I received this book from the author for an honest opinion\/Review.<\/p>\n

I am a GIANT fan of this author and read everything she has.\u00a0 SO when She sent this older series to me, I jumped to read.<\/p>\n

This is the prequal story to explain Chloe and Max from book 1.\u00a0 If you haven\u2019t red the series, like me, I suggest starting here too.\u00a0 However, you could read it at any point.<\/p>\n

This story introduces us to Max, his girlfriend Tori, his best friend Quinn and his trainer Chuck.\u00a0 It seems Max is on the track to become a pro-MMA fighter.\u00a0 He enjoys fighting but also really wants to finish his degree to be a fitness trainer.<\/p>\n

The story is a quick look into what drives Max to go from fighter to trainer\/coach.\u00a0 We see what happens to him and changes his path of life.<\/p>\n
