Shepard Montgomery loves the feel of a needle in his hands, the ink that he lays on another, and the thrill he gets when his art is finished, appreciated, and loved. At least that's the way it used to be. Now he's struggling to figure out why he's a tattoo artist at all as he wades through the college frat boys and tourists who just want a thrill, not a permanent reminder of their trip. Once he sees the Ice Princess walk through Midnight Ink's doors though, he knows he might just have found the inspiration he needs.

Shea Little has spent her life listening to her family's desires. She went to the best schools, participated in the most proper of social events, and almost married the man her family wanted for her. When she ran from that and found a job she actually likes, she thought she'd rebelled enough. Now though, she wants one more thing--only Shepard stands in the way. She'll not only have to let him learn more about her in order to get inked, but find out what it means to be truly free.

Review:

Main Characters 

I have to say I really enjoyed Grayson and Derrick. True they are flawed, but aren't we all? I was really rooting for Grayson to get out of the abusive relations with Josh. I wasn't really sure what to expect once she started going out with her sister Luna. (Who I love by the way and hope to hear more about her. Cough Cough Luna spin-off?) Grayson was trying to find herself and didn't always make the best decisions. Including unprotected sex. But I think if we were honest most of us have done things we've regretted in the morning. 

Derrick what to say about him? Definitely sexy but also very hard to read. I loved the chemistry between the two of them. Both trying to resist the pull but always ending up together. There was a lot of head games and hiding their true feelings. The storyline had me guessing the whole time. I could understand Derrick's hesitation in jumping in with two feet. There were times I'd like to strangle him and then he would do or say something that had me back on his side. 

Story Line

Now or Never is different and that's what I liked the best about it. The characters were not perfect and even though the story was wrapped up at the end it still left you wondering how they would be doing down the line. The emotions were real and the relationship was raw. Most books you read you think great story but not reality. Now or Never is realistic which is awesome. 

Overall

I would give this book full five stars. Because of the range of emotions the author pulled from me while I read. I finished this book in one setting and was left wanting more. A.J. Bennett is an author to watch. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!

P.S. Keep a tissue box near by.

Being Kalli

By: Rebecca Berto
Publication date: TBA
Genre: NA Contemporary Romance

Synopsis:

There are two things you should know about Kalli Perkins.

1. She’d rather do it in public than be alone with a guy.

2. She loves her little brothers more than her mom does.

Kalli doesn’t pretend to be a good girl. At nineteen, she’s never been in love and doesn’t ever intend to be. She has her issues handled. She’s managed to keep the secret of what happened to her nine years ago from her mother, although her mother’s usually high anyway and barely notices Kalli or her little brothers.

One night at a party, Kalli makes a bet with her friend, Nate, that could change everything. Their friend, Scout, tells them there’s no uncrossing the friendship line once it’s crossed—even though they were both drunk. But Kalli can’t imagine how anyone could want her damaged self for anything more.

She didn’t count on Nate. Nate’s very capable of satisfying her not only under her clothes, but in her heart, too.

She just doesn’t know it yet.
