A girl who has secrets of her own.
One love that they'll both have to fight for.
Nicky Ragusa lives his life inside the cage, circuiting the underground ring to escape his fate as the mafia prince. When Jackie Marks crashes into his life, he’ll take the fight outside the cage.
But the battle for Jackie’s heart comes with a steep price. Nicky’s father has wanted him to take over the family business for years, and the time for running is over. Now Nicky is right where his father has always wanted him: in the middle of a war.
All Nicky has ever wanted to do was fight. Now all he has to do is fight for her.
I loved the blurb for this book... I was interested because he was a fighter (I have loved Travis Maddox for years and am always looking for the best new book boyfriend) and I thought this could be a combination of Sempre and Real, mob meets fighter and the sparks should fly.
I liked Nicky's family...
I really wanted to love this book, but I just didn't. There was something seriously missing for me. Something about the connection between Nicky and Jackie...something about Jackie all together...something about it just never felt right or complete to me.
I would add the extra 1/2 star because I did finish it, but honestly I think this could have been a remarkable book if we had gotten a little more depth to the characters. I just needed something more. In a market that is currently saturated with stories, I need something that makes me feel, and this story just didn't do that for me.
