Inked Souls: A Bad Boy Next Door Romance

I used to be Lena Rose. The name my mother loved, the name that fit neatly into Beverly Hills perfection. But I'm not her anymore. I'm just Lena. And for the first time, that feels exactly like me. 💫

London was supposed to be my clean slate, and Inkphoric became exactly that—my escape, my chance to build something real. Then there's Ryder. Reckless, addictive, impossible to resist. From the moment we met, it was something wild, passion and danger. Undeniable. But his past isn't just baggage—it's a storm waiting to give me the worst flu that I'm still not immune. 🖤

I've fought too hard for this dream, for a life that's finally mine. But some secrets cut deeper than any tattoo. 

The question is—can I rewrite my own story without getting inked by Ryder's past, or will this love story and his shadows destroy everything I'm building?
