I had caught up with all of my ARCs, requested a toooon more, and proceeded to avoid them. Oops. Here's Lance Lansdale's "Kiss, Kill, Thrill Me, Daddy." Its the second novel in his Murder Daddy series.
["Tatum
Scotty Levinson is a dead man. My (alleged) best friend has stolen my license, assumed my identity, and married my kidnapper on my behalf. That’s not even the worst part. Now, I find out he’s planned a double wedding for us behind my back. He can claim it’s because he’s too scared to walk down the aisle alone until he’s blue in the face, it doesn’t change facts. Abi Kincaid is my kidnapper, not my husband. So, no. I am not returning home for this busted-up, backwoods wedding, I am not introducing my parents to my kidnapper, and I am not walking down any aisles. Contrary to what he might tell you, I am not Abi Kincaid’s property, nor am I his pretty baby, little one, or any other stupid endearment that falls from his unexplainably delicious lips. I’m just a man with a lackluster plan that will allow me to finally break free.
Abi
Tatum St. James is a mystery. An enigma, wrapped in a hot-pink jockstrap and a skin-tight crop top. For six months, I’ve cared for him. I’ve nursed his broken heart. When he’s lonely, I provide companionship. If he’s drowning in self-doubt, I slip a finger inside to remind him he’s safe. I even indulge his newfound exhibitionist kink, because a body like his deserves to be seen by the masses. He can claim stress-induced memory loss as many times as he wants; six months ago, Tatum St. James begged me to give him a bigger, brighter life, and I always keep my promises."]
This book is equally as unhinged as the first. Except, add some serious angst and heartache. I mean, I sobbed for a while (A WHILE). Abi is so irrevocable in love, and Tatum can't trust the feelings Abi has for him (or the feelings he has for Abi) because of his past traumas. It's a constant back and forth of barely concealed "I love you"s and breaking each other's hearts.
And then add in all of the Broddy/Scotty drama (there was a looooot). Plus Fee drama, the Bens drama, parent drama, and setting up for many future books.
Trigger Warnings: drugging, consensual drugging, kidnapping, stalking, religious homophobia, death threats, mention of off-page murder of a parent while son was present, mention of off-page murder of another parent by son in retaliation, use of f-slur by gay men, and more.
