Tattoo by Cambria HebertMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Book Description:
A tattoo gets them in trouble… He will get them out.
After years of cultivating an undercover identity, Brody West is finally off the case and free to live a life of his own. All that time spent in the company of criminals and killers left him a little jaded… and with an identity crisis. He isn’t sure who he is anymore, or who he wants to be.
To give him time to think, he takes a few days off to go fishing. On his way out of town, he makes a routine stop at the bank and finds himself flirting with the girl behind the counter.
But his flirtation is cut short when criminals burst into the bank and shoot her right before his eyes.
In attempt to administer first aid, Brody reveals a tattoo on his back. A mark that will drag him and the girl into the kind of situation he was trying to get away from. But he can’t walk away because he’s the only thing capable of keeping Taylor alive and bringing down the guys who shot her—guys who are seriously dangerous.
This book can be read as a stand-alone.

This book has been sitting on my KU shelf for....months. Maybe even a year. I have a horrible habit of seeing a book that looks good, getting it on KU and then reading something else.
But I've made it my mission this January to clear out as much of my KU library as possible.
I know I've started this book in the past and put it down and it was about me, not the book. I just wasn't in the mood. I'll admit that I had a moment of "oh no" when Taylor has a TSTL moment and steps in front of a gun, getting shot. But I pushed on and kept reading.
I can't say I loved the book but it was decent. I liked the trust that was there between Brody and Taylor. The action was good throughout the book. There were some twists and turns I didn't see coming (which was nice).
But at the same time, I also wish that Brody's cover hadn't been blown so early/easily. I just felt like it was too easy.
Overall, the book was decent and a fun read.
