Direct Nailing (Brannon Boys Book 3) by Katherine McIntyre


A fantastic series coming to an end in the best and most fitting way, with a little bit of chaos and love.


From the blurb:

Rory’s not supposed to hook up with his piercing clients. He’s definitely not supposed to go after his coworker’s dad…

Rory
When an older hottie comes into the tattoo shop asking for a Prince Albert, I can’t help but flirt. I’ve been on the anti-commitment train forever, but I’m always down to hook up. Except, this guy happens to not only be straight and newly divorced but also my coworker/bestie’s…dad. So, avoid at all costs, right?

Wyatt
Getting divorced only made me realize just how few friends I have. And maybe in a pathetic attempt at socialization, I ask my piercer to grab a drink with me after my session. But he makes me laugh, and he’s so animated and full of life that I want to hang out with him more.

Then I start noticing things I shouldn’t…like how those flickers of interest feel an awful lot like attraction. Same with that desire to be around him all the time too. And then the jealousy kicks in, and before I know it, I’m falling for Rory Brannon.
However, even if he was interested in more, there’s one major problem. He’s my daughter’s friend, and that makes him off-limits…no matter how badly I want him.


Angel's review:

Rory and Wyatt's book is one that'll have you smiling, shaking your head, and may tempt you into getting a tattoo AND a piercing. At least I know I'm tempted..

If you've read the other books in this series, (Brannon Boys), then you'll know the chaos that these characters often get up to when they are all together. And some chaos definitely ensued in the finale of this lovely series.

Wyatt is a divorced man, who's also a dad, and once believed to be straight. After ignoring things he wanted to do for years he's finally doing the tasks on his list, first one being, getting a piercing. That's where he meets our whirlwind of bubbly, flirty, chaos, who is very sweet and good at his job...

Rory has always avoided relationships, he hasn't ever been interested in more than a fling, he's good at his job and is passionate about it. So why is it that the one man he actually grows attached to is his co-worker's dad?? And why can't he seem to stay away from the older man?

Oh sweet, sweet, Rory. He thought that his relationship with Wyatt wouldn't mean anything other than a bit of fun, but he eventually realized that it became so much more than that. Which of course was cause for some family meetings, (and interventions.) One of my favorite aspects of the Brannon Boys series is how open, accepting, and caring everyone is. It's really beautiful to read about especially with how the world currently is.

Even when Harper eventually found out about Rory and her dad's relationship, while she was upset at first, she never got hostile or cruel. She accepted the fact that her dad and Rory were happy together and then was happy for them. I loved how low-angst this series was.

While I am sad to see this come to an end, I am SO excited for Alchemy Ink. I mean, come on, a whole series featuring characters who work in a tattoo & piercing shop?!? Say less, Kat, sign me up!
