Publisher's summary

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.

LIKED THIS ONE BUT COULD HAVE LOVED IT

I loved the male narrator but HATED the female narrator. I could have really enjoyed it but I found my self wishing JF would start reading and tell the chick to shut up. And since he was so good I was forced to finish the book. I could take it or leave it.

Bad Boy / Good Girl

Bad boys have such a pill. These two authors pulled it off with a 5-star review. there is suspense, romance, lust, all wrapped in a fine package. I'll even go as far to admit that it pulled at my heartstrings at times. Very well written very well performed and extremely captivating

Got More Than I Expected

So somehow this was not what I expected. I’m not sure why. In re-reading the blurb for the book I wasn’t misled at all—the blurb describes the story I read. I guess I just expected a fairly shallow book based on that short description. What I got was anything but a shallow “bad-boy-chases-good-girl” read. Zane’s not really a bad boy. He’s um, technically a criminal. But really he’s just a good guy in a crappy situation that’s epically complicated. He’s also got a lot more going on emotionally and psychologically than the average “bad boy.”

Actually, the only thing shallow in this book may be Maddy, Zane’s love interest and the book’s “good girl.” She’s a bit whiny and indecisive. Yeah, she’s had a bad break-up and we know how that is, but she’s kind of the poster child for hanging onto those bad emotions. Maybe it’s just something I had a hard time relating to, but it did get a bit old for me.

Even with Maddy’s bad mojo, this was still a really enjoyable read for me. Zane and Maddy definitely have the chemistry going on, and the plot is a total page turner. The fact that the story was more in depth and the characters overall were deeper than I expected made this a great delight. The audiobook version is highly recommended as narrator J.F. Harding does an amazing 5-star job with the dirty-talking, panty-melting Zane.
