Even if he weren’t the lead singer of the popular college band, Luminescent Juliet, Justin Noel would have his pick of women. And he does pick. Nightly. Tattooed, blonde, and green eyed, he flashes his dimples and females swoon.
Except for one.
Tattoo artist, Allie Landon, rarely dates, and especially not men like Justin. Though he’s hot enough to melt off permanent ink, she’s done with the bad boy type. But when the ex who broke her heart wants to reunite, desperation has Allie introducing her latest client as her boyfriend. Justin’s more than happy to play the part. He’s completely intrigued by the sexy artist and college student.
However, Allie’s life isn’t what it seems. There’s little room in it or her shattered and confused heart for Justin. But as Justin remains persistent, ignoring the growing attraction—both physical and emotionally—between them becomes more difficult than tattoo removal.
*New Adult. Recommended for mature readers due to language, drug references, and sexual situations.

The sting of the needle and the bold statement of the ink on my skin has become addicting.
I can honestly say that this book was not what I expected! I guess I expected cocky bad boy rocker trying to tame the hard nosed tattoo artist and really it wasn't that at all, it was soooo much more!
Even though Justin was a hottie, tattooed, bad boy rocker, I could tell from the moment he met Allie that she was going to be it for him. He wasn't cocky and mean he was just very, very persistent and he fell hard, fast!
Allie did too, but was more reluctant to take a chance with her heart on known bad boy Justin. She has way to much on her plate to risk her heart on a one night stand, no matter how smokin' hot he is! So Allie reluctantly agrees to design and ink a fantastic tattoo on Justin's back, now if she can just get though the tattoo sessions without doing anything foolish.(Yeah, good luck with that!)
Justin and Allie work hard at getting it together with some real obstacles but you can't help but totally root for them and their HEA! Justin is a super sweetheart and Allie is a wonderful girl who has lived way to much for her 21 years and deserves some real happiness.
Love isn't fear. It's courage. Courage to trust, courage to give, courage to fight.
I simply adored this book and this couple. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the band. By this I mean the way the band members interact with each other. They almost behave as though they can't stand each other. I found it kind of strange, but that is my only real complaint, everything else about this story was wonderful!!

"I simply adored this book and this couple." Glad you enjoyed Ink My Heart. You might try In the Band, the first book in this series. Each can be read as a standalone, but it might give a bit more insight into why the band has some 'bad blood'. Thank you for reviewing and participating.
