Rick "Ricochet" Brennan served eight years as an elite Marine special ops Force Recon soldier. After an injury, and the terrible memories from that night, he retires and goes to work for his former Command Officer, Howard "Mack" McEvoy, at his training center in Atlanta.
Sanctum MMA appears on the surface to be a normal gym, training elite fighters to be the best. Except each trainer, hand-picked by Mack, possesses a special background that allows Mack to run one of the best-kept secrets in the country.
When twenty-three year old Quinn Wallace finally escapes her abusive husband, she turns to her father’s old Marine Corps buddy, Mack, for help. Broken and skittish, Quinn finds herself surrounded by large, intimidating men— men who could easily overpower her. She avoids them the best she can, but when Rick turns out to be more than just a rough fighter with bruised knuckles, she finds herself wondering if she can allow herself to trust again.
Read the final conclusion to the Ricochet Series!

“Hey,” he said calmly. “Why aren’t you resting?” Rick put his hands on her shoulders, gently massaging her arms.
Quinn’s eyes grew large and went to his gloved hands.
Fuck, she hates fighting. Now I know why she looks freaked out.
Rick yanked his hands away and took a step back. “I didn’t mean for you to see me fight, Quinn. I’m sorry.”
To his surprise, Quinn stepped forward, closing the distance Rick had put between them. He watched as she hesitantly lifted her arms, placing her hands on his sweat-slicked chest. Her eyes met his and his breath left in a sharp huff. The fear he had expected to see wasn’t there. No… Quinn’s eyes were dark and glistening with lust.
“I didn’t know that watching you fight would be so comforting. It makes me feel safe, and… turned on,” she murmured. Rick shivered as her hands ran down his torso, moving over each defined muscle until they were resting on either side of his waist.
“Turned on?” Rick swallowed, barely able to speak with Quinn touching him like that. She was only just about healed from the attack. He figured it would be months, if not longer before she’d be interested in pursuing anything physical.
“Yes, turned on.” Quinn’s fingers dug into Rick’s waist, her thumbs making small circles on the ‘v’ shaped ridges of his lower abs. Scorching waves of pleasure rippled down his spine, instantly making his cock come to life.
“Jesus,” he muttered softly. Using every last bit of willpower he had, Rick captured Quinn’s wrists, removing her hands from his body. “Not here, doll.” He glanced around, but none of the other fighters were looking their way. Still, he’d kill them if they saw the lust in Quinn’s eyes. That was for him, and him alone.
Quinn pouted, crossing her arms and glaring like a kid denied her favorite candy.
He couldn’t help himself. The sight of this tiny thing trying to look intimidating was funny. Rick laughed. “You’re too much, doll.” The corner of her mouth twitched up—it was just a hint of a smile, but it made Rick’s day. Quinn hadn’t smiled once since his team rescued her. Seeing some of her personality coming back flooded him with emotion.

Ricochet: Friendly Fire
.jpg)
Ricochet- Extraction Point is the third and final book in this series and boy oh boy did it give you a thrill. I would rate this book a 4 stars and definitely recommend the whole series to others. These are not standalone books they do need to be read in order-- Locked & Loaded, Friendly Fire, and then Extraction Point. This will be a short and sweet review because I don't want to give away any teasers.. so if you want a book that is full of action and intense romance between Rick and Quinn you need to pick up this series. I was so happy with the ending but it definitely still left me wanting more. Rick has a way with words and actions that will melt your panties and make you swoon big time. There is some heartache in this series too but it help build the story to what it is and I am grateful to read such a wonderful story. Hopefully if you are reading this review you have read the other books that have both ended in pretty intense cliff hangers so to finally get an ending for these 2 was simply amazing. Thanks for a great ride and giving us Rick Aka Ricochet and I will be looking out for more from this author in the near future, I have become a huge fan! Get to one-clicking Divas you will not be disappointed!

Ricochet: Extraction Point is the heart stopping, thrill chasing conclusion to the Ricochet Series. All of the questions that had the reader wondering at the end of the first and second book come to a head and are concluded in this final installment. This book was a 3.5 star read for me and I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves reading about alpha male military men and the woman who complete them and maybe even succeed in making them slightly soft.
Right when Rick thinks that he has everything that he has always wanted, things with Quinn are finally on the right track and he is doing better with the demons that haunt him, the unthinkable happens. Quinn never arrives at her appointment with the divorce attorney and glancing upon the scene like only military trained men can do, they can see that she put up a struggle in the parking lot. Quinn has a protector in every single guy that Rick works with and is part of Mac's team and they take it personally that someone messed with one of their own. It is unfortunately that all of Quinn's secrets had to be brought to the surface by someone other than her, but information was necessary in order to find and rescue her.
Rick is frightened that he will never see Quinn again, that this rescue mission will have some of the same outcomes that the mission that earned him an honorable discharge did and he will never hold her in his arms again. Trying his best to keep his emotions in check its all he can do to make sure that Quinn is safely back in his arms where she belongs? But will she ever really be safe? Or will she always be looking over her shoulder for the rest of her life never really moving on from her abusive husband? You will have to read this book to find out.

I love hot, sexy romance novels, but hate long, drawn out misunderstandings as a plot line.
I love book series, but hate cliffhangers.
I love alpha males, but hate when they borderline on abusive.
Mostly? I love love love chocolate.
