Two chance encounters. One great love.

While everyone around Carmello Caldo found love, he was busy losing himself in pleasure and pain. But when his cousin Lily wants to help him find true love, he doesn’t hesitate to accept her offer.

Quickly their fake relationship goes from slow-burn to scorching hot from the very first touch. But can they work through their troubled pasts and embrace a fairy tale future?

5 star Review Singe (Men of Inked: Heatwave #8) by Chelle Bliss After reading the previous books in this series and knowing everything that Carmello (Mello) Caldo has been through I couldn’t wait to see what Chelle Bliss had in store for this broken, troubled man. I knew that the woman who would bring him back to life would need to be special and that is exactly what Arlo King is. My heart broke for everything that had happened to Mello and the pain, guilt and sadness that surrounds him. I fell hard and fast for this swoon worthy, caring, protective and passionate man. It has taken him years, but he is finally ready to move on. Arlo is a woman haunted by her past and she has her own baggage to contend with. Mello’s cousin Lily begs him to stop his playboy ways and wants to help him find love. Since Mello is sick of the life he has been leading, he accepts her help. He is surprised when Arlo re enters his life. When they first met there was an instant connection and sparks flew but since both are wary of relationships nothing developed at the time. This time their friendship changes to a “fake” relationship which quickly morphs into a slow burn, passionate love. I loved Mello and Arlo, both separately and together and in my opinion Arlo was perfect for him. There is humour, steam, tears, love and interference by the wonderful Gallo clan. This book is all about second chances, love and family. One click this little gem, you won’t be disappointed.

Chelle Bliss is back with a blistering slow-burn romance. That captured me from the very first page. Thanks in part to the wonderful Caldo/Gallo clan who are as crazy and loving as ever. But also due to Carmello (Mello) and Arlo, who are electrifying together, even though for 90% of the story Mello is kept well out of Arlo's pants. Yet, that is what gives this story so much heart. Along with Mello's cousins, and twin brother Rocco and new sister Rebel who like to give Mello a hard time, but love and support him nonetheless, and are on hand to show Arlo what friendship and family is all about. And that's what makes this story such a joy to read, and I can't wait for book nine to be released. Would definitely recommend.

This is low drama, super sweet with a really delightful story of two people falling in love. Carmello is finally ready to move on with his life and look for a real connection with a solid foundation. He’s been through something terrible and it’s taken a long time to find his feet again. Arlo is sass and sweetness all wrapped up in the perfect package. She’s had demons of her own to overcome and together they are the perfect match. Their attraction is instant but plays out over a little time. It’s not rushed and feels like the timing is just perfect.
