Blurb


--- Bruised not broken. Loved. Always. ---

Clover’s life was perfect a year ago. He’d found four men to love, each essential to making him whole. Each one of them tough in their own way, part of a crew of mercenaries living on the wrong side of the law.

Tank was his loving Daddy, Pyro the wild one always pulling him into mischief, Boar taught him how to cook, and Drake showed him how to use knives in a wholly different fashion.

All Clover wanted was to finally be an equal in the group. So he trained, he pushed, and risked, but when real danger stared him in the face, he broke like a twig.

Now, with one of his lovers taken, Clover can’t find a way back to his former self. Each of the relationships they’d so meticulously built is fractured, and might never be the same.

If their group is to ever be whole again, Clover needs to find the courage he’s lost, but that means facing the monster who scarred him, and truths none of his men want to confront.

Review 

My Rating - Stars!

KA Merikan's Their Property, the third book in the Four Mercenaries series, picks up where Their Obsession leaves off. When we catch up with the Mercenaries, Boar is still missing and Clover's trying to care for Pyro. 

Omg, this story killed me. The spiral, the drugs, the anger, the despair. And then it gets even worse. Boar's time since he's been missing is horrible, and that's just the start.

Th author expertly entwines complex men, tragedy, danger, suspense, and sex. It's messy, it's complicated, it's steamy, and it's absolutely riveting. And, of course, despite anticipating the ending, the author continues to throw in twists and turns that will keep you guessing throughout.

Overall, the series is heavy on the emotional and physical pain. And as for the group of men together, let's just say it's heavy and intense on the want and need. At times there's some amazing tenderness between the men. But best of all is watching the changes between Drake and Tank.


Their Property is a dark polymerous love story, full of growing connections as the men continue to bare their souls to one another. It's a complex story full of guilt, grief, and fear. And it's positively delicious! Put some time aside for this one, as you won't want to put it down. 










K.A. Merikan are a team of writers who try not to suck at adulting, with some success. Always eager to explore the murky waters of the weird and wonderful, K.A. Merikan don’t follow fixed formulas and want each of their books to be a surprise for those who choose to hop on for the ride.

K.A. Merikan have a few sweeter M/M romances as well, but they specialize in the dark, dirty, and dangerous side of M/M, full of bikers, bad boys, mafiosi, and scorching hot romance.

Their Bounty & Their Obsession (Four Mercenaries #1 & #2) by K.A. Merikan

   Their Bounty
(Four Mercenaries #1)
by KA Merikan








Blurb


--- Taken. Prized. Possessed. Loved. ---Clover is an orphan and has led a tough and chaotic life. No stability. No money. No friends. He trusts no one.

His already miserable life takes a nosedive when he ends up in the hands of a human trafficking gang. Someone has placed a request for a young albino man, and Clover is to become the property of a mysterious buyer who will stop at nothing to satisfy their depraved desire. Clover’s fate seems sealed until four bounty hunters appear to take out his captors and accidentally save him.


The four mercenaries want to move on, but when Clover pleads for protection, they offer it to him at a price. In the beginning, the arrangement is all kinds of shady, but as he gets to know the four men who’ve taken him on a wild ride, his developing feelings might become as dangerous as the elusive buyer.


But can a relationship with four such different men even work? Men who kill for a living? Men so full of contradictions?


Tank. The massive ex-soldier eager to be Clover’s Daddy.

Pyro. Wild, tattooed, with a filthy mouth and an itch for violence.
Boar. Ginger, bearded, a big teddy bear who can turn into a grizzly.
Drake. Dark and dangerous, with a tongue as sharp as his knives.

Can these men provide him with the love and security he craves? Or has Clover made the worst mistake of his life?

Review 
My Rating - 4.5 Stars!

Their Bounty, the first book in KA Merikan's Four Mercenaries series, is amazing! 

Oh Clover, sweet, sweet Clover. We meet Clover when's saved by the mercenaries. What follows is an intense relationship between Clover and his men. And in between those moments, there's plenty of suspense, action, danger, and lots of sex.

As an albino, someone is after Clover, wanting him as a possession. His unique looks make him a valuable asset.

One of my favorite aspects of this tale is that two of the men really don't get along. This makes things extra interesting once Clover becomes a part of their group.

Although heavy on the sex scenes, there is so much more to this tale. Each men is completely different, with Clover managing to develop a relationship with each of them. It's touching and full of love.


And one of the sweetest things is the reason behind Clover's name. 

Their Bounty definitely delivers on the steamy scenes, while also gifting the reader with a thrilling action read. It's definitely a unique and emotional tale.

Their Obsession
(Four Mercenaries #2)
by KA Merikan 







Blurb

--- Loved. Protected. Shattered. ---


Clover has found love with not one man, but four. He never imagined such a relationship could work, let alone that he’d be at the center of it, but a year later, his bond with the four mercenaries is stronger than ever.

Each man in Clover’s life completes him in a whole different way. Where Drake teaches him shibari, Boar always showers him with cuddles. Where Tank is strict and protective, Pyro takes Clover on wild adventures.

To truly become a part of the mercenary crew, Clover chose to train under the guidance of his men. He’s itching for action to prove to himself and to others that he can handle the toughest jobs.

But through violence and mayhem, Clover will be tried in ways he never wished for. Old enemies resurface, bonds are tested, and one wrong move can mean death.

Review 
My Rating - 5 Stars!

Their Obsession picks up a year after Their Bounty leaves off. And to my surprise, the description of the time since The Bounty and the beginning of this story is a true delight, full of wonderful humor. Clover in Mickey Mouse ears? Omg, yes!

Clover has been trained, and trained some more, to join this band of mercenaries. As they finally have him working along side them, it's tough to let the young Clover be in danger.

The relationship is getting even better. Clover's still at his men's mercy, he calls Tank "Daddy", and he's as sweet as ever. But, wow, the sex. Yes, the sex gets even better. If you didn't already realize, this book contains a lot of sex. But it's Clover's individual relationships with each man that amazes me.

As I'd expect, the story is dark, the events intense, and I was on the edge of my seat often. But there's also a good dose of humor, including a hysterical cum cocktail that had me in stitches.


Not wanting to give away the storyline, I'll just say Their Obsession is amazing and not for the faint of heart. Words cannot express the level of danger in this one. Definitely set some time aside for this one, as you won't want to put it down. And, oh, what a cliffhanger. I need book three now!

Manic Pixie Dream Boy (The Underdogs #1) by K.A. Merikan








Blurb


---. You can’t hide the cracks under the spotlight .---Dusk. Leader of The Underdogs. Destined for greatness. Lives in the now.
Abe. AKA Lolly. Iridescent. Unicorn.

All Dusk wants out of life is for his band to become world famous. He also wants to have a lot of fun along the way. And to get his rocks off. When he wants something, he goes for it, consequences be damned.

So when he sees a gorgeous pink-haired guy who is the human equivalent of tattooed cotton candy, he can’t help but have a taste. But it’s when Lolly ends up on their tour bus that Dusk knows their meeting was destiny.

Abe is the kind of guy who goes with the flow. He was hitchhiking anyway, so why not spend the week with a hot piece of rocker beefcake, getting smothered by his sexy long hair? And why not play the part of the supportive cutie while he’s at it? It’s not like he’d be sticking around for long anyway.

All plans hit a wall when photos of Abe and Dusk emerge online, suddenly pushing the band into the spotlight. To take advantage of the sudden popularity, the band offers Abe money for staying.

Which means money for being in a fake relationship with Dusk.

Which isn’t even fake.

Or is it?

rock band, alternative lifestyles, tattoos, bisexuality, commitment, instalove, abandonment issues, fame, outing, coming out, life on tour

Review 
My Rating - 5 Stars!

KA Merikan's Manic Pixie Dream Boy is a fantastic rocker romance. 

I was immediately sucked into the zany world of the Underdogs, and loved the intense, immediate attraction between Dusk and Lolly. It was hot and funny at the same time. 

As well, I enjoyed the funny way that Lolly suddenly found himself traveling with the band. 

The transformation of these men is well developed and perfectly executed. Their attraction for each other, which leads to a strong bond, ends with both men changing in ways they never anticipated. They definitely have some issue to deal with when the lines get blurred, but it's a great read. 

It's fun to follow the band and get to know the members a little. As for the heat factor in this one, let's just say it's hot! Hot from the first meeting and throughout the story.

Both men are super fun to get to know. Dusk is impulsive, and crazy, yet super overprotective of his younger brother. And Lolly is a breathe of fresh air. He's a wonderfully sassy and femme man who I fell for right away.

I already know I love Manic Pixie Dream Boy, as well as Book3 You. Forever. Always., so I highly suggest this series. Now, I'm off to read Book 2, Just Here For The Pain.
