Oliver “Ollie” Truman

My purpose in life has always been to protect my little brother. And the only way to do that is to do what my dirtbag of a father says—easier said than done. So my plan is to save enough money to grab our backpacks and leave these miserable days behind us. There’s no harm in having a little fun in the meantime though, is there? And the growling beast who flattens his opponents with a single punch looks like a perfectly hot diversion to me.

The crowd calls him Hulk. Dark intense eyes, large hands, scarred back, huge rocky pecs, thick arms, and tree-trunk thighs. And the bulge in his pants is not a mirage, a very proportionate…appendage.

He growls, I snort. He rejects me, I stalk him. He threatens me, I kiss him. He orders me around, I…that depends, are we in or out of bed?

His broody, rough demeanor dares me to get closer, and his crude, hard words turn me on like nothing ever before. My sassy mouth has gotten me in trouble more times than I can count but he seems to have found a very delicious way to shut me up.

But when I discover his protective side? His possessiveness? The secrets? The rage and destruction?
Can two broken souls find their missing pieces among the dark, bloody, jagged ones?

WARNING-This is not a sci-fi angel story, unless you see eager vigilantes with a dark side as angels.

This is an action packed romance with an HEA and no cliffhangers. It features an over the top posses-sive mountain of a man, and a bratty, determined twunk with a sassy mouth. There’s violence, blood, torture (only of very bad people), dark humor, amazing side characters and very rough, spicy scenes. Morality’s grey area is quite stretched in this story. Please check the triggers at the beginning of the book.

This is book two in the Angels of Wrath Series. Each book follows a different couple.

REVIEW:

I love starting a new book where the trigger warnings already hit the boxes.

Many years ago Raguel was kidnapped and locked away, he was a medical object, a lab rat, until he was rescued. He was not alone, there were others, all kept because of their psychopathic traits and wanted to make them assassins.
They were rescued, adopted by two moms, they are saved but damaged, and got new names after the seven angels of wrath: Raphael, Michael, Gabriel, Ramiel, Uriel, Sariel, and Raguel.

“I’m big and strong and like it rough. Like to dominate and use.”

Raguel/Rague is now twenty-nine, a mountain of a man at six-five and two hundred fifty pounds. He lives for his family, together they finish off people who are bad.
One night after another winning fight he got approached by a small guy who offers to suck him.
It didn’t come that far because of an interruption, but Rague can’t get the twunk out of his head.

Oliver can’t wait to take his younger brother Sully with him and leave their pimp of an asshole father behind.

A second approach is more fruitful, Rague can’t get Oliver out of his head, and he never does repeats.
It seems Oliver also fights, only his opponents are way bigger, Rague doesn’t want him to.

Everyone is afraid of Rague, Oliver not a bit, when everyone staggers backward by Rague’s growl, Oliver just snorts. He even feels safe with Rague, the man is hugely protective and possessive, he waits for Oliver to leave when he understands how damaged is is..

“I’ll never let him leave.“

There’s still a story about Oliver’s shitty scumbag dad!

I love it when a story is clear, with names, circumstances, and scenery, in the first chapter I already understood Rague and his life.
It’s a strongly written dark story, rough, tough and primal, it’s all quite physical, and animalistic, with profanity-mouthed, morally grey characters, who take justice into their own hands, only the bad ones. Keep in mind there are some gore scenes that could make you uncomfortable.
