Drowning in Rapture by Megan D. Martin
5.0
I shouldn't have taken this book so lightly when I read the blurb, although I knew this was going to be good because it's a Megan D. Martin book... But hear me when I say I had no idea this book would render me SPEECHLESS. (Well not really, because I was going all "Oh.My.God" the whole time, so technically, I could still utter at least three words... not entirely speechless then)
This book is nothing close to any feel good contemporary romance you've ever read. Everything in this is just extremely explosive and unbelievable, your mouth would be gaping wide open as you read.
Jewel is a stripper... and not just any stripper. She's the star of the strip club, alongside with her gay bestfriend who performs as Poseidon, and together, they're a tandem. And not only does she strip for a living, she also performs live sex shows with him at VIP parties. But when her gay best friend decides to move away with his boyfriend, she's left alone with no more performance partner... until she finds out that someone's decided to fill in Poseidon's shoes... THE RIPPER.
She's never met him, ever. But this guy knows her real name, and makes her feel all hot and bothered, for someone who's been dancing naked and having sex for a long time. The Ripper a.k.a. Cole is a total enigma.
The chemistry between Jewel and Cole is just purely insane -- a grenade ready to blow. And damn, this book got me turning page after page, like what I've expected from a Megan D. Martin novel -- from their first performance, up to the next.
The only thing that threw me off a bit was Cole's backstory, but going into further detail about him would cause a major spoiler. But instantly my reaction had been: "HOLEE-SHIT!!! WHAT THE F*CK WAS THAT?!"
Another insane thing is that this book ends with a cliffhanger... well of course it did, haven't I learned anything from reading other Megan D. Martin's books? She still shocks me, every. Single. Time. I'm not even going to lie, this book was all kinds of crazy... AND I LOVE IT.
I'm really beyond stoked to read the next book now, because cliffhangers drive me crazy.
