Description from the publisher:
I’d
led a selfish existence.
I liked who I was. Hell, I loved myself.
Women threw themselves at me and I took what they offered without remorse. I promised them nothing.
I sank my teeth into life, holding on to the bitch like my very existence depended on it.
Time passed.
Women came and went.
The second I let my guard down and released the hold I had on life… What was my award for such carelessness?
A love so spectacular and heart wrenching that it threw me for a loop. When I was in too deep to escape, my greatest fears became reality.
This is my story.
My downfall.
My salvation.

This is the fifth and final
full-length book in the Men of Inked series.
They each stand on their own, but I would recommend reading them in
order.
Anthony had no intentions of ever
becoming another pu$$y-whipped Gallo-man.
He loved women, all women, with no desire to spend more than a weekend
with any one of them. That all changes
when he meets his Kitty Cat, Maxine Washington.
Max also has vowed to never be involved in a relationship. When she meets Anthony, she pegs him
immediately for the a$$hole he is. How
can two stubborn people fight the sparks that fly when they are together?
The bigger they are, the harder they
fall. Anthony was the most determined of
the Gallos, determined to remain unattached.
So when he falls for the girl he didn’t even know he was dreaming of
finding, he falls even harder and more determinedly.
As much as he was a self-admitted
a$$, I loved Anthony in this story. He
may not have been looking for love, but he didn’t fight it when it found
him. On the other hand, I didn’t immediately
connect with Max. In fact, I was
probably past the half-way point before I started to like her even a little
bit. By the end, I was loving her as
much as the rest of the family.
I really hate that this is the end
of the stories for the Gallos, though Chelle Bliss has hinted that they will
pop into other stories from time to time (and I love when authors do that!). As wonderful as Chelle Bliss is, I am looking
forward to what she brings us next.
