Summary

"Does it say you're not allowed to have fun in the bible?" "No," "Then what's the matter, Em?" she said, dragging her finger down my chest, pausing at the first button of my shirt. "What you are referring to is a sin. A deadly sin," "A sin you've committed before," "A sin I've apologized for," "A sin you can apologize for again," she whispered against my lips, the softness reaching my senses, causing a moment of uncertainty. "A sin with great rewards," she said, her lips skimming over my jaw, towards my ear, where she licked the shell, her voice echoing in my head, as she placed a light kiss on my neck. My breath hitched, my hand slightly tightening on her hip... "You're not putting up much of a fight, Emrys. Why's that?" ****** Emrys Ruel is a 27-year-old man whose changed his life for the better. After an experience with death, he was visited by an angel. When he awoke, he decided enough was enough and got on the straight and narrow. He found God, apologized for the life he lived, and has now been living in solitude, sometimes feeling like an imposter in his own skin. For 5 years, he's dedicated his life to working and staying out of the way. Work and Home were his only options. He closed off all aspects of fun in life until he met her. MaraLyn Cairo is a 23-year-old woman who's been grabbing life by the horns. At an early age, she experienced the worst of the worst and has been living life on edge since. Work, Parties, and Sex were all she knew from the age of 16-20. Her hypersexuality makes it hard for her to form real relationships. She only knows one form of love. Physical. After meeting Emerys, she's allowed to experience love in its purest form: a man willing to do whatever just to call her his. On this journey together, they learn more about themselves as well as each other's pasts. Will they be able to prosper and learn to love one another the way they would like, or will this ship crash and burn because of differing opinions on how life should be viewed?

This story will be quite different from my others, as it is slightly centered around religion, the loss of faith, and its subsequent gain.

This can be a pretty taboo subject.

Religion plays a key role in this story, but the narrative primarily revolves around perspective. There will be no disrespect to any religion. I will include bible quotes and insert the questioning of God. I know that is a trigger for some people, so I would like to throw out that disclaimer.

This story will be very heavy with very serious topics and dark themes, more so than my other stories.

You might be questioning...How the hell is this a love story? This story is centered around two people with opposing views on religion based on things they have been through. There will be a happy ending.

As always, I will include the story tropes and the triggers for this book, so proceed with caution.

Throughout this story, I will put disclaimers on chapters that may be triggering to readers. Remember, your health is the most important.

With all that being said, let’s proceed with the introduction to the story.

Story Tropes:

Lonely Antihero (Dark Past)

Isolated Survivor

BrokenWomanxHealedMan

Embrace of Faith

Crisis of Belief

Mask of Humor

Mask of Normalcy

Healed By Love

He Fell First

Love At First Sight

The Broken Duo

Time of tribulations

Religion

Trauma Survivor

Story TRIGGERS:

Sexual Assualt

Child SA

Near Death

Foul Language

Questions of Faith

Body Dismorphia (Negative body image/low self-esteem)

Hypersexuality

With the triggers listed, if you go beyond this point, you are reading at your own risk. Chapters I deeply explicitly talk about any of those triggers will be labeled, so you can skip them if you’d like.

Honestly, this has the kind of storytelling that can attract a much bigger audience with the right exposure.

bushbaby: I love the slightly different spin on the were-world and I love love love reading Jaspers story splashed in-between.
