Royally Inked

Elle Boon had just hit I to the Stratosphere. Lux is a yummy girl who been around the world and settled in California. She has secrets. T-Rex took one look and knew she was the one. Theriot maybe his real name but due to his size T-Rex it is. Once Lux’s past comes calling; no one touches what his. If you want a sassy,hot steamy, action packed story then this the one to read.

Another fantastic read by Elle Boon as part of the Royal Bastards MC. T-Rex , Theriot, is an enforcer for the club. He is a huge man in every way. Well over 6 ft tall and muscles for days. He kinda scares some people because of his size and his pet is a dragon.

Lux is a tattoo artist and works where the club gets most of their tats done. She has a bad past and learned the only person you can trust is yourself. When someone shows up to torment a client and old school buddy of hers they have to call in help and T-Rex is among the closest. That trouble that was in her past had also become her buddies past trouble. Guess all her secrets are about to be known and nobody wants the trouble she is running from do they? See is T-REX has a problem with it and can she learn to trust him?

First book of this author in this series I've read. Absolutely loved it. What Lux went through no one should. I loved her dog, Loki. T-Rex's pet was unusual to say the least. T-Rex was more than an Alpha male, he took it to the next level, and at 6'5, that's saying something. She's a tattoo artist and good at what she does. When she helps a woman who comes in for a tattoo, that's when her world turns upside down and T-Rex is there to the rescue. There's plenty of action, definitely steamy and a HEA.

Ms. Boon has given us another Outstanding MC read. It’s packed full of Fun, Sass, Action and Romance. I mean what else could an MC Romance reader want? Oh Yeah, it’s also got a sexy tattooed alpha male with a Cajun accent and good old southern charm who also happens to be lethal with nothing but his hands (T-Rex, the club’s enforcer) and a strong, independent woman who has gone from rock bottom to successful and doesn’t need anyone (Lux). Well that is until a 6”5’ beast of a man crosses her path.

Lux and T-Rex’s story isn’t all roses and sunshine, both have a past that haunts them. The storyline is well written and had me laughing, smiling and white knuckling my e-reader from time to time. It is packed full of sassy banter, MC action and sexy heat. I Highly recommend Royally Inked and I can’t wait to see what the author has in store next for the RB/Royal Sons MC.

Theriot Raptor AKA T-Rex is the enforcer for his MC. Lux McDaniels is a tattoo artist at the shop the MC uses. When they come together their chemistry is off the charts.
They both have tragic pasts to overcome. Lux's story was gut wrenching.
You get the danger, the romance, the hot as sin heroes and feisty take no crap heroines that we've come to expect from Elle Boon books, but she always adds a little something you weren't expecting before you get to their Happily Ever After.
I love the awesome and unique names Ms. Boon gives to her characters. And it wouldn't be T-Rex's story without a cameo of his beloved pet dragon, Koko.
Loved this story so much! Can't wait to read the next book!

Another page-turner in Elle Boon's Royal Bastards/Royal Sons MC series. Lux is tough and bada$$ and, after her tragic past, is used to taking care of herself. T-Rex is a smooth-talking Cajun and kick-a$$ MC Enforcer (with some history of his own) who just wants to take care of Lux....if she would let him. When the two of them get together...phew!! The heat and steaminess in the pages definitely burned the tips of my fingers. (You might wanna have a glass of ice water close by.)

I enjoyed this book so much. The MC, the brotherhood, the love and acceptance, dispensing justice, what Lux went through...it all just clutched at my heart. Kudos to the author.

Always a pleasure to read one of Ms. Boon's books. Her MC series are awesome and this addition of T-Rex and Lux is great. I loved the big bear of a man, a bit misunderstood. Lux, someone very strong and she showed just how strong she was by exposing her tragic younger years. There is always humor in her books, and sometimes it's burst out laughing, it's always the right mix for this MC family of misfits, e.g., pineapple juice. Love the alpha's in this MC world.

I voluntarily reviewed this book.

Ok, so I'm a bit late to the party, I haven't read any of the previous stories, but this stood on its own so I didn't feel like I was missing anything. This is also my first read by the author, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Plot wise this was a really good MC story; we get everything a reader could want in an MC read; danger, violence, sexy times that were smoking hot. This did feel a bit rushed, everything happening in a 24 to 48 hour period. I give this 4 stars.

If you want a sassy, hot steamy, action packed, MC story then this the one to read.

In this addition to the series. T.Rex, thinks he is damaged, broken, but is he? He is definitely fit to be the enforcer. Then you have Lux Donaldson a badass tattoo artist who doesn’t take crap from anyone and a fixer of men. When her past catches up with her, she calls for help and T.Rex becomes her protector. Will these two finally cave in to and give love a try?

T-Rex wanted Lux. Lux wanted T-Rex .He was a rb ,she was a tattoo artist. She has a horrible past she was trying to escape from . Then when it comes back to haunt her she won't run again , she is a lot stronger than before and she has T-Rex who wants to claim her, protect her. Can she protect herself?Can T-Rex save her? Can they have a future? This book has it all drama,chaos, fun,passion. A great addition to series and also rbmc...

Just love this series - one of my top two series by Ms Boon.
We start this book back in the tattoo parlour Lux meets u with an old school friend which opens a can of worms and leads T-Rex coming to their aid.
A brilliant read with many twists and turns, it keeps you on the edge of your seat and I honestly couldn't put it down, a gripping read.
The only downside is that I now have to wait for the next in the series to be published.

These two characters have become my favorites in this series. I loved how fierce Lux is but my heart hurt for what she has been through in her past. When she finally settles down in one place, she ends up needing help and that's where T-Rex and his brothers come in. One look at her and he knows she is going to be his but first, they have to get through the trouble that pops up from Lux's past. Can T-Rex and the guys keep her safe? This was a book that I couldn't put down, Emotions were all over the place. I loved their connection and how sassy she is. Awesome book!!!!

This book was a thrill of a read, with an interesting story that will grab you and keep you reading till the end with characters that you cannot get enough of and by the time you have finished the book you are loving them and cannot get enough. This is a book that needs to be on your TBR list, there are no doubts about. It needs to be read.

As always with this author, she's brought ANOTHER incredible read to the table. Twisted Inks Lux and T-Rex's story is
smokin hot! The chemistry with these characters is absolute fire! With all that Lux has been through she deserves everything and T-Rex delivers just that and then some. Author Elle Boon has hit another homerun with Royally Inked.

Lux is my hero

I love this addition to the series. T.Rex is definitely fit to be the enforcer, and Lux is badass. Perfect combination.
I love how Lux doesn't take crap from anyone and takes her problem on herself, but glad T. got there to see her handle it.
I think Lux is my new hero...

Loved it. It is very well written. T-Rex and Lux both have secrets from their past, that could come back to haunt them. They have been circle each other for years until Lux's past comes to her work place and she needs help. I love how the characters from the other Royally books come in to play. A must read book.

This book was soooo good. Once you start you will not be able to put it down. T-Rex and Lux are hotter than hot together. Lux is a spit fire. And T-Rex with all his Cajun glory. A definite do not miss.

Love the pairing of Lux and T-Rex. While they may be guarding themselves you can't help but feel their chemistry coming off the pages. It was sizzling. There is danger, action, and some crazy hot steam here that I was not able to put it down.

Wow, this story is absolutely amazing. I loved Lux and T-Rex.
T-Rex is called to help Lux and her friend, from that moment, he is with her.
What Lux went through in her life, no one should go thru.
Every book of Elle's is better and better. I enjoy this one a lot.

Loved it... as usual

I love Elle's style of writing, and Lux and T-Rex story is awesome! And sexy, and gritty. Elle's stories are a great way to escape into another dimension and observe and become part of the story itself. Lux, on the surface... appears to have it all together. Her tattoo business with her two male counterparts, ( who are like brothers to her).
She lives life on her terms. T-Rex is interested, of course! And slowly pursues her. WOW... can they steam up my glasses! Elle has strong female characters because of the crap they've dealt with and survived. If I had to live through the sh@t these women have, I would most likely end up incarcerated for a good long time. ROYALLY INKED is so good, and brings the occasional tear to your eye as well.
Abusers are the worst. Their God complex, as well as their domination of their partner, to beating and so much more. Some make it out of their situation... and some die.
Thankfully these are stories, and not based on any person in particular. But they sure make you think and maybe appreciate the good man you have. And the same for any guys reading it. Love and appreciate the gift of your person. I recommend Royally Inked, as well as any of Elle's other books.
It's obvious she writes with her heart, snarky sense of humor and the ability to seek revenge on her own terms. I received an ARC, and I always purchase her books. I own them all.
I most definitely recommend ROYALLY INKED.
BRING ON THE HARLOTS!

Holy cow. I knew Ms Boon was a great author but this is simply out if the park amazing. The way it is written is so on point. To have Lux go through such a heart wrenching experience and come out a survivor when plenty would have given up is incredible. Lux did not only survive having her innocence destroyed by everyone who should have loved and cared for her, she beat the odds and came out a strong woman capable of defending herself. Theriot(T-Rex) is everything Lux needs and more. He’s an alpha man but he’s also extremely protective of Lux. When the past comes to call on Lux T-Rex and the RBMC brothers have their back. Because that’s what the brothers are family. And family takes care of family.
This is a must read in my book.

O ... M ... T

I love this book. T-Rex was sexy as hell from the start. Lux was in need and he was there. The only thing I didn't like, was how wordy It is. Sometimes I had to reread a sentence a couple times to understand it. This book is not for speed readers. But the story it's seIf was great. I love T and Lux so much. And reading about the other members from past books was great too. I love me some Keys. His my favorite RBMC member in this series.
Highly Recommend ths book, Even though It's a standalone, I recommend reading the other books in order first, So you know whos Who and their Story.
I recieved an ARC ifthis book. My review is my honest opinion.

I'm really curious about Ember and her friend's relationship... T-rex is a very strong and very tall. He is a man nobody wants 2 get on his bad side but when there is trouble with Lux he will anything he can at anytime 2 protect what he considered his. When he hears the story about what happened 2 her in her past he's beyond pissed and heads will roll some how. after all these yrs she finds out that her friend never knew the truth about what happened 2 her but things go sideways and the trust was already broken with her family then she gets a shock of her life. T-rex isn't going 2 let the best thing 2 happen 2 him in yrs get hurt or worse, but will his favorite girl b ok with it, his beloved pet?

Lux and T Rex story

Triggers waring: sexually abuse on the page. As well talk of it.
Good deal of spice leaving you wanting more.

T-Rex has a past he hasn't wanted to face and he alway Been called a big dude but with the Royal bastards he fits in and don't have to worry about scary his brother's just every one else. He know he scared the firey tattoo artist when he got his tattoo from a friend, but she got his attention.
So one night when he get a call from Ember saying the firey tattoo artist and her client was being threatened he show up with his brother's.

Lux has a past she hiding from and so far it staying where it should in the past until an old friend walks into her shop wanting a tattoo and tell she left her abuseful husband.
