My Review
final score
this review might contain spoilers, are you sure you want to read it?
Reveal the reviewI started stacking coins on SaltyTV when this one was released, and I finally had enough to watch it—and wow, it was so worth it!
This story is proof that you don’t need over-the-top drama queens, a million plot twists or secret billionnaires to create an amazing Vertical. Sometimes, all it takes is genuine emotions and complex characters to make a story stand out.
The Plot: Simple, Sweet, and Spicy
Chloe’s world falls apart when she catches her long-time boyfriend cheating on her. Heartbroken, she retreats to the woods for a weekend getaway with his two best friends, Jack and Emmett—who both secretly harbor feelings for her and are determined to show her what real love looks like.
Meet Our Trio
Chloe – Sweet, loyal, and deeply hurt by betrayal. She had her life all mapped out with Kurt—marriage, kids, a future. Catching him cheating shatters everything.
Jack – The handsome football player with a bad-boy reputation, but a heart that beats only for Chloe. He’s ready to prove he’s more than just a playboy stereotype.
Emmett – A soft-spoken romantic with dreams of becoming a chef. He listens, he cares, and he knows how to make a girl feel truly seen. His kitchen date with Chloe is one of the most heartfelt moments of the story.
Let the Love Games Begin
As the storm extends their weekend in the woods, tensions rise—and so do feelings. Jack and Emmett both confess their love for Chloe early on, leading to flirty, emotional, and steamy moments.
Through one-on-one time with each of them, Chloe starts to see how deeply they both care. Jack opens up about his true self behind the charm, while Emmett shows his romantic soul in every gesture.
And when the three of them are together… let’s just say the heat level skyrockets.
The Unexpected Ending
Once back to reality, Chloe struggles to choose—because how do you pick between two incredible men who both love you deeply? In a bold move, she chooses neither… but they choose her.
Jack and Emmett decide they don’t want her to choose at all—they’ll share her love. The story ends in a surprisingly tender and consensual ménage à trois, where everyone’s happiness takes center stage.
Final Thoughts
Honestly, I didn’t expect such an ending—and I loved it! It was refreshing, bold, and emotionally satisfying. I was personally on Team Emmett—his chemistry with Chloe felt deeper and more authentic. But in the end, if everyone’s happy, so am I!
This is a feel-good romance with a twist that stands out from the typical Vertical formula—and I’ll absolutely be rewatching it!
