They do nothing to make you care about them. I would have liked to have been given a choice to either save the girl or the world because honestly who cares about the animals. The artist never gets redeemed in the end the world is destroyed as a result of his actions.

They try and make you feel bad for destroying the world but there is no way to avoid it. While the art, music and game mechanics were interesting, I didn't care at all for the the collectable sub mechanic. It’ll make you consider getting a tattoo – well, at least looking in next time you pass by your local shop.I can see where the team was going with this but the game feels like it is lacking. In the end, Inked with a Kiss lands a high recommendation for the beauty of the romance between its characters. For readers of the Thorn & Thistle series, MJ appears in this volume as well and continues to be wonderful. I loved Riley, who felt appropriately adolescent-ish, and Jamie’s parents are so great to hate. The quality of the writing is very high and the author does a great job of making the reader feel like they’re settling down with two old friends, in an upper-middle-class (and lower middle-class) world of genuine emotions. Some readers may find Jamie’s tendency to infantilize Sierra or make a big deal of the twelve-year age gap between them annoying, but she gives good grovel about that by the end of the book, so it became less of an issue for me, especially when compared with their titanic chemistry, which brings the book to its wonderful and stirring conclusion. When the two meet, their romance is both sweet and tempered with hang-ups.
