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.
