When a man like Hammer nails you, he nails you hard.My corrupt cop ex-boyfriend and his thugs tried to hurt me, but one man stood in their way.Hammer. That’s what his old military buddies call him, and after a night with him I can see why.He’s a trained killer turned MMA fighter, and everything he does in life, he does hard. In the ring, he hits hard. In bed, well… what he does there is hard … well… what he does there is hard too. Long and hard.
It will take more than muscle and guns to get me out of the trouble I’m in… but muscle and guns sure won’t hurt. I just hope he’s ready to give it to the bad guys half as hard as he gives it to me.
Publisher’s Note: Hammer includes spankings and sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Loki Renard is able quickly to set different scenes as she jumps from one book to another. In this book the characters awkwardly come together and with instant heat, add a quick twist and then they are on the run
A quick short read
Interesting characters, brutal justice, and then on the run. The story is then ‘will they get caught’ when all they want are the simple things “Warmth. Food. Shelter. Friends. Someone to carry you when you can’t walk another step. Someone to fight off evil when it comes to your door”…. plus a little heat

Somewhat of an HEA.

Jazz finally talks to Jake when she sees how beat up he looks one night. She follows him to his apartment and he tells her to wait for him while he gets cleaned up. Jake has been interested in her but she never acted like she wanted anything to do with him. So they talk for a bit before giving into temptation and sleeping together. Just as they were about to fell asleep someone breaks his front door down. He has her wait for him and goes to handle it. Turns out Jazz hasn’t been completely honest with Jake and her past has burst through his front door. She was involved with a dirty cop that tried to force her to have sex with his friends. However Jazz refused and broke up with him but he has made her life hell since then by ticketed her car and impounding it when she didn’t have the money to afford the fines. She thought it was over but now he and his friends have shown up at Jake’s. Jake think that he might’ve killed one of the cops and just wounded the others because he is a trained MMA fighter so he grabs things from his place and they go to get some of hers only to find out her place has been trashed. As the finally make a getaway they hear a news story where Jake is being blamed for her murder and the assaults on the cops. Will they be able to clear their names? Can they prove that the cops are dirty? Will they stay together?
This is a great story that will have you on the edge of your seat once you start reading. The chemistry between them is blazing hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Who doesn’t need a Hammer from time to time?
Hammer is another Loki Renard story with a hotter then heck Alpha, cheeky heroine, sizzling chemistry between them, a dangerous situation, drama, suspense, “romance” and did I mention spanking……………….oh there is lots of spanking!!!
This is the story of Jazz and Jake. She is a bartender who is just keeping her head down and trying to stay out of the way of her ex, a cop that is into the darker side of life with pimping out girls and some other stuff. Jake is an ex Marine who was dishonorably discharged and now makes money as an underground fighter. They have been neighbors for 8 months and have not talked to each other but they definitely have a thing for each other. Finally one night is all it takes and they share some between the sheet time. However, her crazy ex and two cop buddies decide to bust up her apartment and then kick in the door to Jake’s and try to assault him. Let’s just say that does not go well and Jake takes Jazz and they are on the run from the law.
This is an interesting story but I think it could have been better flushed out and more details given. But on the whole I enjoyed reading Hammer and the over the top crazy story, plus the ending.
I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
This is a good book. But I do not like the way Jazz keeps putting herself down when Jake is trying to feel more safe and confident in herself and surroundings. Jake and his old unit are a extraordinary group of men who felt out of place coming home from military. It can be a rough transition to go through as well as what Jazz went through in her life before meeting Jake.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review.
Hammer. That’s what his old military buddies call him, and after a night with him I can see how he earned the nickname. He’s a trained killer turned MMA fighter, and everything he does in lie, he does hard. In the ring, he hits hard, In bed, well what he does there is hard too. Long and hard. I thought he’d lose interest in me once we hooked up but when my corrupt cop ex-boyfriend and his thugs try to kill us both, Hammer decides I need his protection weather I want it or not. Turns out his idea of keeping me safe is to take me to some out in the middle of nowhere and spanking me until I’m sore and sorry and soaked whenever I dare to disobey him. I just hope he’s’ ready to give it to the bad guys half as rough and hard as he give it to me.
In Hammer you will meet Jake who was a military turned MMA fighter. Jazz used to live in a cult with her mom and is broken. She escaped this cult at the age of fourteen. Now she is in danger and her neighbor she has tried to ignore is gong to be her savior. This book is hot and so engrossing you are going to devour it in a matter of hours. I loved it and can’t wait to see what Loki Renard gives us next
Can Jake and Jazz have a HEA
This is my 2nd book by Loki and I loved the story of Jake and Jazz. Jazz and Jake are in Jake’s bed when they hear Jazz’s apartment being trashed right before they break into Jake’s place. Jake ends the threat and finds out that it’s Jazz’s ex-boyfriend who is a bad cop. They flee to Jake’s military friends’ hideout in the mountains until such time as they can eliminate the threat. While on the run, Jake protects Jazz the only way he can, but will it be enough? I was turning the pages to find out if Jazz and Jake will ever have a happily ever after again.
This story is about a young woman, Jazz, who has escaped her mother’s cult and fell into a bad situation anyway. She talks to her neighbor Jake after one of his MMA fights and ends up spending the night (sexy times included). They are awakened by loud noises from her apartment and then Jakes door is broken in. He reacts to 3 men breaking in and knocks them out fast. Jazz and Jake get out of town and they learn more about each other. I will not go into the rest because you just have to read to believe what happens in order for them to get a hea.

The main female character is Jazz and she has been through a lot in her life which has resulted in some trust issues. Jake is ex-military and likes to be in control. The two have amazing chemistry and end up running/hiding from some corrupt cops. The story has action, suspense and a lot of steam.

Turn up the air conditioning cause it’s going to get hot! What a great, fast-paced read. Loki Renard keeps you coming back for more. This gifted author knows how to write a suspenseful, gritty, action and steamy book. There was no way to predict all the twists and turns in this story. You will not be disappointed buying this book.

This is a fabulous story. There were several twists and turns that really made the story intense and exciting. I really liked the guys Remington, Tristin and Jake. They come across as super tough but they have a softer inside. I was so sad for Jazz. The guy with the comment “straight on the rocks” made me laugh and Jazz’s response is perfect. The ending was phenomenal.
Not as dark as most of Loki Renard’s books, but a great read, none the less. Jake, hot, alpha, ex military MMA fighter comes to the aid of abused, threatened Jazz. They go on the run, meet some of Jake;s buddies and seek revenge. The book is well paced, steamy, and has some interesting twists and turns. Well done and a great read

What more can you ask for than a sexy MMA fighter that has a protective streak a mile wide?- absolutely nothing. This story had me on the edge of my seat from the beginning. Jazz and Jake have this undeniable chemistry from the start until Jazz starts to overthink things and confusion sets in. This book is nonstop action and suspense with manhunts, danger, spankings and hot and steamy sexy times. This author writes a relatable story line with flawed characters. I can’t wait to read what she has coming up for us next!! I highly recommend this book!
