I am not going to lie I seriously have the hot's for the sexy tattoo, ex UFC fighter Sloane Michaels. He is caring, sweet with an alpha male attitude. His alpha male attitude is not over the top but he can be bit overly bossy at times but does know when to back down when it comes to Kat. Really Kat knows how to put him in his place to get him to take it down notch. Due to an incident from his past he has to always be in control of himself. He wants Kat and he wants her bad but due to a bad incident in her life she needs to learn to be a fighter.  He agrees to teach her to fight as long as she becomes his "Plus One" his bed buddy and that also means joining him for dinner events etc. They do not rush into the bed buddy part so quick as she has panic attacks due to a bad incident from her past and her last lover she was a basket case. Her panic attacks are not over the top just a fear in certain areas she needs to overcome. This is where his control really comes into play. While he is teaching her to defend herself it is making it harder and harder for both of them to keep their hands off each other. I love these steamy-cold shower-needed scenes especially when it comes to "Tap Out". 

The layers about their past is well done, paced out nicely through out the novel. The writing is smooth and everything from their first meeting to being interested in each other flow nicely. It does end in a semi cliffhanger but nothing that I was 'OMG I need the next novel now". But I do want more of Sloane and after reading this I already bought the next 2 in the series.  I enjoyed Jennifer Lyon writing style and to my surprise I have one of her paranormal novel Blood Magic (Wing Slayer Hunters #1) on my bookshelf. I also look forward to see how she writes in the paranormal department.

I got my copy free at amazon. Do not know how long it will be so if interested grab your copy now.  Highly recommend if looking for a well written contemporary romance. Amazon.
