Holden
Ink and Ember is open for business.
Holden Walker likes peace and quiet, which sometimes makes working at a boisterous tattoo shop, Ink and Ember, hard for him. Fellow tattoo artist Merrick does not know when to stop talking and inserting himself into other people’s business, which is how Holden ends up escorting Merrick’s younger brother Bryce Shannon to lunch on his first day in LA.
Attraction between the two men is immediate, and their first time together is incendiary. Without meaning to, Holden creates a safe space for Bryce to slow down, breathe, and explore some interests he’s never been brave enough to ask for before. In return, Bryce shows Holden that there’s nothing wrong with speaking up for the things you want in life.
Their relationship can only stay casual—and secret—for so long. It’s only a matter of time before Merrick finds out what his co-worker and brother have been doing behind closed doors. Will Holden and Merrick survive when their relationship comes to light, or will their future extinguish before it has a chance to ignite?
Holden is a low angst, high heat romance from Kate Hawthorne. A spin off of the successful Risk Aware series, the Ink and Ember books are short, spicy, and straight to the point (which in this case is bed).
