Inkward you say… tell me more.

So, like I always say…

The standard disclaimer: If you haven’t read Twilight – WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU??? If you haven’t finished the series then skip this chatter because we might spoil something for you and we definitely don’t want to do that.

We are going to shake up the format a little this week, Guest Designer Jacquie is joining me this week to add her thoughts on this weeks recommendation!

The Story:

This week’s recommendation is Clipped Wings and Inked Armor by Hunterhunting. I don’t remember how I happened upon this story but the instant I read the story summary I was intrigued. She says:

Haunted by her past Bella is broken and alone. Starting over, can she let go of the guilt that consumes her when she meets a beautiful tattoo artist or will his own personal demons destroy them first?

Jen’s Thoughts:

I started reading and Oh My Edward. She had me at Black Hole Sun.

The first chapter had me captivated. Edward is brash. He has some of the best inner monologues I’ve read since Midnight Desire – I love being in Edward’s head. He’s pierced and inked. What more do you need?

Bella is wrecked. I don’t know how else to describe her. She is flat broken. But she’s also freaking awesome. She has an inner snark that is unexpected and hilarious at times. A definite run for Inkward’s money. It’s difficult to say more an not ruin plot surprises, but I love this Bella.

This is one of the most thought out and well written fan-fics I’ve read in a while. It’s also very well paced, the interactions between Bella and Edward are quite believable… very funny at times and Kleenex worthy the next. The supporting cast have a well defined and well written role in the story. And so far the plot is stuck together like fingers and Crazy glue.

It’s been a long time since I’ve read a story that leaves me wanting more so bad at the end of an update that I’ll go back and re-read the entire story chapter but so far every update I’ve done it. HH is only at chapter 11 but the updates are frequent (think by-weekly) and this one is a definite must read.

ohheavensIaminlovewithtatEdwardandIwanthimtoberealsobad! HunterHunting you Rock!!

Oh and Jen don’t forget he Drinks coffee and loves cupcakes….Awwww I melt. Ok no more spoilers.

I love how we see inside Edwards head immediately, I never got that in Twilight! Fan Fiction rules my world and this story jumps to the top of my faves FAST! Can you believe this is her FIRST FanFic story??

She keeps some essential canon in the story in the supporting and main characters, love that, and they are so easy to love! The twists and turns are unexpected and flow so easily together to make this story heartwarming and believable.

Jen again…

How could I forgotten about the cupcakes… maybe I’ll go make some right now.

Summing it up…

Inkward might be the hottest thing since, well… Edward AND he loves cupcakes. This is one story you should definitely try on for size. And if our raving doesn’t get you… see that leather clad pic of Rob up there… throw some tats and steel on him and he is Inkward.
