Ink or Swim (A Dakota Maddison Tattoo Shop Mystery Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 17 ratings

Closing her tattoo shop in the city to reopen it in a small town was just the change Dakota Maddison needed. Longing for a quieter life, she traded her sixth-floor apartment for a house with a porch and view of the beach.

While she was busy putting finishing touches on her shop for the grand opening, local law enforcement knocked on her door. Dakota expected a friendly welcome to the neighborhood but was instead met with a warning to not leave town.

A competitive swimmer’s body had been found floating in the pool at the recreation center and Dakota was the prime suspect in the murder.

Already overwhelmed with needing to organize her home and shop, welcome her guest artists, and entertain her best friend, Declan, and his cat, Diesel, her desire for a calmer lifestyle was all but forgotten when she was forced to add sleuthing to the list. Every new piece of evidence pointed directly to her, and the town sheriff and many residents were determined to see her found guilty.

Will Dakota be able to find a way to clear her name, maintain her freedom, and keep her business afloat?

    💖 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
    📚 Genre: Cozy mystery

    💕 Positives:
    * I think this has the most unique setting to date: a tattoo shop! 

    * Loved Diesel. Who wouldn't love a Sphynx cat that wears a motorcycle helmet and vest. 

    * The motorcycle club was a heartwarming group of people. Reminded me of my car club days. 

    * Loved the scene with Declan and Dakota with everything set up for her.  🥰

    🚫 Negatives: 
    * None. 

    ⚡Content Warning: None. 

    🌟 Overall, I really enjoyed this book! The setting was what drew me in since it's so unique in the cozy mystery genre, a tattoo shop. While I don't have any tattoos, I do appreciate the artistry and talent behind them.  

    I really enjoyed the cast of characters in the motorcycle club. It reminded me of my car club days in high school and college. The members there, I consider family (besides the one I married, lol). So it was heartwarming at just the right time in the story. 

    Perfect escape from everyday life.  The only bummer is that I have to wait until December for the next one! I definitely recommend this book for cozy mystery fans.
