It's not a relationship, it's just a patchwork of tattoo sessions and sweaty secrets with a rock star. No big deal.
I've been keeping this secret for four years, counting down the months in between visits from Onyx.
To everyone else I'm “Hero” but he mostly just calls me “yes” and “more” while we trade heated kisses and wandering hands.
I know it won't ever be anything more than a wild secret and eventually he'll get bored hooking up with a tattoo artist fifteen years too old for him from Nowhere, Wisconsin. But I'm more than happy to enjoy this while it lasts.
But when Onyx shows up unannounced and tells me that instead of a hurried weekend we have 3 full months before he has to hit the road again, I don't know if I'm more excited or terrified to see where things will go.
I’m sure there’s more to life than tattooing Onyx and spending late nights talking until the sun comes up, but whatever that “more” is, it can’t be as fun as this.
No matter how hard I’m falling for him, there’s no way that he’s going to give up his rock star lifestyle to stay here with me… is there?
Oh these two sweet clueless fools... I just adored them. They have both been low-key obsessed with each other for four years, but they’re both afraid to actually admit it to the other one. So you’ve got a Hero, an older tattoo artist who’s been having a secret fling with a rockstar and who doesn't believe he will ever be enough to make him want to stay in his small town. He is afraid to admit too much about his own feelings or appear too needy. But then you’ve got Onyx the sweet, enthusiastic rockstar with a little bit of insecurities who is just as obsessed as the other one and keeps coming back. And he has some ideas in his head that he is afraid to share.
They’ve had a patchwork of stolen moments over the years with tattoos, sexy times, and lots of talking with separations inbetween. But now Onyx is taking his three months for break in Fall Crosse with Hero. So for the first time, they actually can date and get to know each other without the constant pressure of time. But they’re still just so afraid to tell each other what they’re really thinking and feeling.
My heart just hurt for them at times because they were so in synch in their chemistry, but afraid to be vulnerable and share their full truths. So there was a lot of wondering and guessing about what everything meant and what the future might hold. But they were just so sweet and charismatic and just plain cute together.
This is a tattoo artist and rockstar, age-gap, small town, fling-turned-real romance full of heart and heat. These two are just the most adorable cinnamon rolls, despite their outward appearance of being muscly, tatted, and pierced hot guys.
One of their sayings is between each other is "Don’t be an idiot." But these two are just idiots in love and completely oblivious. But it just made it all that much sweeter when all was revealed. This brings back the rest of the Inkslinger crew and their partners. I love the sense of found family and home they give each other.
Lewis tattoos himself on my brain instantly. Too bad this whole situation is about to get messier than spilled ink.
Lewis
Clingy, needy, Too Much
Just a few choice words from men who never deserved me anyway.
I'm not going to make the same mistakes again though. I plan to ride the motorcycle hottie of my dreams just until we both get bored.
Besides, who has time for anything but a quick fling when the jerks at the tattoo shop next door insist on doing everything they can to annoy the hell out of me with some stupid prank war?
Arrow
Possessive, intense, too much
My exes weren't wrong about me. I have a habit of falling too hard for men who never feel the same.
Meeting Lewis in a rainstorm, steaming up his backseat during a flash downpour… maybe this is my sign to try something casual for a change…
And then there's the prank war between my motorcycle club and our new neighbor. Whatever the twink did to get on Jag's bad side, the whole thing sounds a lot less appealing than losing myself in MY pretty twink with a cute butt and big, blue eyes who insists this isn't anything real.
Is he right? Is this thing between us nothing more than a Flash tattoo that time will fade? There's only one way to find out…

I know I have to keep my hands off of my best friend’s son, but it’s hard… really, really hard…
I didn’t know the guy I picked up in the bar last night was Hero’s son. To be fair, he didn’t even know he had a son until today. I guess we’re all just scrambling to put on our poker faces.
Keeping my hands off of Milo is hard enough thanks to his lickable dimple, flirty smiles, and virgin skin. But I swear this has to be a test. Why else would Hero insist that his son come to live with me? And why is it so hard for Milo to just keep his clothes on already?
If I can't keep my hands off of him I could lose my friends, our club, even the tattoo shop I love more than anything. Given the stakes, it should be easy.
Right, and a Prince Albert just pinches a little…
Virgin skin is a best friend’s (adult) son romance with a side of roommates-to-lovers, some forced proximity, a “stuck in the dryer” moment, and a whole lot of tension between two guys who just can’t keep their eyes and hands off of each other, no matter how much they try.
Author K.M.Neuhold is a complete romance junkie, a total sap in every way. She started her journey as an author in new adult, MF romance, but after a chance reading of an MM book she was completely hooked on everything about lovely- and sometimes damaged- men finding their Happily Ever After together. She has a strong passion for writing characters with a lot of heart and soul, and a bit of humor as well. And she fully admits that her OCD tendencies of making sure every side character has a full backstory will likely always lead to every book having a spin-off or series. When she’s not writing she’s a lion tamer, an astronaut, and a superhero…just kidding, she’s likely watching Netflix and snuggling with her husky while her amazing husband brings her coffee.
