Good!

I liked Lilly and Dylan and how their relationship was developed. The supporting characters were fun and I think would make great stories as well. There was a nice mix of drama, emotion, sweetness and suspense.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.

Armed and Inked tells the story of how Dylan, a piercer for the titled tattoo shop, falls in love with Lilly, the co-owner who has just returned home from college. This book captivated me and I found myself smiling the whole time I read it. I did have some issues with the editing, I would like to have had the chapters begin on separate pages than the last and there were many errors in spelling and grammar. I, however, am not an expert on that matter and it could very well be the result of the format in which it was sent to my kindle for downloading. All in all, the book was fantastic and I look forward to reading the sequel and more from this author.

I received a free copy from Netgalley in return for my honest review. The views expressed above are those of my personal opinion.

Great storyline with a few surprises. I like the tat shop drama and staff stories. Well written with a HEA.

Armed and inked was a good story that was very fast paced. It had lots of suspense and a mystery behind it. Lots of steamy sex scenes. The lure of a good relationship that you were able to watch unfold from conception to the end.

A wonderful read I really enjoyed it and recommend giving it a try it’s really enjoyable and well worth reading hope u enjoy it like I did

Title: Armed and Inked
Author: M. S. Swegan
Genre: Contemporary Romance

📚🤓 The Book Whisperer 🤓📚

A great cast of characters and an enjoyable storyline with a HEA made Armed and Inked an enjoyable read.

The book itself was packed full there was action and suspense, moments were I was literally on the edge of my seat, camaraderie and nemeses with added amusement and drama.

On the whole the book has all the promise to be a five star read it just needs a good editor to go over it, for that reason alone it’s a solid 4/5 from me.

I’m going absolutely crazy over this one!
The characters, the fact that it’s not solely erotica.. it’s amazing!

I received an ARC of Armed and Inked from Netgalley, and this is my honest opinion. This is the first book of Ms. Swegan's that I have read. Dylan is the new piercer at Armed and Ink. Lilly just graduated college and moves back to work at Armed and Ink again alongside her brother. Upon meeting each other, Dylan and Lilly have an instant connection and attraction. As Dylan and Lilly get to know each other better at the shop and outside of it, there are others who are secretly jealous and waiting and watching in the dark to tear them apart. Will Lilly and Dylan's budding relationship blossom or will it detonate and crumble?
Armed and Inked's characters are very well written. I fell in love with certain ones while despising others. The plot is solid and kept me on my toes trying to guess what will happen next. I highly recommend this book to those 18+ due to the sexcapades. There may be some triggers in this story. I sincerely hope that this is the first in my books to follow. I look forward to reading what will happen next and to whom! Thank you Ms. Swegan and Netgalley for introducing me in to your world.

Loved this book. Just enough personality for each character, sexiness, drama and angst for my liking. I can’t wait to read the next one in this series.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this book In exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed reading this title.
I found it fast and fun.
The characters are engaging and easy to like and the plot was quick paced with a few twists along the way.

I have to say the cover was a pleasure to look at too .
I'll be keeping an eye out for Shanes story coming out next.

I enjoyed this read it was a fast paced and quick read but it wasn’t lacking in depth or quality because you really feel the tension and desire the characrers have for each other. I also enjoyed the drama because it was unexpected. One thing that was a little confusing was that scenes would change from one paragraph to the next mid page so I would have to go to each paragraph and see if I missed something but this did not take away from the story too much. I can’t wait to read Shane’s story.

"Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy of this book, in exchange for an honest review."

Loved this book very much. It had just enough comedy & HOT romance and the storyline was great! I highly recommend!

This is the first book I have read M S Swegan but was such a great introduction that I will now be looking for more of their work

Dylan is the new piercer at Armed and Ink the tattoo/piercing shop where Lilly's brother works. Lilly is also returning to work there once again. The attraction between Lilly and Dylan is instant and boy do they steam up the pages definitely 18+ for the content but as their connection deepens both at work and personally people will try to come between them . Will there relationship flourish or will other peoples jealousy tear them apart You need to read to see what happens in this wonderful book

I was given a copy of this book but this is true and honest review

Who wouldn't love a built guy with tats all over? This story had me from page one. I loved the interactions between Lilly and Dylan. They just seemed made for each other. Lilly has her own personal fears she must overcome throughout the story. The twist in this story had me on edge. This is one you will want to pick up! It was a wonderful, sexy story of love!

A brilliant read with a brilliant storyline and characters and I will look forward to reading more from you from this author thank you for my arc

I LOVED this book!! Great characters and a very intriguing plot, it held my attention the whole time. Lilly and Dylan have an immediate attraction. Lilly just came back from her vacation and Dylan is the new hire at the Tattoo shop she co owns with her brother. They soon overcome the hesitation of working together, and things get hot! . There's a few twist that tests their new relationship, that made it an even better story.

I really enjoyed this book. Dylan is a tattoo artist in Shane and Lilly's tattoo place. Lilly is finally home from college to help with the books and running the place. She and Dylan are immediately attracted to each other but take it a little slow. Not very though. Several people are jealous of their relationship though and cause major problem. The book moved swiftly and I loved the ending. I look forward to more of this author's books

This book was a great love story and page turner to read and I will definitely be reading more of this authors work. Now I just need to get the next book. I also thought the cover was really hot. Thanks Netgalley for allowing me another chance to read a book.

From the first page this book intrigues and compels to continue reading. It paints a picture of a brother and sister who have stuck together through tragedy. Having eachothers backs as they both grow up. The book is an amazing read that has you loving the characters as they appear and you learn more about each one.

I highly recommend this book.

The cover drew me in. This is my first book by MS Swegan, but I will look for her book sin the future. I liked Lily and Dylan's story and enjoyed the other characters at the Tattoo studio. Quick easy read. Thank you for the advance reader copy!

Great book. It's a wonderful "love at first sight" book. The chemistry between these two was smoking. The complexity of the family tattoo and the "unwritten rules" of love and the workplace gave the story a boost. I loved the flow of this story and the little bit of mystery. Very descriptive and loaded with very hot guys and sweet girls who are as tough as they men. Great read and I will definitely read more by this author!!

I really enjoyed this book. There is just enough personality details written in for each character; makes you feel like you really know them all. All the sexiness and drama are just what I like in a good nightime-reading book. I simply can't wait to read the next book in this series, I'm impatiently waiting its arrival!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this book In exchange for an honest review.
This was a fun and fast paced book. I really enjoyed it. This is my first book from this author and it def will not be my last.
Dylan is a new piercer that is buddy’s Tattoo and Piercing shop.
Lilly is Co-Owner of A&I (Armed and Inked)..She has just graduated college and moves back home to start working again at Armed and Ink alongside her brother.
Lilly and Dylan have an immediate attraction, Lilly is hesitant due to a past relationship that ended very badly – but soon enough she goes in with her heart and just WOW! This book does have a couple twist and I think that made it that much better..

I cant wait for Shanes book!!

At first glance what drew me in was the cover, then the title. This book was great. LOVED it. It combined all things I love in a romance book.

A really great book that had everything you could want. There was romance, sexual attraction, tattoos and drama. It was well written with excellent character development. It was a wonderful experience to read.

I love Dylan and Lilly's story. It's very catching and draws you into the book. This book was amazing and definitely a page Turner. I read it straight through without ever putting my book down.

I really enjoyed this story. It's not only well written but engaging. It keeps you guessing and wanted more. It gets your emotions riled up and captivates you to the end. The characters are colorful and fulfilling. I couldnt get enough

Dylan is the new piercer for the tattoo/piercing shop that Lily's brother owns. Lily has returned home from college, ready to pick up where she was before she left. Dylan and Lily have instant chemistry. This was an interesting story, just needed a bit of editing.

I received a copy of this book via Netgalley and am leaving a review.

I always love books with tattoo artists. I find tattoos an amazing way of expressing ourselves, and personally I want to get some tattoos in the near future, I just got my first one this week. So the first time I saw the cover and read the blurb I was immediately curious.

This romance novel about Lilly and Dylan, and I much say that as newly graduated young woman, I could relate to Lilly, although she already know what she will be doing and I’m still thinking about my options. Nevertheless, she was a fun character to read about. Then there is Dylan, and he was sweet, kind, hot, and determined kind of person, and it was refreshing to read about a piercer instead of just tattoo artists. Plus he was an ex-military man, which of course just adds some extra power to his personality.

That been said, I think the characters were well written, and I would love to read more books about other characters. I would love to read Jen and Maddox’s love story, there were so sweet and Jen was a firecracker, I would love to have a friend like her that knows how to tattoo. And then there is Shane. Can I read about about him too? He needs love. And there is something about him that is mysterious and I’m curious about it.

Besides the characters I loved the plot. Although the romance was sweet, but since this is a contemporary romance that is also in the erotic genre, it had some hot sexy scenes. They had chemistry and they really were very cute together, and you could see that from the initial attraction, their relationship started to develop and you could see they really cared about each other and that it wasn’t just attraction.

Overall I loved it. The plot was great, I loved the suspense because I wasn’t sure who was behind it all. And I recommend it, just keep in mind that it’s a erotic romance.

A Contemporary Romance novel with tattoos, great friends, sexy scenes and suspense that made me stay at the edge of my seat and want to read more, no matter if it was the mystery or the erotic scenes.

Very nice story. I liked the storyline and the characters were well thought out. I really enjoyed reading it.

Really enjoyed this one. I loved the plot and thought the characters were really well written. This one had some really great sexy scenes in it. And the cover is gorgeous. Would definitely recommend.

Lily returned home and was ready to take her place by her brother’s side running Armed and Inked. Things have changed at their tattoo parlor. Since their success continues to grow so does their staff. Meeting Dylan was something she never expected since she had zero luck with men. Her past relationship still haunts her as she tries to have another. When a threat appears, he will do anything to protect her bringing them closer together reminding her there are good guys out there.

I received a copy of this ebook for an honest review. At the time I received it there were some grammatical errors, but they didn’t distract me from the overall story. But, I will say that Miss. Swegan has given us the kind of story I like reading. We get a good love story that has a few problems for the main characters, and then there is a little suspense/mystery thrown in that makes you question what’s going to happen. You get to learn, like, and feel for all the characters in the story. And then you get that HEA that you want. I can’t wait to see who, and what, Book 2 is about.
