Ranae Rose – Inked in the City Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

Everyone loves a bad boy (well… everyone here at least) 😉 and I couldn’t help but get excited about this little series. Three books so far (novellas) but over 100 pages each, and each one is about a different tattooed guy. Now on my TBR list!

Oh wow… book #1 already has my interest. A kiss for a photoshoot (she’s posing for her tattoo artist) becomes more…

About book #1:

Mina never meant to fall for her sexy tattoo artist, Eric, or to become a model. But when she’s asked to pose in a photo shoot for the Hot Ink tattoo studio, she can’t say no. She finally gets a look at Eric’s tattoos when they’re cajoled into posing together, and in a few breathtaking moments, an on-camera kiss turns the passion they’re asked to fake into something very real, leaving them both wanting more. The only problem is that Mina’s not the glamour girl she looks like on the Hot Ink posters, or even in a tattoo magazine. She’s only twenty-four, but being the sole guardian of her disabled younger sister has left her feeling much older. Will Eric still be interested when he gets to know the girl behind the ink and the make-up and finds out that she and her little sister are a package deal? read more

By 3 Comments

Another series that looks right up our alley. Tattooed bad boys!! A few of our fellow readers have been mentioning (and discussing) it and I was just told that book #2.5 is LIVE right now.

Allyson: Hey… I’ve got a new book for you! Pretty steamy, filled with the tattooed bad boy you’re supposed to hate, but love instead. Nothing too gut wrenching, but definitely a fun read!  More Than Meets the Ink By: Elle Aycart Corrina: ‘More Than Meets the Ink’ by Elle Aycart 4 stars was hot. Tattoos, bad boy persona and steamy. Did I mention steamy? This guy really turns it up in the bedroom, against the door, over the couch….. oops sorry got side tracked there for a minute, hee hee

Pamela: sweet story, easy read, there were times where i got annoyed , but I guess its always a good sign that you get annoyed, means you care enough to be annoyed … I bought it and have no regrets. I liked it enough can’t go wrong when the guy is all inked up…

Jeannie: I ordered the book!! I’ll let you know what I think when I’m done reading it! Hopefully I’ll like it too!! 🙂 how can you go wrong when they say tattoos and a bad boy! Right?! read more

Book Review – Taking Chances by Molly McAdams

Taking Chances (Taking Chances and Forgiving Lies Book 1)
Okay, here is another one that spontaneously rushed it’s way to the top of my list this week. I heard about it for the first time a few days ago, but over and over again, the enthusiasm was making me antsy. I just couldn’t put it off and had to see what all the craze was about. And… you guys did good! I’m on the fence with just how much I liked/loved it. I’m literally half and half with this book and I can’t commit to a grade, because there were some parts (big parts) that were full-on five star for me (loved and hated parts, but they affected me SO much that I was all “OMG this just became a 5 star read!!”) and theennnnn….. some other parts (or maybe just my “issues”) that give me that “3 star” urge. Half and half. read more

Book Review – Bone Deep by Bonnie Dee

By 12 Comments

Bone Deep
THIS was an absolute find! What a treasure of a book, and even though it’s considered a “short” (248 pages) it was long enough to absolutely consume me for quite a few hours, and had just enough of everything for me to be 100% focused completely on this story. Now it wasn’t the first time I heard about it. When I raved about “Finding Home” (that unorthodox story had me riveted) many chimed in and let me know that Bonnie Dee had a few other gripping tales up her sleeve. This being one that was most often recommended. read more
