Violet Fuller has been through a lot in her short life.
After being viciously attacked, she’s hidden herself away from the world for the past five years, fearing everyone and everything. That’s until the day she finally gathers the courage to go outside.
Violet decides to take a job at Ash’s new gym, Pulse, to reacquaint herself with the male dominated world of MMA. She used to be her brother’s biggest supporter, going to all his matches and cheering him on. There’s no one he trusts more to help him run the admin side of his new business, but when Violet walks through the door for the first time, she sees someone she wasn’t expecting.
Handsome, AUFC fighter, Lincoln Hayes.
The same Lincoln Hayes that she’s had a crush on since she was sixteen.
All muscled, disciplined, hot as hell, six-foot two of him. He’s definitely not a boy anymore.
Things are about to become more difficult than Violet had hoped. So much for easing back into reality.
And Lincoln? He’s only got one thing on his mind.
How do you win over a woman who is afraid of everything?
Simple.
You fight.

~*~ Obsessed by Books arc given in exchange for an honest review ~*~
"In that split second, my heart felt like it was going to burst. I was in trouble. I already knew it, but I wasn't getting out of it..I was in lust with Lincoln Hayes for life without parole."
Snatching glimpses of Violet Fuller in previous books in The Beat and The Pulse series this is her time to step into the limelight. Little sister to the mighty Ash she has been used against him as she was his only weakest, having been raped by his rival and left to suffer the consequences. Valiantly trying to move past the pain and trauma of the past she is proud of her brother and all he has accomplished against the odds but yearns for her happily ever after. Trapped in her small bubble of safety Ash encourages to push herself and expand her perimeters. Together with the support of Ren and her counsellor Violet takes small steps towards conquering her all consuming fear...
A careless injury benches Lincoln from fighting so he returns home to rest and takes the opportunity to catch up with Ren and Ash now that things have settled for the pair. Just in time for the grand opening of Ash's new gym, they come to a mutually beneficial agreement. Linc agrees to help with the training sessions and Ash has a recognised fighter representing and promoting his gym. Eager to bump into Violet Linc is set to get to work! Caught up in emotions from years ago Linc still views Violet as the unobtainable...whilst she feels she is just too damaged to be the woman of his dreams.
This is a softer, more subtle read compared to the other books in the series. The tone reflects the main character personality...Violet is quietly under control on the surface and a hive of activity inside. Her underlying courage and strength is wonderful to read. Having suffered needlessly Violet has struggled to come to terms with her feelings of shame and horror. Haunted daily by the violent events and the heavy price both Ash and herself paid as a result Violet has decided to live and recapture her old self. Hope sparks to life just going in close proximity to her teenage crush, the woman she had the promise to be waking up from her slumber and fighting to emerge once more. The fight in this story is within Violet. Determined to make it to the last round Violet has set her sights on the prize - Lincoln. As always nothing is ever easy and Lincoln has suffered a few knocks to his head based on his lack of judgement in this story! Making stupid mistakes he has much to prove and a long way to go before he can keep his promise and help Violet learn to live again. I never thought hairspray could be so romantic! Will they, won't they? Can this bull headed pair overcome all the obstacles in their path?
A four and a half star 1...2...3 and you're out read.
