INKED (Gilded Blood #1) is out TODAY and I cannot believe what the early reviews are saying about it! 😱


🔹 PURCHASE LINKS:


🔹 GENRE🔹

(Yay for Jewish people in Fantasy!)


🔹 SYNOPSIS 🔹

When Zayn, your smoking hot boss, tells you never to touch the cache of deluxe tattoo ink locked away in his office, you listen to him… until the day you run out of your own ink, your squirming client is on the verge of peeing his pants, and your boss is nowhere to be found. Desperate times call for desperate measures, right?


I fully expected Zayn to yell at me when he returned to the shop. What I didn't expect was the fresh cobra tattoo on my client’s butt magically springing to life. Or the interdimensional filing cabinet hiding in the back of Zayn's office. And, oh, did I mention that my gorgeous, magic-ink-hoarding boss is actually an incubus?


Now – through (mostly) no fault of my own – we have to venture into a strange and distant land where a never-ending list of lethal flora, fauna, and fae await us. When you add in my Jewish mother’s string of poorly-timed, hysterical phone calls, there is one thing I’m grateful for: There’s no cell service in the fae realm.

NOTE: Although this is the first book in an upcoming series, it can be enjoyed as a standalone - no yucky cliffhangers here!


With all my heart, I hope you'll enjoy reading it as much as I loved writing it!
