Blurb
When I was a boy, I met a girl.
She didn’t know it then, but…
She changed me.Now…..I am a man.
A man who is broken by the stories of the women who come to me.
They are my birds with broken wings.
I help them heal, help them to make them strong, so they can fly free.
Lark changed me. Loved Me. Made Me Strong.
With her, I am free.I write…
To the girl of the past.
To the girl of my present.
And, the girl of my future.Dear Dish….
**Although Nico is considered part of The Leaves Series, it can be read as a stand alone**

We sat there trying to catch our breath, her small giggle echoing against the foothills when I heard, “You two mind keeping it down now? Son, you know I’m proud you’re a man who can please your woman, but I also have a wife – your mother – who is running around the place turning on every radio and television to full blast because she can’t find her damn headphones,” I heard him chuckle as he walked away, mocking me, “Fuckkkkk,” and laughing his ass off.
My Review of Nico by J.B. Hartnett
Oh effin em gee! This leaves series just keeps getting better and better.
Nico first came through in Inky’s story where he helped her by tattooing her past and pain away. It turns out he still does that. He helps women try and heal their pain by tattoo’s. He first meets “dish” who’s name is really Lark when he was 7 and she was 5….
They meet again when Nico is 40, and Lark is 38. They don’t remember each other from that long ago. From beyond where he held her hand the entire night and gave her his stuffed animal “georgie” – a stuffed animal that’s supposed to help keep the nightmares at bay.
Nico is a reformed man-whore who’s also so effin alpha! When him and Lark start dating the take it slow and build there relationship to be indestructible, but there’s always that one person who can try and destruct your life. Will they persevere through their journey? Why, yes you have to read the story to see what happens 🙂
I love the pace of Nico and the entire storyline. Like I said before, the Leaves series just keeps getting better and better. Definitely a must read.
