Bella Ink - Now Available




See Rafflecopter Giveaway at the Bottom

Blurb:
Jet Ryan’s haunted by the memory of one night in the arms of a sexy tattoo artist who pushed all the right buttons before she shoved him out of her life. No one else seems to measure up. He needs her out of his system or in his life, preferably the later. But, he’ll settle for one more night with her or a reasonable facsimile as long as he can touch her again.

Ink Monroe avoids expectations that might get her hopes up, doesn’t believe in endless possibilities, and has absolutely no room in her life for a guy who wants to take care of her. But damn, it would be nice to have all those things for a little while. So when a customer gives her a business card for a woman named Madame Eve, she asks for a man to solidify the hazy memory of a single night of passion followed by the best night of sleep she’d had in years.

Both have tall orders for a single evening of passion, but one night can lead to endless possibilities. Madame Eve promised.


Excerpt:
“Hello?” She looked around but there didn’t seem to be anyone there. A breeze filtered through the screen leading to a balcony. She opened it and stepped out, breathing deeply of the pine-scented air.
Then she saw him. A long lean cowboy type stretched out in a cushioned chair, boots propped on the railing. Sleep softened what would otherwise be a rugged face. Wheat colored hair fell over his forehead and brushed his shoulders. Gold-tipped lashes hid his eyes. Unable to resist studying him as she had his truck, she moved closer, eager to see what kind of man Madame Eve had sent.
A crisp white button-up, opened slightly at the throat, covered his broad thick chest and disappeared beneath snug jeans. His narrow hips contrasted sharply with the width of his shoulders and long legs seemed to go on forever. His boots had been polished to a fine sheen, but they bore the signs of wear. Everything about him looked solid, reliable…safe. A shiver ran through her. What would it be like to awaken in his strong arms, pillowed on a chest made hard by work? The thought tantalized with the impossible. To be as well-cared for as his boots or his vehicle, to be appreciated scars and all, it would be a fantasy beyond even Madame Eve’s talent.
Still, she wanted it. For at least one night she wanted to be worthy of such tender care.
She hadn’t bothered to read his profile. The 1NS service had sent it to her, but she didn’t want to know. She’d asked them not to send hers either, but she had no idea if they’d done so. Expectations led to disappointment and could distort the appreciation of reality. Though she doubted the man stretched before her was anything but what he seemed—deliciously sexy and rock steady.

Bella Ink from Decadent Publishing - Coming Soon!







Bella Ink is coming soon! I'm so excited about my 1Night Stand release coming March 1st. from Decadent Publishing. Per reader request, Bella Ink continues the story of Jet and Ink from the Rally Riders Series - Beautiful Ink. Although the titles are nearly identical, the tales are not. Beautiful Ink concentrates on Ink, the gorgeous tattoo artist Ink Monroe and the tough image she struggles to maintain. Bella Ink, on the other hand, focuses on the man who could love the hard-edged and vulnerable woman buried beneath black lace and roses.

Under the lace and roses of Ink Monroe's tattoo hides the vulnerable Bella. Years of protective bravado have left her skittish as a wild mustang, but Jet Ryan's determined to find the truth beyond Ink's smoke and mirrors. But, can he get beyond her defenses to the tender woman he wants to love?
