It's an explosive start for these two, who don't bother with words of seduction or empty promises. When they first meet each other at a fight, they make plans to see each other later and this is where the sexual chemistry between the two explodes into a free-for-all fire.
One of the issues I had with Porter's writing before was that there wasn't enough emotional involvement between the characters, nor was there enough backstory. However, Porter immediately addresses that from the beginning, creating a plot that I think works well in bringing the hero and heroine together in a believable manner. While I do think that there should be more focus on the seduction and chemistry between the characters, I will say that I enjoyed the straight-shooting dialogue even if it lessened the passion a little bit.
Porter's writing style has always been crude over cautious. This means that BARE KNUCKLE is a full-throttle ride from start to finish. It's deliciously explicit details is guaranteed to ignite the fire within readers.
Book Summary
Skin deep is never deep enough.
Vegas Top Guns, Book 5
After a near-fatal plane crash, fighter pilot Captain Eric “Kisser” Donaghue is a changed man. By day he labors to regain his confidence in the cockpit. By night he moonlights as an off-Strip boxer, fighting for prize money to pay for his younger brother’s third stint in rehab.
In the ring, no one cares he once had a face that launched a thousand one-night stands—and neither does Eric. He’s only there to win. Yet he can’t take his eyes off the new ring girl, a glitz-meets-pageant-queen vision of blonde perfection.
Down on her luck but not quite out, Vegas showgirl Trish Monroe lives for the spotlight. The scarred, steely-eyed loner who stares at her from his corner of the ring gives Trish an extra reason to strut her stuff.
Curiosity and the temptation of a no-strings good time bring them together. The discovery of their secret fetishes—she likes to show off, he likes to watch—turns mere sexual chemistry into a fiery exploration of matched passions. They’re a natural fit. Trust in love, however, is harder to earn than trust in bed, especially when this beauty and beast hide even from themselves.
Warning: This book contains a Sin City-style Beauty and the Beast love story, lots of naughty pics and vids, adrenaline-pumped base jumping, and a set of very important note cards. Oh, and as always, an incredibly hot fighter pilot.
