The BookWhisperer's Rating:
An
up-and-coming MMA fighter wants more than just one night from a woman fleeing
her past in New York Times bestselling author Lori Foster's irresistible new
novel
Heavyweight
fighter Denver Lewis plays real nice, but he doesn't share. That's why he's
been avoiding top-notch flirt Cherry Peyton. But a man can only resist those
lush curves for so long. Their encounter surpasses all his fantasies, bringing
out protective urges that Cherry's about to need more than she knows…
Denver's
combination of pure muscle and unexpected tenderness has been driving Cherry
wild. Yet no sooner does she get what she's been craving than old troubles show
up on her doorstep. And this time, Cherry can't hide behind a carefree facade.
Because the man by her side is one who'll fight like hell to keep her safe…if
only she'll trust him enough to let him…
I really enjoyed the first two books in this series, as well as
the main characters but for some reason, I couldn’t get into Denver and Cherry’s
life.
From the beginning, there was just something that didn’t click
with me regarding them – their like for each other, their passion for each
other, and just them. Which is really
hard for me because I really like this series.
I liked that there was some deeper secrets in this book. Both Denver and Cherry had some personal
issues that they had to sort out and deal with before they could really be
happy with each other. It is always
wonderful to see how the author takes on such a struggle between two characters
that have the weight of the world on them.
What I did keep me pulled in was all the upcoming series couples
that made their appearances and started seeing each other in a new light. Armie and Rissy…can’t wait! Stack and Vanity….their
story is next! Foster has set up some
great couples in the next few books.
