Posted October 19, 2014 by Shannon in Reviews / 0 Comments

18698559After a night of raw passion with the man Claire O’Briene had been secretly admiring for years, she thought their time together had come once and for all. Fate had finally brought them back to each other, but unfortunately nothing had changed. He was still the same man who ran away from relationships. Against his better judgment, Mason Bradley gave in to the temptation and allowed himself one night with the one woman he’d been too afraid to want … too afraid to need.

Six months after leaving Claire and regretting every minute of it, Mason gets called in for an undercover mission that’s not only dangerous, but brings back a past he spent years trying to forget. A past of fighting … of getting in the ring and using his fists to get what he wanted: money, women, and drugs. Now there are fighters turning up dead, and it’s Mason’s job to find out the truth.

Knowing he might not come out of the mission alive, Mason seeks out Claire to tell her how he truly feels, only to find another man competing for her love as well. Fighting is what he’s good at, and for once he will be fighting not only for justice … but for love.

Reviewer’s Thoughts

MEANT FOR ME is an enthralling, intense story that kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish.Β  Mason is a former mixed martial arts fighter who now works as a policeman.Β  Β He’s thrust back into the fighting world when he finds out his best friend has been murdered.Β  Β Someone is brutally killing fighters and leaving no clues and Mason desperately wants to find them before they kill someone else.Β  Mason decides to go undercover as a fighter hoping to discover who murdered his best friend, who was trying to make a name for himself in the fighting world.Β  I was chewing my fingernails reading this story, because I was never sure who the bad guys were and constantly worried Mason would be their next target.Β 

Mason and Claire have known each other for years and there’s always been an attraction simmering between them, but Mason prefers to keep his distance. Β Mason is a womanizer and afraid of commitment, but he has never been able to forget Claire.Β  Claire helps Mason work on the case and as they try to discover who the killer is, their relationship heats up.Β  Mason is all alpha male, but also a wonderful caring person and I love how he treats Claire.Β  I found it easy to like both Mason and Claire because they are both loyal, trustworthy people trying to do the right thing. Β Claire cares about Mason and supports him in any way she can.Β  What a wild ride.

I am a lover of alpha males with dirty mouths, strong heroines putting alpha males in their place, and the Chicago Blackhawks. I'm a proud hockey mom who can often be found at the hockey rink cheering on my favorite forward, with my kindle close by.
