Took a break from Liam’s story to read this one. A small intro for Wyatt, plenty of sex in the Cupid story with Royal, Nash and Zade. A couple of duplicates from the end of the books and some sweet moments with the others. It was nice to see how everyone was getting on.

DANI'S WILD NIGHT
takes place during FROM ASHES
4 stars

Well hello DANI'S WILD NIGHT was very sexy! Dani has been doing her best to flirt with Beau, the sexy bartender, and after meeting Beau's roommate and friend with benefits she's even more intrigued. These three were very hot together and I'd love to have more of their story or even just Beau and Cas.

A TATTOO COMPETITION
takes place after INKED IN VEGAS
4 stars

A TATTOO COMPETITION was cute and I enjoyed revisiting Adam and Nox who are one of my favorite couples from the series. After the Heathens Ink crew got to meet the band Downward Spiral they mentioned getting some tattoos, so it was cool to see that follow-up.

LIAM'S FIRST TATTOO
takes place after INKED IN VEGAS
4 stars

LIAM'S FIRST TATTOO was so much fun! I'm enjoying the setup for Liam and Owen's story and I can't wait to finally meet Wyatt who is supposed to be the third in their relationship.

OUT OF FOCUS
takes place after INKED IN VEGAS
4 stars

I love that we get to see Liam growing up in OUT OF FOCUS and become the person he's always wanted to be and I can't wait to read his book! This was also a great introduction to Wyatt so now I'm really looking forward to reading FLASH ME.

MADDEN AND THANE'S DATE NIGHT
takes place after INKED IN VEGAS
4 stars

MADDEN AND THANE'S DATE NIGHT was a great addition because Madden and Thane are the original couple of this series. It was fun to see them again and see the family that they've made.

DEAR CUPID
takes place after FLASH ME
4 stars

Royal, Nash, and Zade are one of my favorite couples in this series so I was thrilled to revisit them in DEAR CUPID and get more of their story. The different Valentine's Day gifts they came up for each other were cute and sexy and exactly what I would expect from these guys. This is fairly short but it's packed with lots of heart and steam. And I really enjoyed the little moments with some of the other Heathens Ink crew.

BABY JAY IS BORN
takes place after FLASH ME
4 stars

BABY JAY IS BORN brings all the Heathens Ink guys and their growing families! This was short but really sweet as we see Gage and Beck finally becoming parents.

WYATT'S FIRST INK
takes place after FLASH ME
4 stars

WYATT'S FIRST INK was a cute story about Wyatt getting his first tattoo so he can match his men. Sweet and simple but it was nice to see these guys making plans for their future.

Contains Spoilers

I really enjoyed getting these bonus scenes/short stories from the Heathens Ink Series and seeing snippets from all the guys in certain defining moments that were featured during the timeline of the Series.

Out of Focus - I rated this 3.5 stars but I rounded it up. I read this completely out of order since it was included as a bonus at the back of the Heathens Ink Series Collection so I read Flash Me first. I enjoyed reading about Liam’s graduation, seeing him come into who he was meant to be but still struggling with the decision about bottom surgery. He still really wants Owen and thinking that at 18 years old he’ll tell Owen how he’s liked him for years as he’ll finally be an adult but now he’s reached 18 he knows he’s still not an adult yet so has a bit more growing to do and be able to stand on his own two feet as his brothers have done so much for him. Then he’ll be able to tell Owen how he feels about him. I enjoyed the moment that Liam met Wyatt since they’d been friends for awhile before they started dating during Flash Me and the moment that Liam felt something for Wyatt like he felt for Owen.

Dear Cupid - I really enjoyed this short story and getting more Royal, Nash & Zade. Royal totally cracked me up with his k*nky Valentines Day gift list for Cupid, exactly like kids do at Christmas writing gift lists for Santa. This story made me smile and I really think that Royal handled the misunderstanding overhearing Nash and Zade talk about getting Royal a new puppy for Valentines Day but he thought they were talking about getting a baby as that’s what it sounded like. He didn’t freak out he just asked his friends who either have a baby or one on the way how they knew that they were ready for a baby. Even though he was completely freaking out on the inside as he never really thought about kids but at least the misunderstanding allowed them to talk about their future and the possibility of fostering teenagers who’ve had a rough go of things. Royal was so excited that his gift was an adorable puppy. It was totally meant to be as the puppy is called Prince. Nash and Royal’s gift to Zade made me laugh. The chemistry between these three even after being together for so long is still completely off the charts, as well as hot a f*ck. I’d recommend this book, series and author to everyone.

Madden & Thane’s Date Night - I enjoyed this bonus scene of Madden & Thane’s first date night since the girls were born. I love how worried Madden is about leaving the girls. I loved seeing the original Heathens Ink couple starting their family and I just know they’re going to be great dads.

Owen Becomes a Heathen - I loved seeing the moment that Owen came into Heathens Ink for a job and that he felt some sort of tangible connection when he locked eyes with Liam. It wasn’t a sexual thing because he’s not a creep but it definitely was something. As we only got to see if from Liam’s POV in going Commando.

Dani’s Wild Night - I enjoyed getting to see Dani, Beau & Cas’s night together. I’m looking forward to reading more about the dynamics of Beau and Cas’s relationship when they the third they actually need. Dani finally got the wild night with Beau the hot bartender and his housemate and police detective Cas that she’s been wanting for awhile. I hope Dani eventually gets her happily ever after, even if it’s off page.

Liam’s First Ink - I enjoyed seeing Liam get his first tattoo by Owen which his brother Royal was definitely pouting about. I loved how when Liam told Owen that in a dream he had the owl tattoo and all he knew was that he was happy. Liam thought Owen was going to laugh at him but Owen told him that it actually makes a lot of sense. He also told Liam that he’s a firm believer in intuition and things that are meant to be. He also said that the owl mightn’t mean something to Liam now, but one day it will. Spot on Owen it ends up meaning everything to him. O - Owen, W - Wyatt, L - Liam it’s actually a representation of their relationship.

A Tattoo Competition- I liked seeing that the meeting of Downward Spiral in Las Vegas when the Heathens Ink Family all went there for Madden & Thane’s bachelor’s party actually came to something. I doesn’t surprise me that Royal struck up a friendship with their eccentric keyboardist Benji. I loved seeing Nox growth with tattooing and being entered into a tattoo convention and is tattooing a Benji no less. No wonder he’s nervous of messing up. I loved how supportive Adam is of Nox and how much he believes in him.

Wyatt’s First Ink - I loved seeing Wyatt get his first ink, the same owl that Owen tattooed on Liam years prior that came to Liam in a dream that he had no idea what it meant but he was happy. Owen already has the owl so now Wyatt has it as well. Considering the O - Owen, W - Wyatt, L - Liam actually represents their relationship. I enjoyed seeing the progression of their relationship as they all seem to be madly in love as during Flash Me Owen and Wyatt didn’t have much time to cultivate their relationship together so it was nice seeing their flirty loving moments while Owen was tattooing him.

Baby Jay is Born - I enjoyed reading the bonus scene of Gage and Beck becoming dad’s. I loved seeing how all their Heathen Ink family showed up to wait for them at the hospital while their newest family member arrived. Total family/friendship goals.

I’d definitely recommend this book, series and author to everyone.

Lots and lots and lots of binge-reading in my near future. Let's finish the Heathens Ink and Inked series with: "Heathens Ink Short and Bonus Scenes" (by K.M. Neuhold).
["Love, Pain, and Ink. The men of Heathens Ink Tattoo Studio have a lot to work through, but they always do it together.
� Madden and Thane's first date night after their babies are born
� When Owen became a Heathen
� Nox enters a tattoo competition
� Gage and Beck's little man is born!
� Wyatt gets his first tattoo
� Out of Focus- the short story of Liam's graduation from high school. You won't want to miss this special moment!
� Dear Cupid- Royal and his men are ready for Valentine's day, and it's going to be a steamy one!"]

This was the perfect ending to the Heathens Ink and Inked series. It was all (mostly) happy additions and fluffy moments. Of course, there was also a bit of angst and a lot of steam.

Wonderful

This little book of Shorts and Bonus Scenes are wonderful. I think there are a few that could still be done for this series including the Inked series if you read it in order. I followed the order that is set between Heathens Inked and the spinoff series Inked if you read Heathens Inked. The only thing I did miss was Johnny’s story. It’s no longer offered on Prolific Works. 🥹
Other than that I loved it. 😍

Loved is not a strong enough word!

Km Neuhold gives us a book of stories from all of our favorite people from Heathens Ink. Some of them I had already read and some of them were New to me but every single story is great. It felt like a gift to read about everyone!

I enjoy reading short stories of characters after the books or series are done. I loved the Heathen’s Ink family. If you loved them too you will love the shorts.
