BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The first in a sexy new series where the hard-hitters of Las Vegas’s Stamina boxing gym are K.O.-ed by the women they never saw coming…
After suffering a devastating loss during his last fight, heavyweight boxer Jack Brady’s whole career went down for the count. Now, his late manager’s daughter has inherited his contract and Jack is pleased to discover that the girl he fell in love with as a kid has grown into a strong, sexy woman—until she makes it clear that Jack has no choice but to get in the ring.
Daniella Chambers is determined to get her father’s failing gym back on track with Jack’s upcoming fight. She knows Jack’s got the talent to become champion and decides to force the unmotivated fighter away from the neon lights of Vegas to train in the seclusion of her lake house. But when they take a time out from their sessions to steam up the bedroom, the urge to win gets all tangled up with their desires.
Now, Jack’s fight is swiftly approaching, and the fate of the gym isn’t the only thing on the ropes.
REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts First: Congrats to Jennifer on her debut contemporary novel. And second: Thank you for Jack and Daniella. I had the honor of reading this book early and let me just say that I loved these two!!!!
Jack Brady was an up and coming boxing star. But Jack played life a little too fast and way too loose one too many times. But sometimes when you are at your lowest point all you need is someone to open the curtain and kick your butt into gear.
Daniella Chambers is back in Las Vegas, not by choice but because she has to honor her father’s wishes. Sadly all she has to work with is a failing gym and a washed up boxer that likes booze and broads too much.
Jack and Daniella are great together. I loved that this story was a second chance at life. not just romance (but that was great too). But a second chance for both Jack and Daniella to put their life back together and to honor RL’s memory. The road is bumping and filled with potholes but together they can do anything. I will say that Jack is a bit of an asshat at times in this story. But grows on you and you want to be sitting ringside cheering him on. Daniella is tough, confident and not willing to take crap from anyone, especially Jack.
