I’ve been giving Axel not so subtle hints for months. He comes in once a week for a shave and takes a piece of my heart with him every time he goes. The late night barbershop here at Principal Ink feels more like home than the crowded apartment I share with several roommates.
I know Brandon wants me as much as I want him, but there’s a secret I’ve kept from the people at the social club connecting the tattoo shop with the barbershop where Brandon works, and exposing my secret might burst the bubble I’ve created. He might not want me after I reveal what I’ve been hiding.
One night, a box shows up at Principal Ink, a box that will change our lives forever. Axel won’t have a choice but to come clean, but will Brandon ever be able to trust him again?
The Alpha’s Biker-Kissed Omega is a sweet with knotty heat mpreg with a rescued baby, successful but troubled alpha, and the omega who makes them a family.

Wonderful. Such a cute, sweet story. The title is misleading, I think the alpha rode his bike once. But it was well worth it. I can’t wait to read more of this series.
All the stories in this series have been sweet, but this one is extra cute. Maybe it’s the contrast between Ranger’s perfectly respectable exterior as a small-town principal and his deeper bad-boy instincts that make for great entertainment. Or maybe it is watching newly-arrived social studies teacher Henry being driven to distraction in the best way possible. Either way, how these two men get to know each other, fall into bed, and figure out their lives once they have sort-of clear heads again had me smiling all the way.
i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the story of Axel and Brandon. Axel is a lawyer and on the weekends, he leaves the city and hangs around a bar with his biker friends, who think he is a truck driver. Axel also gets a shave every week from the cute omega barber Brandon every week. Axel likes Brandon, but knows he doesn't approve of lawyers, so he knows he can never tell him the truth about what he does. Brandon really likes Axel and tries to give him hints about being with him. When a baby is left in a box at the door of the bar, Axel calls a police officer he knows and he tells him to take the baby home with him until a social worker is available. Axel doesn't know anything about babies, so he asks Brandon to come home with him to help care for the baby. Brandon agrees and if shocked to see Axel's house. When the police officer tells him they have to keep the baby a little longer, he accidentally lets it slip Axel is a lawyer. When Axel tells Brandon it is the reason he never asked him out, he knows there is nothing keeping them apart any longer. They settle into a routine caring for the baby and being together. Soon axel has to return to work in the city and Brandon wonders what will happen. I really liked this story. I love how they cared for the baby and how Axel stepped into being a family man. I love how they both seemed to love the baby. I think Axel never knew he wanted a family and when he got them, he knew he would do anything to keep them. Good one.
5* - very very good and rare (it would be a Blow- Away-book like ‘Jesse's Smile' or ‚Joey’ from Angelique Jurd, ‘Save the at he kids' series from EM Leya, ‘Love’s Tethered Heart’ from C.L. Etta or 'Liberty' from Seth King), it's like an A+
4* - very good and will be often reread and is a WOW-book with interesting plot and surprises (like most of Andrew Grey’s books) it's like an A
3,5* - a really good book, which will be reread a few times a year (most romances where you can enjoy for relaxing and during waiting times in hospitals). I can recommend them definitively! It's like an B+
3* - it could be more then a one-time-reader, maybe 2-3 times a year. It’s like a B
2* - it was ok to read, but it's more a one-time- reader (i wouldn't recommend it heartily, but it was ok). It's like a C-, D
1* - sorry, but that isn't really a book for me (too many mistakes, not nice plot, illogical, so an absolut NO-GO). It's like failure in the whole line, dismissed, repeat the class
Brandon worked as a barber attached to Principal Ink and is attracted to regular customer Axel. Omega Brandon shared a place with several flatmates and worked as a barber attached to Principal Ink. He is attracted to regular client Alpha Axel but Axel never showed any interest in Brandon other than friendship. Alpha Axel was a lawyer at a big firm in the city but on weekends he liked to get on his bike and go to Roseville where he had a cottage and relax by visiting Principal Ink then getting his bread trimmed by the sexy Omega Brandon who worked there. One this Friday night he and Brandon where leaving at the same time and find an abandoned baby in a box which throws then together. A MM MPreg romance to relax and enjoy.

This is a rather sugary sweet story for the most part (which is what I've come to expect from this series), some tension but not too much drama overall. I thought Brandon and Axel were cute together. I liked that they had some background, but it's still a really quick romance (but the close quarters moved the romance along). This story did take more than just a bit of suspension of disbelief as to how the plot with the baby was progressing (2 guys who barely know each other are give foster custody that quick?), but the cuteness helped move past that.
I liked the little hints of some of the previous characters. Not enough to detract if you haven't read the stories, but just an appearance here or there.
A man who steps up to care for a baby not his can't be all bad. Axel, Alpha lawyer lises to ride his bike on weekends and relax at his cottage. Brandon, Omega crushing on Axel cuts his hair when he's in town. Axel aware of Brandon's concerns about lawyers, conceals his profession and treats Brandon as a friend while crushing on him also. After finding an abandoned baby, Axel decides to care for the baby and asks Brandon for help, since he knows nothing about babies. They have an adventure until Axel has to return to work. Their closeness develops into a relationship. What will they do abotu the baby? What happens when Axel has to return home? Will a relationship be long distance or will they have to make changes? Nice short story. It was a delight watching Axel and Brandon navigate parenthood. Nicely done Ms Hart. I received an ARC from Booksprout for a review.

Brandon and Axel had great chemistry right from the very beginning.
Personally, I felt that things moved far too quickly between Brandon and Axel which made it difficult to connect to the either character. Brandon’s insecurities were scratched upon but not fully explored. I wanted more meaningful interactions between the two.
Overall, this was a good read but I was left wanting more of an emotional connection between Axel and Brandon.
Brandon longs for the alpha who he only sees on the weekends. Axel is hiding a part of himself. One little baby changes everything. Will Brandon be able to accept who Axel really is? Will Axel realize where he wants to be in life?
Another Alpha Kissed hit! I liked how neither character really hesitating in taking care of the baby. Axel definitely proved he was worth the wait when it came to how he was with his omega. I didn't blame Brandon for being worried and was proud that he put his foot down. Good read!
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Brandon and Axel were thrust together when a baby was dropped off in front of the business Brandon worked in. They were put into being the baby's guardian. After a while they fell in love with each other. They soon learned Brandon was pregnant. Because of somebody else trying to adopt the baby Axel asked Brandon to marry him. After they married they soon adopted the baby which they named Braxton. A few months later along came Ruthie into the family they were creating.

Axel and Brandon have been dancing around their attraction for one another for too long. I liked that these two jumped into parenting with such fervor. Axel was suddenly faced with decisions about his life and career and over and over made the right ones. Brandon is faced with so many changes so quickly but his commitment to his new little guy and Axel never wavers. The story overall is sweet and light with a bit of spice. Just lovely.
There were too many inconsistencies for this. At one time Brandon was the baby of the family and axel only child. Yet somehow few pages after Brandon helped take car of his brothers and sisters as infants. Then there were instances of just what I felt like was character displacement. Where it was just slightly off on the story progress. Love this author hutt this one. ....great story in theory just missed the mark for me.
Brandon run a barber shop as part of the tattoo shop called Principal Ink. There's also a lounge that separates the two were bikers hang out. Brandon is attracted to one of the bikers whose name is Axel. Axel is attracted to Brandon but he has a secret and he knows if Brandon finds out he won't like him anymore. One night a box is left at the door of Principal Ink and Axle secret isn't a secret anymore. I really enjoyed this book.
Totally fell in love with this couple! The alpha biker/lawyer meets the omega barber. Through an abandoned baby into the mix and you make an amazing book.
This book was addictive and I couldn’t put down once I started it!

Another good quick read of this entertaining series, with an Alpha making the right decisions, once a surprise comes to him and the Omega he's been lusting after. An enjoyable read.
I absolutely loved this book and was honored to have been able to read and review. It was such a phenomenal read and had amazing characters as well as an amazing story line. I just could not get enough of it and once I started reading it I could not put it down. I recommend that you read it.
