I loved this new “Calendar Boys” story with the incredibly athletic and hot MMA Fighter. This story is well written and extremely captivating. It hooked from the beginning when he sees the beautiful girl with the pink hair. After the fight he is in ice in the locker room when Justin, his best friend, brings in his sister. Ramsey, just so happens to be the beauty with the pink hair. Unfortunately, as soon as she sees Hudson she passes out because he is bleeding. What an introduction! These two are instant attraction but fight it because she’s his best friends little sister. This is a fun story with some drama, emotions, twist, turns, great banter, passion and steam. Great story and wonderful characters!! Bring on Mr. August! I am loving these “Calendar Boys”!!!!!
Another wonderful read from Ms. Goodin. Every month, I am excited for a new read, and July didn’t disappoint. The author creates these really awesome characters and this month is no exception. Hudson and Ramsay are great together, with amazing chemistry. Despite being an MMA champ, Hudson is so tender and loving towards Ramsay, and goes through a whole gamut of emotions. Their relationship has its ups and downs, but unlike what one would expect, they stay true to each other despite the difficult time and that is what makes me fall in love with these characters.
Another wonderful book that I hated to end.

Brother’s best friend (if you follow my reviews) is my most favourite trope. Add in sexy MMA fighter and I was drooling at the thought.
Nicole S. Goodin has once again given us a quick, sweet and super surprising story that kept me from adulting. Seriously, I didn’t do anything else once I started.
Have you read the calendar Boys? Mr. July is delicious
This is a well written book with strong characters in Hudson and Ramsey who have an instant attraction for each other. Problem: she’s his best friend’s sister.The author takes them on an emotional journey on their way to their HEA. It moves at a steady pace and I enjoyed reading their story.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
Hudson Scott.
Nicknamed ‘The Horror’.
Champion MMA fighter.
… And caught up in an off-limits woman.
Ramsey Ashton.
Queasy around blood.
Pink haired beauty.
… And crushing on her brother’s best friend.
Enjoyed the story but seems a little predictable. I was hoping a MMA fighter named ‘Horror’ would live up to his name lol but he’s a little on the soft side.
Ramsey is talked into going to watch a fight and the fighter ‘Horror’ sees her and is so smitten with her. He can’t forget about her. He gets injured and she ends up being his physiotherapist. They get to know each other and end up having feelings for each other but there is a problem. Ramsey is off limits. I would definitely read more from this author. I love these MMA fighter romances.
I’m having a serious fan girl moment. This book was amazing!!! Hudson and Ramsey were PERFECT. Once I started, I couldn’t put it down. Great chemistry, great story, great book.

Hudson is an MMA fighter and Ramsey’s brother’s best friend. Ramsey is off limits to Hudson because of it. He can’t help but notice her with her beauty and pink hair. She’s always had a crush on Hudson. Ramsey can’t stand blood and doesn’t care for fighting. The couple are complete opposites but it’s always been a case of attraction. Will they be able to make things work or will things go off the rails? A sexy opposites attract romance for readers.
I swear this series just gets better with each book.
Hudson is a MMA fighter who ends up falling for his best friends sister. He’s also the champ and his nickname Horror fits him perfect.
Ramsey, is a physical therapist who happened to work on Hudson’s injuries after his last fight. She’s down to earth but is also afraid of blood.
What more can you ask for form a sexy fighter and a forbidding romance? These two have an instant chemistry and they have a hard time just trying to be friends. The side characters are also great. Justin and Juliet, they definitely need their own story that’s for sure.
Mr.July is another favorite of mine. Well done Nicole!
Nicole has done it again! Every time I read one of the Calendar Boys books I think there is no way she can top what she has already done, but this one definitely became one of my favorites! I love Hudson and Ramsey and thought their chemistry was amazing. This book definitely had me hooked from the start and dying to know how things were going to work out with the two of them. With them having such an intense attraction to each other, but with Ramsey’s brother telling Hudson she was off limits I knew they were in for a bumpy road.
You will not be disappointed! One click this baby ASAP! By Alisa
Mr Sexy MMA, I mean, Mr July
How is it that Nicole Goodin can once again create a book that is going to have readers clamouring for her heroes. This month’s Mister is a sexy MMA Pro fighter, and his story fits firmly in the brother’s best friend trope. It is Hudson ‘The Horror’ Scott who has captured my fancy, but not for myself. Ramsey Ashton is my choice of partner for him. Ms Goodin chose well.
She is a physiotherapist and hasn’t long been home, and with her father and brother in the world of MMA, she is their first choice for Hudson to be seeing to recover from a title winning fight. From the moment that their eyes meet, their story captured my interest.
Just when I though Nicole Goodin’s writing was at her best, she has again come up with another book with even more intensity and chemistry between the characters. I loved Ramey’s description of Hudson, and it was hard to keep cool when reading about his physical attributes and thinking how lucky she was to get her tongue onto that gorgeous specimen of a man.
So when their relationship went through some pretty intense moments, it was all I could do to not skim ahead to see that it was all sorted out!
5 stars, again, for Ms Goodin’s July Calendar boy.
Fighting the Horror
Nicole Goodin, you have got me again. I am still salivating over Mr June, and now I am drooling over Mr July.
As I read this book and was introduced to Hudson. He is hot as all get out with the body of all bodies, I felt as though I was actually in the book, touching his body from head to toe. What I like is the fact that although it wasn’t full of sexual encounters every other chapter or so, it had substance. It had you happy, sad and some points even mad. That is what makes Mr Goodins books great, they not only give you the Love, Lust and warm feels, they also give you substance and a storyline you will remember.
Hudson is the man on the fighting scene, but when he meets Ramsey is he going to have to fight for more than his career? Can they get pass the one big elephant in the picture and make it in the end? Dont hesitate to find out.
Once again I am thoroughly impressed and I can only imagine what Mr August has to offer. If you want hottness every month then make sure you grab each book from Mr January to Mr July.
I am truly enjoying the Calendar Boys series and how different and captivating each story in the series has been. In Mr. July by Nicole S. Goodin, we get a brother’s best friend romance with all the feels. Hudson is a dedicated MMA fighter. He is determined and single-minded. That is until Ramsey enters his life. The attraction is instant for both, but she is the sister of his best friend and trainer. A line he should definitely not cross. But some things just cannot be denied! Ramsey was sweet and very likeable. I loved their chemistry and seeing them fall was half the fun. The story was sweet, steamy and fun.
4.5-stars. Read and reviewed for Reviews from the Heart.
Happy reading!
I just loved Hudson and Ramsey’s story I have read all of these books and I have to say this is my favorite so far it is a good well-written brother’s best friend romance these two are just fantastic together this is a good quick read and I would highly recommend it.
I loved Hudson and Ramsey. I completely devoured this book in one sitting, I couldn’t put it down.
Hudson always has his focus on his match and his opponent, that is until a pink haired beauty grabs his attention. He wants to know who this girl is, he wants to see her again. The girl? Well, she just happens to be his best friends little sister and completely off limits.
Hudson and Ramsey had instant chemistry, they were both completely drawn to each other from the very beginning, even though they both knew that she shouldn’t cross the line into something more. I loved the friendship that they had developed throughout the story, but when they finally gave in to each other it was HOT.
This was steamy (in multiple ways), it was sweet, there was some witty banter and overall just a fun best friends little sister sports romance.
With each month this series gets better and better and I love each book more and more. These are the perfect reads for any time of year.
Each book in this series, just keeps getting better.
…what happens to alpha male, that spots the girl of his dreams in a crowd,
Later finding it his best friend sister…
Sparks fly, connections are made, swoon worthy moments, you can’t help not to fall head of heals for this alpha male!!! I love this series!!! Can’t wait for Mr August!!!
I’m not sold with this cover but holy shit this story was awesome. I loved Hudson and Ramsey. Their relationship was a rollercoaster filled with not wanting to hurt others but wanting to do the right thing for each other. I was hard to see them apart when it was clear for the get go they belong together.
But as all the stories in this series the ending to this one was as perfect as it can be.
These calendar boys have made me a huge fan and this one is by far the best of them yet.

I really enjoyed this book following ramsey and Hudson as they navigate around the people in their lives to be together. The spark was instant and the big mma fighter craved the moment he saw her pink hair, but neither one wanted to betray the trust and friendship of her brother. Really easy to read and I couldn’t put it down. This is a new author for me and this book makes me want to read the rest in this series.
This is so good, it’s so sweet, you should read it. Yes, it’s quick. Its 100% worth your time. The characters are so lovely. I’m book crushing.

Mr July was always going to appeal to me being my Birthday month but I didn’t expect a total knockout with this one. Hudson is a MMA fighter who is never distracted, he only has eyes on his opponent, that is until the pink haired girl catches his eye. Ramsey is instantly attracted to Hudson however the fact that he is her brother’s best friend means that they are off limits to each other. The chemistry between these two is like a choke hold they can’t get out of. As much as Hudson “The Horror” was born to fight, the love that is brewing for Ramsey might be one that he will not be able to challenge. As secrets, misunderstandings and hearts are all tangled up, fighting for their future might be the ultimate win. A steamy best friend’s sister romance that will not have you tapping out before the end.
Nicole Goodin has written a wonderful love story about an MMA fighter and his best friends sister.This book is a great read and I could not put it down. Follow Hudson “Horror” and Ramsey “Ram-Ram” as they fight their feelings for each other. Loyalties will be challenged, misguided assumptions will be had, LOVE will be made.
But will it be enough?
Does Ramsey truly have the power to bring the fighting champ to his knees?
Will Hudson be able to win the heart of Ramsey?
Will Hudson throw his friendship away for a girl?
Will he admit to her he is in love?
Will Ramsey’s brother, Justin – Hudsons trainer and best friend, be able to accept that Ramsey and Hudson love each other and accept their relationship?
Grab this book and find all the answers to these questions and more.
