Summary

At 23, Poe Montgomery is going nowhere. He still lives in his father’s basement and spends most of his time tagging with his friends. When an arrest lands him in debt, Poe accepts the front desk job at Permanent Ink, the tattoo shop owned by his father’s best friend, Jericho McAslan. Jericho is nearly twice Poe’s age, but with his ink and prematurely graying hair, he quickly takes the starring role in Poe’s hottest fantasies.

Jericho is known for his ability to transform poorly designed tattoos into works of art, but he was once as aimless and misdirected as Poe. Wanting to pay it forward the way someone once did for him, Jericho makes Poe his apprentice and is determined to keep things strictly professional. Easier said than done when Poe makes his interest - and his daddy kink - abundantly clear.

Jericho can’t resist Poe or their intense chemistry for long. But between the age gap, tension with Poe’s father, and Poe’s best friend calling him a sellout, they’ll need to ensure they’re both on the same page before they can rewrite their rocky start into something permanent.

overall great

while there is some daddy kink it was only touched upon with name calling but not overly fetishised so could be enjoyed by those who don't find that floats their boat (such as myself). you get what you expect from the blurb. the relationship was believable and I'm intrigued what will happen next.
the performance could sometimes lie flat but not often and was overall well done.

Great Story

To like this, you have to be comfortable with Age Gap and a little daddy kink (there is no daddy kink per se in this book).

With that out of the way, I can say that I really really like this book. The characters are believable and their interactions too. The way Jericho kept thinking he's been more a father than a lover, you could felt his pain an doubt. The most amazing part is the development of Poe, he starts as a brat and finished as an adult, but also never cease to love his art for graffiti. I thought the graffiti thing would be shown as a bad thing in the end and that made me nervous, but it didn't happen.

Oh about the daddy kink. Here you will not find any punishment or age regression os major spankings. Poe just like to call Jericho daddy in bed because he is older, and I though it was hot as h*ll.

Kirt graves, as always, did a great job. I love his pace, the way he pauses between each phrase and don't go running to finish. The voices were distinct although I didn't really care for Poe's voice, but it's a particular taste, nothing wrong with Kirt's performance. His voice is always a delight to her, that's a big bonus!

The narrator makes the story

This took a while to get going, and whilst I loved Jericho from the start, it took some time for me to warm up to Poe and not just see him as a spoilt brat. The story definitely gets better as it goes along, undoubtedly made more enjoyable by Kirt Graves' performance - he encapsulates Jericho's gruff yet beautifully empathetic nature and whilst Poe grated on me for a while, it was a realistic and hard won turnaround in the end.

Great narrator and story

This was another that I had already read (twice), so I knew I loved the story. Kirt Graves does a great job of making the characters' voices clear - and not just the two main ones. Plenty of emotion - particularly from Poe, which makes sense, well-read, un-rushed, the sex scenes were sexy. Can't ask for more, really!
