About this listen

Raphael

We met once two years ago — a few awful moments I’d rather forget — but he’s lived in my head ever since. Lee Jaehyun. K-pop idol and star of every filthy fantasy I have these days.

I should be thinking about the fact we just won our first Grammy, I should be focussing on our next album. I should be planning my wedding. But I’m not; I’m thinking about him. About what his mouth might taste like and what that body might look like under those carefully curated clothes. About how he might feel in my arms and what my name might sound like from his mouth when he’s turned on.

I’m not sure what this is; the near obsession I have with this guy, but it’s burrowed itself deep and refuses to give an inch. I’ll go insane if I can’t have him just once. Once to scratch the itch, douse the flames.

Except, it turns out once isn’t enough, and it’s not dousing the flames it’s striking a match and I’m about to blow my entire life up.

Jaehyun

Raphael Scott is going to break my heart.

He’s an American rockstar, engaged to be married, and straight. He’ll get tired of whatever this is soon enough. Then he’ll go back to his beautiful actress girlfriend and I’ll be alone again. I’m fine with that.

But it doesn’t mean I won’t take what he’s offering me right now. His shining American smile, his beautiful open heart, the desperate kisses he presses into my skin.

No, Raphael Scott won’t break me, nothing can. I’ve fortified myself against this sort of thing. My body, my art; all of it is armor. This soft American boy has no hope on earth of breaking it.

Hamartia is an opposites-attract, bisexual awakening, Rockstar x K-pop idol mm romance featuring sex, drugs, and rock and roll… and some K-pop. It features themes of a mature nature.

I saw this book advertised all over Booksta and I thought hmm I’ll check it out. Straight off the bat I thought it was something I wouldn’t be interested in, so I left it on my TBR. Then for weeks I continued to see reviews and a lot of people rating the Audio 5 stars, so then the other night I though fine I’ll give it a go. I started listening to the Audio at 9pm I was falling asleep but continued to listen, I started getting even more tired but I though I’ll pause it and listen to it tomorrow, but when I checked the time it was 4:30am!!! I had absolutely no idea how that happens, but my god I enjoyed this book and the Audio was fantastic! Overall I recommend this book to everyone! Give it a chance, you won’t be disappointed!

Worth the hype!!

It’s normally a cover that catches my eye but this one just didn’t. I saw it recommended so many times in FB groups I thought I had to have a listen. OMG am I glad I did, adored it. Such a great store, well written and narrated. Loved it!

This has ruined all other MM romance for me - well worth all the bookstagram recs. Scarlett Drake’s character development is excellent and the delicious build up was *chef’s kiss* The narrator did an excellent job with MC’s.

Already onto the second listen!

This book has ruined MM books for me in the best way possible. To say I am obsessed with this story and it's characters is an understatement. I have listened to it 4 times now. While other books are good, this story just hit all the best spots; some steamy, some vanilla. I am addicted to Jae-Hyuns character. I love his beautiful personality, his gentle nature, and his kinks.

For people familiar with BL, I highly recommend you listen to this wonderful story. For others who are fans of MM romance, you'll love this book. As a fan of all forms of romance, I can safely recommend this story to everyone who likes drama, romance, and steamy reads. It is literally the perfect book for fans of all contemporary genres.

This book is so good, it ruined me for all other books...

I absolutely devoured this book when I read the paperback release. So I had to immediately jump on the audio! Narration was great considering the cultural diffences and language barrier.
My only disappointment with the narration was that Cam’s accent wasn’t more French. Otherwise the story remained perfect and Rafa & Jae will always have a place in my heart.

Still Obsessed. Perfection!

The beginning and end of story caught my attention- interviews with tape recorders so unusual now. Good point of difference.
Yes it's a love story but bringing aspects of a different culture also interested me.

Style of writing caught my attention

This story sneaks into your heart and refuses to leave. From the first chapter, I was swept away by its emotional depth, . Scarlett has crafted a tale that’s equal parts intimate, intense, and utterly romantic.

Zachary's narration was flawless—he breathed life into every character. His performance added an extra layer of vulnerability that made the heartfelt moments hit even harder.

The spicy scenes were deliciously crafted—elegant and sensual. There's a refined heat to them that made them feel honest and earned, never overshadowing the emotional journey. I found myself completely falling for both of the main male characters—each one complex, flawed, and impossible not to love.

If you're looking for a romance that aches in all the best ways, Hamartia is a must. It's not just a love story—it’s an emotional experience. I now have a totally different lens to view the K-pop idols. The are all beautiful.

A Stunning, Swoony Masterpiece – 10/10 for me
