Our thoughts...

  

I have to start by addressing the cover! WOW! HOT!  Loved it.  The cover caught my attention from the first look and I wanted to read it.  I didn't even read the description.  I just opened it up on my kindle and started reading. 

I really did enjoy this book. This was my first time reading this author and I was pleasantly surprised. In The Fighter you meet Laney and Heath.  Laney's family owns the apartment building in which both her and Heath live.  They both work out in the facilities gym every morning and that is where they catch each others eye.  Heath is a super hot player looking guy with a rocking body and tattoos.  All you have to do is look at that cover and you can tell.  Their interactions become more and more frequent and the angst keeps building but Heath has a secret.  Heath doesn't trust Laney and Laney is scared that Heath could really hurt her.  You have to read this gem to find out the secrets and the drama that unfolds.  I think you will be happy to read it.  

If you like MMA or boxing books you will be happy with this read.  I enjoyed the book very much.  The writing could use a little bit of a tune up but the story line was on par.  This is book 1 in The High Rise series.  I have not heard or read anything about book 2 or how many books there will be but it does not end in a cliff hanger.  4 hot tattoo stars.
