Last Week to Get Your Bonus Hard Ink Short Story!

In Hard to Be Good, Nick gets two new tattoos done by his brother Jeremy. The thought of what happened when Nick showed those tattoos to Becca wouldn’t leave me alone, so I wrote a short story called Only, Always, Forever just about that scene – and it ended up being scorching hot and so, so sweet! And remember those skin markers from Hard As It Gets? Yeah. They make a reappearance in this story. Just saying.

Nick Rixey walked into his bedroom and saw something that would never get old—Becca Merritt in his bed.
In the dim glow of the bedside lamp, she lay curled on her side on top of the covers, her wavy blond hair sliding over her cheek and neck. One of his old gray Army t-shirts draped loosely over her upper body and hips, but her legs were bare.
He’d never seen anything sexier. And he’d never been more in love.
Hell, he’d never been in love before at all.
But since they’d met almost a month before, Becca had stood up for him, put herself in harm’s way for him, and devoted herself to clearing his name. And along the way, she’d stolen his heart. Right after she’d put it back together again.
Nick hadn’t thought any of that possible. Not given the anger he’d carried around since a roadside ambush in Afghanistan had killed half of Special Forces teammates, torn apart his own body, and ultimately resulted in his other-than-honorable discharge from the Army. He’d felt cold and hard and dark inside for so long. Until he’d found his Sunshine.
Standing in front of his closet, he took off his boots and stowed his gun in the safe. It was crazy that he had to remain armed within his own home, but given the attack on their building early yesterday morning, they all had to be prepared for absofreakinglutely anything.
Which was why Nick needed Becca to know exactly where he was where she was concerned. He’d made the mistake of withholding information from her once before, and he’d never do it again. And, truth be told, yesterday’s attack had put things in all kinds of perspective for Nick. A rocket launcher had taken out most of the roof on which he and his team had been standing, and that near-miss had filled him with a big-time sense of urgency. No way was he taking the chance that something might happen to him without having said what needed to be said.
He’d told her he’d loved her before, of course, but tonight he really needed her to know just how much…
