In some cases, the cover really does give an accurate
portrayal of the contents of the book. REAL is one of those
cases.
The cover features a man -- Remy or "Riptide" as he is
called in the ring - shrouded in darkness, looking tough but
also contemplative. I think it fully encapsulates Remy's
character in the book. Remy is an enigma. In the ring, he is
a prized MMA fighter who garners the attention of many women
and men. Outside of the spotlight, there is a different side
of him that I think readers will find appealing.
Brooke just happened to be one of the women who watched him
perform in the ring. But when she is called back to meet
Remy after the fight, she doesn't know what to expect from
him.
Katy Evans' writing can often be dramatic. For certain
scenes such as the fights, they need to be because it's part
of the show. However, I wish that Evans pulled back a
bit in the more personal scenes so that Remy's character
could really shine.
Sometimes, I thought that Brooke confused her feelings of
lust with love and as a result it undermined her emotions a
little bit. Yet I could understand why she felt that way.
Remy's character may be hard to understand for some people
and I believe at first, Brooke was confused. As you read on,
more of the understanding will come out and hopefully
readers will find the real appeal to Remy apart from his
fighter status.
Katy Evans delivers a no-holds-barred punch that will knock
out readers. With its raw design and oozing
sensuality, I predict Remy will have a legion of fans
screaming his name.
HOT. SEXY. POWERFUL. PAINFUL. REAL. The scorching
international bestseller that strips away everything you've
ever believed about passion . . . .
Remington Tate has a bad-boy rep in and out of the ring, a
granite-hard body, and a raw, animal power that sends his
female fans into a frenzy. But from the moment their eyes
lock, the only woman he wants is Brooke Dumas. His desire is
pure, all-consuming, and REAL.
Hired to keep his perfect body working like a machine,
Brooke finally has the lucrative sports therapy job she's
been dreaming of. But as she tours the dangerous underground
fighting circuit with Remy and his team, Brooke's own body
becomes alive with the most primal of hungers. If what
happens between Brooke and Remy is ever as light as a
flirtation, it quickly becomes an erotic obsession for them
both, and promises so much more.
But their white-hot lust has a dark side--and when Remy's
deepest secret comes to light and Brooke's familial duties
demand action, will the pair be able to hang on, or will
everything that once seemed so real suddenly fade away like
an illusion?
