The surprises keep coming. No matter how well prepared he thinks he is, keeping hold of the reins is getting harder and harder.

Trinket has come to terms with his affair. Stepping out on boyfriend Zee has become a habit, and he's gotten over the hump of his initial hesitation. With Zee doubling down on their commitment to each other, apparently oblivious to Trinket's bad behavior, Trinket feels more in control and doesn't hesitate to raise the stakes.

When Zee goes out of town for work, Trinket leaps at the chance to spend a month doing nothing but experimenting with side piece Mini. Far from just his tattoo artist, Mini has grown to almost a confidant. Trinket feels safe with him. Maybe safer than he does with Zee.

However, Mini has his secrets, and an agenda of his own. Trinket finds it difficult to tear himself away from Mini's influence. When Mini ups the ante, and shows Trinket just what it means to be dominated in bed, Trinket has to make his mind up to sink or swim. The waters are getting murkier and murkier, and the lines between drowning and desire have never been more ambiguous.

A Stanza on Skin is the 30k word follow-up to A Guilty Canvas, and the fourth book in the Taste of Ink series. It contains cheaty, kinky sex, and potential triggers. It does not end with a HEA/HFN but leads directly into part five.
