My overall impression of the book
This was a really good read. I enjoyed this book and the love scenes were very hot. Reid is super sexy and the plot was very cute. The characters were a little one dimensional, nothing too deep about them. This story could have used a little more action. Reid was a MMA fighter and did not get into one altercation during the book. You can't write a story based on a fighter with no violence!! Even if it's romance...it's against the rules :-). The book was a little short, but straight to the point. I would read another book from this author. It was a pleasant Saturday afternoon read. I would suggest this book to others...

Characters:
Reid – Is the MMA Fighter of my dreams :-) I love the fact that he and Lucie had history, and who doesn’t love a man with tattoos and a mohawk.
Lucie – Was a okay heroine. I really didn’t understand why her self-esteem was so low, but I am glad that she began to realize her worth more and more throughout the story.
Plot and Writing : The writing was adequate and the story flowed nicely. The plot was a little lacking. As I already stated the story could have used a little more action and a stronger overall plot, but it was an enjoyable read.
