Serena’s journey to obtaining her first tattoo will leave anyone excited and energized. Whether you have a tattoo yourself or not is incidental. Anyone can relate to the natural reluctance of one to get their first tattoo. Those of us that have tatttoos can relate to the unequaled high of using your skin as a canvas to illustrate something you like or take pride in displaying. This story is a quick, satisfying ride that delivers on so many levels. You appreciate Serena’s decision to get a tattoo as well as her choice of tattoo. When she dreams of the guy on her back, and he takes her to undiscovered frontiers, I definitely needed a cold shower. The fact that this author can pack so much passion and emotion into a couple of dozen pages makes my mouth water for a full length novel by her. Hot, hot, hot.

When I read the book, I could see where the author drew her characters loosely on the Sex and the City girls. Almost all women have girlfriends that they can complain to, cry with and generally be themselves without fear of being judged. Nico, Fran and Audrey are three such women. I loved their comraderie and sarcastic wit. Most women can relate to Nico’s reluctance to put herself out there to possibly be rejected. Jeff’s relationship with his childhood friend epitomizes the guy type of relationship. Jeff and his friend, Ryan, go out to drink beer and shoot pool; a typical guy evening. However, when Jeff realizes the pool night is really a speed date night, I laughed until I cried. I can imagine the look on his face as a mixture of horror, fear and resignation all at once. The way the author uses the various areas of the city to bring the two wannabe lovers together is priceless. The by-play between the friends to insure the end result was well-written, fresh and unexpected. I particularly enjoyed the exploration of relationships from both points of view. That is not often reflected in such an impressive way. This book is the perfect length for someone looking for a short story with a lot of meat and substance to it without having to go through hundreds of pages for the heart of the story. I look forward to the next Savannah Chase book because I am sure it will be money well spent.
