TEXAS
Ihad my head bent over my client’s thigh, working on the scary-ass clown tattoo he wanted, when there was a knock on the door.
“Yeah,” I called as I sat back and wiped over my work. I looked up when the door opened, and Mon stood there with a cheeky smile.

She’d come to see me.
Mon gasped. “She’s the one who’s had you smiling lately.”

“Not like I’ve been a moody arsehole before now.”
They both stared at me.
