She hates him, yet she can’t get him out of her mind.
Female Bantamweight fighter, Gabriella Reynolds, has a bad habit of falling for forbidden fighters. Enter Paxton Emerson. He’s tall, tattooed, and the current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion. Everyone wants a piece of him, and he only has eyes for her. Through no choice of her own, she’s fallen in his debt and he’s now demanding payment. Too bad it doesn’t involve currency. Gabby’s decision to fulfill her promise to him ultimately brings out her true feelings, but also spurs the unwanted attention of another.
Rage’s fixation on his newest obsession reaches dangerous levels. Unfortunately, Paxton Emerson has become a roadblock to his end goal and needs to be removed from the equation—by any means necessary.
Gabby will do anything to save Pax, but what happens when she’s the one who needs saving?
Good. Lord. I love this book. It wasn't a surprise though, the last book I read by LP Dover was a five star read as well.
There's something to be said about an author who can create such a unique story and make it work. And that's exactly what LP Dover does. Every single time.
Paxton's Promise starts off where Ryley's Revenge left them, which completely excited me because I was waiting to find out the story behind Gabby and Paxton. The two of them have more sexual tension than you could imagine, and enough tender moments to make you weak at the knees. But the best part? Every page you read, there's some sort of twist, and a ton of clues, leading you to the plot twist that you would never guess. And I love that! The ending blew me away, and it'll do the same to you. I don't think I could have loved this out of the box story line anymore!
Oh, and the characters might actually he some of my favorites. I mean really. They are amazing.
Gabriella is the most bad ass woman ever. I mean, she embodies the kind of bad assery that I wish I had. She's a hard ass, she's strong, and just all around awesome. She makes me envious that I'm not her. I know, I have a problem. And Paxton is just yummy. He's a bad boy with a heart of gold. And he's hot. Hot. Hot. But on top of it all, he really is devoted, and he leaves you rooting for him the entire book. There isn't a moment where you think to yourself "is he good enough?" or "wow he's an asshole" and to me that's just amazing. I love that within the book there's only a love-love relationship between the reader and the characters.
Honestly I think that I will love every one of LP Dover's books, and will forever five star everyone of them. I cannot wait for the next installment!
