Are they both caged into lives they never wanted?Callan Walsh kicks ass. In fact, he’s famous for it. As one of the brightest up-and-coming stars on the MMA scene, he’s an absolute beast in the cage…and out. Everything he’s trained for has brought him to this moment. Going toe-to-toe with reigning champ Xavier Gray will make or break his career. Nothing can distract him from his lifelong goal. … from his lifelong goal. Nothing. Until he meets…his opponent’s little sister.
Josie Gray is hell on wheels, gorgeous AF, and has a mouth that doesn’t stop. The reluctant reality-television star is every man’s dream, but she’s about to become Callan’s nightmare. Tired of being in her brother’s fight-club entourage, Josie desperately desires her own life out of the limelight. Her loyalty to family keeps her tangled in faux fame, but what she feels for Callan is the realest thing she’s ever known.
Sparks fly when Callan comes to Josie’s rescue, leading to an all-consuming fire after a single night together. Forever is right at their fingertips, if only everything—and everyone—wasn’t working to keep them apart. Will Callan and Josie fight through family ties to come out on top? Or are they both caged into lives they never wanted?

So Sarah Robinson is a new-to-me author, and this is one of the many reasons I love the Misadventures series. I have come to find some amazingly talented authors that I don’t think I would have if it hadn’t been for this series. This author is one of them and I am so glad that she’s been added to the amazing line up of authors. I need to check out her other books. Because if they are anything like this, I know I will love them.
Josie has sat on the sidelines her whole life watching her brother become an amazing MMA fighter. It’s consumed her whole life. The media, reality shows, the fame her brother has. She became his manager so of course this was all expected of her, but she started to feel in less and less control of her own life and felt as though she was spiraling out of control. Everything about her life consisted of her brother and his fighting.
One night she found herself at a bar where she meets a hot as hell man called Callan and you know how things go, one thing leads to another and they spend a lustful, fun and passionate night together but what started as a one-night stand turns into so much more when both Callan and Josie realize that Callan is the one person that can bring down her brother. Josie is the sister and manager of Callan nemesis’ Xavier… It was the last thing they both expected and what’s more, the connection between them is stronger than ever, and they can’t seem to keep away from each other. But things are never that easy… Life is never that simple, well not for these two and what transpires throughout the book is these two fighting every obstacle that gets in their way to be together, while Callan and Xavier fight for the top title belt.
I loved this! It was such a fun read. The author didn’t miss a thing and this story lacked for nothing. It was entertaining, fun, steamy and altogether an awesome enjoyable read that had me intrigued from the very beginning, I became addicted within the first few chapters and I couldn’t put it down till the very end.
A Must Read and an awesome addition into the Misadventures series!
5 Stars
Definitely felt like I went a few rounds but came out the winner! Debra @ Janise’s Jivin’ Book Blog
This was my first story by Sarah Robinson. She wrote us a great romance filled with unexpected moments. I was intrigued with her plot twists and turns.
Josie and Callan meet have huge chemistry from the beginning. As with most instant heat moments its what comes after that initial flame that makes the story unique!
What I liked most about their story was truly how they dealt with the what comes after. It is not always what you would expect but it is truly what needs to happen.
Bravo to our author for going the way she did. I will be checking out more of Sarah Robinsons work!
A chance encounter at a bar leads to an unforgettable romance that seems to be doomed from the start. The attraction is intense, the emotions are real, but will that matter when everything else is striped and fate seems to want to keep them apart? A captivating story from start to finish that deserves five stars and all the praise! Callan and Josie are unforgettable and their story is one of growth and taking chances, even when they scare you to death.
Wow HOT and funny! Wendy for Janise’s Jivin’ Book Blog
This was my first Sarah Robinson book but I knew it would be good since it is part of the Misadventures series. Josie and Callen’s story was a little different since it didn’t all take place in a short period of time. I liked the extra details. Right off the bat this book had me laughing at Josie and Callen as they bond over Sienna. It was plenty spicy so don’t worry. Looking forward to checking out more of Sarah’s work.
LOVED THIS BOOK! I could not put this book down. I honestly didnt see the ending going how it did but it made sense. There were a few times I was pretty shocked. I don’t want to give anything but this is another Misadventures must read.
What starts off as an encounter at a dive bar turns into so much more when the man Josie feels a connection with happens to be the one man that can break down all of the goals her brother has set up. Callan never thought that the woman he has great sex with is also the woman who is his nemesis’ manager. But when Xavier and Callan get in the cage all bets are off and more things are up for grabs but the title belt. I absolutely fell in love with Callan and had an instant negative connection with Xavier. Each chapter became more and more interesting and by the end I was completely invested in the storyline. Another great addition to a great series.
Woah!
I started this book without reading the synopsis. I loved most of the other misadventures so I figured I’d jump right in to this one.
I read the first 3 chapters and wasn’t sure if be able to finish it…but I’m not a quitter so I pushed through. I’m so glad that I did finish it. It really turned out to be a great story.
You could just feel the love and emotions with this book! Josie and Callan were really great characters. Despite all the turn of events in their life, they still managed to come out on top…together!
Callan and Josie have such a hillarious and unexpected first night together. Sure things get hot and then romantic and all that, but what they do when they first meet is what stands out in my mind. So funny.
This was definitely a misadventure. Whenever I started to think, oh hey, they overcame the problem and it’s on to the hea, something else popped up. I was definitely entertained. I love the way it all turns out in the end and I was surprised along the way.
When the distractor needs a distraction to become what they truly are in life.
This book was about more than the octagon but about branching out and finding your happy place. When the glitz and glamour is not your peace and happiness but a means to an end.
How it is lonely at the top and how fast you can fall from it. How one night can change your life for the good and the unexpected.
Chasing “the belt” can lead to a road that you no longer recognize yourself as anything but a PR spotlight.
This story had it all. Most of all I saw a little of Sarah in here too. The chains have been removed. Continue living the best life and with your happy ending like Josie. You now have your Callan.
