Blurb
He’s rude, obnoxious, and hell-bent on evicting me from the tattoo studio my parents and I worked so hard to perfect. So, it’s not just a shop to me. This place holds life, it affirms love, it contains memories. And when my world fell to pieces twelve months ago, it’s what kept me from doing the same.
Through the darkness, there’s one shining light. A client. Xander. He’s secretive, he comes and goes whenever he pleases, but our connection is obvious. I want more from him. But he’s a mystery.
Two men. Polar opposites. Alex Scott’s a brooding warmonger, hungry for action, constantly emailing and driving me crazy. I won’t let him evict me. While Xander is a kind, sweet, caring soul whose only want is to look after my autistic brother and me. He’s sweeping me off my feet.
Conflict – Betrayal – Lust – Angst
Without exception, my heart will break. One man will put it back together again. But which one?

Excerpt
He leans in doing the strap up on the helmet, his eyes lingering on mine again. A burning sensation runs down my spine as I stare back at him.
It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced before.
It’s intense.
He’s intense, but I like it.
Xander finishes with the strap, then looks at his watch. “I have another half hour or so before the hounds are called. Feel like going for a ride?” he asks.
I gnaw on my bottom lip.
I shouldn’t.
I have a tattoo studio to run. Probably clients waiting. But what’s another half hour, right?
“Half an hour, no more.”
“You’re a bossy little thing, aren’t you?”
I stand taller puffing out my chest. “You have no idea.”
He grins. “You up for going somewhere we’re not supposed to be?”
Excitement builds inside of me. This whole bad boy thing he has going on is really working for me. “Hell yeah, I’m all for breaking the rules.”
My Thoughts <3
Oh man y’all, talk about all the feels! KE Osborn is one of my favorite authors as I love her Chicago Defiance MC series and The Without Series is no exception! 😉
To give a little background- Tomi is a fantastic tattoo artist and her shop is her baby. It not only provides her a livelihood, but it also brings a sense of comfort and memories for her parents and sister that were in a tragic accident a year before. But, there is an evil villan in the story looking to take away her happy place- Alex Scott. There is a shining star though- Xander a super sexy client that makes her feel some type of way though he is wrapped up tight in mystery. What happens when everything blows up, who will be the one to help her through the time? Will either one of them be able to?
AHHHH!! So freaking good! I love how the author was not trying to hide anything from the reader and it was all laid out there. All in all, if you like a good contemporary romance with a secret twist and all the feels and steamy moments- this is “Without Exception” your go to!
