Synopsis:

Sometimes we have to go through the dark to reach the light.

Whenever he steps into the octagon, heavyweight champion Gabriel Maddox is focused on one thing, and one thing alone: destroying the man in front of him with calm, devastating precision. He’s controlled in everything he does, but it’s not a control that comes easily. It’s born out of pain and survival—out of necessity. Dominating in the octagon, and dominating in bed, Gabe is a man who gets what he wants. And when he lays eyes on journalist Megan Sinclair, he wants her.

From the moment Megan meets Gabe, she knows there’s something different about him. Something hiding behind all of that calculated control. His commanding, dominating nature sparks a need in her, opening her eyes to desires she didn’t know she had. She wants to know what it would feel like to be at his mercy. To give herself over to him, even if it’s only for one night.Megan brings out an insatiability in Gabe, and he knows one night isn’t enough. Against his better judgement, he breaks his rules for her as his control starts to slip. Where she’s Beauty, he’s the Beast, and he doesn’t think she can handle the dark needs he harbors. Needs involving her submission and his twisted fantasies. But Megan craves what he’s offering, sending them both down a dangerous path.

Take Down is the second book in the Blood and Glory series. This novel can be read as a standalone. One thing I am absolutely loving about this series is the fact that it gets better with each book (and there has only been two books so far…. these men…I tell you! )

Gabe ‘The Sandman’ Maddox a man who needs no introduction but highly deserves one! This man is fierce, domineering, and sexy as all hell! Let’s not forget he’s also a sweetheart underneath all of that alpha fighter hotness!

After losing everything he loved, Gabe submerges himself in the world of MMA. He fights to keep his demons at bay. He fights because he feels like it’s the only thing he has left. That is until he meets a kind-hearted reporter, Megan.

Megan is a journalist who’s world is finally starting to look up. When she gets assigned to write a series of articles on MMA and the fighters behind the sport she finds herself intrigued by Champion fighter Gabe.

Gabe and Megan’s chemistry is OFF THE CHARTS. From the very first interaction I was rooting for these two. I was captivated from the start. I loved these two characters as separates and as a couple. I was honestly blown away by this story.

I am a huge fan of MMA so of course I love romance novels that center around the sport. I was surprised at how much MMA was actually in this novel. It was fun to read about Gabe’s strict routines. I loved that aspect of the novel. It actually felt like I was watching a real fighter’s life play out.

I am sooooo looking forward to the next book in this series! Eeek… That little snippet has me on edge and impatiently waiting!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SERIES!
