Maybe trying to get a few things crossed off my reading lists. Here's K.M. Neuhold's "Devil's Own." It's the sixth and final novel in her Palm Island series. In K.M.’s words, “the psychic, gothic, femboy icon we’ve been waiting for..”
["There’s nothing Devil loves more than giving Angel whatever he wants, especially when it’s what he wants too. The only question is… Does Raven want them?
Of course, I’ve noticed Angel and Devil noticing me. I’ve felt their eyes and the deep pulse of their heated wanting. I’ve also seen plenty of men coming and going from their house all summer long, year after year, and I don’t want to be one in a long line.
The energy of Palm Island is so strong, it’s hard not to get swept up in it sometimes. Temporary lust, the hedonistic thrill of excess… I’m only human after all. But something stops me every time I want to give in and let go.
I’ve managed to avoid getting too close to Angel and Devil… until now. Months of endless, heated dreams and the long, lonely slog of the winter are threatening to break my resolve. And all the tarot cards and tea leaves in the world couldn’t prepare me for what they’re really like.
What if all the three-ways are just because they’re desperately searching for something? What if soulmates can come in thirds? What if I let go and see what happens?
Just because I play the part of a psychic, doesn’t mean I know a damn thing about relationships or how we’re going to make this one work…"]
Raven has been my FAVORITE character from the very beginning of this. He’s so sweet and odd and caring and broken and loving and just— He deserves soooo much for everything he does for everyone else. The least Harold could do (resident gay ghost of the island) was give him is carousel HEA.
I toooootally understood the lack of communication here: Raven didn't want to break his own heart when he finally gave into the mutual lust, and Angel/Devil didn't want to spook him away with how much and how long they wanted him (forever, spoiler alert, it's forever). BUT the lack of communication was frustrating and made most of the novel slow-burn, and I just wanted them to TALK or FUCK or boooooth (both is good)! D:
BUUUT (x2) when they finally fell into the lust and accepted the love they felt for each other, it was explosive and beautiful and sooooo Harold (and George) approved! :D
I'm sooooo sad this series is over. I fucking LOVED this series. It was beautiful and raunchy. Hopefully something equally as amazing is in the works soon.
