Forbidden Ink

Get Ink'd, Book 6

De: Ali Lyda

Narrado por: Connor Brown

I’m not a deadbeat.
I didn’t know my kid existed before Milo showed up, but now that I do, I’m determined to keep my beautiful little Sofie in my life. Even if it means I need to spend time around her irritable uncle, Milo. The man pushes all of my buttons.

He riles me up until I can’t think of anything except kissing him. Definitely not the reaction he expects. He’s not out, but I’m not the type to hide. Is there any way to make it work for our new family?

Family means everything.
Eryk’s a cocky playboy. He’s not good enough to be my niece’s father, but unfortunately, DNA says otherwise. Father or not, I’m not about to walk out of little Sofie’s life.

Which means I have to walk into Eryk’s even though I can’t stand him. So why is he so hard to resist? I decided on a closeted life a long time ago. It’s the only way to stay safe and successful. Could I bring myself to step out of the closet if it means having the true love of a family?

Loved Eryk and Milo

Milo is grieving the loss of his sister as well as trying to parent her little girl. Add on that he is a famous actor in the middle of a film and that he has finally tracked down little Sophia's birth father. Who could blame him for punching first and asking questions later? Apparently Eryk and his twin sister Eryka. Finding a common ground isn't easy but for Sophia's sake it has to happen. Little does Eryk know, Milo's closet door is creaking open and so is his heart. I loved this story and the narration brought it all to life. Jumping into the rest of the series!

A sweet opposites attract romance!

I absolutely loved this MM opposites attract romance!

The characters were likeable, relatable and well fleshed out.

The writing style was engaging, compelling and pulled me in from the very first page.

The narrator did a great job on the audio delivery and narration.

Overall a fun and enjoyable listen!

Refreshing!

I found this an engaging and lovely romance! Throw in the tattoo artist/reality star with the movie star, and an orphaned little girl and sparks are sure to fly! I love this series and this audiobook fits right in!

Very Enjoyable

Forbidden Ink is Book 6 in the Get Ink'd series. This is a wonderful addition to the series as Eryk finds out he's the father of a beautiful two year old girl named Sophia. Sophia's mother has died and her Uncle Milo is taking care of her. Telling Milo who Sophia's father was was one of the last things Milo's sister did and Milo took it upon himself to find Eryk and tell him he had a daughter. That first meeting didn't go so well but over time and for Sophia's sake Eryk and Milo grew to tolerate each other. And the more time they spent together, the more they were like a family, they grew to love each other. It was hard at first for Milo because he was still in the closet but after a grand gesture Milo and Eryk got their happy ending and their family. I love this series and can't wait for the next book. Definitely recommend this book and series.
Narrator Connor Brown does a wonderful job.

Milo and Eryk

Milo Hollywood actor is devastated by the death of his sister leaving 2 yr old Sofia, in her dying breath she tells him to find Sofia's father Eryk Cook. Milo finds him at Get Ink'd and the Custody of Sofia has to be worked out, what they weren't expecting was to fall in love. Beautifully written and narrated

Enjoyable

After the death of his sister, movie star Milo becomes guardian to Sofie, his 2-year-old niece. He contacts Sofie's father, Eryk, a tattoo artist on a reality TV show. Eryk doesn't know that a one-night stand three years earlier resulted in a child. To Milo's surprise, instead of giving up parental rights, Eryk wants to become an active part of Sofie's life. As they get to know each other, an attraction grows between Milo and Eryk. But Milo is in the closet for the sake of his career. Can they make a relationship work?

I loved how these two heroes bonded over Sofie, who is adorable. The physical chemistry between them is strong. Living in the public eye gives them some common experiences, even though their upbringings were very different. All in all, an enjoyable story.

The audio book narration was well done. I wish there had been more differentiation between the two heroes' points of view. Eryk was described several times as having a baritone voice, so it would have been helpful if the chapters in Milo's POV had been pitched higher.

Thanks, Gay Romance Reviews, for the audio ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Milo's sister has died and left him with her two year old daughter to raise. In his grief he goes and punches Sofie's bio dad. Eryk had no idea Sofie existed. Eryk and his twin sister had a rough childhood and vows not to be a dead beat dad, but he has to learn to deal with Milo. Milo is a closeted actor. They begin to grow feelings for one another. I loved their journey!! It was sooo good!! Connor Brown did a fantastic job with the narration!!

Eryk and Milo

I absolutely LOVE this series. This book is about Eryk and Milo. I thought this story was both beautiful and took you on an emotional rollercoaster. Eryk finds out he's a father to Sophia after her mother passes away. Milo was trying to do everything he could to keep Eryk away from Sophia because he thought he was an absent parent. Once he realizes how much Eryk loves Sophia and vice versa things start to heat up between them, even though Milo is not out. Can't wait for the next book.

I received an ARC of this audio for my honest review..

A Passionate "Enemies"-to-Lovers Romance

"Forbidden Ink" may be the hottest Get Ink'd story yet. Tattoo artist Eryk and actor Milo literally collide toward the end of the previous book with a punch-throwing confrontation, and here we learn what lead up to it and journey through the antagonism, anger, grief, sadness, jealousy, caring, passion, and love that comes in the aftermath.

Their lives are thrown together when, upon the death of Milo's sister Maya, Milo blindsides Eryk with the news he is the father of Maya's two-year-old daughter. With custody disputes giving way to visits and raising the girl together, the closeted Milo and former player Eryk can't deny a blazing mutual attraction as their intense passion leads to deepening feelings, life-changing decisions, and a sweet HEA.

Narrator Connor Brown delivers a terrific performance full of emotion and distinct voices. I also like how there's enough character overlap throughout the Get Ink'd series to nicely tie the books together, but they also work as standalones. I received this free review copy audio book by request and have left this honest review voluntarily.
