But he soon learns that what he’s strived for means nothing in comparison to Mollie Andrews, the green eyed red head on the arm of his old friend. She takes his breath away at first sight.

This is the first book that I have read by Heather Allen. I can say that this isn't the last book that I will read by her. I really liked this book, I didn't love this book, but I liked this book alot. I enjoyed reading about Greylan's journey, going up through the levels to become a Pro MMA fighter. I felt his pain when he was trying to make a comeback. I also liked that he was very protective of his sister.
This book, I didn't read it straight through the night, I could put it down then come back to it, but I had to pick it back up within a few hours because I just had to know what was going to happen. There were parts to this book that I figured out without reading, but that doesn't giveaway the many twists and turns that Heather put into this book.
I am giving this book 4 kisses or 4 stars because I loved this book, but I was also, at times bored. There weren't many bored times, but there were a few that were slow.
Greylan has two love interests, the red head named Mollie, and Christina, the coworker from Juno's. I personally love him with Christina, she doesn't take any crap from anyone, and she can relate with Greylan somewhat. Mollie, comes and goes in his life, she is sporadic and has a hold on Greylan.
Throughout this book Greylan is fighting with his demons, he has nightmares, and can't get somethings out of his head.
Can Greylan overcome his demons? Can he be happy with his decisions? Read this book and find out! Heather writes like she sits ring side at the MMA fights, she is descriptive, and you read it like you are watching the fight on the TV. Pick up this book, you will not be disappointed!

This is the first book I have read by Heather Allen and I know that I will be reading more of her work. I enjoyed reading this book and connected with the characters. She grabs you from the beginning and makes you feel sorry for Greylan and the crappy cards he was dealt. But he refuses to let life get him down and fights (literally) for what he wants. Throw in a hot girl, sex and a scandal and this is book is complete. Heather Allen leaves you with a cliffhanger and promise of another book and I plan to see what happens to Greylan, and the corrupted life he has been thrown into.
