After leaving high school, with a hard won diploma and the title of most likely to break hearts, Alexander “Nix” Pierce has left his wild, out of control years mostly behind him. A small inheritance from his grandfather has given him the funds to open up his tattoo shop, Freefall, and he has started to pull his life together. Aside from trying to keep his best friend, Dray, from killing himself in the fight ring, and his slight obsession with a pin-up model he’s never met, Nix’s life is going smoothly . . . until Scotlyn James, the object of his obsession, walks into his shop.

Ever since a tragic accident killed her family and left her alone in the world, Scotlyn James hasn’t spoken one word. Up until now she didn’t care that she had no way of talking to people.

But when Lincoln insists she get a tattoo to cover up a scar on her side, Scotlyn meets the artist, Nix Pierce. And now she longs for her voice. Now she has found someone who will hear her.

Excerpt from Freefall

Chapter 3: Nix

The last client of the day stood for a good ten minutes admiring his new tattoo, looking at it as if the idea of a skull and crossbones on his arm was new and original. But he was pleased with the way it turned out and that’s all I cared about. Skull man walked up to the counter, pulled out his wallet, and cleared his throat loudly to get Cassie’s attention. 

She looked up from her book. In her spare moments, Cassie always had her nose in a book and most of the time it was one of those funky romance novels with the long-haired dudes with white shirts opened enough to reveal a steroid-built chest on the cover. The corny looking novels were completely inconsistent with her dyed black hair and piercings. She hopped off the stool and walked over to write up the invoice. 

The guy smiled at her as she entered some things in the computer and handed him a bill. Her mind was always so caught up with thoughts of Dray, she rarely noticed when another guy was flirting with her. “I like your glasses,” he said. He fidgeted awkwardly with his wallet, but it seemed his new tattoo was giving him the confidence he needed to talk to Cassie.

She smiled at him and pushed her glasses up on her nose. “Thanks.”

He paid for his tattoo, and I was sure he was going to ask for her number, but the question stuck in his mouth. Cassie had not given him any signs of encouragement, so the guy walked out slightly disappointed.

I finished cleaning up my tools as Cassie straightened up her jewelry display, a small side business she’d started on my counter. 

“That guy was totally into you,” I called to her.

She turned around and looked at me over the rim of her glasses. She could see much better far away than close up. “What guy?”

I rolled my eyes. As hard as I tried to discourage her from setting her sights on Dray, none of it ever seemed to work. She had it bad for him, and my self-centered friend hardly acknowledged her existence. I walked over, picked up her book, and carried it to the front counter. 

“You know, Cass, one of these shirtless pirate guys is not going to walk into this shop anytime soon.”

She rolled her eyes and grabbed the book from my hand. “Pirates were in the eighteenth century, stupid. This is a Regency era duke.” She looked pointedly at the anchor on my arm. “You’d think a guy covered with vintage sailor tattoos would know a thing or two about pirates.”

“Sorry, I didn’t pay much attention in history.” I walked over to turn the door sign around. “Or any other subject, for that matter.” I didn’t usually give romance advice but something made me speak up this time. “I don’t know a lot about the way girls work, but I do know that sometimes the best way to get a guy’s attention is to throw in a healthy dose of competition.”

Smart as she was, Cassie understood exactly what I meant. She stared at the door the guy had just walked out of. “Yeah?”

“Yeah. I’m just saying.” It was probably stupid of me to get her hopes up. Dray had a hard shell around his heart, and I didn’t know if anything or anyone could ever penetrate it.

The phone rang and Cassie picked it up. “Freefall.” She paused. “Yes, he’s here.” She held out the phone and shrugged her narrow shoulders. “Wants to talk to the owner.”

I took the phone from her. “I haven’t cleaned the coffee pot yet.” I winked flirtatiously at her hoping she’d volunteer to do it. She grunted and walked to the back office.

“Hello.”

“Hey, how’s it going? Is this Alexander Pierce, the tattoo artist?” The guy sounded slick like a car salesman. 

“Speaking,” I said hesitantly, figuring I’d just gotten stuck listening to some sales pitch.

“My name’s Hammond and I need a tattoo, and my artist told me you were the best in town.”

“Don’t know about that. What kind of tattoo are you looking to get?”

“Actually, it’s not for me personally. It’s for my girlfriend.” 

“Does she know about this tattoo or are you arranging it as a surprise?”

“Uh, no. She knows. But I need you to do the tattoo after hours. Ginny told me your shop is open during the day for regular business hours.”

“Yeah, it keeps the regret tattoos out of my shop. You have to make an appointment. That way people have time to change their mind.” I paused for a second, not completely sure what the guy was talking about. “What do you mean by after hours?”

“After the shop closes.”

It had just gotten weirder. “Sorry, man, I don’t do after hours.”

“I’ll pay you three times what you would normally charge. But the tattoo will have to be done in stages. Long sessions would make her anxious.”

“Look, I think you’ve got the wrong shop. There are a whole bunch of tattoo parlors in the area—”

“Four times,” he said quickly. “Ginny said you were the best. You know Ginny?”

“Yeah, we went to art school together for a summer. She’s a great graphic designer.” So I had her to thank for this bizarre call.

“So what do you say, bro?” I hated it when a guy called me bro when we were complete strangers. 

I thought about it for a second. Four times the usual pay would definitely make it worth staying open late. But the whole thing seemed strange. “Why can’t I draw it during shop hours?”

“I don’t want other people to be hanging around watching.”  

That answer only made the whole thing creepier. “I’m not sure. I want to see the drawing first and discuss things face to face. Can you and your girlfriend come by the shop tomorrow? We close up at six, so you can come then.”

“Sounds good. See you then.”

Cassie walked out of the back office with her sweatshirt and purse. “What was that about?”

I shook my head. “Not too sure. The guy wants to pay extra for his girlfriend’s tattoo.”

“Extra pay is good.”

“I have to do it after the shop is closed.”

Cassie’s eyes rounded behind her thick lenses. “That’s weird.”

“Yeah. Oh well, they probably won’t even show up.” I fished the keys out of my pocket and looked at her. “Are you going to the car show tonight?”

“Standing around watching guys drool over cars and pin-up models all night? Sounds invigorating.” She lifted up her book. “I think I’ll stick with my pirate.”

I smiled. “Sorry, the long hair and puffy shirt made me think pirate.” I turned off the lights and we walked out the door together.

“Should have paid more attention to your history teachers and less attention to the girls sitting in front of you.” Her car chirped as she clicked it open. She paused for a second and then looked back at me. “You know, that guy Mike, the drummer of Hell Cats, is always messaging me on Facebook. His band has a gig at the car show tonight. I think I might show up after all.”

“Good idea, Cass. See you there.”
