Nick
I’ve escaped my demons. I've built a new life away from my Mafia family. But when Skylar enters my tattoo shop, my old life shows its ugly face again. Her vulnerability strikes me. A flicker in the depths of her eyes. A silent plea for help trapped behind what looks like a gilded cage. Behind the engagement with a wealthy man I know to be a monster.
I've sacrificed everything to win my freedom but it might be a hell of a lot harder to hold onto it than I ever imagined.

Skylar
I traded my lifelong dream of becoming a doctor for a loveless engagement. It's a trade-off I made, a deal with the devil, to protect those I love. But the weight of it is crushing, a suffocating pressure that leaves me gasping for air. And no one can help me. Not even the man I had a crush on since I met him. A man who has secrets he cannot admit even to his chosen family.

Inked is the first book in the Inked duet. A Mafia romance where the hero is morally grey but has a heart of gold, and the heroine is a stubborn, resilient woman who always tells him to shut up.
