Martial arts champion Abe Montgomery is dead-set on winning gold at Nationals. Paris Rivera has sworn off men and martial arts. When these two meet, the chemistry is explosive.
Abe may dominate on the mats, but he’s fallen hard for Paris. The fight of his life looms ahead, not only for his dreams but for the sexy woman he soon can't live without.

My Review
There’s something about a Man who can kick some butt with his bare hands and feet that turns a woman on a lot. Well, at least this woman. I’ve been fascinated with Martial Arts since I was a little girl. Unfortunately, I only took a month of it in middle school. My Parents didn’t want to deal out the money for an expensive Martial Arts Academy. =(
I enjoyed looking at the eye candy on the Cover…that undoubtedly will have me reading the book. I think it’s the tattoo that captured my attention more though on the cover…or could it be the nice rugged abs in the front…*sigh*
Finally, I got to live it again through a Short Erotic Novella written by Skye Warren. Oh Yes! Thank you, Thank you!! =)
What I loved about this Erotica Book…was the development of the characters, the sex scenes and the drama the characters went through to be with each other. Did I mention some steamy, hot, sexy sex Scenes?
Abe is focused on gold well he’s supposed to be until a bet he makes, and then he meets Paris, who throws him off. He’s never met a woman like her before. Of course, Paris is not into being in a relationship due to her past relationship. She especially doesn’t want to hook up with a guy who is into Martial Arts.
Abe loses focus of the course and Paris…well…she ends up hooking up with Abe the one kind of person she didn’t want to be within her life.
Poor Abe, went through hell to try to win Paris’s attention. I did get a little upset when Paris revealed why she didn’t want a serious relationship with Abe. Not a good excuse in my eyes. If she didn’t wish to Abe…turn him over to me. =)
I loved the ending and wasn’t expecting that at all. Abe was clueless when it came to Blake.
I recommend this book to anyone who wants a good Erotica book to read. I also recommend it to anyone who wants a strong male character to read.
I plan on reading Skye Warren’s other books.

Owner/Reviewer at A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog
I guess I should type a bio here. I'm FranJessca, or Fran for short. I'm the owner/reviewer behind A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog. I've been reading and reviewing books on my blog since leaving the Navy in 2011, and I will keep doing it as long as possible. My favorite genres will always be Romance & Fantasy, and I read every subgenre underneath those two genres. (Sorry, not a fan of nonfiction, so don't try to convince me to read it.)
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
