Laura Kaye – Hard to Be Good (A Hard Ink Series Novella)

I love mid-series novellas. This one focuses on Jeremy and Charlie. There is a sincerity and kindness between Jeremy and Charlie that makes this an enjoyable read. Unlike other m/m romance books, there is a lot of consideration between the two men. There’s no presumption about what the other one wants, needs, or considers comfortable. There’s mutual respect for the other’s emotional readiness. It ends up coming off in a very sexy playful manner.

Can I touch you? Anywhere? Please. Can I have you? Are you sure?

As in the other books, the tattoos are significant.
