Review: Fighting Dirty – Lori Foster

Review: Fighting Dirty – Lori Foster

Fighting Dirty is as close to perfection as a story can be! Armie and Rissy *sighs* Fighting Dirty is among my most anticipated books for 2016, and Lori Foster outdid herself! I have been longing for Armie and Merissa’s story ever since I met them in the first Ultimate book. The tension between the two of them kept increasing and in their own book, it was palpable. I loved getting to now both of them better, especially how they reacted when they were under pressure. Merissa is a very strong heroine, she was truly put through a lot in Fighting Dirty, but she took most of it in stride, and that made her very dear to me. There is even […]

Review: Tough Love – Lori Foster

Review: Tough Love – Lori Foster

Hot, fun and with different kind of mystery playing out in the background, Tough Love really worked for me!! My Tough Love review: It’s no secret that I’m a huge Lori Foster fan, and that her Ultimate series is one I love very much. Tough Love is yet another fantastic installment in this series, where the hard, strong MMA fighters find their match in the woman they eventually learn to love. Stubborn characters, sizzling hot chemistry, strong friendships and family ties that won’t break no matter what, this story just had it all. Vanity entered the series when Yvette moved back, and several of the fighters noticed her from the get-go. She only ever wanted on man, though, and that […]

Review: Holding Strong – Lori Foster

Review: Holding Strong – Lori Foster

Lori Foster has done it again! Holding Strong is a beautiful contemporary romance with tough fighters, women who can hold their own, friendship, loyalty, smexiness and lots of suspense! My Holding Strong review: I fell in love with both Denver and Cherry, strong characters with difficult pasts, they were a great match in every way. Strong, stubborn, loyal, they both had some qualities that made me want to be friends with them. While Denver was was a little brooding sometimes, and quite the fighter, Cherry was more lighthearted, always laughing and dancing when they were out with friends. There was danger looming in the not so far distance, though, and Cherry wanted her past to be her past, something for […]

Review: Hard Knocks – Lori Foster

Review: Hard Knocks – Lori Foster

Hard Knocks features Gage and Harper, as well as several other characters that are part of Foster’s Ultimate universe. Short and very hot, it hit the right spot! My Hard Knocks review: Capturing the tension between Gage and Harper from the first line, Hard Knocks is a sweet introduction to the Ultimate series. If you’re wondering what series that is, you can check out my review of No Limits. The universe is that of MMA fighting, and the characters are very well done, some of them I already knew from the  Love Undercover series, which is also truly excellent! Hard Knocks is short, but still manages to bring out the main characteristics of Gage and Harper, both through the way […]

Review: No Limits – Lori Foster

Review: No Limits – Lori Foster

*I received a free ARC of No Limits form Harlequin HQN via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* No Limits is fast-paced, includes a great dose of suspense, and some sweet longing. My No Limits review: No Limits is the start of a new series, but it features characters from Foster’s Love Undercover series as well. Both Cannon and Yvette are really great characters, and since I’m a sucker for friends-to-lovers stories their relationship really did it for me. Yvette was in love with Cannon years ago, but he always pushed her away, now that they are both back in town, and kind of forced to live together thanks to Yvette’s grandfather’s will, Yvette wants to show him she’s […]
