Skin Deep #4
Skin Tight
Who would have thought that she’d ever have to thank her brother (and the drunken ogre who didn’t know when to sit down and shut up, of course) for literally dropping her into the arms of the man of her dreams?
Not Leah, that’s for sure. But now she’s had to thank Calland a thousand times over for taking her and Chloe with him to the UFC fight that landed her in the arms (and bed) of the tall, tattooed, sexy-as-sin, Ian.
Ever since, Leah and Ian have been inseparable; they’re happy and in love. But there’s someone who’s determined to see that happiness end.
Victoria has been a pain in Ian’s ass all his life, though a harmless one. Family “friends” since childhood, he’s laughed off her random visits and claims of undying love. Now with Leah in the picture, Victoria has upped the ante and it’s no longer a laughing matter.
Victoria may claim to be crazy in love (or just plain crazy), but Ian and Leah, with all the usual suspects at their backs to offer love and support…and lots of laughs along the way… make it known that they’re in it for the long haul and Victoria can’t change that.
But Victoria is used to getting what she wants…and what she wants is Ian.
And she’s made it clear that she’ll do whatever it takes to have him…
*Recommended for readers 18+ due to HOT sexual encounters, adult situations, and language. **This is book four of the Skin Deep Series; recommended to read after Skin Deep, book one of the series, Under My Skin, book two of the series, and Skin to Skin, book three of the series.

Once again J.M. Stone has done it again. This book captivates you in the stories of the whole gang, even though this book is Leah and Ian's story. I was so very privileged to receive an ARC copy of this book and was over the moon about it. One of the main things I love about this authors writing is that it's so easy going it's like your talking to a friend, sharing stories! But also, even though each book is a different characters stories you still very much hear about the other characters you have grown to love and get almost just as much of them as everyone else. I can't say enough about recommending this series to people, it is a must read!!

Skin Tight was another fab instalment - good story and full of humour.
If I had any grumbles, it would just be that I really didn't get a feel for Ian at all.
Looking forward to the final book - Calland's story

I was lucky to receive an ARC of this book and let me say that Stone does not disappoint. This fourth book is Leah and Ian's story and it's a wild and crazy one. It includes all our favorite Skin Tight characters (including the furry ones) and introduces one not so favorite character.
Ian and Leah have an amazing relationship in this book. They love each other and even though havoc is reeked they never waiver from that love. I've read so many books with so much unnecessary drama thrown in that it drives me crazy and this book... this book is perfectly balanced.
As with all of J.M. Stone's books the secondary characters play just as big a role as the main characters. You want to know what's going on with them and she delivers. FYI: Nanny... OMG if you only read this book for the Nanny parts it would totally be worth it. I found myself LMAO anytime Nanny was around. I sooooo want to be her when I grow up. :)
I can't wait till May 25, 2015 so everybody else can read this fourth installment of the Skin Tight series. Enjoy!!!

This whole series is Hot, Sexy and Funny as hell! From the first book in this series, J.M. Stone gives you great characters who you love and see throughout all the books. This is Leah and Ian's story. Leah is a teacher and Ian is a construction worker who comes from a very wealthy family. His family doesn't like Leah, they want him to be with their rich neighbor, Victoria. Ian is madly in love with Leah. He loves all her family and extended family. They truly have a great relationship, but Victoria is delusional and thinks Ian is in love with her and will stop at nothing to have Ian.
So glad we are getting more in this series, I really do love the series and all the characters. Looking forward to Calland's book

I was lucky enough to receive a ARC of this book and it didn't disappoint. You laugh and you cry in this book, I can't put it down, I had to find out what happened in the end.I love the characters in this series especially Nanny and her crazy antics through the book, I love this series and I can't wait for Calland book to come out.

I LOVE this series and this book was no exception. I can't wait until the next book comes out. I am ready for Calland to be tamed!!! This book was full of lust, love, laughs and suspense.
Skin Tight is about Leah, an elementary Kindergarten teacher, and Ian, a construction company owner that comes from wealth. These two have explosive chemistry and the sex scenes are HOT, HOT, HOT!!!! From the beginning of the book, you can feel the love between these two and they stand strong together whatever comes their way. It is great to see two strong characters together.
The storyline of this book was great and as always, the characters were fabulous. I have really grown attached to these characters throughout the series. Even though this book could technically be read as a standalone, I would recommend reading the others in the series first so you can truly understand everything that is happening in this book.

It had been a while since i read these books so it tool me a bit to get up to speed with the characters again!
This book was set a bit different to other books, it wasnt about the chase, the chase had already been done this story was about a young couple who were in love and devoted to one another. Ian had a past and sadly that past was hanging around much to there dismay. It was clear that the girl was delusional and needed help. Something should have been done much sooner but then again peoples hands are tied until a situation escalates and sometimes when that escalates its too late!
One thing I hope that gets sorted in the next book is what happens to the other tattoo artist (cant remember his name) who chloe and Leah were worried about. It was clear he had a secret but this was never resolved in this book and left you with questions.

I really loved this book and we got to see the whole gang like always and I loved Ian and Leah. We saw how they met and how their romance started in the previous book from this series and in this book, we got to see the progression of their relationship and they were so sweet together and so in love. They talked to each other, goofed around and truly loved each other and it was nice to see. The real problem they had was Victoria, Ians family friend who was a total psycho and tried so hard to break hem up but their love was too strong to be messed with. I love their group of friends and family they love each other and it was great to read about them. Cannot wait for the next book, Calland!!!!

I received an ARC of this book, it is the 4th book in the Skin Deep series and it does not disappoint. Although this book is about a different set of characters, in my opinion the first 3 books should be read prior to this one because it is a continuation and intertwines with the whole Skin Deep series J.M. Stone has a wonderful writing style that makes you feel like you are a part of the story. It's funny, sexy, with just enough angst which make a perfect balance of a great book. You'll be laughing out loud at parts and just fall in love with these characters. I could go on and on about this but I'll just say this is a MUST READ!

Oh my goodness. I have never laughed so hard at a book death in my life like I did in this one. Victoria was NUTS! I dunno how Ian let that shit fly for so long, but shit that girl needed committing. But her death was HILARIOUS. Anyways, Leah got her happy ending with the tall delicious Ian. MMm...I love the men in these books. They are so hot and sexy. Again we had the hilarious gang that is the family, friends and can't forget dogs. Now Calland is up next. I hope we get a T.J book too and end the series there. But holy shit Victoria, girl I'm still laughing my ass off at your dumb ass.

This series keeps getting better. Ian and Leah are my favorite of the couples and I was really happy to have them together through the hole book instead of having to wait until half way through the book to them as a couple and watched them stay strong with all the drama while still making me laugh. I wish there were more series like this out there. I can not wait for the next book and ill be looking forward to more books from J.M. Stone
May 28, 2015
J.M. Stone you wonderful woman you!!! I loved it! The story was great. Dealing with in-laws and a crazy stalker, great story line. Yes, some of the characters are wild, Nanny is a nutty one but I really enjoy that you can relate with friends and family like Allie or having an over the top brother like Calland.
Thanks again and let the waiting game begin

loved this book! Skin Tight was a slight departure from the other books in the series, because we don't see the beginning of Leah and Ian's relationship (it was in skin to skin) but that doesn't make them any less hot or awesome.
the usual gang is up to no good, or up to hilarity, as usual.
all I have to say is watch out for crazy bitches in this one!

Great story
I love this series! All the characters are great. It's a well written story with some fun in between. Happy to see Leah all grown up and the returning characters moving on in life as well. Glad Callahand gets a book but I'm curious about TJ. Can't wait to read more!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As always, funny, HOT, with just enough drama to keep it edgy. The Guys of Skin Deep have their hands full with the women in their lives, and it makes for a funny love story. Love this series, hate for it to end after Callands story. Does anyone else want T.J.'s story?
May 31, 2015
I love this series....
I love the fact that this picked up after the last book, we didn't have to re-read Ian and Leah's beginning. The storyline rocks and it was great to see where the other Skin Deep characters are. Looking forward to Calland and T.J.'s stories.

Okay the book of five but I'm a little bit disappointed about what goes on with EN and Victoria and just how everything is spun there I didn't expect it and it almost felt like it was a little rushed at one part but against Orlando's great characters everything role-plays within itself I would've liked to know a little bit more about TJ it kinda left you hanging with him he just shows up and it feels like there's something missing with him I hope we get to learn more about D-j-t in Callands book
