Synopsis

All's fair in love and war at a tattoo parlor--until a stalker enters the picture--in this deliciously dark romance from the author of the Lakes Hockey series. Even before her father's death, Kelly Everhart always knew Logan Teller was someone she could rely on. Now he's taken over the Black Rabbit tattoo shop and brought her along with him. And while Kelly still finds her former crush and current mentor hot as hell, they're firmly in the friendzone. Or so she thinks . . . Logan's been biding his time, but he's no longer leaving anything to chance--not since Kelly started getting serious with her boring boyfriend. And as Logan manipulates the situation and sabotages the couple every chance he gets, Kelly starts to notice all the ways her Jason doesn't quite measure up to the man who's always been such a huge part of her life. When her relationship with Logan suddenly goes from playful and platonic to strictly sinful, Kelly can't stop herself from falling head over heels. But just as things are heating up between them, she starts receiving anonymous messages with information only a few--including Logan--could possibly know about her. Can she trust him after all? Of Ink and Alchemy is a dark romance with a morally gray MMC and mature content featuring explicit scenes.
