Lots and lots and lots of binge-reading in my near future. Let's start with Heathens Ink (and it's spin-off series Inked). All by K.M. Neuhold. The sixth book to read in the Heathens series "Flash Me."
["Love is multiplied, never divided.
LiamI was kicked out at sixteen for being transgender, but it turned out to be one of the best things to ever happen to me. At twenty-one, I have a fantastic new family made up of my brother and a handful of wonderful friends, I own my own photography business, and I’m happier than I imagined possible. There’s just one thing missing… Okay, maybe two…
Wyatt
When I took the position volunteering as a therapist at Rainbow House, I knew I’d found my place in the world: helping teens who had been rejected by their families. What I didn’t expect was the friendship I formed with Liam or how it would grow over the years into a crush I just couldn’t shake. I’m happy to see him finally opening himself up to dating with someone he trusts like Owen. But when he comes to me and asks if I can help his boyfriend, I feel like there’s more to the request than just a few therapy sessions. The more I get to know Owen, the more I like him, too.
Owen
I’m not sure why I believe so much in fate when she’s dealt me nothing but crappy hands—a stint in prison and enough childhood horrors to fuel all my adult nightmares. But I still hold on to the idea that everything happens for a reason. What I can’t figure out is why fate would plop me naked into Liam’s bed under the pretext of helping him with a photo series for a gallery showing. Or why my stomach goes funny every time he smiles at me. Liam is too sweet to be exposed to my demons, but I don’t know how to protect him…Maybe that’s why fate gave us Wyatt."]
This book...had a lot of drama in it. Not relationship drama (yes, there was a little angst, but a good amount). There was just...each person had their own demons they were battling, and it took me a while to read this without having a complete depressive episode (see triggers below).
Liam and Owen just fell into it easy (it being love and a relationship). Liam and Wyatt had been hovering close to one for a while. Wyatt's feelings for Owen (and Owen's feelings for Wyatt) happened so easily and happily, thanks to Liam. It wasn't entirely easy (see previously mentioned demons), but they stuck together and made it work.
Trigger Warnings: transphobia, misgendering, body dysphoria, drug addition, domestic violence, murder, ect
