I really liked this, although I felt like this was more Shaw's story than Rule's, but that didn't detract from the story because I found all of the characters in this likeable. 
 I got sucked into the story right away, and things kept moving along quite nicely. This is not an easy relationship for them, and on the surface, they couldn't be more different. But Shaw really sees Rule, not just the image he is trying to put out there with his tattoos, piercings and colored hair. Gotta love a girl for that. 
 I also liked how the ink was a real part of this story, an expression of artistic self. There are also some family moments that really rang true for me, especially the dynamics in Rule's family and the aftermath of Remy's death. I had a pretty good idea what the big secret was at the end, although I didn't anticipate Rule's reaction to it. 
 But when all was said and done, love wins. And that made for a lovely ending.
