Summary from Goodreads

A biker. A tattoo artist. A love to last a lifetime.

Maddox Cross has always had to be tough. When his father went to jail for murder, the teenager took care of his sister and mother. Now on his own and working security at a night club, Maddox wants to become a tattoo artist-a dream that comes closer to reality when he falls for the hottest, most tatted woman he's ever seen. She's wild and beautiful, and Maddox will do anything to be with her.

Bee Malone came to town to open up her new tattoo parlor, Masquerade. Since being kidnapped as a young girl, Bee has had trouble getting close to anyone. But when she meets Maddox, she sees that under his hard biker's body is the sensitive soul of an artist. What starts out as a sizzling one-night stand soon becomes so much more.

Bee wants Maddox to join her tattoo business, but letting him into her life means revealing all her most intimate secrets. And as the past begins to intertwine with her present, Bee fears their love may not be as permanent as their ink . . . 

My Review

4/5

First I just want to say that I love all of Nyrae Dawn's books. That woman can write a good story.

In Facade (Book 2) we get a glimpse of Maddox and I have to say I didn't like him a lot of the time but he redeemed himself somewhat and by the end I couldn't wait to read his story.

I love Bee as a heroine. She was so kickass and took no crap, which I was so happy about. 

Their relationship was so nice and they were both exactly what the other needed.

The plot was so good and I wasn't able to put the book down until I finished. Warning: This is a common occurrence with all of her books.

I love this series because Ms Dawn shows how two slightly damaged people can fit together to create a whole. She gives them sad back-stories but they always fight to find their happy endings and I think we can all learn a lesson from this.

I don't know what else to say other than READ IT, you will not regret it. I look forward to reading more of her books in the future.
