Jude By: Lane Hart

(N) MMA cage fighter Jude Malone's life revolves around just three things-eat, sleep, and most important train. Jude's older brother Jax is a legend in the MMA world while Jude is at the other end. Jude has had his fair share of losses recently but he knows that he's a better fighter than his record shows he just needs a chance to prove it to everyone else. When his head coach gives Jude the offer of a lifetime, a major fight against a top MMA fighter, there's just one catch. Knowing this is an offer that cannot be passed up Jude decides to go for it, but it just might be a decision that he will later regret.
      Sadie Briggs is a quiet introvert, tomboy. She was raised by a single father and grew up in his gym surrounded by a bunch of MMA fighters. All the fighters just think of Sadie as their sweet little sister, not as a woman whose about to graduate from high school and soon start college. But everything changes when her longtime crush Jude Malone offers to go to Sadie's senior prom with her after her boyfriend dumps her just a week before the prom.
      Jude cannot believe his eyes or this new emotion he has for Sadie was she unexpectedly transforms into Cinderella and he begins to see Sadie as a woman for the first time. Jude becomes overwhelmed with emotions that he's never experienced before and they turn him into an alpha male fighter both inside and outside the cage. Now there is just one thing that stands in his wage from the title championship and Sadie, and that's the truth.
      I love, love, loved this book I just could not put it down and was disappointed when I had to. I manage to finish this book in no time because of how into this book I was. With that being said it should also be noted that this is a second book in a series, I skipped over the first one because after reading the sample it didn't really appeal to me. But that really doesn't mean anything you can skip over the first book and just miss a few of the details that they talk about in this book.

Real By: Katy Evans

(N) Remington 'Remy' Tate has a reputation for being a bad boy in and out of the ring. He also has this power/energy about him that sends women into a frenzy whenever he's around. But the moment that Brooke Dumas makes eye contact with Remy everything changes and Brooke becomes the only woman that Remy wants.
      Brook has just been hired to help keep Remy's body in perfect condition, a sports therapy job that she could only ever dream of having. But the more time that these two spend together the more Brooke's body comes alive from just being around Remy and his flirtatious nature.
      But as much as Remy comes off as being flirtatious he also has a dark side, one that he cannot always control.
      So at first while reading this book I was actually really into it, it held my attention for a while and had me wanting to keep reading. But somewhere along the way my attention started to drift away and I wasn't as into the book as when I started reading. I don't know what happened where I could go from being into this book to not but it happened. So I will not be continuing on with this series. This was just not the book for me.

Now, Please By: Willow Summers

(N) Now, please is the second book in the Please series continuing from Yes, Please.  Olivia was able to do what no other woman had done before, she made the legendary Hunter Carlisle make a compromise. Yet while Olivia has still only sign the employee contract that doesn't stop these two from getting closer. Unfortunately Olivia and Hunter can only get so close before the pain from Hunter's past makes its appearance known. When the two are forced to go to a work conference out a state to fight for a company against Hunter's father secrets begin to come out. Secrets that lead to Hunter pushing away from Olivia. Olivia knows that this could be the end for their business relationship, she could lose Hunter forever if she doesn't help him confront his past.
      While this book did not hold my attention as much as Yes, Please did this book is still a good book and worth reading. And I cannot wait to read the next book in this series and find out what happens next in this series.

The Prince and I By: Miranda King

(N) Crown Prince Adam Thorton in Europe must claim his throne but in order to do so he must claim a woman to be his princess before his next birthday or else he gives up his right to the throne. There's only one woman that Adam wants to be his princess, but she left him two years ago leaving him with a broken heart. Adam knows that no one else can be his princess but Emma and this time he's going to prove to Emma what she needs most is him.
       Two years ago Emma Hart left Adam behind and headed to New York which was one of the hardest things that she has ever had to do. Now two years later Emma is the owner of one of the most successful fashion empires in the world and although she left Adam two years ago he still holds a place in her heart. While there is still something between Emma and Adam there is still something that is holding Emma back from being with the man she loves.
       This book isn't one of my usual choices to read but I still ended up enjoying the book. The Prince and I is a quick finish in one sitting read and something that shouldn't be overlooked.
