Feel My Pain

M/M Revenge Romance

By: K.A. Merikan

Narrated by: Kirt Graves

Two enemies cursed to feel each other’s pain.

Zane: “I will burn your life to the ground.”

Roach: “I’m a cockroach. I’ll survive.”

Two years ago, the Rabid Hyenas MC ripped Zane apart like a pack of starving wolves. But he’s not only a survivor, he took revenge that same night. Turns out, one of the bikers is still alive, and as long as that’s the case, Zane will not know peace. Especially since Roach is the dirtbag who caused all the mayhem in the first place.

When an act of revenge meant to close that chapter of Zane’s life takes a shocking turn, all hell breaks loose. Roach’s pain is his. When Roach bleeds, he does. When Zane suffers, Roach screams. So, until Zane can figure out how to lift the curse and kill Roach, he’s stuck caring for the dumbass who drinks too much, works like a dog, and hasn’t moved on an inch since he lost his motorcycle club.

But Roach has other plans for the man twisting his miserable life around. For him, Zane is hope, lust, and love combined, so Roach will gladly stay bound to him forever. Even if it kills them.

Dirty, dark, and delicious, Feel My Pain is a gritty M/M dark romance novel with magical elements and a happy ending. Prepare for violence, intense jealousy, and scorching hot, emotional, explicit scenes.

Warning: This story contains scenes of violence, offensive language, and morally ambiguous characters, as well as sensitive topics of child abuse, addiction, and suicide.

Wow

Wow this was definitely a ride I enjoyed being on. I was hooked from the moment I hit play and was extremely shocked by all sorts of this that happened in this story. The struggle between these characters pulled at my heart and I just wanted to hug them both. They each had their own things they were battling with and trying to cope with. I loved these characters though this a rather dark story with lots of revenge and violence. I love this author and this was a very good book. The narrator did a fantastic job.

Why did I wait so long to listen

I'm not sure why I avoided this book for so long but dang. I wish I hadn't. It was hard to hear some parts but it was so good. Zane and Reed were two broken characters that needed each other.
I loved Kirt Graves' narration of this book. The dynamic duo that is K. A. Merikan never disappoints. Great listen. It's still pretty dark but deliciously so.

All the feels

This book has all the feels. Gruffy broken softy and a hot mess musician. I love all of KA Merikan's books. This book did not disappoint. Kirt Graves was such a great choice for narration.

Great Enemies to Lovers story

I enjoyed this book so much and listened to entire 11+ hours non-stop until the end. Enemies to Lovers is my favorite trope and this story was a perfect combination of hate, violence, love and hot and steamy times between unlikable heroes. Even though both Reed and Zane are so very damaged, I like both characters and was captivated by their interactions and relationship development. This story is very dark with description of abuse and violence and lots of pain, but it had some very sweet moments and second chances. Narrator did a great job with voices and story and made this a perfect listening experience.

Outstanding

Both MC’s alternated between me wanting to slap them and wanting to comfort them. Both had a lot of depth and there was so much tension (both sexual and emotional) between them, you can taste it. The story had twists and turns and a smack of the supernatural. I’ve never read anything quite like it.

Angst, a ton of heat, a great story, and one of my favorite narrators (Kirt Graves), so how could it go wrong? I listened to the whole thing in two days. 10/10 highly recommend.

Epic!!!

Zane and Roach are mortal enemies who are cursed to feel eachothers pain. . . and arousal. Smoking hot and a wild ride!

the angst!!

this book tore me from the moment it started. roach and Zane are night and day. one madly in love from the first moment he laid eyes on Zane, and the other despising Roach like the lowlife he thought he was.

finding out in the end what happened to each man TORE MY HEART APART. K.A. had no business hurting my soul the way they did.

Kirt Graves did an amazing job narrating this story. each chapter you could hear in the narration which character was headlining what chapter. it was amazing to hear that difference, even if it was subtle.

overall, an amazing listen/read and I definitely reccomend it. the angst alone is just, *chef's kiss* painfully amazing~

dark and wonderful

Dark and wonderful, but yes it may be a hard listen for some. Confronting old demons is never easy, loving someone with twin shadows can make it easier.

Unusual mc story

I’m reviewing the audio edition. I don’t normally do anything with any paranormal involved but I had read this author before so could not resist this story. It is totally different than I expected. The mc club has a small part. It’s mostly the relationship between the mc president who happens to be Roach’s dad and Roach. This has to be one of the more horrible father son relationships I’ve read about. Hulk does unimaginable things to his son and it leaves a permanent scar on him. When Roach interacts the first time with Zane it is anything but a love story. After that initial meeting Roach and Zane actually feel each other’s pain. The road they travel to being a couple has a number of twists and surprises. I’m glad I decided to ask for a copy of this from Gay Romance Reviews. I wasn’t sure I’d like the paranormal but it didn’t really play as big a part as I expected. I think a big part of why I enjoyed the story is due to the Narrator Kirt Graves. I feel his performance brought reality to the story.

Tough won HEA

Wow, this book puts you through the wringer. I spent so much time both rooting for and wanting to smack these characters. Zane and Roach have both been put through so much and their walls are so high. True enemies to lovers. Kirt Graves narration was so good. If you love a good enemies to lovers story and a ton of angst then this is for you.
