Resumen del Editor

Kane Travis is one of the most successful fighters in the UFC. His name is known worldwide. Men want to be him, and women just want him. All Kane wants is the heavyweight title. Nothing else matters to him, not until he sees Emmy twirling around a pole.

Kane has one rule: Never give anyone else control. He doesn't let anyone in, especially women. The night he meets Emmy, he knows she is more dangerous than any opponent he has ever fought.

Emmy Sanders will do anything to care for her younger brother, even taking her clothes off at a seedy strip club. Ever since their parents' deaths, she has been the sole provider for them both. All Emmy wants is to get her brother through college. Nothing else matters to her, until she sees Kane sitting at the end of the stage.

Emmy has to have control over every aspect of her life. There is a time and place for everything, and she never wavers from her plan. The night she meets Kane, she knows he is more dangerous than anyone she has ever met.

Adult content not suitable for those under the age of 18, including but not limited to: sexual situations, foul language, and violence.

Fast paced

Would you try another book from Emily Minton and Alexis Noelle and/or Logan McAllister?

While the story was good everything progressed a little too quickly for me. I would have enjoyed it much more had certain things been more expanded on. With that said if you like quick reads/listens and just need a fighter fix then this is the way to go. I would try another book narrated by Logan McAllister.

What about Logan McAllister’s performance did you like?

He has a great voice and I really liked when he narrated Kane's chapters. Unfortunately he also narrates Emmy's chapters and at times I forgot whose POV I was in.

Good

Any additional comments?

This audiobook was given to me for a honest unbiased review. This was a good story. I love UFC Fighter romances any way, but this one was pretty good. Well rounded in the emotional ring, would laugh and cry through out the story.

Gotta fight for what you want

This is the first time I've read either of these authors. I can guarantee it won't be the last. It's a shorter story so the love is insta, but it's a good story. Boy sees girl, boy wants girl, boy gets girl.

There are a few outside forces that try to keep Kane and Emmy apart, but it takes more than that to stop true love.

Emmy is raising her brother on her own and has turned to the one thing guaranteed to make easy money: Stripping.

Kane Travis is a fighter. Born to a shitty father yet an amazing mother, Kane has pursued a career in professional fighting. He's excellent at what he does.

When Kane sees Emmy, he knows he has to have her. Enter alpha male tendencies and Emmy clearly can't resist. I mean, who can resist the gorgeous fighter who won't stop pursing her?

No one.

I enjoyed this and it's short length didn't hinder the story at all. There is still drama--some that hits close to home for many. There is still a love story.

And the narration is excellent. I had never listened to this narrator before, but he was the perfect Kane Travis. I also enjoyed his narration of Emmy. It wasn't overdone or ridiculous. He told the story well and I was able to distinguish between characters.

Entertaining and enjoyable

3.5 stars

Very entertaining, engaging and enjoyable. Keep your earbuds in for this one. The steamy romance is hot & heavy in this story.

A story about an MMA fighter and Stripper is nothing new or unusual and the story is predictable in many ways with a few unexpected twists to keep it interesting. It's a good solid story with really good narration. It is one of the more enjoyable shorter stories I have listened to in a while. Being a shorter story it moves at a pretty fast pace. It's well written and flowed smoothly with characters that were well developed.

Each have had their own rough patches in life. Kane and his brother suffered at the hands of and abusive father. Emmy is helping to raise her younger brother after their parents died. When they meet the attraction is immediate and sparks fly.

Logan McAllister does a really good job with the narration as usual. Clearly spoken with a nice even pace. His voice is so deep and gravelly just how you want your bad boy to sound. Of coarse his male character voices are great. His female "in character" voices are really good as well, but when narrating the "thinking" female parts it's done in his regular voice which is a bit confusing at times. It's Emmy thinking but in Kane's voice. He was able to bring the characters, their emotions and story to life through his narration. Very enjoyable.

This would have been a great book with dual narration.

Repeated lines occasionally.

Good story for a busy day at work.

The narrator was kinda monotone. I tend to enjoy a book more when the character voices are different. That's the only negative I have. I would have thought the protagonist storyline would have been fleshed out more. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Sweet story

I liked this book. It wasn't very long, so there isn't a ton of time to developed the characters, but I loved Kane and Emmy's love story, the lack of relational drama was refreshing and the support and love from and for their family and friends made the story feel more real than other books I've read that are filled with angst and turmoil. I would definitely recommend this book.
