— Nothing can stop true love. Not time. Not even the devil himself. —
Â
1805. Laurent. Indentured servant. Desperate to escape a life that is falling apart.
2017. Beast. Kings of Hell Motorcycle Club vice president. His fists do the talking.
Beast has been disfigured in a fire, but he’s covered his skin with tattoos to make sure no one mistakes his scars for weakness. The accident not only hurt his body, but damaged his soul and self-esteem, so he’s wrapped himself in a tight cocoon of violence and mayhem where no one can reach him. Until one night, when he finds a young man covered in blood in their clubhouse.
Sweet, innocent, and as beautiful as an angel fallen from heaven, Laurent pulls on all of Beast’s heartstrings. Laurent is so lost in the world around him, and is such a tangled mystery, that Beast can’t help but let the man claw his way into the stone that is Beast’s heart. In 1805, Laurent has no family, no means, and his eyesight is failing. To escape a life of poverty, he uses his beauty, but that only backfires and leads him to a catastrophe that changes his life forever. He takes one step into the abyss and is transported to the future, ready to fight for a life worth living.
What he doesn’t expect in his way is a brutal, gruff wall of tattooed muscle with a tender side that only Laurent is allowed to touch. And yet, if Laurent ever wants to earn his freedom, he might have to tear out the heart of the very man who took care of him when it mattered most.
My Review Of Laurent and the Beast by KA Merikan
The first series I read by KA Merikan was The Copper Horse series and I loved it. So I was really hoping this one would also be great…and I was so happy that it was!
These guys made me laugh, cry, blush, and I’m not gonna lie, they get me wet. I love a bit of M/M action.
LAURENT
He is just the cutest wee dude! He is so unappreciated in his own time (1805) and is beautifully innocent and naive. What a kind man he is. He is so excited to be going to maybe hook up with a man that visits the bookshop he works in and is hopeful that it’ll be his first sexual experience ever.Â
Of course, back then it was a no-no. But fuck that noise!
Anyway, trusting wee soul that he is, he doesn’t realise he’s walking into the arms of a nasty predator.
He is so emotionally and physically hurt when shit hits the fan with this possible suitor that he goes into shock…and when the devil himself offers him a chance at a new life where he could potentially have anything he wants, he agrees. Not realising that he’ll be going into the future.
However, he also has to agree to do something for the demon when he gets there.
BEAST
Och man! I love this guy.Â
He is the biggest, toughest, meanest looking teddy bear out there with a soft soul and beautiful and scarred heart…as well as his skin.
He was terribly burned in a fire 10 years ago and is now scarred over most of his body.
He’s basically given up on a relationship because he feels like everyone thinks he’s disgusting. It breaks my heart.
He just needs someone to love him for what’s inside and not judge him on what he looks like.
So when Laurent drops into his life suddenly and he is just so different and beautiful, Beast gets hopeful but he ends up hurt again as things just do not go smoothly.Â
He is so scared to trust Laurent and he knows that something is up, yo.
SEX SCENES
There is a lot of delicious “will they or won’t they?” in this story and it just builds up the anticipation perfectly.
The sex was a mix of super-steamy and beautiful because it was about two people discovering themselves. It was Laurent’s first time and Beast was learning himself all over again.
Greedy like a wolf at the end of winter, he devoured Laurent’s flesh, taking his young cock all the way into his throat. After years of celibacy, he managed to only choke a few times. He sucked on Laurent’s balls and played them in his hand. He kissed, bit, and sucked on Laurent’s trembling thighs. He spread his buttocks wide and ate Laurent’s ass with so much dedication the hole softened to him within minutes. With his tongue deep inside the tight channel, with the tip teasing the wrinkled flesh, he imagined burying his cock in Laurent’s ass and fucking it until Beast came, filling Laurent’s hole with his cum. They would look at one another, and Laurent would then understand that no other man could ever give him the things Beast could.
FINAL THOUGHTS on LAURENT and the BEAST by KA Merikan
I really enjoyed this book and all of these fierce men! Canny wait for the rest of these guys to get their own book.
I love the mix of M/M, Bikers, Time Travel and Paranormal!
