The Program #1
Canvas, SUNSHINE & CHAOS
4 inked men. 1 is very, very bad.
He made me an offer. One I accepted.
His friends made me another. One I shouldn’t. I really, really shouldn’t.
But I’m not that girl anymore. The one I left behind, the one who does what’s expected, the one who has no choice. The one with secrets. I ran away from that life, and hope it never finds me. I can choose to do what I want, with who I want.
Now. Finally.
I've heard the talk, the whispers, and all of the innuendos. I know what they do. All of them. Together.
I accepted his offer. He did things to me, he awakened things inside of me. He made me into something I never, ever thought I'd be.
He’s the filthiest man I know, but he worships me with his lust. How can I say no?
I was going to stay away from her. Then they made me claim her. If I didn't, then they all would. Together. At the same time.
She's mine.
I've got a past, secrets of my own. I'm not a man who does commitment, my life doesn't allow it. But then she appeared out of nowhere.
She's a mystery, a beautiful, innocent enigma, one I want to mark. Literally. The problem is, I'm not sure I'll be able to stop.
*RH, a bit of a RomCom, a bit of suspense, it's a bit dark, and, yeah, maybe a hint twisted. The boys have got it all.*

About the author
N.M. Catalano
24 books500 followers"I am just a woman, like many of you, who has lived through beauty and ugliness, happiness, (sometimes extreme), and sadness, (sometimes heart wrenching), and have grown to love life and myself even more. I write because I love the characters, I am madly and hopelessly in love with them and want to share them with you. Life is beautiful and is meant to be enjoyed day by day, sometimes you have to pick out the good stuff with a magnifying glass like a needle in a haystack, but enjoyed none the less. The stories that I put on paper, I think, help us to find that enjoyment a little bit more."

I needed a little smut and a little fun and Canvas definitely delivered. The premise wasn't anything new. Four men who works at a tattoo shop and have been to war together share everything with one another. Including women.
These men are fabulous. So much character to each of them. This story focuses on Rocco aka Rock and the woman , Summer who works next door at her coffee shop.
Damn I really enjoyed Rock's determination and also how flustered he got around the guys when Summer was mentioned. She is more than just sex.
Summer is strong and has secrets but doesn't let anyone get close to her. That's until Rock comes around. Their chemistry is hot like lava. Phew!!!!! Call the fire squad.
Rock's not all about sex. His care and attention for Summer knows no bounds. The same can be said about his friends.
The other guys Bull, Gringo and Snake are intriguing and also so much fun. Their friendship is their top priority. When they're having fun with women all bets are off and it's all about pleasure.
Snake definitely captured my attention and his interactions with Summer and Rock were amazing and freaking hot. I hope his story is next cause I need more of Snake and his background. I got my need for smut satisfied and at the same time I also got a great love story.

Sexy and exciting. NM Catalano has written another one to keep you interested, excited and amused for hours. And the sex.. Whew, I am still trying to cool myself down.
I loved all the characters they are sexy, lovable, and well developed. The plot is great and well executed, and the writing is superb. Yes, the book is off the charts blow your mind HOT. But it's also so much more than that. I laughed, cried, and felt the intense love that is so skillfully described. The characters have a lot of depth and the story suck you in. Summer and Rock's story is one you don't want to miss out on.
I cannot wait to see what is in store for Snake, Bull, and Gringo..
Amazing book...hot content...addicting...must read.

Four guys, one girl...well, not exactly what you think, but these guy's mamas sure taught them how to share....and share they do!
She's The Club, he's The Program...
She's hiding, he's waiting...
She's alone, he's bound to his 'brothers'...
She craves freedom, he's determined to give it to her, so he can claim her.
This story has it all, a little comedy with witty banter and a cast of side characters that will have you shaking your head. Suspense, surrounding our MCs as we anticipate uncovering the secrets they hide. And of course, romance, with a dirty, kinky twist.
I fell in love with Rocco 'Rock' on page 8, he's my favorite kind of bad boy. When he finally gets to share his hidden talent with Summer for the first time (no it's not that...well not entirely) you'll be transported. I was in awe of how immersed I became in their experience...the feels are off the chart, sexual, sensual...HOT! It left me breathless <3
I feel another NM Catalano series coming on...you don't want to miss this one.

Canvas is such a blistering hot, sinfully provocative, captivating story that I could not put it down! N.M. Catalano has elevated the bad boy, alpha male character to larger-than-life with these four men who exude power and sex appeal with every breath. Their common bond is a long, intense, and dangerous history during which trust in each other was crucial for survival. And, as this spine-tingling story unfolds, is even more crucial now.
Holy hot pants! The skill with which layer after layer of these characters is revealed pulled me in and made my heart pound. Did I live vicariously through Summer? You bet! My every little dirty fantasy and then some were fulfilled. The writing is so explicit, so tantalizing that I needed recovery time after some of the scenes!
This story moves fast and takes no prisoners. Just when you think you know it all … bam! You’re left panting and begging for more. Begging!

So Good!
I loved it! It was so filthy and dirty. However, you can tell how much the characters really fell in love. I will definitely recommend this book to read.

Blurb:
4 inked men.
1 is very, very bad.
He made me an offer.
One I accepted.
His friends made me another.
One I shouldn’t.
I really, really shouldn’t.
But I’m not that girl anymore. The one I left behind, the one who does what’s expected, the one who has no choice. The one with secrets. I ran away from that life, and hope it never finds me.
I can choose to do what I want, with who I want. Now. Finally.
I've heard the talk, the whispers, and all of the innuendos. I know what they do. All of them. Together.
Then I accepted his offer. He did things to me, he awakened things inside of me. He's made me into something I never, ever thought I'd be. He’s the filthiest man I know, but he worships me with his lust.
How can I say no?
I was going to stay away from her.
Then they made me claim her.
If I didn't, then they all would.
Together.
At the same time.
She's mine.
I've got a past, secrets of my own. I'm not a man who does commitment, my life doesn't allow it.
But then she appeared out of nowhere. She's a mystery, a beautiful, innocent enigma, one I want to mark. Literally.
The problem is, I'm not sure I'll be able to stop.

Raring 4.5
Rock is the ultimate in bad boy book boyfriends. Ex-military, motorcycle, tattoos, tattoo artist, and in the Program. He's cocky, funny and all sweet on the inside.
Summer has built herself a safe place in her cute coffee shop and lovable (mostly) customers. She is hiding and feels like she can be herself for once in her life.
These two burn up the pages. The twist i didn't see coming and gave a great spin to the story.
Rocks friends are all awesome in their own way and I look forward to their stories.
Four men who have shared so much (wink) and are the best of friends. I see another great Catalano series!
I received a copy for an honest review.

Dear Lawd, this was hawt!
This book has a little bit of everything: deep friendship, sexual tension, suspense, action, funny banter, hot chemistry and sexy times.
Oh my, the sexy times.
Seriously, it's the kind of book you need to read alone, because everyone that took a clance at you would know what you're reading.
I'm certain at several points my face was red and I was hot and unconsciously squirming.
About the plot, I think The Beginning was writen after this book, even though the story is chronologically previous, but I thought I was gonna have some answers about it.
Maybe I'll get them in the next books, because I don't think their problems are really over.
It was a really hot read and I'm dying to dive into the next ones.

threw me at the end
Pseudo-spoilers here: This book focuses throughout on the intense attraction between the hero and heroine, but at the end, after consistently saying throughout the book he won’t share her with his friends (as they usually do with women), that starts happening, as well as absolutely out-of-the-blue MM action. This made no sense to me, and it was utterly jarring. After that, I felt like I didn’t know these characters at all, and that’s not a great feeling to have at the end of a book.

2 stars. This was really not good for me. It was a train wreck of a book that I could not look away from. The story was not bad, but the execution was. I had no idea from reading other reviews that this was pretty much pure, raunchy, cheesy porn. I like books with sexy times and I never say a book has too much sex. But this one was a dirty, orgy sexfest with no feelings of love involved. I was not expecting that from the reviews I read and it was definitely not worth the money.

I absolutely love this authors work that I have read previously and this new series by N.M. Catalano is going to be no different.
N.M. Catalano new series is called The Program and even though i have only just read book 1 I know its going to be one of those series that I will not be able to put down I will be needing more and more.
This is the story of 4 hot, tattooed, alpha males who have known one another a long time who all work together in the same tattoo parlour. These 4 men have shared everything together including a very lucky lady who catches their eye or sometimes it may even be two ladies catch their eye, These for men are seriously hot with a capital H.
Step forward Rocco aka Rock, Bull, Gringo and Snake and the lucky lady that has caught the eye of these 4 hit males in a girl that goes by the name of Summer. This is the story of Rocco and Summer.
Summer works in the coffee shop next door to the tattoo parlour. Summer has fancied Rocco from afar little realising that he too has fancied Summer from afar too. Rocco is getting goaded into going the coffee shop and make his move on Summer and the boys definitely told him that if he doesn't make his move on the Summer that the remaining 3 lads will. Summer is no pushover and is a strong independent woman who is hiding secrets and is hiding from someone/something but for the first time in her life Summer can finally be herself she has a great craic with the customers well almost all of them there is one creep in particular but that problem is soon sorted out.....
Summer and Rocco bring out the very best in each other, have great banter together as for the chemistry between them it is off the charts and were talking in and out of the bedroom. I loved how protective Rocco was over his girl.
I can't wait to read more of this series and get to know more about the other 3 lads.

I have read some erotic, this is ...is is there another word for it? It’s more....more than erotic more than desire more than wanting, needing, gripping.....what the &*&* really? It's all I am thinking about. Jesus H C lol!
We get to meet Summer and she is adorable!! I love her, love her independence, her need to be her OWN woman! Love her drive, love her passion for what she does. Her past is full of the worst things you can imagine yet she continues to keep going, not giving up. Can I say that I SO love Mrs. Merriweather and now I am totally talking like an irish woman haha she is just FAB!! Summer and her gang of regulars at the coffee shop are so freaking awesome!
Rock, & his crew yes! *inserts major grin* seriously though. Ladies, I am warning you! Panty melting, mouth watering, desire building grab YOUR mans and get busy!!!! whew!! Let’s just say what happens at the tattoo shop stays at the tattoo shop! Whole lotta horny women in that tiny town. Lol. I am sitting here shaking my head laughing...let's not forget Snake...dear lawd...one sec I need a minute!
OK where were we? The story line, ok so Summer arrives in a little unknown town. What is she hiding from? Who could she be running from? She happens to open a shop next to a tattoo parlor. Rock noticed her right away, she noticed him right away too. They secretly watch each other until finally (pretty much forced by friends) goes to the other. They both have their secrets. Finally admitting their attraction to each other after a slight injury, panties and pants may fly! Soon both of their past lives collide pushing them together even more. Snake, Bull, Gringo and Rock have worked hard to keep their lives as normal as possible these past few years, but duty called and as fate would have it it was perfect timing.
I don’t want to but I will mention STEVE ugh…..noooooooo!!!! That’s all he gets.
Summer goes missing, will Rock and the guys be able to find her in time to save her from her past that comes calling. Trying to bring her back into a life she fled from? Will they get to her in time. Now knowing what she was running from, will Rock still want her? Will Summer still want Rock once she knows his past?
I can NOT wait for the next book!!!!! A fan for life!!!

I love this author, N.M.Catalano is one of my go to authors & I have been eagerly awaiting this book.
Rock/Rocco is a hot, dirty talking tattooed bad boy who owns a tattoo palour. He has a thing for Summer the woman who opened a coffee shop next door to the tattoo palour.
Unbeknown they both fancy & have been fantasizing about each outher. Rock is forced into going into her shop by the three guys he works with by goading him, telling him they will go for her if he doesn't, the guys are lifeling friends who met whilst serving their country. In the shop we meet 'slimey' Steve who also wants Summer, though he is quickly put in his place by Rock.
Rock & the other guys like to have fun together & this fun usually involves one or two lucky women. Though seeing Summer Rock does not take part, Summer has secret & is running from something/someone. An accident at the coffee shop leads to Summer staying at Rocks house as she injured herself. Summer agrees to be Rocks art and tells him that she wants him initially he declines as he promised that he was just going to look after that but Summer soon gets what she wants a filthy dominating man and one of her best nights.
Rock & the guys are called about a retrival assignment & Rock believed that Summer is the girl in question. Summer goes missing & I really want to say more but I do not want to give the plot away. There is plenty of steamy scenes & they are well wrote & descriptive. This is a highly recommended read I for one wish my loval tattoo palour was like this one can't wait for the next book.
Rock/Rocco is a hot, dirty talking tattooed bad boy who owns a tattoo palour. He has a thing for Summer the woman who opened a coffee shop next door to the tattoo palour.
Unbeknown they both fancy & have been fantasizing about each outher. Rock is forced into going into her shop by the three guys he works with by goading him, telling him they will go for her if he doesn't, the guys are lifeling friends who met whilst serving their country. In the shop we meet 'slimey' Steve who also wants Summer, though he is quickly put in his place by Rock.
Rock & the other guys like to have fun together & this fun usually involves one or two lucky women. Though seeing Summer Rock does not take part, Summer has secret & is running from something/someone. An accident at the coffee shop leads to Summer staying at Rocks house as she injured herself. Summer agrees to be Rocks art and tells him that she wants him initially he declines as he promised that he was just going to look after that but Summer soon gets what she wants a filthy dominating man and one of her best nights.

WOW
A must read!! This book will make u wet your panties and come back for more. I love that Rock is a passionate guy and wants to explore and keep his girl and share his girl with his friends. As summer wants to explore also but not sure how tell Rock, tell Snake comes in the room while Rock and Summer are exploring and ask Snake to join. The passion that the 3 have is very exciting and very hot and sexy. This is my first book by this author and it won't be my last book as I will be reading more books written by N.M. Catalans.

OMG ...
I laughed - I cried - I was scared - I was excited - I loved it!!
Catalano perfectly blended a little dark, a little light and one hell of an explosive silver lining to come up with one wonderfully f@cked up shade of pewter.
We knew as readers there was a hidden past that would be coming back to confront someone (Suspense)
The banter and inner dialogue of the characters (Comedy)
The intimacy ---- (Erotica)
The caveman - our Rock with a heart - ( BadBoy)
The twisted psycho fiance' and her dad, the club - (Dark )
The sweet romantic play between our H/h (Good old fashioned romance )
Definitely an HEA
Alternating POV
Stand Alone - though this is the first book in a series
Due to sexual themes, I would recommend for 18+

Wow where to start on writing this review. I'm a huge fan of N. M.'s writing style but I think I was completely and utterly panting with each page. She made this book steam up my contacts! It was on fire with every scene. Even when Rocco and Summer we're just describing the attraction to each other it's like holy cow call the fire department. You get so lost in their holy hotness that you forget that each they both have huge secrets that are slowly unraveling. Summer is the bigger mystery about where she came from. Rocco gives you a little back story but you can tell him and his fellow brothers are not to be messed with. Seriously though it's one smoking hot novel that I hope she continues it into a series just because I need more of the private room at the tattoo parlor!

This amazing story is one of the most hottest books you will read and so BEAUTIFUL!!!The love story is beyond amazing and so sensual you will feel right along with them unable to put the book down.
I loved all the boys but Rock takes center stage with Snake not far behind, loving their protectiveness.Now this georgeous man knows how to feel and has the biggest heart ,but his naughty side is super sexy along with the beautiful Summer who is such a brave woman but all together is beyond amazing,the chemistry is truly outstanding.
Ms. Merriweather was hilarious I adored her attitude and comebacks,she was very wise.
NM Catalano out did herself with this story with her words and knows how to write to make the reader feel all the feels!!!!!
I voluntarily read a readers copy of this book

Ladies fasten you seat belts for a very "hot ride". I am honored to say, I have read the ARC of CANVAS! It is the filthiest, hottest, can't put it down book that I have read. There is a warning that should go alone with this book. Please make sure you have a hot body, or a vibrator at all times. It is also a" beautiful" love story. I love all the boys but Rock and snake are my favorite. I hope there is more to this family of friends. Thanks for many hours of hot reading. Oh hubby thanks you too!!

Holy Moly this book is dirty; no it's D.I.R.T.Y. Seriously, this book is so sexy the steam just pours out of the book.
It's at times funny and at times angsty and suspenseful. But more than anything else it is a hot and dirty quick read.

ARC provided in exchange for an honest review
Umm, yeah. I really don't think 5 stars will be enough to rate this book.
This needs like a 10 star rating. Maybe more. I don't know, I'm still trying to collect myself after finishing.
Let's get down to the basics, and rest assured no spoilers will be given in this review.
Summer, is running from her past. Rock (Sweet Baby Jesus) is sorta kinda doing the same thing. Separate, they're two souls who lost their way. Together, they're explosive.
Don't even get me started on Snake, Bull, and Gringo. They're in classes all of their own. If you're looking for a HAWT MMFMM, then my god read this ASAP!

Excellent!!! This was totally sexy, hot and romantic. Rock and his boys were all alpha and hotness. She was innocence. The collision heated and blew up the pages.
There was even a little bit of evil at play. Something for everyone

I found NMCatalano when a book was offered for free. When I discovered there was more to read I went to the beginning. The Program series starts with a Prequel to introduce you all to the men and how they came to ‘brothers’.
After reading the prequel I read this book Canvas. It’s a good read with some humour, intrigue, sex and love of 2 opposites that fit together and his ‘brothers’. I enjoyed the story and the journey it took me on.

Great
I loved the characters (except Sasha and Steve and the Dad). Great story, just enough filth, but tenderness too. I used to like the orgy aspects more than I do now, but it was still hot. I'd love to know where they all go from here, since I'm sure The Program isn't giving up. I'll be waiting Nadine 😀

Amazing
I loved this book from the very beginning, it was easy to get into then pulled me in completely. I loved rock from the start and summer's character and personality. Looking forward to book 2
