He left a mark I never asked for.
Now he wants to finish the piece.
Amina Westbrook didn't choose motherhood. But when her younger sister dropped a baby and disappeared, Amina stepped up, raised that little girl as her own, and never looked back.
Seven years later, the past comes tatted, cocky, and fine as hell-standing in the grocery store with the same hypnotic eyes her daughter sees in the mirror.
Santiago Vega.
Zuri's father.
The man who left before he ever knew she existed.
Now he wants in.
He wants time. Forgiveness. A chance to be a father.
And every time he shows up with that deep voice and soft smirk, Amina hates how badly she wants to let him.
Santiago isn't just showing up for Zuri-he's showing up for her. Fixing things she didn't ask him to fix. Dropping money in her hand like it's his right. Touching her like he already knows how she breaks.
Amina's been holding everything together for so long, she doesn't know how to let go. Doesn't know how to want someone who actually stays.
But Santiago stays.
Through the attitude. The boundaries. The sparks that keep catching fire.
And when he finally gets his hands on her?
There's nothing soft about it.
Now she's spiraling in his sheets, clashing with him in front of her family, and falling harder than she ever meant to.
Because Santiago doesn't just want to play daddy.
He wants the whole damn family.
And this time, he's not leaving until he has them.
Ink Don't Lie is a gritty, emotionally charged, standalone romance about second chances, found family, and the kind of love that refuses to walk away.
