Book Review- Merry Inkmas by Talia Hibbert

 

 Cash Evans knows exactly what he wants for Christmas. Too bad he can't have her.

The infamous tattoo artist's been watching geeky Bailey Cooper for months, but that's all he'll ever do: watch. Bailey's too sweet, too smart, too good for the likes of him, and he knows it. So Cash keeps his distance… until a Christmas miracle makes him Bailey's boss.

Socially awkward Bailey learned long ago that men just aren't worth the hassle. Take her new boss, Cash: he's a brooding beast who avoids her like the plague, but he also fixes her plumbing, helps the homeless, and offers Bailey a place to stay for Christmas.

She's never met anyone so confusing-or so impossible to resist. And the more Bailey learns about Cash and his demons, the more she thinks it's time to stop fighting.

4 STARS

 This story was emotional and colorful.  Colorful beginning with both Cash and Bailey, even their personalities.  They each had big personalities and even bigger hearts. They both had every reason to NOT believe in love and  that love was a very dangerous, destructive illusion.  You find out early in the story why Bailey feels that way and the experiences that she has lived through.  But that doesn't stop her from being VERY attracted to Cash.
  We don't find out until much later why Cash keeps blowing hot and cold when it comes to HIS attraction to Bailey.  She doesn't see herself as a hot babe with her quirkiness and her glasses but he thinks she is cute and she makes him laugh.  By the way, it's good to see the story have a woman in glasses as a main character.  
Some of the color in the story is added by the people in Cash's friends and employees.  But some other interesting people are also added as the story goes along and that includes Cash's mother.
I liked how the story ended and appreciated the good Epilogue.

 

I read this book through the HOOPLA Library App
