Seven Tattoo Artists and a Single Mom

I was just looking for a tattoo.

I didn’t expect to walk into seven ex-cons who watched me like I was the next thing they’d ruin.

One second, I was a single mom trying to keep my life together.

The next, I was standing inside Swan & Rose…

Surrounded by danger wrapped in ink and muscle—

And something in me cracked wide open.

Seven men.

Criminal pasts.

Sin written across their bodies.

They’re wrong for me in every way.

Too rough. Too intense. Too many.

But every time they touch me, it feels like I finally belong to something real.

I should be running.

For my safety. For my daughter.

For the quiet life I swore I’d protect.

But when a masked stalker starts circling, and my abusive ex resurfaces—

Those seven dangerous men turn savage.

They don’t just want to guard me.

They want to claim me.

Mark me.

And when two pink lines change everything… they make one thing terrifyingly clear:

I’m theirs.

And they’ll burn the world down to keep me.
