Ink & Iron: A steamy small-town romance about a guarded veteran, a bold tattoo artist, and the ink that sparks something real. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781967053216)

A grumpy, guarded veteran. A tattoo artist who turns pain into beauty.
When trust feels like temptation, survival won't be enough.
Tanner Maddox didn't come to Briar Hill looking for second chances.
He came to outrun the past, bury the guilt, and forget the wreckage he left behind.
But one step into Needle & Ink-and one sharp-eyed artist who turns scars into stories-shatters every line he swore he wouldn't cross.
Lola Thorne knows better than to get tangled in someone else's broken pieces.
She's got a tattoo shop to run, a past she won't talk about, and one rule she never breaks: don't fall for clients.
Especially not a brooding ex-soldier with hands built for violence and a gaze that feels like a promise she can't afford to believe.
The tattoo was supposed to be just a cover.
Instead, it uncovers the one thing neither of them thought they deserved: a future.
He's all muscle, silence, and pain.
She's all sharp edges, rough laughter, and a heart stitched together with ink and stubbornness.
Together, they're something neither of them expected-and everything they didn't know how to want.
Walls will crumble. Rules will shatter.
And when it's all stripped bare, the only thing left will be the truth-and the fight for a love worth every scar.
Ink & Iron is a steamy, emotional small-town romance about a grumpy veteran, a fierce tattoo artist, slow-burn tension, off-the-charts chemistry, and love so raw it leaves a mark deeper than skin.

Author's Note:
This fast-paced, steamy romance is a perfect short read you can devour in about an hour or so-ideal for your lunch break, a cozy evening, or whenever you need a quick escape into love and laughter!
