I lured and tricked Tig into a random hookup on social media.
He has no clue he’s anything but random to me.
He has no clue we’ll play by my rules.
He has no clue I’ll seduce him, then dump him because he deserves it.

This is the second book this week that I’ve had to deep pause before I do a full review because the storyline had merit and potential but the execution/style/voice was just ... *sigh*
I don’t want to giveaway any of the story but I have to tell you that for me, Ali was problematic. I don’t understand the choices the author made for her character in about 75% of the cases. If I can’t understand a character, how am I supposed to be able to root for them? So yeah, I had problems enjoying myself with ...more

Art crossed lovers! Amazing!
This is the first book I've read by this author and I enjoyed it tremendously. Ali travels to the states to prove a point and Tig is her target. Even though these two agree to no commitments and no strings attached sex you can feel the attraction they have for one another. I often got frustrated with Ali because she was doing the exact same thing with men that she was trying to prove a point about. And the fact she had chosen Tig as her target when she didn't even kno ...more

Omega Artist is my first read from Hope Irving, and I wasn't disappointed. I struggled for awhile with Alie, I had a hard time warming up to her, maybe because she had appointed herself the job of teaching lessons and I think she bothered me because she was doing the very thing that she accused so many others of doing...making assumptions. She has these ideas about who Tig de Luca is before she's either met or even spoken to the man, which I found hypocritical on her part. She gets her eyes open

I had a love hate relationship with these characters. This book isn't a light read at all, if that's what you're after then bypass it... but...if you're after a story that's full and rich with emotions then look no further.
Tig is a broken man who wants to shut off his feelings and live life in gray colors. He's a tattoo artist and painter who's life didn't go as planned.
Alie is a feminist with a capital F. She's strong, stubborn and loyal to a fault. She's a woman living in a man's world and s ...more

This is not the usual story we get from the Cocky Hero world, this story is full of depth and emotion. Hope Irving has written a beautiful story of two people who are broken in their own ways.
I have to be honest I almost abandoned this story after the prologue, I wasn’t sure where she was taking these characters and I was a bit freaked out. I’m glad I kept going, getting to see Tig and Alie’s lives tangle and then grow was just beautiful.

4.5 Stars for Omega Artist
Hope Irving is a new author to me but that’s about to change because after reading Omega Artist I need to check out other works by this very talented author. I have to be honest I struggled with Ali and it took a while for me to warm up to this character but once I did, boy was I glad I joined this emotional ride.

I was looking forward to Tig’s story and I wasn’t disappointed. Hope was a new author to me and I loved this book by her. This is Tig and Ali’s love story and wow what a story it was. This book has all the feels and will have you hooked as follow them through all the ups and downs. This book is part of The Cocky Hero Club but can be read as a standalone. I received this book as an arc for my honest opinion.

I had a love hate relationship with these characters. This book isn't a light read at all, and it is full of emotions.
Tig is a tattoo artist and painter who's life didn't turn out how he planned for it to be. Because of this he seems to shut down on himself.
Alie is a very strong, stubborn woman. She will not be a woman living in a man's world anymore though.
These two will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Tattoo artist Tig isn’t the same after he loses his high school sweetheart, Delia. His life is suspended in a hellish reality, and he is stuck, unable to truly feel and move on. Going through the motions and prodded along by his best friend Soraya (Yes, that Soraya— from Stuck-up Suit!), he slowly rejoins the living world... Denying himself true happiness and fulfillment secondary to a severe case of survivor’s guilt and grief, he forgets his reality by becoming a manwhore, for lack of a better

I had a little trouble getting into this book and connecting with the main characters. But if you will persevere, and get past the first couple chapters, you will find yourself caught up in it.
For me, once this unlikely pair started messaging, I was vested in the story. The plot was, as some of the others have said, not an easy one. It was sad, dark, depressing, and dismal at times. Both Tig and Alie had had some devastation in their past, and it left them scarred, both emotionally, and Alie al ...more

This was my first book by Hope Irving. It was slow starting but definitely got better. This was not a light read. I was not expecting so many deep emotions that went with each character. They were both dealing with so much pain and not realizing who the other person was deep down at first. So. If you are looking for a book with a lot of angst, grab this.

Omega Artist by Hope Irving is a stand alone novel that is part of the Cocky Hero World. Each story is a spin off the original stories created by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward.
I really wanted to love this book. The cover shows a haunted man, the description vowed of revenge and it was about an artist... the entire package had my name written all over it.
Emotionally, this book is heavy. It will break your heart while you go through your journey with Tig, the passionate tattoo artist and painter. ...more

I'm wrought with deep emotions over Tig and Alie. These two didn't have an easy journey. They both frustrated me at times but nonetheless, I'm thankful to have been able to read their story. If you love books that aren't always fluffy clouds, sunshine and rainbows, that are a little more deeper and darker, then Tig and Alie's story is for you. This was another fantastic five plus star addition to the Cocky Hero Club world.

Wow what a great read!!!
Part of the Cocky Hero series , Omega Artist is a sometimes dark but always enjoyable read.
Tig ( love the name) is the “man whore” tattoo artist or so Allie thought. She had preconceived ideas of what he was and who he was. Until she didn’t.
Allie is the strong feminist to the core. She just wants to be an equal to men.
This quick enjoyable read will have you wanting to jump in and scream and slap them till they listen .

An emotional roller coaster of a ride. The angst and build up of these characters had me at page one. I love a strong female lead and Alie was that. Tig was her match and I loved reading about them trying to overcome their past and become what each other needs. Great book and a well written addition series.

A broken tattoo artist who chooses anonymous hookups over bottomless sorrow. A French influencer who believes in woman empowerment. An online relationship that grows into something they would never have expected... Don't they say opposites attract?

Talk about mixed feelings…
There are wonderful characters here. Tig is a charming man, despite his chosen methode of coping with his wife’s death. The young Alie is a force to reckon with, driven and with a clear view of the world she wants to live in. There are a few side characters that didn’t feel necessary to the story, but they added a lively touch.
There’s also a story here, of intense passion. Of discovering each other and learning to look beyond the facade. There’s a strong feminist messag ...more

Allie is a strong and stubborn feminist, who has chosen Tig who is a so called “man-whore”, and a tattoo artist and painter as her target. The chemistry between these two is off the charts, and Allie soon realises he is nothing like she expects and that her preconceived ideas of Tig who is a widower were not correct, as he is actually a lonely and broken man. To be honest, I struggled to engage with Allie to start with as she was doing the same things that she accuses others of doing. This is a

Hope has grown weary of the double standard that she has encountered when it comes to physical intimacy. Even though she doesn’t know Tig she is about to make an example of him, but he may not be the only that will be surprised by the outcome.
Tig has endured a painful loss which he hides behind self-destructive behavior. When he meets Hope he believes that she will just be another way to temporarily push aside his real feelings, but he is about to find out how wrong he was.

Sometimes commitment sneaks up on you when you least expect it
My first Hope Irving novel and I loved every minute of it. She captures perfectly the idea of women choosing how they wish to live there life, and accept their sexuality without being labeled as a slut. She also shows how Tig had to find himself again after a great loss. I highly recommend

Omega Artist is an interesting book to read.
It has many lead characters..
Trig.. he is a talented tattoo artist.. and in my books. Player.. but there a reason behind his actions.
There is Allie G ( Aliénor) a sweet natured young lady with this thought in mind..
"I didn’t expect the game to quickly escalate into steamy, intriguing, and witty conversations.
I didn’t expect our undeniable virtual chemistry to transfer to real life."

Omega Artist is a very special book for me. I fell in love with it's main character Tig De Luca. You might remember him as Soraya's best friend in Stuck Up Suit. He's a tattoo artist whose life was going pretty great until life plays a hard card to him.

While trying to get his life back together, he meets a fan from his Instagram account, Ms. Alie. She's from Paris, an influencer, independent ...more

I am sorry but after reading about 50 books of this cocky hero club series, I just can't accept the idea of Tig being with someone else except Delia. Especially that someone else is so childish. I think Alie's behavior toward Tig is unreasonable and childish which seem to match her own age but 21-year-old me is more mature than Alie. So yeah, if Tig isn't with Delia, I want him to be with someone worthy than her. Beside that I don't feel any chemistry between Tig and Alie because the author wast

I guess I didn’t read the synopsis for this book or I would have known about Tig getting his second chance at HEA. To say I was shocked when I read about Delia is an understatement.
