Strip Me Bare by M. Never, Marissa Carmel

5.0

I am just ... wow. The conclusion of the Stripped Duet was just so much more beautiful that I ever could have wanted it to be and I'm not exaggerating. When you read that the story is about two unlikely lovers, from opposite sides of the tracks. And also that one of them is a male stripper, you will not imagine the depth of the story you are walking into. This is so much more than a story about falling in love. It's a story about family, sacrifice, survival, perseverance, rising above your life and first and foremost fighting for each other. I loved how each was the other’s strength.
The story is so well paced, unfolding at just the right timing leaving you completely and equally in love with both characters and also swept away emotionally by what happens. This is not a book that will actually make you cry, it has a full on HEA, but will give you all the good feels. It is steamy, it is tough on the characters, it is funny. After you finish, you are going to have to chat with your book bestie about how amazing it is!
