Again, I have soooo many ARCs due and soooooo sooooo many TBR piles, but I need..I'd say a comfort read, but I'm not sure if a dark romance series such as Necessary Evils counts as a comfort read (at least, to normal people). Anywho, I figured I could reread the series, the bonus scenes, and FINALLY get around to reading "Family & Felonies: A Necessary Evils Anthology." All by fabulous Onley James.
["Love, family, and a touch of lunacy.
Dive back into the world of the Mulvaney family with Family & A Necessary Evils Anthology. This collection of mini-fiction stories brings you the heartwarming, hilarious, and sometimes harrowing lives of the seven couples from the bestselling series, Necessary Evils.
These contemporary gay romance tales are filled with dark humor, hot sex, minor trials, and the joyful chaos of married life and parenthood. Experience over twenty stories, including exclusive narratives about two couples in a unique poly relationship, available only in this anthology or on my Patreon.
What makes this collection truly special? The answer is seven bonus epilogues that have never been released in book format, offering fans new content and deeper glimpses into the lives of their favorite characters. Whether you're a long-time reader or new to the Mulvaney family, this anthology offers a perfect blend of love, laughter, and life's little challenges.
Created for those who couldn't join Patreon, and as a gift to loyal patrons wanting a keepsake, Family & Felonies is a must-have addition to your collection. Join the Mulvaney family once more and enjoy the everyday adventures of love, family, and a touch of lunacy."]
Okay, I KNOOW I have a problem with highlighting too many lines (and paragraphs--yeah, whole paragraphs) in a book. But please tell me how these golden nuggets of Mulvaney debauchery and chaos and love weren't meant to be highlighted to hell and back. I mean, seriously! It's Mulvaney family crack. I'm only so strong.
If forced, I have maybe 3 favorite couples. Under duress, I could admit to 1 favorite couple. But they're all just so complex and dynamic and weird and special and trying sooooo freaking hard and somehow so sweet for a family of psychopaths (who are completely and utterly whipped for their husbands).
Part of me wishes I hadn't waited so long to read these gems, but I kneeeeew I wanted to reread the original books beforehand (and now rereading Jericho's Boys next, eventually), and I just didn't have the time or temperament to read them then.
And maybe, fingers crossed, I'll finally get around to starting The Watch series (fiiiiiinally).
Trigger Warnings: Yeah, there's quick a few. The list is rather extensive. If you can imagine it, it's probably rather likely included somewhere in this series.
