He's used to silence. She's hungry for chaos. Together, they'll rewrite the rules. Theo Ferreira keeps his life simple. Full-time college student by day, part-time tattoo artist by night, he's mastered the art of staying under the radar. Quiet, disciplined, and emotionally detached, he has one goal: finish his degree and move on-no distractions, no complications. Until Nina Cantero walks into his studio. Nina is many things-curious, restless, and bored out of her mind. A full-time student juggling books and babysitting gigs, her days are colorless, repetitive, and too predictable for her own liking. She craves something more. Something daring. Something that makes her feel alive. And lately, that something has taken the form of ink etched into her skin. But she doesn't expect the artist holding the needle to stir a different kind of thrill inside her. From the first glance, Theo is an enigma. Brooding. Focused. Off-limits. And yet, every time she sits in his chair, the air between them crackles with a tension neither of them dares to name. What begins as a harmless escape-a new tattoo, a quiet conversation-quickly spirals into something far more dangerous. Walls start to crumble. Secrets slip out. And Theo, who has spent his entire life keeping the world at arm's length, begins to fall for the one girl bold enough to push past his armor. But what happens when ink fades and real feelings remain? Get ready to dive into a slow-burn, ink-stained romance filled with longing, late-night tension, and two people who were never supposed to collide-yet can't stay away.
