Tattooed Memories
by L. Ann
This story had everything I love in a romance book. It had a smoking hot, dirty talking, broken Rockstar and a smart and sweet heroine. I loved the connection between Gabe and Harper. I loved the childhood friendship and how it grew into something else. I love that Gabe doesn't see himself worthy of her and always pushes her away. Their coming back together story is just as sweet. Harper doesn't see the rockstar the newspapers say he has become. She sees the boy she used to know. The beaten and battered boy who she has always loved. Through out the story you get to see little pieces of Gabe's heart. Not only with Harper but with the rest of the world. Little things he has done with his stardom that no one else knows.
The only thing I didn't like and the reason I didn't give this book 5 stars is I felt like the climax was rushed and unrealistic. It felt like the girl who Gabe thought was stalking him and Harper had said her piece and was backing off then we find out that Miles, Gabe's bodyguard is the one who kidnaps Harper and he does it for his sister who is the former stalker. I just felt his reasons for doing it were off. Through most of the book, I thought the kidnapper was going to be his father. In the end, I'm glad it wasn't because I liked that story arc.
Never the less, I loved the way the two overcame and come back together. I loved the Epilogue and getting to see the other guys a little more. I can't wait to read the next one in the series.
Also, I need to make mention of this cover art. One of my biggest pet peeves on most authors book is the cover model isn't the person described or the one I pictured. But this cover goes to new levels. This IS Gabe!!!!! Down to the tattoos and the Lavender fingernails holding his arm. I love it!!! Props to the designer!!!
