My first impression of Noah was beyond who I thought that he would be. Walking into the tattoo shop with confidence, looking hot and was as wonderful as could be. Yes, he is a man that knows what he wants and will not hesitate to go for what he wants. He also has a kind and caring heart. He looks out for those he cares for. Having the background of a mixed martial artist he’s built, fit and sexy as hell. You would think that would make him a bad ass but he’s almost the perfect gentleman.
I have gotten to know and love Zoe through previous installments of the Inked in the Steal City series. Zoe is just wonderful character. She has a good heart, fun to be around, independent, beautiful, and very loyal and family oriented. She will go out of her way to do anything to help her family. Even to the point of self-sacrifice. Zoe is also unique, in that she has celiac disease. I loved that Ms. Rose gave us a gluten free character. Some by choice and others for health, people have to deal with in everyday life. That is a nice touch added for reader to be to relate to in their reading.
Zoe and Noah were meant to be in my book. I don’t want to say it was love at first sight but something was there. From their first meeting at the tattoo shop, to the way he accommodate her by not eating food she couldn’t have in front of her. The two complemented each other. Noah has his moments of being a man where they like to take control and try to make everything right. Zoe is an independent woman and needed someone to stand by your side. From the steamy scenes in the bedroom to tender moments of being coming a couple Ms. Rose gave us a tantalizing read. Noah and Zoe make you want them to fall in love!

Serious Ink: Zoe and Noah 5th: Zoe the long time receptionist at Hot Ink has to take a second job to make ends meet. Zoe is shocked when a sexy suited man walks into Hot Ink, with some really hot Ink under the suit, but the attraction between them is fierce. Noah taking no chance at letting Zoe go, he asked her out and then offers her a job. Can the make things work if his her boss and the passion between them pouring over everything?
I really liked Zoe and Noah, they had more trouble than some of the other couples in this series. Zoe having money and family problems is very real and can pull anyone in. I love how Noah tried to help but seemed to be messing up, but he did it because he cared. Everything was spot on and I could asked for more, even if I wanted it to be longer.

I am a huge fan of this loosely connected series. Most of these books can be read stand alone but fair warning if you read one you will want to read them all.
I felt particularly close to these characters. Noah is a sweet tough guy in a suit trying to make a go of his new business. He is a “fixer”. One of those guys who sees a problem and wants to make it better especially if the person with the problem is someone he cares about. Zoe is struggling to do it all herself. She doesn’t want someone to “fix it” she wants someone to stand by her side and encourage her.
Both of these folks are not at a place in their lives where they are looking for love but it finds them and you get to be along for the ride. Another sweet and sexy story from Ranae Rose.
I was lucky enough to receive an advanced copy from the author in return for a fair and honest review. I honestly enjoyed this quick, sexy, fun read. Thanks so much Ms. Rose.

Book 5 in the series definitely has the hottest cover! Just felt like that needed to be said right off. Haha. I was so excited waiting for this to come out and read it pretty much immediately - though reviewing it took a fair bit longer.
Much like the rest of this series, I absolutely loved it. It's funny seeing Zoe in the other books, you don't really realize how much she's going through - just kind of the perky receptionist in the background - but now we know that it's not all sunshine and roses for her. Or, I guess it is by the end of this book. This was great - it took my preconceptions of a character and turned them on their head. I love when that happens. I still really liked her too (which makes it even better)! Noah was also awesome - and clearly perfect for her. A well-written duo for sure!
The plot was also good. Quick moving and never boring. I did want someone to punch her boss at the frozen yogurt shop though. Can that happen in a future book? Please? It was a good story. I just loved it.

This book was one of the best of the series for me, I have loved them all but the tattooed executive all covered up under that stuffy suit just makes you go yum!!!! I don't think I was ready for this book to end as soon as it did though, it seemed to me that there may have been a little more story to tell on this one before it ended! other than that another awesome book!!!

Zoe loves her job as receptionist at Hot Ink, but in order to make ends meet she takes a second job. One night at the end of her shift Noah walks in for his appointment with Jed. Noah asks Zoe out to dinner and Zoe finds the offer hard to resist. By the end of the night Noah knows he wants to spend as much time with Zoe as possible.
Zoe is a character in the series I have wondered about for a while. It was nice to read about her. Her determination and love for her family is so evident. She fits in wonderfully with the other Hot Ink employees. What makes Zoe a unique character is her need for a gluten free diet. It is Noah’s embracing of that need that makes him completely lovable to me. Right on their first date he declined the rolls the waitperson was putting on the table. There is something about these Inked in the Steel City heroes they all just melt my heart. They are all guys I would want in my life or in my friends & families lives.
This is an easy read. No major heart pounding emotional scenes. I felt the attraction and love between the characters. Their conflict that tore them apart was plausible, and the resolution was believable. The intimate scenes between Zoe and Noah were steamy and just the right amount for the plot. We get a glimpse at former series heroes and heroines which I always welcome when reading a series.
I am wondering who is next in this series because I know fans like myself do not want to see it end. I will definitely be reading any future installments.
