And as past demons and present-day danger collide, they're both about to learn what's truly worth fighting for… 

My Review

4.5/5 stars

"My whole life has been about you, Rissy. For so long, it seemed I could never have what I wanted most."
"Me?"
"Yeah. Hell, I love you so much, you are my life."

This one is definitely my most-awaited book in the series! Armie has continually kept me up on my toes from book one. Lori Foster absolutely slayed this story and reached every heat spot I expected from Rissy and Armie! Sweet, hot, sassy, and oh-so hard to let go.

She didn't always understand him, what motivated him and why, but she loved him. 

Rissy was done being the nice girl. She was done pretending she didn't feel anything for Armie and decided to just let her long-kept feelings out. There was a consistently sexy streak about Rissy even when on points when she allowed herself to be vulnerable and insecure. That woman was pure sass and strength, a woman weaved to be a fighter's wife. 

He'd do anything for her, except let her go. 

Armie Jacobson mastered the art of MMA. What he needed to master, though, was the skill of being around Rissy without feeling everything. Meeting Armie outside of this book sent the message that the man was a first-class manwhore. But being in his head was a completely different experience. He was a man who cared deeply, loved fiercely and and valued loyalty above all else. 

The mere fact that this book was absolutely hard to put down just shows how much of an expert Lori Foster is at this game. Her characters are real and poignant and utterly sexy and fun as well. This book was a jam-packed experience, complete with everything I want in a love story! The main characters are perfectly made for each other. There was a constant thick air of heat between Rissy and Armie throughout the whole book that made every kiss explode and every touch burn the pages in flames. Although there was an interesting tinge of suspense in the story, the whole book was generally light and heart-warming. I laughed and loved so much in this book! The characters are keepers! I'm so excited to find out what will happen to the other guys!
