  Inked Hearts Series by Crystal Kaswell I haven't been able to stop thinking about this book.  Which is only I wanted to include it in this series, so imagine my surprise when I went to grab the info from Goodreads. I only gave it two stars but didn't actually write a review.  I remember that it was angsty, a mutual reviewer mentioned it was like a soap opera.  I agree with that assessment.  I still have plans to read the other books in this series. There are seven other books and I remember being interested in a few other characters, so I will dive back in.  Should I re-read this one? This series is available on Kindle Unlimited .
