“Who knew a bad boy could mend a broken heart?”

What does a girl do after she discovers her fiancé is a cheating bastard?

In my case, I performed the ritual implosion of all scorned women. I drowned my sorrows in cases of white wine, wallowed in gallons of ice cream, and ignited a bonfire to burn away every damn remnant of his existence. Six months later, the only result was a permanent impression of my ass on the couch.

Adventure Dating my friends dared.
A new and exciting opportunity they said.

I thought they were crazy, but I’m not one to back down from a challenge, so I signed up for the entire four-week deal.
That’s where I saw HIM. Lucas Cummings. He isn’t the classic rich boy I usually end up with. The one whose idea of working up a sweat is waiting for his margarita to be served beachside. Nope. He’s a rough and tough bad boy that all fathers warn their daughters about. You know the type. Cocky swagger, chiseled jaw—the ‘V’.

SOLD, I said to myself, until I discovered he was so much more than just a BOXER.

Left Hook.
Right to the heart.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Hooked on the Boxer is Piper Rayne’s second novel but I believe that have set a standard for themselves and not only did they meet it, but the surpassed it. This novel really kept me engaged throughout, I laughed, I swooned my heart broke. And I’m so glad that I got to hang with everyone else that we met in the first book even if I felt the need to gouge out eyeballs a time or two!

I honestly thought after reading the first book that I wouldn’t enjoy Thalia’s story because she is so OCD and anal about things. She still was but being inside her head really helped endear her to me.

“Lucas is the exact opposite of anyone I’ve ever wanted, but damn if I wouldn’t mind him showing me exactly how a woman should feel.”

Lucas is just dreamy, but you aren’t really sure how to feel about it because he’s kinda shady at times.

“I fell in love with you and I was scared shitless that you wouldn’t accept me this part of my past.”

Hooked on the Boxer truly surprised me with the conflict. I figured it would be one thing, but boy was I wrong, and is there anything better than being wrong about the ending of a book? I hate when stories become predictable.  You will enjoy seeing Talia come out of her shell and watch her and Lucas fall in love.
