10 "I need all of Kieran O'Connell's words" Stars!!!
NessReads~

Melissa Trujillo knows suffering. She's tasted it, touched it, injected it. Sobriety is a gift, but it isn't enough to wash away her secrets.

Kieran O’Connell knows sacrifice. He's owned it, held it between his fingers, and felt it in his knees. Words are his freedom, and they've begun to fade.

Two different worlds, one moment and the Earth shifts—granting them a path.
His eyes meet hers. Her hand fits his.

Kieran finds his muse.
Melissa finds her new addiction.

But, when sin meets virtue, angels fall, and the truth, it becomes a blade. Together they’ll walk the sharp edge, and if her lies cut too deep, not even his words could save her… save them.

Those damn gorgeous McConnell boys

Reviewed in Australia on 7 November 2017

Verified Purchase

Another heartfelt, provocative and emotional read from A. M. Johnson. The O'Connell boys steal your heart and soul. The devotion they have for their women is breathtakingly beautiful.
Kieran and Melissa's love is impassioned and obsessive. Their story and the love and forgiveness needed to help them deal with their beliefs, pasts and particularly Melissa's former life of self loathing and addiction is truly remarkable.
This series, these stories and the arousing McConnell brothers I'm sure will stay with me for a long time to come.
Definitely a recommended read!

Kieran is the youngest O'Connell's who had thought he would become a priest but events & time disrupted his plans. Now, at 27 he is looking for answers that his Brother's have:A wife & a family. This is an emotional roller-coaster and takes Kieran & Mel on a journey that might deter others, but they deal with everything & manage to come out on top. This Trilogy is definitely worth reading. It's a story I know I will reread.

A nice story but Kieran was a little too soft for my tastes. I prefer my heroes to be alpha and unfortunately he didn’t seem to have an alpha bone in his body!! As for Mel... she was sweet but her whole “I am not good enough” blah blah blah routine got really annoying very quickly.

Lovely story

Reviewed in Australia on 15 October 2017

A beautifully written, touching story. Stands alone, but part of a collection of stories about a band of brothers. This one deals with some pretty serious issues, and does so with compassion and delicacy. A wonderful read, and a surprising one. I enjoyed it immensely.

I fell in love with Kieran the Poet

Reviewed in Canada on 30 October 2017

Oh wow what just happened here, I fell in love with Kieran the Poet. That's right that is what will happen when you read this last story in the Avenues Ink series by A.M. Johnson appropriately titled Poet. Kieran is the last of the O'Connell brothers but boy oh boy he is definitely one you will not forget. In fact his innocence and good hearted soul will carve its way into your heart. His love and devotion to Melissa, a fragile person with a difficult past to overcome will sweep you off your feet and find yourself cheering on this beautiful, yet broken couple.

I loved everything about this story, the fragile yet hopeful Melissa and Kieran, this unique story line, the beautiful words of A.M. Johnson and how she mixed it with her poetry was simply amazing. It made this story more real, more pure, more adventurous, more romantic, more forgiving and yes in some ways more sad. She tells a story of two lost souls trying to find their way to each other, for each other and with each other. Despite their unique and different pasts they are determined to find love in each other but will it be enough to erase pasts filled with heartache, lies, deception and uncertainty.

This is one of those stories that will grab your attention from page one and want you yearning for more. The pages are filled with so many emotions from happiness, sadness, to shock, to understanding, to anger, to compassion but with so much love that will keep you saying just one page until you reach the epic epilogue.

A.M. Johnson should be commended for handling such difficult yet important topics for all of us to become aware of. Her writing in all her Avenue Ink Series is pure magic translating beautiful words into real life stories that everyone should read. Her writing just keeps on getting better and better and always leaves you wanting more. I highly recommend this book and all her books in this series as the O'Connell brothers will cast a spell on you leaving you to fight for love always.

✏🖋Kieran O’Connell: Poet, Priest Or Fallen Angel? 🖋✏

Reviewed in the United States on 16 October 2017

Verified Purchase

For readers not familiar with the O’Connell brothers, Kieran is the youngest brother of Liam and Declan and had planned for most of his life to enter the priesthood. When their father died, Liam took care of the family, Declan battled his inner demons, and Kieran pursued God, contained his emotion in his poetry, and lived a chaste life. But all that changed when their mother died. Kieran could no longer find peace in his God or church and the words abandoned him. So in case you’re wondering, as some have stated, there is a “religious feel” to this book, but it’s so much bigger than that. If someone’s spiritual struggle with broken dreams and disillusioned beliefs while still trying to hold fast to a fraction of their faith feels too religious for you, you may want to pass on this book. I challenge you, though, to look beyond the cathedral and confessional façade to the deeper human struggle of finding a purpose in life, beyond the rosary to the wrestling with destiny, and beyond the catechism to finding a new faith.

On the surface, the contrast between Kieran and Mel appears to be as vast as black and white and good and evil. Somehow though, Mel and her shades of gray bring color and poetry back into Kieran’s sterile existence, and Kieran’s purity and goodness help Mel see the goodness that still exists in her when all she can see is the sins of her past. Rather than contrasting, they complement each other perfectly, as yin and yang or two halves of a whole. Their passion is a burning flame, but their struggles are real and their journey to forever is intense and arduous. Kieran and Mel will easily work their way into your heart and their words will stain your soul. You’ll feel the wide array of their emotions and by turns be frustrated with them, heartbroken for them, and rejoicing for them. One thing is certain, this book will leave its mark. If you haven’t read Kingdom and Possession, absolutely grab them too! The whole series is amazing, and Poet is the perfect finale!

Beautifully Poetic

Reviewed in the United States on 16 October 2017

Well one this is for sure. A.M. Johnson creates beautifully poetic writing and the way she wrote Kieran is probably the best writing I've seen from her. Everything he said and did was profound and full of passion and heart. My love for him is so strong that I can't even start the review with anything else other than him.
~ 4.5 Stars ~

"She is the light, and I'm the shadow that chases her dawn."

I can't tell you enough how much I enjoyed Poet. Both Melissa and Kieran are struggling with their own issues. Although on the outside, they may seem very different but deep down they are similar and equally important.

Melissa has had a rough past and she is has done everything she can to survive the additions of her past that continue to haunt her. Her story is completely relatable and I really enjoyed that we were given her point of view and the struggles of how she feels now while in sobriety. Her imagined self-worth and at many times her self-loathing can be a heard thing to overcome just by itself but adding that on top of the continued battle of fight addiction, it can be overwhelming. So I really liked how strong she was.

From the moment they met, we knew they were destined to be together. Something was calling the two of them together and the force is intense. But just like all relationships, things happen and wedges can form. It's what you do with it when that happens that makes you who you are. And if I wasn't already falling in love with Kieran, he sealed it with these words.

"Red is the color of my heart, and when I gave it to you...I wanted you to keep it."

Whew. Freaking heart warming, swoon worthy and let's be real....panty dropping. I really enjoyed Poet and I really hope everyone picks this up and gives it a chance. You'll fall in love. Trust me. I was completely invested in their story. I'm sure you will be, too.

5 Magical Stars

Reviewed in the United States on 14 October 2017

Every beautiful thing has to end. It was my first thought when I realized what I have in my hands – the last book in the Avenues Ink series. The last O’Connell boy’s book. The baby brother’s road toward his happy ending. Am I sad? Of course. Am I smiling ear to ear? Be sure I am! Yes, I’m kinda emotional because it’s the last journey I could take with one of my favorite brothers, but I’m so happy because I was lucky enough to be a part of it.

This stunning, beautifully well written book took up my life. I never wanted it to end, so of course I had to read it again immediately. I just couldn’t seem to have enough of Kieran’s smart mouthed, cocky attitude and Mel’s oh-so-deep soul.

Poet torn me apart with its beauty. A.M. Johnson is not only an outstanding author, she’s an excellent poet as well. She creates a magical world with her words, takes your hand and invites you an alluring ride with the most amazing characters.

Because, yes. This book biggest strength lays in the characters. Not only we can take a glimpse into the O’Connell’s life after the first two books – because, be honest, who doesn’t want to see Declan and Liam and their ladies again? – but the reader gets two extremely strong and complex characters.

Kieran is loyal, confident – a real hotshot. And he’s pure. So different from his brothers, yet he will conquer your heart in no time.
Meet Melissa, the woman with a troubled past. She’s lost so much, but she’s still here, healing.
Can they find the redemption in each other? Or does the past bite back?
Well, I highly recommend to read the book to find out.

You know what? Read the whole Avenues Ink series, because if not, you’re missing the journey of your life.

My Favorite O’Connell!

Reviewed in the United States on 15 October 2017

Verified Purchase

After meeting Kieran in Possession, I knew that the youngest O'Connell had a story to tell. I just didn't expect the words to sing to me the way that they did. Like the previous 2 books in the interconnected standalone Avenues Ink series, Poet was an emotional and moving experience. Though it can be read as a standalone, it would be best enjoyed after reading Possession and Kingdom since characters in previous books appear throughout the series.

There could not have been a more fitting title for this book. These words wrapped around my heart so tightly that at times I felt I would burst.

“She is the light and I am the shadow that chases her dawn.”

Kieran and Melissa's story was so heartbreakingly brilliant in it's honesty and candor. Mel's shame and guilt were almost palpable characters in this story. The demons of her past and the consequences of her decisions were so haunting. We watch her struggle to not only keep her head above water, but also to live and feel worthy of love. I found it refreshing that it was the heroine who was the more broken and dark of the pair. So often the hero swoops in and saves the heroine, but this time they saved each other. Their initial meeting had my heart rate spiking and their official introduction had me swooning and grinning like a fool. I loved their playful banter and that try as they might, they never stood a chance at not falling in love.

The book is certainly not all rainbows and unicorns and there are some very heavy, painful truths. Mistakes are made, and though my heart broke, I appreciated the fact that all the drama and angst was realistic and centered on Kieran and Mel's own insecurities and fears.

“By impulse everything was lost,
and I can't find my way... home to you.”

This is such a powerful story of acceptance and forgiveness. AM Johnson's words are so poignant and thoughtful that they will strip you bare. And right when you think that your heart can't take any more, her words will lift and heal you.

Catching up with the rest of the O'Connell clan was amazingly wonderful (I will always have a special place in my heart for Declan) and the epilogue solidifies Kieran O'Connell's place in the book boyfriend hall of fame. I cannot recommend this book and series enough!
