31/2 stars, Jared “Hammer” and Kalista (Kali) have worked across the street from each other for some time, Hammer has always wanted her but he would never try anything with a woman who is already taken, so when Kali walks into his gym and he finds out her jerk boyfriend dumped her because of her weight he is furious and unbelievably happy. Now that Kali is free Hammer has no intentions of waiting for her so he sets about taking what he has wanted since her first saw Kali.Kali planned to dump her ex her just got there first. Jared is everything Kali knows she will never get so when a date of drinks soon turns to more Kali is more happy than she has ever been. As Kali and Jared grow closer together neither can deny how they feel and soon They find themselves in the relationship they both always wanted and in no time fall in love. But Kali has her doubts that she will be what Jared wants, and Jared has people pulling him in the directions they think his life should go. Now They will both have to decide what is most important in life and what is worth sacrificing for love.This was a sweet quick read that wasn't complicated but was about Hammer/Jared and Kali falling in love and learning to trust each other after having experiences that taught them life didn't always give you what you want. I liked this book Jared was completely devoted to Kali once they were together and no woman even registered but her. He is a big bad ex patriot and ex MMA fighter but I wish we would have scene more of his bad and not just been told about it. He was very possessive of Kali and I loved that but he came off to soft( for lack of a better word) when everything I was being told was that  he was this big bad guy.I'm not saying this was a bad story at all because I did like it and will read more from this series in the future I just wish we would have scene more of Hammer in action. With all that being said This was a nice quick read that was refreshing to not have all of the same conflicts that so many books have and the love Jared has for Kali was beautiful, she WAS IT for him and I loved that.
