About this ebook

When Lo is dragged into the tattoo shop by his bossy cousin, he steals everyone's attention. The big man is afraid of needles but wants a tattoo to celebrate an important moment in his life. And he wants Amos to do it.
Tattoo artist Amos is mesmerized by Lo from the moment he lays eyes on him. He's huge but kind, strong but gentle, and his freckles ... God, his freckles.
They hit it off immediately, but Lo grows nervous as the big moment approaches. Will Lo flee from the tattoo machine before they have time to get to know each other? Before they have the time to see if the sparks will turn into something more?

Ratings and reviews

A short and sweet romance about two guys bonding over a tattoo. It was just right to put a smile on your face and make you believe instalove is a real thing. The guys instantly connect and their flirting was adorable. Nice! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Lo’s cousin brings him to the tattoo shop. Lo is afraid of needles, yet he wants to memorialize something important in his life. Tattoo artist Amos is immediately attracted to Lo, especially with all those freckles. He teases Lo to calm his down, and the teasing turns to flirting. Will he trust Amos to do this for him, accepting he is in the best hands possible? Will he allow this first step to start something that may be everything he has been looking for? The story line is good, and that fear of needles is certainly relatable to many! The characters are excellent together and the dialog flows well between them. Grab your copy and see if Amos can convince Lo that he won’t ever regret trusting him, for this tattoo or for anything else that comes along.

Lo comes to get a tattoo from Amos but the more they talk to each other the more they connect. I really enjoyed this short, It was cute and funny, it had me laughing out loud.

About the author

Nell Iris is a romantic at heart who believes everyone deserves a happy ending. She's a bona fide bookworm (learned to read long before she started school), wouldn't dream of going anywhere without something to read (not even the ladies room), loves music (and singing along at the top of her voice but she's no Celine Dion), and is a real Star Trek nerd (Make it so). She loves words, bullet journals, poetry, wine, coffee-flavored kisses, and fika (a Swedish cultural thing involving coffee and pastry!). Nell believes passionately in equality for all regardless of race, gender or sexuality, and wants to make the world a better, less hateful, place. Nell is a bisexual Swedish woman married to the love of her life, a proud mama of a grown daughter, and is approaching 50 faster than she'd like. She lives in the south of Sweden where she spends her days thinking up stories about people falling in love. After dreaming about being a writer for most of her life, she finally was in a place where she could pursue her dream and released her first book in 2017. Nell Iris writes gay romance, prefers sweet over angsty, short over long, and quirky characters over alpha males. For more information, visit nelliris.com.
