Blurb/Synopsis
When her car breaks down off the side of a lonely highway
far from her sunny Miami home, tattoo artist Lia never expected her very own
white knight to ride up on the back of a barely street-legal motorcycle...and
she never expected to fall for her dark savior. After a string of failed
relationships and a bruised heart Lia is not looking for forever, and the hot
mechanic, with his sexy scruff and shaggy hair, is simply impossible to resist.
He's the perfect candidate for a mind-blowingly-perfect, no-strings-attached
one-night stand.
Reid left his life in Chicago far behind him and hasn't been
back, but he's never been able to escape the guilt he feels about his own
painful role in inviting a monster into his baby sister's life. A monster who
almost destroyed her. Being with Lia is an unexpected gift, one he doesn't feel
he deserves, and their one night together has him wanting more than he should.
When he surprises her at her tattoo studio, Second Circle Tattoos, in Miami,
he's in for a shock—and a fist to the face—when his past and present collide.
With secrets
coming to the surface, Reid and Lia are thrown into a world of betrayal and
lies that threatens to pull them under, and the last link to his former life
may be the darkest of them all.
The sarcasm and humor is abound in this book. With characters you will be drawn to and want to get to know better. A plot that is so full of twist and so well thought out that keeps you involved in the story from beginning to end to the point you do not want the story to end. For it being the 4th book in a series Scarlett Cole has definitely got a must read series here. With a few chuckles and highs and lows of emotional turbulence along the way you will be drawn into this fast paced story and become part of it. I cannot wait to go back and read previous installments and I am looking forward to future books by Scarlett Cole.

Reid spun and grabbed onto his bike. Before he could regain his bearings or understand what the hell had just happened, his assailant was on him again. “Where the fuck were you?” the man shouted.
There was no way in hell he was going to allow the shit to be kicked out of him on a Miami sidewalk, and he definitely didn’t want Lia embroiled in whatever craziness was going down. Reid found his feet, pivoted on the spot, and nailed his attacker in the stomach.
“Trent,” Lia shouted. “What the hell? Harper, stop him.”
Trent? Her boss? He looked at the guy, who was currently doubled over.
“Trent,” another woman shouted, rushing from inside the studio. He followed the voice, and all sense of feeling disappeared from his hands and feet, leaving his head spinning with confusion.
Standing on the sidewalk in front of him, a thousand miles from where he’d left her in the safety of their parents, was his sister, Taylor. That was as far as he got in assessing the parallel universe he’d just stepped into before Trent’s fist again made contact with the side of his face, sending him crashing into the studio window.
