Corbin James has a reputation for two things: Being one of the best tattoo artists around and being a total bastard. Both reputations are well-deserved and he’s proud of both. In fact, he does everything he can to cultivate both titles. They've both served him quiet well over the years. Which is why he has a strict set of rules he lives by.

So, when optimistic art student Avery Scott walks into his shop and declares herself to be his new apprentice, he’s more than a little confused. And annoyed. But despite her small stature and bubbly personality, she won’t take no for an answer no matter how firmly Corbin refuses. For reasons he can’t understand, he offers her a deal. If she can handle everything he throws at her for the next 90 days, he’ll keep her as his apprentice and teach her everything he knows about the art of tattooing.

But as days turn to weeks, Corbin starts to wonder if he made a mistake. He didn’t anticipate how quickly he’d grow used to having Avery around or the way he can’t stop looking at her. If he’s not careful, he’ll end up breaking all the rules for his new apprentice.
