I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. In all honesty:
….you’d think after 9 books surrounding the same characters, the story would start to wear thin. Like Marvel Universe movies, you’re just ready for all this sh*t to come to an end with a nice pretty red bow tied to the top. I’ve read every single book in this series because Dom and Seth, and I’m not going to lie – I go in every single time nervous af because I’m wary that this will be the book to leave me un-quenched, unsatisfied, and ready for their story to just conclude so my love for them isn’t tainted, but closed on a high note. Every.f*cking.book after the first, I’ve begun with my breath held. And every.single.book these damn authors surprise me!
I can’t even imagine what sorcery they possess to come up with a fresh situation and storyline for these misfits for 9 freakin books – while continuing to publish books for their other series that are just as original and addictive. Whatever it is, Dom and Seth are just as amazing, and even more lovable, as they’ve always been.
There was never a dull moment, and as usual I couldn’t predict what would happen from one page to the next. However, what I seriously love about this book is that it didn’t pretend that time stood still. While many years have passed since this series started, so it has in the story, as well. We get to see older, more mature versions of the men we adore. Don’t get it twisted, they’re still Dom and Seth to the heart. Absolutely nothing about what we fell in love with about their characters is diminished. They’ve learned, though, through all their trials and through their love for one another – which is just as strong as ever! They’re family men, with Mark and Angelica to consider. And while that doesn’t stop them from doing whatever it takes for each other, you can see the growth of their characters in how they handle the mess they find themselves in – especially Seth! Ooooh Seth has come such a long way!
While this book brings certain issues to a close that have been a re-occurring theme through many books, there’s still unresolved things that warrant another book or two. So, this is not the last of Seth and Dom *phew*, but we begin to see the end nearing. I’ll be heartbroken when it comes, but these two have definitely earned their happy ending and I can’t wait to read it! I won’t even flinch with the next book, I have complete faith in KA Merikan to deliver exactly what these men deserve, in the manner best fitting for them!
Unshaken .
I just love the stories of Domenico and Seth, can’t get enough….
Seven years together where they have seen an exceptional amount of blood & gore mixed up with love so much wonderful love between them.
This ninth book had ma on tenterhooks again as each book does.
Domenico and Seth would kill anyone who would hurt each of them and kill they do..
I don’t know how K A Merican do it , every story has such a different adventure
Enemies found enemies gone ….
The dark humour is wonderful.
I have to read these books slowly so I digest every word …
4.5 Stars
As seven years have passed in the relationship of Domenico Acerbi and Seth Villani, much has changed in their lives yet they remain strongly connected to each other. Dom and Seth know that their path hasn’t been easy and they aren’t totally free of obstacles either. Upon vacationing in Singapore, Dom and Seth learn the identity of their infamous foe, and this knowledge sets in motion a trajectory that neither could have predicted.
Told in dual POV, getting into the mindset of Dom and Seth is seamless and this enhances the tension when they are in trouble or doubles the pleasure during hot times. Staying consistent with the series, this narrative is full of action, erotica and unexpected plot points.
As always, being reunited with Dom and Seth is an adventure and they consistently satisfy with their passion. Now that the plot has progressed in a certain way, I am quite curious to read how it will continue to unfold, as nothing is off limits in the world created by this writing duo.
Guns n’ Boys: Unshaken is an erotic romance steeped in mafia action and the unexpected. It will appeal to those who want to be immersed in an original and engaging story.
7 Years that Domenico and Seth had start their incredible journey together.
Happily married with a little girl, Domenico and Seth decided to take some vacation in Singapore. Just the two of them.
Everything was perfect until they crossed the path of an old enemy… a ghost from their past.
With this encounter start a spiraled of death, torture and hell. More than ever they will have to rely on each other, more than ever they will have to fight their own demons and fears if they want a chance to live.
Unshaken by K.A Merikan is book 9 in the Guns n’Boys series. It’s not a standalone, and you need to read this series in order.
OH.MY.GOD, this book was pure perfection. I had the same thrill than in the first books of the series, when Dom and Seth were trying to be a couple while being hunt with danger and enemies around each corner.
In Unshaken, they’re mature, they’re happily married and want to enjoy some quality time in Singapore just the two of them. They’ve reached a cruising pace in their couple. They know each other perfectly. Domenico understands Seth’s needs to do things alone, just for himself and Seth understands Domenico’s needs to control everything and sometimes to just give it up.
They’re united more than ever, but when dangers come to them and they’d enter a hell that they would never have thought possible, their instinct kicked in. They’re ready to do everything to save each other. Domenico is ready to die to freed Seth, and Seth is ready to die to freed Dom. That’s what I love the most about them. They’re crazy, violent, selfish but all their flaws don’t matter when they’re able to love each other with such devotion. They’re ready to sacrifice themselves if it meant to save the other. They always did. Their love story is probably the most beautiful one that I have ever read.
The plot is captivating, it’s a rollercoaster of emotion. I laughed, cried and screamed. This book took me in a crazy journey and didn’t let me think straight or just breath. It was well written, funny and dynamic with big plot twisted that I couldn’t really see coming, even if during the 9 books I’ve developed lots of theories about the series, the author did just kick me with it and show me how diabolic they can be. The end made me scream and cry at the same time!
This series is probably one of the best series that I ever read while Domenico and Seth are the best couple I’ve ever read. Their love is raw, beautiful and unique.
Unshaken was another proof of the talent of K.A Merikan.
