💜HEART RIPPER💜 

by K.A. Merikan 

while it’s part of the Sex&Mayhem Series it’s a 100% Standalone, which made it so much easier for us to just start with whichever book we wanted. 

 

It was fun to compare notes, talk about the cute little details, things we already fallen for while we read it the first time & so much more! 

Something I admire in the series, is that it gives me those authentic vibes! 

All the multilayered dynamics aren’t always bright & lovey dovey. 

Not everyone is suddenly accepting to the max, shed’s their old believes or makes a total 180. The MCs have to handle with relationship & real world struggles in the MC-environment, which can go back-stabbing dark sometimes. Same goes for the homophobic church community! 

I loved how both MCs talk about those topics, how they're able to heal each other. Both were so adorable, especially David who’ll win every VIRGIN OF THE YEAR AWARD ever❣️ 

I'm so smitten with him. He is innocence personified. A young catholic virgin, getting all overwhelmed by the big bad biker Raja, but also overwhelms this badass right back! 

He made huge growth spurts (character wise) it was a delight to see how his reflective thoughts & actions took place🥰 

Another part I need to point out was: 

HOT HOT HOT and fun 6ting& smutty encounters. 

TALK DIRTY TO ME! 

 

The side characters were amazing, especially the cameos from previous couples made me super happy! Lucky the nosy brat (my personal fave) slayed it!
