About this listen
Chyna: Every chance I get, I go to watch the local fights. I crave the excitement and the rush as it courses through my body, with the sounds of fists meeting flesh. It’s not just the blood or the hard bodies that keeps me coming back each time, wanting more. It’s Jace ‘King’ Kash and his arctic blue eyes. He has fists made of steel with a body honed for speed. He’s breathtaking to watch in the cage.
The King easily brings men to their knees, and then graciously helps them up when he’s finished. Getting introduced to him was thrilling, falling in love with him, unexpected. Jace comes pounding through, waking my mind and body up; showing me what I was missing out on in my life. He makes me realize what I could have and what doesn’t destroy me, will make me stronger.

After a while, life starts to pile up - college, football, and helping out my brothers. I just need a small reprieve, especially if she's five foot five, brunette, and has legs that go on for miles.

Story
I’m destined to be in the Kings of Carnage MC. With Bash as my father and club VP, it’s practically in my DNA. Falling for the president’s daughter, however, is not. Leigh’s headstrong and independent, but also my best friend’s younger sister. Her presence is an alluring tease, one I struggle to ignore. Most of all, she’s forbidden, and I’m a rebel.

When he spots a stunning woman in the clubhouse and mistakes her for one of the club’s strippers, those priorities get a bit skewed.

Story
The night we met in the dimly lit bar, she looked like a brunette bombshell, and I wanted to learn her deepest secrets. With sun-kissed skin and soulful bedroom eyes, she was pure temptation, and I was mesmerized. As one drink led to two, I craved more of her playful banter and taunting lips. Resisting her wasn't an option, and we quickly became a desperate mess of tangled limbs and hot kisses. She tasted like the sweetest sin, but I was no saint.

I’m Amethyst Lily Tatum, and up until this point, I’d managed to maintain a fairly low-key life. I’m what you would call a socially unacceptable hot mess. Instead of partying, I’m skating, flipping ollies over guys who loved to underestimate me. Then I started college, met a wild girl who I would soon call my best-friend, had my first drunk one-night stand, left my phone at his house, and then, when I finally managed to meet my mom’s new boyfriend, I found out that my one-night stand was now my new stepbrother.

The better captured me; she's who stole my heart and made me realize I couldn’t live without this woman. The worst of her took my breath away - kicked me when I was down and twisted me into a million knots. When I first met her, I thought she was someone I would never see again. The second time I ran into her, it was a random coincidence. The third? I didn’t know it at the time, but she was the girl I was going to marry. But life isn’t always perfect. You have to take the better and the worse - even if it means giving her up.

College parties, beer, and one-night stands - that was my life. Now, I hunt down criminals, ethically or not, but if no one's asking, then I'm not telling. Drinking and women are still included, although I can't seem to forget the girl who almost gave me her virginity. She would've until I realized she was too young, and I wasn't looking to get thrown into jail.

Wont be my last from this author
This book was gifted to me via audible in exchange for an honest review. This is a good story written by Sapphire Knight. I love romance but I'm not wild about MMA; however, I love action in my books and this definitely delivers. I loved Jase and Chyna's story and I'm looking forward to more. Willa James' voice is a good "southern" voice. . . I should know. . . I'm from Louisiana. It was almost as if I were reading the book myself. Great job to both writer and narrator.

Decent story line
The story line was decent but I didn’t care for the female narrating all of the male parts. I believe a man should have narrated that part. I would like to read it rather than listen to this audiobook

Jace and Chyna
Sapphire Knight can write one heck of an MC/Mafia book but I have to say she totally and absolutely out did herself with an MMA book. It was stunningly written, Sapphire knows how to write about amazing characters whom you grow to love and adore, they have outstanding depth and intrigue. Jace is an alpha male, with a soft heart. Chyna was his fan or I should say fan of MMA. She had a crush on Jace though and attended a lot of his fights. They had beautiful chemistry together. Then things go haywire. This book is suspenseful, romantic and down right Extraordinary.
Narration was great!

not for me
Not what I expected or wanted. These people are supposed to be adults, but they acted like horny teens. Chyna was a tease with no morals from the start . She threw herself at Jace non stop. Why?? Slow down girl. Maybe she was in heat, because that's how it read- like a 'B' grade movie. I was disappointed and struggled to finish listening. It never got better. I won't be continuing with this author. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator made no effort or attempt at the male voice, and the female voice sounded redneck backwoods and not appealing.
