Slade Saxon is the oldest of a family considered royalty in the fighting world. Now retired after winning three championships, he’s following in his dad’s footsteps by running their gym. But stepping away from that career has left a void in his. He’s lost, tired of those who only see his fame and what he can do for them.

Annie Bennett is a small-town girl that traveled to Florida to honor her grandmother’s final wish. When her path collides with that of a handsome stranger, she has no idea how completely things are about to change for her.

Unfortunately, Slade’s past is filled with those he’s defeated in the ring, marring the future they’re starting to look forward to as he gears up for the most important fight of his life.

MY REVIEW
One run-in (literally) and this couple's insta-love was set in stone. Annie's not from around here, and Slade can tell, but he doesn't care. Annie's his angel and he means to keep her.

For what it is, (insta-love with not much else) this is a likable story. I wanted a bit more from it - more steam, and more character and relationship development, but it was generally enjoyable. So why 3 and not 4 stars? There was far, far too much telling, not showing. I felt as if most of it was exposition with the author telling me what happened, rather than allowing the characters to show me.

Warning: Sweet, sexy and safe reads! Happily ever after guaranteed! This author writes what she likes to read. That means there will be instalove, OTT Heroes, and, brace yourselves, virgin characters at times. If none of those float your boat, you might want to find another book. If they do, you're in the right place.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...

Instead, I somehow ended up living in Evan Ricci’s house. The single dad now owned a bunch of properties and one of them was the place I’d rented. He’d taken it off the market and moved in before I got there. I just never got the memo. Unfortunately, there was no other place in town available, so Evan let me stay. Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...
