Dublin Ink

Grumpy bad-boy tattoo artist, Conor Mac Haol, doesn’t trust anyone. Least of all the new girl apprenticing at his beloved Dublin Ink. She is way too pretty and way, way too young. Coming from a broken home, Aurnia has had to grow up faster than most girls. She doesn’t need anyone telling her what to do. Least of all Conor, her new (very hot, very muscled, very tattooed, and very, very rude) boss who obviously hates her. But Aurnia’s troubles remind Conor too much of his dark past. He becomes obsessed with keeping her safe. Keeping her protected. Even from him. Especially from him. Soon sparks and insults turn into broken rules and forbidden moments—until one final mistake seals their fate. This spicy age-gap romance is a standalone with no cheating and an HEA but please be advised, it's angsty, it's painful and you'll want to slap him (and her) before he finally redeems himself.
