Description:
Tempting, inked and highly addictive. Alex is all that and
more…
I’ve made a lot of mistakes – ones I’m not proud of, and definitely ones
that have left their marks both mentally and physically.
Things got lonely; I got lost in my own fucked up mind and in the end it left
me fucked out of my mind and unable to fight – or at least win. That life’s over for me and I’ve moved
on.
Six months into tattooing at Blue’s and already I’m the most wanted and
sought out tattooist. My biggest clientele consists of women.
They come into the shop, end up in my bed and we both come out happy.
It’s been my release since I’ve stopped fighting. It’s become part of the “new” me.
But when Tripp reappears in my life, I can’t deny the fact that I would do
anything for that girl.
So when she asks me to move in with her and her ‘boyfriend’ – our other
childhood friend – I never expected for things to get so fucked up and twisted that I would find myself
only more attracted to her by each passing second or wanting to protect her from everything that isn’t
me.
I have worked so hard over the years to suppress my feelings for her but
when I find out that her and Lucas have been having an open relationship, I have the strong urge to rip
his heart straight from his chest – to destroy the very thing that keeps him breathing.
What I didn’t expect was for Lucas to ask what he did. For him to ask me
to do the one thing I have secretly longed for since I was old enough to know what the need was. The
second thing I never expected was the look of need that I saw in Tripp’s eyes when he asked.
One night of free passion could change our lives
forever.
I never said that was a good thing either…
Victoria Ashley has created another sexy, steamy, compelling and emotional story. This is a story about Alex Carter and Trip Daniels and their undying friendship. They will drop anything at the drop of a hat for each and now that friendship line becomes blurred.
"I hear the door close before I feel his body pressed against mine. He's so close, yet not close enough. I Want him to touch me. I crave it. Just once."
Something For The Pain is book 2 in the Pain series and holy hell this book does not disappoint. If you love Memphis' story then hold on to your shirts because Alex's' story will blow you away. Alex and Tripp have been friends since they were 8, her was her first kiss. So cute right? Well that was the moment where things started to get fuzzy. She has always been in love with Alex but since their friendship meant so much to her she never acted on it. Instead she became the one that he confided in. For two people who are just friends, you can tell there is a TON of sexual tension, flirting galore and sexy dirty talk. When an opportunity is brought to light and tests their true feelings everything is put on the line, their friendship and their heart. I LOVE IT!
"I cover my mouth as a loud gasp escapes, sucking the air straight out of my lungs. I try to turn away so I can leave, but my body seems to be frozen in place as Alex stalks toward me with pure fire in his gray eyes. Stopping in front of me, he grips the back of my head and before I can even register what is happening, he crushes his lips to mine, causing me to almost fall over."
Missing Memphis and Lyric? Don't worry, their in the mix too.

Excerpt:
I’m in my room getting ready when I hear the shower turn on. The party starts
in about fifteen minutes so Alex must be getting ready too.
Just out of curiosity, I walk over to the bathroom door and turn the
handle. It moves, but I don’t push it open. It’s unlocked. That thought excites me, making me realize that
he didn’t care enough to lock it, and knowing that I could walk in at any time and see him naked elevates
my core temp a little. I just find that to be so damn hot.
That’s an open invitation… right?
I release the handle and suck in a small breath when I hear him moan
out, followed by what sounds like his hand slapping against the shower wall.
Oh. My. God. That is the sexiest sound I have ever heard. That low, deep
growl is all it takes to get me wet.
Collecting myself, I back away from the door and take a deep breath. My
legs feel shaky. “Don’t do this right now, Tripp. Dammit, don’t do this.” Shaking it off, I go back to stand
in front of the mirror one last time, questioning the way I look in my newest little dress.
Dresses are my thing. It doesn’t matter how many I own, I can never
have enough. Plus, I love the way Alex looks at me every time he sees me in a new dress. His wandering
eyes always cause my heart to flutter out of my chest. I just hope this little red dress is enough to get his
attention.
I’m in the middle of turning around to check out my ass, when I hear the
bathroom door open, followed by a whistle.
Please be naked…. What am I saying? Don’t be
naked.
Cautiously, I turn my head toward the bathroom door, with my eyes
squinted, to see Alex standing there in a towel. He looks so damn sexy that I feel as if all the air has been
sucked from my lungs. My chest aches as I stare him up and down, watching as the water drips from his
beautiful, tattooed body.
He checks me out with a smirk before whistling again. “Damn,
Firecracker. That dress was made just for you.” He places his hand over the bulge in his towel and bites
his bottom lip. “You look beautiful. Stop second-guessing yourself. I’ll see you downstairs in
five.”
He turns around, pulling the towel away right before he closes the door
behind him. My mouth drops open from the glimpse of his ass that I am left with. It’s so firm and perfect
that all I can think about is biting it… and the way it flexed when he walked. Is it normal for an ass to
look that good?
“I hate you sometimes,” I whisper.
“Who do you hate sometimes?”
I shake my head and look at my doorway to see Lucas standing there,
dressed in a black shirt and a pair of gray shorts. He raises his eyebrows, waiting for my
response.
“No one.” I walk over to him and plaster on my best smile, trying to
pretend that I’m not still thinking about those sounds I heard coming from the shower. “I was talking to
myself. Just second-guessing my outfit, I guess.”
Wrapping his arms around me, he kisses my shoulder and brushes my
hair behind my ear. “Well, I would have loved to see you in a pair of short shorts and a tank top tonight,
but this dress works too.”
I roll my eyes before pulling away from him and bumping him out of the
way with my hip. “I didn’t feel like wearing shorts, Lucas. This dress makes me feel good. If I feel good,
then I have a good time and enjoy myself. That’s all I want tonight.”
“Me too, baby,” he responds. “We’re going to have a lot of fun. Trust
me.”
