**New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author, Vi Keeland, brings you the sexy story of Jax & Lily**

They say men like a lady in the living room and a whore in the bedroom. I never knew the sentiment was reciprocal. Until I met Jax Knight. A gentleman in public, a commanding, dirty talking rogue in the bedroom.

Daughter of legendary fighter “The Saint,” Lily St. Claire knows firsthand how fighters can be. As the owner of a chain of MMA gyms, she’s no stranger to aggressive, dominating, and possessive men. That’s why she’s always kept her distance. But the day Jax Knight walks through her door she’s captivated by his charm. Stunningly handsome, well mannered, Ivy League educated, and confident, he shatters all the preconceived notions she’d come to think were true about men who trained to fight.

But falling for someone so soon after her breakup wasn’t something she’d planned on. And definitely not something her ex plans to allow.

Review

Bravísimo sums this book up to a tea!
~Sharon, Kindle Friends Forever

Jax is a wonderful dichotomy, and this is the first time I can remember almost being jealous of a fictional character (Lily)!
~Lauren, Romance Novel Giveaways

This series is definitely Worth Reading.
~Bookchick Blog Reviews

The Epilogue solidified my love for Vi Keeland's work. It was perfection...

My Rating: 4½/5 stars
My Review:

Jax Knight just can’t escape the wretched that is his father, Preston Knight. Angry and tired of dodging the press, Jax has decided that the only way to get on with his life is to leave DC for a while and escape into the anonymity that is New York City. Quite aside from being Preston Knight’s son, Jax has his own life: he is a very successful businessman, he trains almost relentlessly for an MMA “career” and, he doesn’t lack for companionship should he choose to engage in such activities. Jax likes his life and his privacy but with the scandal that is his father and his father’s reprehensible behavior, Jax just can’t find what he needs in DC.

On the outside, Lily St. Claire has the perfect life: she is part owner of a successful chain of MMA training centers, Ralley’s Gyms; she is happily single; has a delightful best friend and; takes art classes when she’s not working at the gym. That’s the outside. What the world doesn’t see is Lily’s ongoing and intense sadness over the loss of her beloved father and her intense desire to be totally free of her controlling ex, Caden. While most girls have the luxury of walking out the door and being done with their ex, Lily’s ex is related to her business partner and an MMA fighter who trains in the gym Lily works in. As if to rub salt in the wound, Caden calls Lily incessantly, questions her every move and action and, can’t take the hint that they are well and truly over. Lily is generally too nice for her own good but even she knows the situation with Caden has got to change.

On the recommendation of his DC trainer, Jax checks out a Ralley’s Gym almost as soon as he gets to New York. The new gym is good, the trainer will work out fine and, the beautiful young lady at the front desk is not just beautiful but talented and intriguing as well. There are just a few problems: she has a detestable ex who won’t leave her alone and she keeps trying to convince Jax that she doesn’t date. Huh? Really? Then maybe she will just help out a guy new to the city and looking to escape the media. For Lily, Jax’s presence in her life is as unsettling as it is exciting. Jax is strong, sexy and, determined to get close to her and that determination only becomes stronger after just a few hours of hanging out with Lily and seeing how Caden behaves around her. Jax figures out quickly that Caden is bad news and not just for Lily personally but for her business as well. On many levels, Jax presence is comforting and exciting and sensual but, Lily knows his time in DC is limited and getting involved is dangerous.

The dance between Jax and Lily is all kinds of fun to watch. Where Jax is aggressive in a gentlemanly kind of way, Lily is hesitant yet curious. They are both all kinds of interested in each other and their banter is laced with both humor and innuendo. Getting Lily to trust him is of the utmost importance but Jax is keeping things from Lily that will most certainly cause her to tuck her tail and run. Adding to the pressure of the secrets is Caden who is a constant nuisance and an escalating threat to Lily and her safety. Needless to say, Jax just won’t stand for Caden and his behavior and as things heat up on every level, so does the animosity between the two men. Clearly, the animosity can only be solved in the cage and man, oh man, is that one raging fight 

The Bottom Line: Once again, Vi Keeland delivers a solid and entertaining read that has something for everyone. There is a steamy romance with more than a little cat and mouse, there is some excellent dick swinging between the boys, there are visits from past (favorite!) characters and, there is an excellent ending that ties up the entire series. Keeland is seemingly keeping this series short and sweet and as a result, the characters – both old and new – stay fresh and exciting. Both the short- and long-term plots are interesting and sexy with just the right amount of action. There is a fine selection of good and bad characters, all of which are fully developed and worth investing in. One of Keeland’s strengths is her dialogue whether it be quick and witty banter, arguments or, a dirty-talking sexy man. From beginning to end I was totally involved in this read and on the whole find it to be an excellent conclusion to what has become one of my favorite series.

He is so worth forgiving…

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 22, 2014

Verified Purchase

Jackson (Jax) Knight is the son of a senator that he no longer respects and is dealing with the repercussions of a scandal that his parent caused. He loves MMA and practices it, though not professionally as it’s not the occupation that the son of a senator should be involved in. He instead runs an investment firm. But the time has come for him to stop following what is appropriate in the public eye for his father and follow his heart which he does when an opportunity to invest in a chain of MMA gyms comes to his attention.

Lily St. Claire is owner of a chain of MMA gyms, a legacy from her father, a well renowned fighter who died a year ago. She grew up with the sport and is comfortable around fighters but she is looking for an investor who will keep her father’s dream alive and not turn the gyms into a sterile franchise.

This is the third book in the series that can be read as a stand-alone. This is the first time I have read this author and I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the writing. The story is not heavy into MMA compared to others I have read in the genre but centers around the budding relationship with a man who does MMA as a hobby and a woman who owns a chain of MMA gyms. The H and h are compelling characters that have emotional depth and a heated chemistry. We are given both their points of view. I loved the repartee between them and when they let loose they had a lot of fun together.

Jax is a wonderful hero, he’s refined and cultured due to his upbringing but he has a hard edge to him which he keeps under control. He epitomizes sexiness. He’s confident, protective, has a good heart and talks dirty in the bedroom. He goes after what he wants and upon meeting Lily she is his target.

Lily is a sassy heroine who is at times very vulnerable and allows situations to continue longer than necessary to avoid discord though this could be a result of her grief. She had a relationship with a fighter in her gyms who doesn’t accept their breakup and is now wary of becoming involved with someone else in her business. But the moment she meets Jax she knows she is in trouble for she is drawn to him in a way that she hasn’t been to anyone else. His gentlemanly ways and charming manners soon break down her defenses and watching him work out at her gym for hours every day just added to her longing.

But there are people who don’t want to see this couple together on both sides, games are played with them and mistakes are made that break them apart. But Jax is not a man to give up and he is so worth forgiving. I loved the epilogue.

What a fantastic series this has been

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 14, 2017

What a fantastic series this has been. I think Jax is the best of Nico and Vince, but by a very short margin. Lily is a very determined character, but is also a damsel in distress. Very much in need of protection from her recent ex,who is a bully, coward and despicable. Jax is none of these, but he too is trying to come to terms with recent revelations. Great to catch up with Nico and Elle, Vince and Liv, and HEA for all. Twist turns romance, lies, deceit and much more unravels in this novel. Need to have read the other two first though.

I thought like so many trilogies the stories couldn’t be as gripping as the first, then I thought that about the second, but they each were equally as captivating…..3 well linked and hugely enjoyable reads….you won’t be disappointed ❤️

Vi Keeland does it again. Jax and Lily's story was another roller-coaster ride of emotions. I always love the chemistry between her book characters. And I enjoyed how the book included Nico and Vince too. I know I'll re-read these books again in the future.
