In Lorelei James' fourth book in the Mastered series, the author brings together a little bit of her Rough Riders series and the hot, jujitsu allure in CAGED. Deacon McConnell has that Southern swagger that lures all the ladies in, including Molly Calloway whose main focus was initially kickboxing. But after meeting each other in class, it's clear that neither one wants to kick each other out of their lives.
After a misunderstanding that costs Deacon to lose his chance with Molly, he is now trying to grovel and make his way back into her life. However, if you've ever read a James novel before, then you know that her heroines aren't the most easy to forgive. This begins a sexy romp where Deacon has to prove his worth and it becomes a downright dirty competition to see who can resist the other the longest.
Lorelei James doesn't play around when it comes to getting dirty. CAGED is rife with sensual moments that will have you in a puddle by the time you are done. I especially feel like with the combination of that Southern swagger and sweetness from Deacon, no woman will be able to withstand him. This makes CAGED an absolute win for James as she once again proves what a talented writer she is.
In the searing fourth novel in the Mastered Series,
following Unraveled, only one woman can set a hardened
fighter free from his past.โฆ
In order to survive a life of tragedy, Deacon McConnell
embraced his roughest edges and learned to fight on the
streets. Then a life-changing jujitsu seminar led by
Sensei
Ronin Black led Deacon to become a professional fighter.
With his muscular physique and his body covered in tattoos
and scars, the MMA fighter defines mean, both on and off
the
mat.
But everything changes when innocent Molly Calloway signs
up
for his kickboxing class. Molly is Deaconโs opposite in
every way: Sheโs kind, sweet, thoughtful, and educated.
After a heated argument between them turns into a
passionate
encounter, Deacon realizes Molly is eager to experience
more, and she looks to him to take her to the darker edge
of
lust....
The last thing either of them expects is how deeply their
lives will be thrown upside down by the passion they find
together.
