Does He Know?

Everlasting Ink, Book 1

Emerson

It's not like I planned to fall for my older brother's best friend. It just happened.

With a perfect body covered in tattoos, and a dirty mouth, Roman is the kind of guy women notice—and believe me, I noticed. Even when I tried not to.

When he finally gives in to temptation, there's no going back. At least for me. Too bad Roman doesn't see it that way.

He thinks he needs to protect me and my relationship with my brother, but I don't need him to fight my battles. I just need him.

Roman

My name whispered from Emerson's perfect pink lips is all it takes for me to betray my best friend.

Before that night, I kept the green-eyed beauty at arm's length. Watched her from afar and told myself that the chemistry between us was one-sided.

I pretended that I didn't want her more than my next breath. Which is what's on the line if her brother ever finds out we've been sneaking around behind his back.

But I can't stay away. Especially after knowing what it's like to have her and lose her.

Now, I'm given a second chance, and I have every intention of making her mine—consequences be damned.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series surrounding five best friends who co-own a tattoo studio. Does He Know? is an age gap, brother's best friend, small-town romance.

Does He Know

Really sweet and not what you would think but good for a weekend to curl up on the couch and enjoy

Great Story to Listen to

I have had this on my TBR for a while and kept putting it off. I love the tropes of this book, and tattoo artist and brother's best friend with an age gap!! Emerson and Roman have known each other for a long time! But their chemistry is something that can't be ignored.

Roman has his best friends and business partners, who are his family. I love the way he tries to fight his attraction to the one person he shouldn't want.
Emerson is young but knows what she wants. And it is her brother's best friend.

I really liked this story, and I am so glad I finally read it.
The audio was so great to listen to. The narrators are amazing and were smooth in the ears of a listener.

So So Amazing

Ready to fall in love again. I read and reviewed this book when it came out. However this audiobook brings a whole new dimension to the story. I believe this is a must own.

Love this one!!!

I think this is her best book so far. I love a brother's best friend trope, and age gap as well. this was so well done. and the angst between them and the pining Roman did for Emmerson was so good. the narrators really made you feel the emotions the characters were feeling. the only thing that bothered me was the constant "you're my best friend's little sister" and "you're too young for me" from Roman before he eventually got over that.

Surprisingly different

This was a great story! I liked that it was different than most by diving into long distant relationships. It was a bit cheesy toward the end but Roman and Emerson are such a cute couple. They had a lot of things to overcome before they could take the big leap. As usual, the chosen family vibe made the story that much more enjoyable. I’m not a huge fan of the female narrator but the overall story was good and I’m definitely curious to hear Legend and Monroe’s story.
