I have a weakness for country boys .. what can I say
I loved Mack’s shy introvert personality and clumsy clutsy ways. I especially loved the comparison of her to a newborn calf .. the country theme rang through by using that.
I thought the issue with Trick’s father was heartbreaking yet so realistic.. so many men don’t want to or don’t know how to show, let alone share, their feelings .. I may not have ugly cried but tears were shed .. most men that I’ve grown up and lived around are so much like this .. they think showing feelings is a sign of weakness
I loved how HJ Bellus continued using Jag’s character to insert humor .. there’s never a dull moment with Jag that’s for sure.
I loved how they met – the fact that they were both looking beyond the here and now and planning for their future regardless of their past or current situations
The theme of #HeartFireDesire continues to ring through in this #DiablosThroneMMA series
OMG!! I loved this book! Trick was absolutely amazing and the love he has for Mack is incredible. I thought that Trick was a decent guy in the other books, but now…. WOW! He exceeded my expectations! I couldn’t put this book down. And of course, it was awesome to see the cameos from Jag and Cruz, as well as, Layla and Sunni! So phenomenal! Another AMAZING book by HJ!!
A country boy with a fighter’s heart and a caring soul. That’s Trenton “Trick” Jameson. Timid, scared, just wanting to stay in the shadows, yet flourish in the light of her heart. That’s Mackenzie “Mack” Graham. When these two collide…literally, there is no stopping Trick from getting Mack’s attention and keeping it.
The third book in the Diablo’s Throne MMA Series will take you by storm as much as Cruz and Jag have. Trick isn’t the typical bad boy and more gentle in nature, but don’t let that full you as he still hits hard and fast.
Trick and Mack warmed my heart throughout the book and the story slowly pulled me in without my even noticing. I love it when I’m so captured by what I’m reading that the characters themselves maintain my attention with such fluidity, it’s like I’m living in that exact moment with them. There is nothing more magical than feeling like I can go to Washington and walk into Diablo’s Throne MMA Gym and I will see the guys and their women. That’s how I felt with the entire series and I’m so excited that it hasn’t changed with Trick.
Continue the fight with Trick and you’ll get glimpses of our faves and fall in love with the new!
This is another fantastic book by H.J. Bellus! Falling in love with Trick and Mack, was as easy as breathing. Mack was riddled with insecurity and anxiety and Trick was a fighter with a heart of pure gold. Watching him defend her during the first day of class just melted my heart. From that moment, I was in their corner. I loved how Trick looked at his Mack-A-Bee and saw something, even when the others were making fun of her. And Mack just blossomed while she was with him. This is a book that I will definitely put in my re-read category.
The men of Diablo’s Throne just keep getting better and better!
Trick is the perfect mix of sweet, protective country boy and alpha MMA fighter. I fell head over heals for him.
My heart ached for Mack and I couldn’t help but want her to find her happy. Mack and Trick are perfect for each other and I could not get enough of them. I absolutely loved every second of this story.
Bellus has a way of writing you right into the story. With Trick she had me giggling one minute and an ache in my chest the next. And of course I was super excited to see a bit more from the other Diablo’s Throne family!
Another amazing read from Bellus! I can’t wait to see what she brings us next!
OMG… I absolutely love the Diablo’s Throne series! With each story, the series just gets better and better! Trick may very well be my fave story in this series though! This story takes you on one heck of a ride emotionally. I laughed my a$$ of in some places, felt a crazy, overprotective anger in others; but most of all was overwhelmed (as usual) by all the love that was shared not with just Trick and Mack; but with the rest of the Diablo’s Throne crew as well. Reading this series is like visiting with old friends and family.
HJ Bellus never disappoints with her writing and I can’t wait to see where she takes us next!
I didn’t want to put this book down. I have loved this MMA series from the start!!!
Trick & Mack are both hurting & broken & set in their ways. But from their very first encounter, there is a connection they both can’t deny & while they are both fearful of putting themselves out there, they just seem to be drawn to each other.
You won’t to put this book down either!!! While this can be read as a standalone book, I highly recommend you read the other 2 in the series & reading in order is best but not required.
I have definitely fell in love with the Diablo’s Throne family! I think Thrick definitely dominated the Alfa role and also the emotional romantic one. This book pulled emotions from me one by one. Mack had my whole heart from the begging. She is a beautiful spirit inside and out !
Absolutely loved Trick’s story. The Country Boy Brawler is amazing and meant to be an MMA fighter. On the flip side, he is gentle and caring. Enter Mack, and Trick is exactly what she needs to help break her out of her shell. Loved watching her change and grow. Love this series and can’t wait for the next one!
Trick may very well be my favorite from Diablo’s Throne gym.
Trick, the Country Boy Brawler, knew ranching was never where he wanted to be. After being forced out of his parents house by his mom to follow his dreams, he never looked back. That doesn’t mean he never thought about it, but never wanted to return.
Mack is a clumsy, introvert who literally falls into Tricks lap the first day of class. And this woman has him intrigued from the very beginning, never can get the thought of her out of his head. So slowly but surely he cracks that shell and tries to show Mack there is so much more to life that always looking down.
Little by little Mack is shown how to live and love, and that family can be everything to a person, even when they aren’t looking for one.
This sweet, loving, emotional story shows how two people who are very different in what they need still need each other.
I love that Trick made me feel like I was reading the old works of HJ Bellus; the small towns, ranchers and rodeos took me back! Thanks HJ for the nostalgic reflection!
Trick is just gentlemanly at times, “when we are together, I pay. No exceptions. You’re not going to argue. It’s the way I was raised. ” I kiss her sweet, cherry-flavored lips.” Trick has inform his woman on some things, “you can’t be considered a farm boy’s or cowboy’s girlfriend if you haven’t romped around in the hay a few times.” I loved this book, I loved Trick he was protective and caring.
As you open the pages of this book you will be instantly wrapped up in a bear hug by the magic that surrounds Trenton “Trick” Jameson. Being the MMA champion fighter that he is, Trick will always be moves ahead of you so you will never see it coming as he sweeps you off your feet. As Mack stumbles into Trick’s world it will be the toughest fight of his life as he tries to bring this beautiful soul out of the shadows and into the bright lights of the living. This couple will discover that true love and real family will always be your loyal supporters. HJ Bellus will drag every emotion from you with this 3rd book in the Diablo’s Throne MMA series. You will laugh, smile, cry, be heartbroken but best of all this story will leave your heart so full of happiness it will feel like you will burst.
What a great continuation of the Diablo’s Throne MMA series. I loved Trick and everything that he is about. There are some stories that just grab you and make you not want to let the characters go and this is one of them. I wanted more! It follows Trick and how he gets into MMA and how Mack literally falls into his lap one day in class. Can he break her out of her shell and show her how to live and love. Emotional, heartwarming and suck-you-in type of read. One you won’t want to put down and will keep you wanting more of these MMA fighters. I loved every single page of this book. A must read book and series.
