Gosh, I cant say enough good about LP Dover, and I am thankful that I just happened upon her books. I began with her Gloves Off Series. Reading the emotion tales of these MMA fighters, undercovers, and women that are stealing their hearts. She has continued to produce the good ones. The stories you want to put in a collection on your kindle to revisit on a rainy day.
Summer is a former nurse, trying to get back into the swing of life. Life has been hard on her these past years. She lost her husband and her heart. When she watched her husband beat to death in front of her, she went into survival mode, like I only want to eat enough to wake up because I really don’t want to wake up without my husband mode. Two years later, she has opened a restaurant and is working beside friends.
Evan, swoon for Evan. He is a hot football player that has been watching Summer float through life for the past 2 years. She finally gives him a little itty bit of a chance and he pounces on it. He fights for it, he doesn’t let her say no to the chemistry between them. I absolutely loved these two together, watching a man trying to open a heart can be hard and she didn’t make it easy for him.
These two have a lot to overcome but in the end their hearts win. I loved having some of the others visit when investigating events that went on throughout the book. Another win for LP!
Former nurse Summer Jacobs has seen her fair share of
suffering, but she never expected tragedy to hit so close to home. After
watching her husband die in the MMA ring, Summer spends the next two years
fighting her way through the darkness. The last thing she needs is another
hardheaded athlete turning her life upside down. But that’s exactly what
happens when she meets a gridiron star who’s as skilled at stealing hearts as
he is at snagging passes.

Now Evan will do anything to protect her—because he never misses a chance to make a perfect catch.
