Wow...just wow! What a gut wrenching, beautiful story. So many times, I found my heart stopping just getting ready for the flood gates to open.
Such an excellent job at developing these characters - especially Jules. I loved how the author represented her switching from a total bitch bit by bit and not just "suddenly" does a complete turn around.
Also, this was a great premise of a story. Yeah, it may have been done in a different way before but not like this...to me...this was unique and the author laid it out perfectly!
I'm hoping we are going to be getting a story of Tony and Macie next!! Can't wait to see what happens with these two!...more

Holy mother of God...what a freaking fantastic...breath holding....tearful...beautiful story! This one had me captivated from the moment I picked it up and the intensity only continued to build with each turn of the page.
Between the relationship of Eliza and Till...to the loyalty and love Quarry and Flint had for Eliza..this book managed to take my breath away over and over again.
I am still trying to process all the feels and emotions that are running haywire through my soul.
Now, I can't wait to read Flint's story...especially after reading his chapter with that little confession he allowed us to be privy to....more

My Thoughts - Story Wow…what a great debut novel from Ms. Shen. Job well done and I’m not a big fan of the MMA genre but this book gripped me with the witty banter and arrogance turned to a perfect specimen of a man.

Both of these characters were developed perfectly throughout the story and the author was able to express the emotions and feelings these two went through during their relationship. It was easy to connect with them and with the story that I felt the flow and storyline was smooth which made this a quick and easy read.
I was captivated and devoured this book in no time from the moment I picked it up.
Ty was easy to hate in the beginning but shit…I fell for him hard when I learned more about him and his outer shell he showed to those not close to him. Boy oh boy…I want a man like him!

Review I’m still in the air whether this book was a 3.5 or a 4 rating. I got a bit annoyed over Logan and how much her “fall” impacted her decisions and the storyline. Keane was another story though – I understood his indecision on starting a relationship with Logan but there were times, I just wanted to smack him upside his head.
[image]
Yeah, there have been many books about an ex-soldier struggling with PTSD and taking his inner demons out in the ring, but there was something a bit different with this story. We were able to watch Keane and Logan use each other in order to overcome their insecurities.
This story is told from both POV’s so we get an idea of what is going on in Keane’s head along with Logan’s. I loved how Keane would one minute tell Logan they couldn’t do “this” but then in the next he was tearing her clothes off along with thinking sweet things in his head.

Re-Cap We start out with Logan beginning a new job as a ring card girl. This is the only good paying gig she could get after her devastating fall on national TV which impaired her ankle so bad that she would never dance professionally again. The only other dream she wants is to open her own dance school. Well, that is until she literally falls into Keane before a fight.
Keane suffers from PTSD and guilt over his best friend. He doesn’t sleep at night and is plagued with nightmares. He tries to drink, fuck, medicate and fight his way through the demons he carries on his shoulders and in his heart.
[image]
Logan needs Keane to fight – Keane doesn’t want to – Logan determined to keep her job diligently plagues Keane into agreeing to fight. She’ll help him kick his bad habits with natural remedies while he fights through the championship, on one condition, NO SEX. How long do you think that lasts?
So....cool – sex is great but it’s just sex....no feelings attached to it – Ok? Do you think that’s gonna hold?

Wrap Up Read about how Logan breaks through Keane’s shell to expose his black heart and get it beating again, but will it last?
