Retired SBC Champion Simon Evans has earned his reputation
as one of the best fighters, best trainers and as a man of
integrity. After Simon catches his longtime girlfriend
cheating on him, he moves out and makes the decision to
return to fighting. Convincing his best friend and fellow
fighter, Havoc, to be his trainer, Simon sets into
training. That is until the day a leggy woman enters Dean's
training gym in Harmony, Kentucky, and asks to speak to
Simon. Dakota Dream's arrival definitely interrupts Simon's
training.
Dakota Dream's stepfather has demanded that she find Simon
Evans. Using her investigative skills, she's tracked him
down for her stepfather, who claims he's Simon's father.
Finding Simon, otherwise known as Sublime, wasn't hard;
Dakota is an avid SBC fan. She's immediately attracted to
Simon, and even after he refuses to meet his father, Dakota
hangs around the gym. She has to convince Simon to meet the
man. Her stepfather has something she wants badly, and if
she doesn't convince Simon to see his biological father,
her seedy stepfather will destroy it. The longer Dakota
stays in Harmony, the more she doesn't care about the past.
She's fallen in love with Simon.
Simon can't get his mind off Dakota. He imagines a hot body
under her non-flattering baggy clothes. Jealousy builds as
men from her past show up in Harmony. Dakota knows how to
fight; she has self-defense training. Simon arranges for
some of his best friends, other SBC fighters, to teach her
better moves and keep an eye on her after someone pushes
her down some stairs.
Simon pulls away when he discovers Dakota's secrets before
she has a chance to tell him herself. Team comes into play
as the plot heats up and friends form the line to defend
Dakota from her past.
Lori Foster dishes up some dreamy guys in SIMON
SAYS. Some are well-known from her previous Harmony story,
CAUSING HAVOC. She introduces us to a few new men I'd love
to read about in future stories. Foster knows how to mix
strong-willed male and female characters together for some
heated chemistry. A great summer read!
Sexy ex-fighter Simon Evans has the perfect life-until he
catches his girlfriend cheating. To work off his rage, he
goes back into the ring full-force. But a gutsy and
gorgeous P.I. is about to send him reeling with a secret
about his family-and one about her heart.
