Broken: An Alpha Bad Boy MMA Romance by Simone Scarlet MMA

‘Broken’ is the powerful tale of two wounded people, finding healing in each other.

Silas

His last fight put super-heavyweight Silas Batras in a wheelchair – but he’d been ‘broken’ long before that.

Young, dumb and hungry, Silas had fled to America from Spain, chasing his dream of MMA stardom. But the price of that opportunity had become more than he could bare.

First, he’d wound up becoming a married woman’s plaything, just to pay his bills. Then he’d risked everything for his shot at the championship – and wound up nearly crippled, instead. Now he was alone, penniless, and learning to walk and fight again. His dream had become a nightmare.

But that was before Silas met HER – and suddenly, he had something real to fight for again.

Lyssa

Time and again, Lyssa Meadows had followed her heart into the wrong bed, and the wrong decisions – but this time, it had been especially devastating.

She’d been swept into a love affair with two men at once – or, at least, she’d thought it was love. Instead, Lyssa had wound up devastated – kicked to the curb like she was nothing.

Left at her very lowest – ashamed, lonely and scared – Lyssa thought she had nothing left to live for. But then she met Silas. A broken man, chasing a broken dream.

Could Lyssa be the one to build him back up? To rebuild his future, and put him back in touch with his past?

And could she find something true and meaningful in her own life, along the way?

Can two broken halves combine to make a beautiful whole?

Vividly set in the beautiful vineyards of Spain, the mean streets of New York, and the bright lights of Las Vegas, this 95,000 word novel tells the story of an MMA fighter seeking redemption, and a feisty young journalist looking for love.

Explicit, emotional and exciting, BROKEN is a full-length novel, and climaxes with a HEA and no cliffhanger. Enjoy!

About the author:

I take a lot of inspiration from Jilly Cooper and Fiona Walker, who did similar things with their books on equestrian sports, or life in the village of Oddwold. But I also take a lot of delight in writing in a fast-paced, masculine style mirroring Ernest Hemingway and Ian Fleming.

What inspired you to write your book?

I’m a passionate fan of mixed martial arts, and sexy, steamy romance. I was inspired to combine them in my stories!

Here is a short sample from the book:

Silas looked up from his chair, at the pretty young woman standing in the doorway.
She must have been in her early thirties, and she looked like those years had been pretty fast-paced. She was lean and rangy, in a conservative sweater and Sarah Palin glasses that didn’t cover up her rockabilly haircut or the tattoos on her wrists and neck.
“Salud,” Silas nodded at her.
“Hi,” the woman extended her slender hand. “My name’s Lyssa Meadows. I’m with the Herald Tribune.”
Silas shook her hand disinterestedly.
“I was just wondering if I could ask you some questions, before the fight.”
Batras narrowed his eyes.
Whoever this chick was, she’d been crying. Her nose was red, and her eyes were bloodshot. Her mascara looked like it was valiantly trying to hold its shit together, but he guessed one more sniffle, and she’d have it running down her cheeks like a panda bear.
For a moment, he felt like asking what the matter was. She was a pretty young woman, and he felt a natural urge to comfort her.
But then he snarled, and remembered what he was here to do.
Fight. Fight, and win.
Who gave a shit about this chick?
Nevertheless, he couldn’t help but wonder what was wrong…

    Heart Robber (Lifestyle by Design Book 2) by Miranda P. Charles @MirandaPCharles

    0 out of 5

    Jessa Allen knew she was plain and average. Yes, she was brainy and successful in her career as a senior writer for the popular Lifestyle by Design magazine, but she wasn’t a raving beauty who easily attracted hunky, gorgeous men like Rob Granger even if her well-meaning friends wanted her to believe she was. So when Rob asked her out, she was shocked. A seriously handsome man who had magnetism she couldn’t seem to escape wanted her. That wasn’t something that happened everyday.

    Rob Granger was instantly attracted to Jessa Allen. She wasn’t the usual type he went for but there was something alluring about her that drew him like a moth to a flame. But he was a self-confessed playboy who had absolutely no plans to be tied down by any woman. He valued his freedom, first and foremost and his expanding business was the only thing he was committed to. But he was intent on satisfying his intense desire for Jessa.

    They both didn’t want to fight their physical attraction for each other. But Jessa found herself falling for the man who could not promise her tomorrow. And Rob was set on only having a short fling with Jessa especially when they lived in different states – he in Melbourne and she in Sydney.

    Could Jessa trust herself not to fall apart when the time came to let Rob go? And could Rob ever find freedom in what he considered as a prison to be avoided at all cost?

    Good Vibration by S M Mala

    0 out of 5

    Sylvie works in an e-commerce company, ‘Good Vibration’, specializing in the distribution of adult toys. She’s surrounded by colorful people as well as interesting items she refuses to use.

    The place has been her lifeline, even though it’s made out of silicone and plastic, for two and a half years as she still tries to come to terms with the devastation of losing of her husband while bringing up their daughter, alone.

    Her world is turned upside down when her work partner collapses and his stepson, Finlay, comes in to sort out the business, which his family own.

    The consummated snob isn’t impressed with it and wants it to shut it down. He finds the product and people distasteful … and it shows. And he has his own problems, as his beautiful French wife has just told him she’s pregnant but he might not be the father.

    Determined to keep the place open, against someone fixed on closing it down, the pair fight tooth and nail to achieve what they want, both poles apart on how they see the world and why.

    But could opposites really attract?

    Or is it that they want to be with that person, but all for the wrong reasons?

    It’s about finding unexpected love in the most extraordinary place when faced with every possible obstacle to stop having a ‘Good Vibration’.
