~ Excerpt ~


“So, it’s true then?”

My breathing stopped. “What’s true?” I asked cautiously. 

“That you don’t have sex before a big fight.” Her look was so innocent and hopeful, yet it still took me a second to figure out why she was asking this.

“Yes,” I finally answered. Her cute little frame seemed to relax a little, making me feel—once again—like a total dick. She didn’t know I paid Sara; she was talking about something completely different, about the night we almost hooked up. The night I told her I couldn’t because I had a fight the next day.

She chewed at the inside of her cheek a moment, maybe considering what I’d just said. Shit, that meant she thought I’d just made that up to get rid of her. Not fucking likely. Putting the brakes on that night had been the hardest thing I’d ever done.

“So,” she said as she looked up at me innocently through her eyelashes. “What does that do? For a fighter, I mean.”

I chuckled. “You mean besides frustrate the hell out of us?”

She smiled—thank fucking goodness—then nodded for me to continue.

“You know that stereotype that most guys are boneheaded cave dwellers driven by instinct?”

“Is it considered a stereotype if it’s true?” she said, then giggled.

God, she had a great laugh.

I nodded. “That’s what I was getting at. On some very basic level, we fight in order to survive and procreate.”

She scrunched up her nose, making her look super cute. “But wouldn’t you fight better then? If you have sex, then you have someone to fight for, right?”

Her hand went up to mine, which was still resting on her shoulder. She absentmindedly played with my fingers until she noticed I was watching her, and realized what she’d been doing. She let her hand drop.

I shook my head. “We fight to procreate. Once we’ve had sex, we’ve done the job and have no reason to fight.”

“Hmm.” She nodded. “So I guess now that you aren’t fighting for a while, you’re free to take care of business.” Her gaze drifted down my body.



~ My Thoughts ~


Wow, this author has blown my mind away with the writing and details in each character brings a new meaning to Love. The emotions that the main characters went through not just one but both was high and you could feel it come off the pages as you're reading it. This was live passion right before your eyes you couldn't help but be hooked by such an amazing read. I was able to read this in 1 day from cover to cover without stopping it really captured my attention from the first page, that's how wonderful the writing is. It's a very powerful love story mixed in with the fighting world, with problems that really most likely happen, but its love is dangerous, the 2 main characters overcome everything that is thrown at them and then more and come out on top loving each other like they should have the hole time in this 2 person POV story. That I for one couldn't get enough of. It's a MUST READ MMA romance story you don't want to miss. Trust me!!!

But when his latest gig finds him admitted to the ER sporting an erection from hell, thanks to the little pill given to him by the director, he can’t get the pretty little nurse who treated him out of his head, even though he knows she’s so far out of his league it should be illegal.
