I know better than to fall for the bad boy, a disgraced boxer, a man
with demons.
I never mix business with pleasure.
My mind screams no, but my body demands.
Harder.
Faster.
More.
I’m no match for him when he fights dirty.
His dark past comes back to haunt us, but the secrets and hidden
intentions only pull me closer.
I should keep it clean, but I can’t resist the
Filthy Fight.

MY REVIEW:

I must say I was excited with this intriguing storyline about the boxing community and the anticipation of a bada$$ heroine, which is a favorite of mine. All the elements are there; a renown boxing gym, a brother/sister combo who inherited the gym from their legendary trainer father, a tarnished former boxer making a comeback, and a sexy love story. Mateo as the former boxer was a sympathetic character and had some great qualities although he was a little too insecure for me in the beginning. Danny as the son trying to step into his father’s shoes was a dick most of the time. Julep as the daughter vacillated between strong and a doormat for her brother. A missed opportunity for a great heroine for me. There is an insta-lust connection between Julep and Mateo which moved fast and elevated to love. She’s his biggest supporter as he makes his comeback to save the gym. This does have this author’s trademark dirty love and steamy sex. Not quite as dark as her usual. I’m reluctant to say that this one fell short for me. I didn’t really feel the instant chemistry between the lovers and they moved really fast to sex when there were so many reasons not to go there. Satisfying ending. I do look forward to the next story from this fabulous author.

I love books! I have been reading for as long as I can remember. I was the kid with the flashlight under the covers reading until the wee hours. Books were my refuge. I was delighted to discover tree climbing. I would take a book and climb to the top of a Mimosa tree and read for hours...and of course ignore my mother calling for me to do chores. I was committed to reading all of the Nancy Drew stories. Ned was my first book boyfriend. When I was in my early teens I discovered Harlequin romances. I feel in love and it changed my life. I was in love with Love 💕 That’s something for a girl who hadn’t been kissed yet. When I read “he thrust his throbbing member into her womanhood” I was lost to discovering more about this particular brand of romance. But I don’t just enjoy romance reads. My father-in-law introduced me to the high fantasy genre and I loved it. When I bought my first Nook the world of books really took me by surprise. I was enthralled with all the available genres and to my delight I discovered erotica. In most cases, I was with family on visits to bookstores and you don’t peruse those even if they carried them. Oh the shame of it! ;) Thanks to Nancy Drew I still enjoy mysteries along with romance, fantasy, erotica, paranormal, steampunk, thrillers, and well, most anything except a horror of a horror. My favorite might be romance suspense but it’s hard for me to pick just one. I had a serious health issue a few years ago and was forced to quite working after building a career I could be proud of. It was devastating and depressing. I lost myself in books and now spend my days (and nights) reading. I am so appreciative of authors and the wonderful storytelling I’ve found in books. It takes me away from my troubles and introduces me into a world like no other. I love books!
