She is on a bad blind date that he best friend Blair has set up for her and he has brought her to an illegal fight, she is surprised when the fighter that they are there to see is Blaze and as always he looks none too pleased to see her, but his reaction to her is different than it has ever been and the look in his eyes isn’t one that she has seen before nor is he willing to let her out of his sight demanding that she is going home wit him that night. All of a sudden everything that she has thought she knew is wrong and the man she thought hated her wants nothing more than to claim her as his. Can she trust his sudden change in attitude or believe the words that he is telling her? Could the love she has had for Blaze be about to become her reality?\r\n\r\nBlaze has known that Fay belonged to him for a long time now and has been planning their future, she thinks that he hates her, but in reality he has been protecting her from a far since she turned eighteen and he convinced her parents to kick her out of the trailer, h e knew that they were only going to use her for money, watching as she rented an apartment and making sure that her rent was paid and any repairs were up to date. But the night that she turns up at one of his fights with a date was the night that he decided that he was done waiting and it was finally time to claim his woman and claim her was exactly what he did. However he is in for the ultimate fight trying to win her over after so many years of keeping her at arms length. Will Blaze be able to convince Fay that he lobes her and that they belong together or will his fighting life come back to haunt him and leave the ones he loves in danger?\r\n\r\nReally loved this book with Blaze giving Fay time to experience life before he gave her the type of life that she had always wanted as a child. Fay certainly kept Blaze on his toes and made him work for her love.

And the male character is what you expect when you think of words like alpha male and possessive. I enjoyed how the storyline opened up into the thick of it. There was no tip toeing around, the author knew what she needed to do and she went all out. I really liked the main female characters, she was one of those female characters you couldn't help but love and also feel was totally relatable and realistic. The storyline was fast paced and even though this was the case it didn't feel rushed, it just helped to show how determined the male was when it came to getting his female. The main characters were opposites of each other and complemented each other so well. I loved how the male had the dominant role, where he was happy to do what it took to take care of her without her really knowing about it (he does come clean in the end and it's dealt with correctly) and also take care of his sister (the females best friend). I loved the fighting element, it gave it a more raw and gritty feel and in doing so it made the little bit of drama at the end feel more natural to the storyline.

Her date brought her to an illegal fight where she sees her crush and best friends' older brother, Blaze fighting. Blaze sees her and Fay realizes she needs to leave, but Blaze intercepts her. This leads to a hot steamy scene between them, one of many. Blaze has decided he's done being in the background of Fay's life and he's ready to claim her as his and have her be his. Fay is reluctant and is having difficulty believing he really wants her; she has seen the type of women he has been with in the past and thinks she's not as good looking. Then there's the issue of Blaze being the older brother of Fay's best friend. This book has some violence, he's a street fighter or cage fighter or whatever it's called. Despite being this total macho alpha, he will do anything to convince Fay to be his and that he is serious about them being together. As I mentioned there are hot steamy scenes between the two of them, it's worth mentioning twice, they're that hot. This is a quick read and not a cliffhanger and no cheating.
