TYLER (Inked Brotherhood, #2) COVER REVEAL
New Adult contemporary (erotic) romance
by Jo Raven
Cover by Jo Raven
Synopsis
Four years have passed since I left home, my parents, and my brother Asher behind – since I shut out my past. And Erin. Four years since I last saw her, since I heard her voice and held her in my arms. I’ve spent my time forging a path from woman to woman, from bed to bed; trying to find an answer. But I think I’ve lost my way. There’s no light at the end of the dark. No big surprise. I carry the dark inside me. I’m a bastard – branded as such from the start. I never give my phone number and address; I take my pleasure and don’t come back for seconds. No commitments; no promises and no happy endings. Yeah, I’m a bastard down to the bone and I don’t give a damn. But now I’m back in my birth town, the town I fled at eighteen – back to make amends to the brother I abandoned and watch from afar the only girl I’ve ever wanted. Hope isn’t a currency I can afford; I learned that lesson long ago. Yet when she looks at me and says my name, I can’t help but hope.
This is book 2 in the Inked Brotherhood series which started with Asher. It is a stand-alone work. No cliffhanger.
Excerpt
“Why, Tyler? Tell me why you left.”
“I don’t wanna talk about it,” he grinds out.
I want to bang my fist on his chest and slap his face.
My fingers curl against the soft fabric of his T-shirt, and I feel his muscles clench underneath.
“Screw you,” I whisper and I hope my voice won’t break and betray me.
“That’s all you have to say to me? I’m not going to—”
“You’re so beautiful,” he whispers.
Shocked into silence, I stare at him.
His gaze is moving over my body, a hot, silky glide that steals my breath.
His pupils are dilated, making his eyes look black.
I try again.
“After all this time, I just want to know—”
His hand hooks around my back, pressing me to his body, and he bends his head toward me, dark hair falling in his eyes.
His mouth descends on mine, sealing the words inside.
The world falls away with a murmur as he kisses me. I gasp and his tongue pushes inside, tangling with mine.
He licks at my mouth, and he tastes so good – like dark chocolate and pepper.
Familiar.
Thrilling.
Sexy.
I want more.
I slide my arms around his hips and kiss him back.
His chest vibrates against me as he moans and then he drags me closer, until my breasts are crushed against his firm abs.
A tiny voice in the back of my mind is screeching in protest – this shouldn’t be happening, we should be talking, explaining, finishing this off – but it’s drowned in the rushing of blood in my ears, the thundering beat of my heart.
His smell, his taste, the feel of his muscular body, it all sends waves of scalding heat over my skin, through me, tightening the tips of my breasts, starting a pulse between my legs.
I cling to him as I burn from the inside out; I desperately need him – need to feel him around me, against me, inside me.
Everywhere where he’s been missing for so long.
His hands move down to the small of my back, then lower, lifting my skirt.
He swallows my moan of protest and slips a hand round the front, inside my panties.
I gasp as his callused fingers touch me, slide inside me.
Oh god, oh crap. It feels so good.
He strokes me, rough and tender, soft and hard, until my body starts to shake.
Pleasure rips through me, tearing me apart.
“Why, Tyler? Tell me why you left.”
