A surprise inheritance reunites a mixed martial arts fighter with the woman he’s never forgotten in the first in a smoldering new series from New York Times bestselling author Lori Foster
Cannon Colter is quintessential hero material: chiseled jawline, shredded body—the works. He’s also the guy who rescued Yvette Sweeny from kidnappers, only to put an end to her romantic dreams. These days, she’s older, smarter, determined to face whatever life throws her way. Even the prospect of sharing a house and business with Cannon.
Cannon knew Yvette wanted him three years ago. But she was young—and some things are worth waiting for. Thrown together by her grandfather’s legacy, he realizes how deep Yvette’s scars really go, and how much danger lurks in their quiet town. As pent-up desire explodes between them, protecting her becomes the only fight that matters. And he’ll break all the rules to do it….

Did you finish it? Yes
What surprises did it hold–if any? None
What scenes will stay with you?
~ The love scenes, of course. Gawd-damn!! The Sweet Hole was a drippin’.
~ Cannon’s inner thoughts when regarding Yvette and their situation. He was just so aware, so patient of what he had to do, I just loved him to death!
What characters will stay with you?
~ Cannon, most definitely. He’s being added to the Book Boyfriend List. I couldn’t wait for his story when I read about him GETTING ROWDY and Miz Lori didn’t disappoint.
~ Yvette, just for the simple fact that she’s a survivor and was doing her damndest to rise above the “victim” label.
~ Justice. He made, like, a cameo appearance, but the way Miz Lori described him, I was INSTANTLY intrigued and it made me wonder if he was part of the MMA fighter group at the rec center and eventually getting his own story.
~ Yvette’s friend, Vanity. And yes, whenever she was mentioned I was thinking of the lead singer from that 80s all-girl group, Vanity 6. LOL. Until they finally described her. Her personality really stood out for me and I hope she gets her own little novella or something. Maybe her and Justice can hook up? There, Miz Lori. I just gave you another idea for a book.
