Rating: 4 out of 5

Logan Rettino is an ex-ballerina who can no longer dance professionally because of an injury. She takes a job as an octagaon girl with the MMA where she meets former marine Keane O'Shea. The two become involved until Keane's past puts a spanner in the works. Logan's past also causes problems for her, which she must overcome during the course of the story.Despite knowing nothing of the MMA or ballet I really liked this book. Both characters were well-rounded and interesting and I enjoyed my journey with them. The love scenes were hot while the hero was a satisfying alpha. I loved Logan's creative cursing. It cracked me up each time she said or thought twist my bleeding tights or crinkle my camisole. I also liked the snippets at the beginning of each chapter that explained a MMA term.The cover was gorgeous. The plot moved smoothly and the book was easy to read. The author had obviously done some research and knew her sports. My only slight niggle was that once the black moment occurred I felt the pace lagged a fraction before everything concluded.I enjoyed this book very much and eagerly await further releases by Ms. Mannon.
