Winter Travers has done it once again , not only is Black Belt Knockout my favorite in the powerhouse series Sage and Roman are the best couple along with them being the front runner for most loved hero and heroine ( let me tell you there was some pretty tough competition because I adore all these couples ) .This can be read as a standalone but I do recommend this series along with the authors other series’s , with the little shock at the end of Black belt love I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Sage and Roman story I’ve been waiting for these two since they were introduced and wasn’t disappointed with how it turned out . Sage has been through so much we knew a little about her history but to know more about what she had to face just made me admire her even more with her selflessness Sage is a wonderful mother , funny , sassy , yes we get more of her hilarious hate hate relationship with Dante , and she’s doesn’t fall under annoying heroines that go through a situation like this . Roman was known as the lifer bachelor with a list of his conquests and super cocky until he is given a shock he didn’t see coming from a woman he couldn’t get his mind off of , he’s so swoon worthy / pantie melting , knows how to handle his stick I mean BO (wink) , super funny, protective , and the way he is with the heroines son was beautiful . They are perfect for one another with off the charts sexual tension , naughty sex scenes , and hilarious banter . I loved everything about Black Belt Knockout the story line made me fall even more for the characters while also seeing how the couples are doing the epilogue was bittersweet because this being the last one in the Powerhouse series but I’m hoping it wont be the last we see of these amazing characters hopefully a next gen of Ninjas (wink) . Winter Travers is one of my favorite authors and I can’t wait to read more by her you all defiantly need to get your one click fingers ready you wont regret getting into this series .

I’m a huge fan of Winter Travers’ writing and I was incredibly eager to read Roman and Sage’s story after the bombshell that was dropped in Black Belt in Love. Black Belt Knockout is the fourth title in the Powerhouse M.A. series, and the final book of the series, but it can be read as a standalone.
Going into this title, Roman’s reputation precedes him, anyone familiar with the series will be expecting a cocky, arrogant, selfish, immature, eternal bachelor. Much to my surprise we find that this alpha douche is quite enigmatic and when needed he steps up to the mat, he shows his true self. He’s fun, protective, kind, caring, thoughtful and very loving.
Although Sage has made frequent appearances in the previous titles, not a lot was revealed of her character or her past, other than her fun, spunky and sassy personality. She’s an endearing, strong single mother, who has issues with trust and has lost her belief in love.
The sexual tension between this pair just oozes off the page. Their chemistry and attraction is intense, passionate and undeniable. The love scenes they share are hot, steamy and sexy. The banter between not only Roman and Sage, but side characters as well is argumentative, fun, flirty and full of humor laced one liners.
I loved that we had cameo appearances from all the #KarateHotties and the epilogue was incredibly lovely but also bittersweet.
Overall Black Belt Knockout was my favorite of this series, which surprised me as throughout the series, Roman was my least favourite character, but he definitely grew on me as his true colours shone through. If you are looking for a sweet, sexy, swoon-worthy romance with equal parts heat, heart and steam look no further. As I’ve come to expect from Winter this title is well written, entertaining and completely engaging with plenty of moments that had me laughing out loud. I will be eagerly awaiting more of Winter’s titles.
AMAZING!!! Wow! She has done it again! This book was awesome!
Loved Sage and Roman together. They may not of planned on a future together but the chemistry they have is undeniable. The way Roman is with Sam as well as Sage warmed my heart. What girl can deny a man who goes all out for her son? Loved the book! Cannot wait for comes next from Winter Travers!
This is the final book in the Powerhouse MA series and it has ended with a complete knockout. Roman the player will storm into your heart and show you that underneath his gi there is more to this man than the cocky, selfish and sometimes immature guy that we have always seen. One night of unexpected fireworks and passion between Roman and Sage leaves a lifetime commitment between these two that neither of them expect. As life delivers a surprising punch Roman decides he needs to step up to keep the three people in his life that have now become important to him. Their story is one of growth, facing the past and moving forward and realizing love with the right person changes everything in your world for the better. Roman and Sage’s story is steamy, passionate, hilarious, inspirational and romantic. Black Belt Knockout ends this absolutely fantastic series perfectly but I will miss these badass ninjas and the women they fell in love with. P.S. not sure if it was Roman or Sam who stole my heart in this book, I’m thinking it might have been both.
