4 I Want More! stars

This is a prequel novella to Helena Hunting’s Clipped Wings series. It’s an introduction to the two main characters, Tenley and Hayden, with a chapter in each of their POVs. And after that quick glimpse, I am already halfway in love with them both, and loving the set up of their relationship.

Tenley has recently moved to Chicago, she is all alone with hints of trauma in her recent past, and one of the only joys in her life is watching the sexy tattooist who works across the street. Hayden is tattooed, pierced and sexy as all hell. Even from the small amount that we see of him, it’s clear that he hasn’t had a great past, but he has hidden depths and seems to be an absolute sweeteheart. He’s just as entranced with Tenley as she is with him, and when she takes a job in his aunt’s bookstore across the street (which also happens to be underneath her new apartment and across the street from his), he makes it his mission to seek out the shy girl and get to know her better.

All of a sudden, my control, self-imposed exile didn’t seem all that appealing.
For the first time in years, I wanted…something. Anything. As long as it was real.

I really loved this little novella! In such a short read, I was captivated by Helena Hunting’s writing style, it flows beautifully and I was quickly and easily sucked in. I’ve heard that it’s not necessary to read this one first, but it certainly did a great job at setting the stage and I can’t wait to dive straight into Clipped Wings.

4 stars.
