At Your Most Beautiful, Harper Bliss [books to get back into reading .TXT] 📗

took off her top. Her tattoo would be on the other side of her body that said Life is for living.

Maya had once joked to Quinn that if she ever found herself somewhere without a book and needed distraction, she could always read Quinn’s skin. She watched as the artist disinfected Quinn’s side and prepared her equipment. Before she started, she studied the note with the text Quinn had given her earlier.

“Same font as the one on the other side?” the artist asked casually, as though Quinn was a piece of paper she was about to write on.

Quinn confirmed and the tattoo artist got to work.

Maya tried not to look at Quinn’s face. If she really had doubts about getting a tattoo, she wouldn’t be here. She would have stalled or simply said no. But she wanted it in the same reckless but unmistakable way she’d wanted Quinn, over eleven years ago and again a year ago. What scared Maya most was the prospect of physical pain. Having a needle jabbed repeatedly into your skin wasn’t her idea of a fun afternoon.

“It’s half an hour of pain in return for a lifetime of feeling connected to me,” Quinn had said, with that silver tongue of hers.

Nerves coiling into a tight knot in her stomach, Maya watched Quinn get tattooed. The text wasn’t long and it wasn’t part of an elaborate artwork—Quinn saved that for her day job—so it was fairly straightforward and, indeed, didn’t take much longer than half an hour.

“Do you want to take a look?” the tattoo artist asked Maya.

Maya nodded and walked to Quinn’s other side.

It wasn’t pretty—yet—but the words of Quinn’s new tattoo were clear as day: Some nights are unforgettable.

When Maya’s eyes fell on it, all her nerves melted like snow under the sun. She straightened her back, squared her shoulders, and said, “I’m ready for mine.”

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoyed Maya and Quinn’s story.

A Note from Harper

What if it was almost as easy, and definitely cheaper, to buy ebooks directly from me?

When you buy ebooks directly from me, less of your money goes into the pockets of the big retailer platforms (and I can give you a nice discount!)

For the easy part: I use a book delivery service called BookFunnel that will send the book to your reading device of choice in a couple of steps. (You might have already used it because I also use it to deliver the free books you get when you sign up for my newsletter.)

BookFunnel also has an app for your phone or tablet where you’ll be able to find all the books you’ve bought, in case you need to change devices, so your ebooks will always be accessible.

As for the cheaper part, I’m offering a 15% discount on any books you buy direct from me. Just put in the promo code DIRECTBLISS at check-out and it will be applied to all your purchases.

Thank you,

Harper xo
