Five dishonored soldiers.
Former Special Forces.
One last mission.
These are the men of Hard Ink.
Ever
since hard-bodied, drop-dead-charming Shane McCallan strolled into the
dance club where Crystal Dean works, he’s shown a knack for getting
beneath her defenses. For her little sister’s sake, Crystal can’t get
too close. Until her job and Shane’s mission intersect, and he reveals
talents that go deeper than she could have guessed.
Shane would
never turn his back on a friend in need, especially a former Special
Forces teammate running a dangerous, off-the-books operation. Nor can he
walk away from Crystal. The gorgeous waitress is hiding secrets she
doesn't want him to uncover. Too bad. He’s exactly the man she needs to
protect her sister, her life, and her heart. All he has to do is
convince her that when something feels this good, you hold on as hard as
you can—and never let go.
So this is book 2 of the Hard Ink
Series by Laura Kaye and boy it is book good...and smoking hot.
So we continue with the story of the
5 dishonorably discharged soldiers, who have reunited, to clear their names,
with the help of the children of the man that betrayed them! The plot sounds far-fetched,
but the story is fantastic and well written, so don't be fooled! The Hard Ink crew are still trying to get
there name cleared and that means dealing with some of the shady aspects of
Baltimore. While rescuing Becca's brother, Shane ran in to Crystal...literally
and she helped them escape, but whose side is Crystal on? So in this book we
focus on Shane. Now, he is not my favorite character in this series, but he has
charm and in this book he shows a lot of that.
Crystal is "dating" Bruno
(and I use that term very loosely) in order to have a job and keep her sister
safe. But she chooses to help a group of men, where will that leave her and
will she still be able to keep her sister safe
Yet again (in my humble opinion),
Laura Kaye knocks it out of the park with this book. The book has so many
twists and turns that, which it kept me riveted, I admit though, I did read it
in day light hours, this time. When I read these books it's like I am there,
it's descriptive without being to over the top and it just flows.
So I am going to give this book 10
out of 10 and with hopes that Ms. Kaye could convince her publishers to release
these works of art faster! The Hard Ink series is a well written collection and
one that I am very happy to be addicted to
