Inked

By: Lauren Landish, Willow Winters

Narrated by: J.F. Harding, Holly Chandler

One look, and panties drop. One night, and they're ready to marry me.

Too bad I'm not interested in anything more than a taste.

Until I'm tempted by Little Miss Goody-Two-Shoes. She's a good girl, the kind I want to possess, dominate, ruin. No one's ever told me no, and I'm not about to let it stop me now.

She keeps pushing me away, even with her curvy body pressed against mine and those soft moans spilling from her lips. But I'm persistent. She doesn't stand a chance. And now that she's moved in next door, it's only a matter of time before I'll have her screaming my name.

She can try to run, but she's not getting away from the bad boy next door.

Inked is a full-length romance with an HEA, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.

Meh!!!

Inked was okay. I didn't feel any real connection with the characters. In fact, I found Kady a bit annoying. Maddie and Kady behaved like 8th graders together. Zane was a little more tolerable, but not by much. So while reading Inked wasn't the best way to spend an afternoon, it wasn't the worst either. Meh.

Hot!

I really enjoyed this book. The narration was good. I love JF Harding. He really brings the characters to life. Holly was great too.
I didn’t know what to expect from this book. I came across it searching for a book to listen to on the romance package. The cover is what caught my eye and then the authors’ names. While I’ve seen both their names pop up in my news feed, I’ve never read any of their works. I’m so happy the Romance Package on Audible came about because I get to discover new-to-me authors. This collaboration worked and worked well. The story flowed smoothly from POV to POV. The storyline was fresh to me. The characters were easy to get behind. I’m looking forward to reading more of their collaborations as well as their individual books.

So Good!!!

This book is written by Lauren Landish and Willow Winters, whom I read frequently, so needless to say I enjoy their writing style. There are unexpected twists and turns in this Duet Narration. Both JF Harding and Holly Chandler did a fantastic performance. I had read the book previously and found I enjoyed the audiobook more. The narrators bring a sense of urgency through their voices and emotions that are not conveyed as well on a page. I would definitely listen to this book again when I'm in the mood for some steam and more. My review is not a synopsis of the book, but rather my opinion of it. I was voluntarily provided with this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator. I do not like to give away spoilers in my reviews, but I will let you know that this is a standalone book and it does not end in a cliffhanger. I found the ending quite fitting.

Not for me

I’m willingly admitting that it could be just me! I’ve read other books by Winters that I loved. I really really wanted to love this story. Personally, I couldn’t force myself to finish it. I love tattoos and all things related but the female lead annoyed me to no end. She’s whiny and indecisive. The guy is hot but deserves better.

Awesome Audiobook

This was an awesome audiobook. Addicting from the beginning. The narriators really played their parts very well.

Loved the Characters!

Idk but 1/3 of the story was running from Zane....1/3 was her bestfriend being toooo much of a whiny person....1/3 was hot sex! I feel this book had so much more potential it seems like it's been rushed. the narrator's did a fabulous job. The ending was really great..... HEA ending......

Good darn book! ♥️♥️

The narration is great for this book. Absolutely fast moving and great plot. Two girls friends since kindergarten and a fathers love for his daughter. In walks a bad boy with redeeming qualities and its on. Zane and Maddie are great together. He found love which he needs and she was getting over a broken heart. The nighclub scene is super sexy. Yummy! Check it out.

Tatoo Artist Next Door!

Madeline and her friend Katie wind up in a bar one night when she sees Zane however she wants nothing to do with him as she is recovering from her unfaithful boyfriend. Zane owns a tattoo shop however his business is not as it appears.

When he realizes she is his neighbor he continues his pursuit and she gives in but when trouble comes calling will Zane be able to protect her so that they may have their happy ever after?

Steamy chemistry, suspense and good secondary characters made this an enjoyable story. I liked the narrators however I much preferred J.F. Harding.

Self preservation v. bad boy tattoo artist.

I accidentally read book two of the Bad Boys Next Door series first, but it doesn't seem to have been all that connected to this book, so I don't think that mattered.

Things between Madeline and Zane seem to get hot and heavily quite quickly (leading to several steamy scenes). I really didn't like Zane's behavior in the club at the beginning of the book and where he goes from wanting a one night thing to wanting a lasting relationship isn't exactly clear. I'm not sure if goodie two shoes is the best way to describe Madeline. I would put it more along the lines of just having a great sense of self preservation. Regardless, Zane's loose connection to the mob soon ends up putting Madeline in danger. When she discovers that he's associated with the mob, she's understandably upset. Even more so once Zane pushes her away in an effort to ensure her continued safety. When she's kidnapped, however, it's Zane who is most determined to find and save her. The book features a HEA ending with no cliffhanger.

I lived this!

Not surprising that Lauren Landish and Willow Winters together write a great story!! I loved the character of Zane and how he fought for Maddie!!!! I encourage everyone to read or listen to this!

JF Harding and Holly Chandler narration made this an even better listen with their voices and character definition!!! Loved listening to both of them!
