Gruff Touch (Geek Ink #4)

Like I said before....here we are, checking out (aka binge-reading) the Geek Ink series (by R. Cayden). The fourth book is titled "Gruff Touch."

["Sometimes, love shines where you least expect it.

There are a million reasons I shouldn’t crush on growly, grumpy Caesar Marin.
For starters, the man is probably twice my age.
He’s a famous tattoo artist, a biker with a pit bull, and he’s made it clear he doesn’t want anything to do with my geeky butt.

He’s also apparently my father’s old friend.

Not that I ever met my father. I only learned his name this year, and as soon as I tracked him down, I discovered that he had already passed.
And with Mom gone now, too, that leaves Caesar as my only hope for learning more about the man.
Caesar with the sexy growl, silver hair, and thick neck.
Caesar who pushes me away even as his eyes beg me to stay.

He’s the last man I should fall for, yet something deep inside insists that Caesar should be mine.

If I can only shine bright enough to warm his grumpy heart…"]

I was a little skeptical on this one (because, to be honest, age-gap tropes creep me out a bit--no offense to anyone, they're just generally  not my cup of tea--especially the "my father's old friend" reminded me of when Monica dated Richard and gah (in the not good way)). But then the rest of the blurb says grumpy/sunshine and well, I do love that trope (and I do hate leaving things unfinished)...

And honestly, it was sooooo fuuuucking cuuuuute! They fit together like two puzzle pieces and it was so damn adorable and they just got each other and Drew could interpret Caesar's grunts and FUCK. I can't. It was too much. I damn near sobbed during the part where they were like will-they-won't-they, but its okay.   ((spoiler alert, if you want to know if they do it on Caesar's bike at all, the answer is yes))
