In
Regina Cole’s steamy novel of hot ink and delicious angst, two tortured artists
take a leap of faith—but the past threatens to tear them apart.
After her parents pull the plug on her
college fund to finance their nasty divorce, Hailey Jakes is desperate to pay
her own way and finish her degree in graphic design. She can hardly believe her
luck when the sexiest guy she’s ever seen hires her to be the receptionist at
his tattoo shop. With sea-blue eyes, jet-black hair, and full sleeves of
tattoos on his muscular arms, Neill Vanderhaven looks like the kind of guy who
wouldn’t give her the time of day. In fact, he’s mesmerized by her—and it
doesn’t hurt that she’s talented as hell.
But Hailey and Neill have more in common
than instant chemistry: They’re both carrying serious baggage. Hailey’s parents
split after years of blowout fights and sloppy affairs. Neill just got out of
something serious with a woman who loved her bad habits more than she loved
him. When they take the plunge on a new relationship, they’re both breaking
their own rules.
But then a terrible misunderstanding brings
Neill’s worst fears to life, and their connection threatens to come crashing
down. What they have is more than skin-deep, but now Hailey and Neill need to
decide whether the kind of love that lasts forever is worth such exquisite
pain.
Regina
Cole, lover of manly muscled arms, chest hair, and mini-marshmallows, has been
reading romance since her early teens. While she loves a love story of any heat
level, she’s been drawn to the erotic side and is loving every minute. When
she’s not frantically pounding away at the keyboard, she can be found fishing
with her family, playing with her dogs, trying out strange new recipes, or
snuggling with her hubby. She also writes mainstream romance as Gina Lamm.
