One locked safe, a troublemaking tattoo, and two determined people… add up to unlocked secrets and a love that just won’t stop.  Luke “Lucky” O’Conner is a committed bachelor. His motto…“Nobody’s ever getting this Lucky.” So when Kaley Harlow walks into his tattoo shop and somehow leaves with the only record of the numbers to his new safe tattooed on her sexy little hip, Lucky’s motto is threatened. If he wants to see those numbers again, he has to get close. Closer than he’s ever gotten to any woman. And he has three weeks to do it.

Who doesn't like a tattooed bad boy? I know I do.  But what if the bad boy isn't really bad and just misunderstood?  

Lucky is the owner of a tattoo parlor chain called The Inkwell. He has expiration dates for the women he sees and is committed to being single.  That is until good girl Kaley shows up in one of his recliners for a tattoo.  After a few mishaps Lucky adds the numbers to his safe into the tattoo he is giving her.   Unfortunately she leaves without him knowing her name.  

Lucky now needs to find this mystery girl so he can get the number to access his safe so he has the deeds to open more tattoo parlor's. The last thing this committed single man could ever imagine was falling in love,  problem is will she love him back when he reveals his secrets and the true reason he went searching for her?  Is she just looking for a wild ride with a bad boy and wants to move on?

You can find out by reading Lucky Numbers.  I really enjoyed this book.  I was so sucked it I read it in 5 hours.  I couldn't put it down.

  Kelly resides in a quiet suburb somewhere between Buffalo and Niagara Falls, NY. Her day job? Kelly works in health care representing a group of nursing facilities in the WNY area. She’s been faithfully writing for three years but did write her first book ten years ago. She put it down to raise her son as a single mom and then picked it back up when she and her son finally grew up. That's when she settled into her newly married adult life and started to seriously write again. She's dabbled with Romantic Suspense stories, but recently she's been on a contemporary kick. The recipe for the men in her stories: a dash of bad boy attitude, a cup of strong and confident and, of course, besides being packed with magnificent bodies, and doused with shameless aptitudes, they must have a tender heart you want to rip out of the pages (or your e-Reader) and take to bed with you at night.

 

Lucky Numbers Adult Excerpt

“Put your hand under your dress,” he said, his thumb still stroking that damn wet beer bottle like it was her clit. Kaley turned to see if anyone was watching. “Hey!” Lucky’s stern voice whipped her head back to him. “Look at me. Don’t worry about anyone else. I’ll warn you if someone is coming.” His feet spread her legs farther apart. “Where you’re sitting, I’m the only person who can see you. Now, do as I say, unless you want me to stop.” His daring eyes held hers, and all discretion slipped out of her grasp. She gave him his answer by dropping her hand beneath the table. “That’s good,” he rasped, deep and low. “Now place your hand on your thigh and slide up to the top of it. Are you there yet?” She nodded. “I want you to grip it hard.” With her heart racing and wishing his hand was there instead of hers, her fingers dug into her flesh. His eyes raping her of any reluctance, he bent forward and grunted, “Harder.” Noting all the hot spots, the tight grip he had on the beer, his biceps and the tattoos bulging from the cut of his sleeves, his mouth that lay slightly open, Kaley squeezed tighter. “Are you wet?” “Yes,” she gasped, clinging tighter to her thigh. “I’m so wet.” His tongue tapped his top lip. “Are you throbbing?” “God, I’m aching for you,” she said, and she meant it, for she wanted nothing more than his tongue on her. “Kaley,” he said, swaying closer, tempting her, “tell me, is your pussy mine?” “Yes,” she breathed out. “It’s all yours.” “Then touch what is mine.”
