This book was very enjoyable. I liked the characters and the action.

From the start, we were given a guy who was hard to hate. He was accused of a crime he says he didn't commit, he loves his child and does so despite having an ex-wife he despises.

The author created characters that had a decent amount of depth. They each had a lot of physical description, so I found them easier to picture and their characteristics made them easy to relate to.

The world was made to be believable, as was the entire story. This was very important to me, as I like to feel a part of the story. This was also followed through with the pace, as we had very realistic, slower moments, where I could get to know them and see what was going on, and there were faster, more action-filled moments for fun.

Overall, this was a good read and I would recommend.

**I received this book for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.

First book by this author. Suspense/romance/humor. A good quick read that keep me wanting more.

Interesting and intriguing overall, I enjoyed the suspense a lot. The romance part could’ve been a bit better imo .

First book by this author. Suspense/romance/humor. A good quick read that keep me wanting more.

This one was a cute story with a slight suspenseful twist – but it was definitely such fun to read!

We open up to a scene wherein the hero, Mike Hardin is being interrogated for the murder of a young woman, and it’s pretty easy to actually believe that he is innocent, especially after the monologue wherein he talks about his witch of an ex-wife; who is the one who is creating such suspicions.

But even through all this suspicions and the turmoil, he makes sure that he is there for his young son, making him a pretty wonderful father. While he is trying really hard not fall into romantic entanglements, Grace is a woman who worms herself into his life and his heart!

Grace Bell, is a recent divorcee and definitely a person who isn’t that well versed in the art of romance! So when she meets a man who she is instantly attracted to, she is definitely interested for she has always been called a cold woman by her ex-husband.

What happens when she finds out that he is a murder suspect? And not just any murder suspect, but a psychopathic serial killer!?

What I loved about this story is the narration – you get a whole lot of multiple POV’s – from Mike’s to Grace’s to the cop who is investigating the murders, Harry’s and then last but definitely not the least, the killers – what it does is provides a 360 view of the plot, the characters in real time, and thus it becomes like a motion picture inside your head.

The characters are quite wonderful – Mike is a brilliant and an amazing hero, Grace takes a while to get used to (I couldn’t fathom a 30+ year old giggling at every word at the start!); Harry is a typical relentless cop who doesn’t let go of his convictions; but most of all I adored the relationship between Mike and his son, Brayden. And while Grace and Mike’s relationship couldn’t be called Insta-Love, it came quite close to it (hence, my mixed feelings about it!).

The suspense is where Tattoo Killer falls a bit short – it didn’t take me long to figure who the real killer was – yet I still enjoyed reading the story, for I needed to know that these characters also figured out and everything ended the way it was supposed to!

All in all, it was a fun few hours I spent with this book, and I am looking forward to where this series might go.

Mikey Hardin isn’t having a good day. Grace Bell is wondering what has become of her life. Harry Hunter is a man on a mission. Once these three characters meet their lives seem to intertwine into what is a great start to the A Tattoo Crimes Series. It’s also the point where I found myself hooked on the mystery that this author has done a great job of creating.

I hated having to put this book down. It interrupted my pleasure. I especially hated when lunch was over because that meant I had to stop trying to see where this mystery was going to take me. Grace was a woman who needed someone to pull her out of her comfort zone and Mikey just may be the man who fits that bill.

Mikey has a profession that sees a lot of people. He also reminded me that my cable company took away one of my favorite channels – so missing Ink Master. Harry is that one that leads the reader into solving the mystery and how it connects to our hero. There’s some suspense that teases me – do I think I can solve it along with Harry. There’s heat – Mikey and Grace are combustible together. And the author gives you moments where you’ll giggle or laugh. You even feel sorry for the hero but I think he would disagree with the hero part.

Our author did a great job of creating a really hateful character. If she were in my vicinity I don’t know if I could hold my temper. You realize how creative the author is because Mikey doesn’t seem to be able to catch a break and you can see this actually happening to someone. I couldn’t tell if the ending is HFN or HEA. Does this mean that Grace and Mikey will be making an appearance in book two? Will have to be patient and wait and see.

I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
