♥♥♥♥♥—Raunchy!!
Summary:
It’s just another Monster Monday…
Inferna expected many things to happen— but sparks flying between her, the office rival, and his lover was not one of them.
Calen is a nerdy omega witch, one that Inferna wants to sink her teeth into. Art is a stuck-up boss but can be a little more charming outside the regular 9-5.
After an evil HR agent shows up with an agenda, everything starts to change. No one is safe, tensions are high, and the creatures of Warts & Claws Inc will have to fight spell and claw to make it to the weekend.
Can Inferna, Calen, and Art survive a work week from hell while discovering a love that’s off the charts?
Content Warnings: Contains some fantasy genitalia, like vagina fangs, and BDSM scenarios.
The series kicks off with an introduction to the bosses of two different tech companies. One company is an office of monsters, headed by Inferna, a demon. The other is an office of witches, headed by Art. In this series, witches are close to human, but not quite.
And, of course, the two bosses don’t get along.
Then the two companies are merged by their CEOs and forced to share a single office level. Things heat up between Inferna and Art, with Calen—Art’s lover—caught in the middle during his heat. But the office also gets dangerous, because a new HR representative is endangering the lives of the employees with a mysterious, evil scheme.
The plot continues throughout the series, so these are books that you’ll want to read in order. It’s best if you read all of them if you want to fully understand the plot. If you’re only here for one specific relationship dynamic, you could probably read the one you want just for the sex content alone. But the plot is actually interesting, so I don’t recommend skipping a book!
Inferna is a fiercely protective boss; she’s really cool and I wouldn’t mind a 9-5 job under her. Art has some hidden insecurities and needs a safe space to let his guard down. Calen gets the best of both worlds. By the way, there’s switching in here! Switch supremacy!! 🥳
The worldbuilding comes together on the fly and sometimes feels like it, but overall it’s a lot of fun. You get tidbits about pixies, succubi, and witches. There’s hinted conflict with humans, witches, and monsters that happened in the past. There are betrayals, action scenes, ritual magic, and fated soulmates. There’s quite a bit going on, but that just means you won’t get bored.
And the sex is very hot. Good, delightful threesome action! You can purchase on Amazon here.
Not So Best Wishes
Title: Not So Best Wishes (Warts & Claws Inc. Book 2)
Author: Clio Evans
Genre: Erotica/Romance/Urban Fantasy
Paring Type: NB/M/F
Spice Rating (out of 5): ♥♥♥♥♥—Raunchy!!
Summary:
Lora expected many things to happen— but sparks flying between her, the new HR agent, and her manticore coworker wasn’t one of them.
Mich is a handsome manticore who goes into rut after a fateful encounter with Lora and Cinder. Cinder is the new sexy HR agent with secrets they can’t keep for long.
The office environment starts to get hot as these three fall into an affair they can’t stop. Love and heat are in the air, but as the corporate enemy starts to emerge, everything changes for monsters and witches alike.
Can Lora, Mich, and Cinder make it to the weekend without losing their newfound love and jobs?
Content Warning: Strong dom/sub vibes with human furniture play. There’s also consensual pain play involved with this one and magical healing prevents any real injury. See the CW spoiler section below for specifics.
Finding a spicy poly threesome book was amazing enough, but a spicy poly threesome with a nonbinary character?! I was LIVING. I discovered the series after stumbling upon this book so I gleefully hopped in. I wasn’t disappointed; book 1 was sexy and fun, and book 2 picks up immediately where the first left off.
The merged Warts & Claws company thought the office would return to normal, but they were wrong. Fate has other ideas, making Mich and Lora step right into danger as Cinder stirs up feelings neither can ignore. Cinder is caught in a trap that they can’t escape from…at least, not on their own.
This installment has a bit of sweet mixed in with the kinky sex. Like the first book, the romance hits fast and hard, which can leave you spinning a bit. But it’s just as fun and imaginative, not boring at all.
By the way, if you prefer enby characters to be described vaguely, please note that Cinder is DMAB and refers to their genitals as their “sex”. Personally, I prefer specifics, so I found this pleasing. Either way, Cinder is hot. Have I mentioned I love the cover illustrations? They’re so good!
You can buy it on Amazon here.
In Conclusion…
The Warts & Claws Inc. series scratches the poly threesome itch I constantly get any time I see a hint of a love triangle. Or…any kind of scenario that I feel would be resolved if all three characters just simply made out. And enby rep!! How exciting!!
This series actually helped inspire my One Night at the Horned Rabbit Inn series. It also encouraged me to continue making mixed relationship content. I enjoy consuming M/F and M/M content, but I don’t want to limit myself to just one or the other. And, if I want to see more NB representation in the fantasy genre, I can help by contributing!
You can view the Warts & Claws Inc. series in its entirety here, along with the books I didn’t cover and the ones that aren’t out yet. This series is filthy fun that takes you on a fast ride through several kinks, fantasy or otherwise. I highly recommend it, let’s encourage more threesomes and fantasy sex!
