In an epic love story caught between neon lights and shadowed pasts, two hearts collide.

Their souls are bound by secrets, passion, and the undeniable pulse of the 80's. Anthony Pacini is guarded, haunted, and desperate to break free. Chance Sullivan is a hotter-than-sin rebel running from a fate already written. Together, they're headed straight for heartbreak—or redemption.

Anthony Pacini: A college football player entering his final year at Arizona State. When he's not dominating the field, he's working at Devil Records, indulging his deep obsession with 80's music. Proudly Italian and a passionate cook, Anthony carries the weight of a traumatic past, making him guarded and firmly in denial about his true feelings and desires.

Chance Sullivan: Recently transplanted from Boston to Arizona, Chance seeks to forge a new path far removed from the life previously planned for him as a member of The Doves, an Irish organization with deep roots. Chance shares Anthony's fervent love for 80's music, and the moment he walks into Devil Records on his first day of work and locks eyes with Anthony, Chance is certain of one thing—he must have him.

King of Pain is a standalone with a happy ending. It is the first book in the Damaged Hearts series; each book will feature a different couple. Six novels are planned for the series.

This is a dual POV heartfelt MM romance with all 80's music vibes.

But the ending was a bit dragged.
There's slow burn and then theres this book. This must be the slowest burn I've ever read. Once they get there though, they don't stop. Plot plotting and audio narrators were great

Lovely storyline and spice

I had the release of this book on an alarm on my calendar and it didn’t disappoint! Oh my, you love them immediately! While it’s long it’s ok because it’s wonderful and I like it when I don’t have to say goodbye to quick when it’s good. The writing is amazing and the narration from both is stunning. But you long for them to be happy and together. The side characters are great even little G. Also huge fan of the 80s music reference. The whole thing is just wonderful. Slow burn with maximum satisfaction. Good job everyone. Get involved, you won’t regret it. It’s just so, so, so, so good. Xxxxxx

Worth the wait!
