In her Loveswept debut, Sidney Halston turns up the heat as a sexy cage fighter shows a former bookworm how delicious a few rounds between the sheets can be.
For Chrissy Martin, returning to her Florida hometown always seems to bring bad luck. The day starts with a breakup text, followed by a jailhouse phone call from her troublemaker brother. Now a routine traffic stop has ended with her accidentally punching an officer . . . in a delicate place. Then Chrissy realizes that the hot cop on the receiving end of her right hook is none other than the man from her teenage fantasies.
Jack Daniels knows how to take a hit. After all, when he’s not chasing reckless drivers, he’s kicking ass in a mixed martial arts ring. So what takes his breath away isn’t the low blow, but the woman who dealt it: a gorgeous knockout with legs Jack wouldn’t mind being pinned under—who just so happens to be his best friend’s nerdy little sister, all grown up. Soon their instant chemistry leads to a sizzling affair, but Jack and Chrissy are fighting an uphill battle if they want to make love last beyond the final bell.

Against the Cage by Sidney HalstonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was actually a really hot, very good book! I thoroughly enjoy these fighter books. I was slightly annoyed with Chrissy's character. She didn't listen and it kept putting her in danger or trouble. But, I can understand from the hard headedness of her and Slade that it's just who the author was making her to be.
The beginning of the book had me giggling right off the start line. It was witty, and certainly hooked the reader in.
Jack was hot, amazing, sexy and well, hot! What I wouldn't give for a man like that! He was great, well written and I think an all around good guy. He was tough when he needed to be, soft at other times, just a great character. The plot was interesting and kept you turning the pages. I would love to see which of the boys will get the next book.
