Reckless Attraction is an enemies-to-lovers trilogy. This series is complete.
What readers are saying:
Definitely a wild ride.
Instant fireworks.
You will have a hard time putting it down.
The passion between them was addictive.
Witty dialogue and likeable characters combined with fast pacing are all hallmarks off JJ Knight’s’ writing.
Whoa momma! Sexy MMA fighters, secrets and pasts, what more could you want?
This doubter is hooked!
I hardly ever give five stars, but this book gripped me and I gobbled it up!
Holy feels. This book was so intriguing.
This new series is already amazing.
Oh how I’ve missed JJ’s MMA boys!
The chemistry is undeniable.
This read will have you hooked from beginning to end.more
This is one of those stories that you think that is going to be boy meets girl, boy and girl fall head over heels in love and they get a HEA. Well don’t expect that from a J.J. Knight book. She will throw you for a few loops and a few curveballs before she leaves you yelling and screaming because the book ends the way it does.
I know it is a three-part series, so I knew going in that this one would end in a cliffhanger but I didn’t know it would leave me sitting there with my mouth hanging open.
I am not going to give anything away, just to say if you have read anything from this author, you know she can write an awesome story and to me MMA is by far my favorite from her.
So if you are looking for a story that will keep you on the edge and leave you guessing what will happen next, you need to read this one. I can wait to get my hands on book two.
**Copy of this book was provided by the author and this is my honest review**
Reckless Attraction 1 was an amazing exciting read. I could not put it down. I have read the other titles in this connected series and this author is quickly becoming one of my faves. The ending was simply wow, cannot wait to read number 2!
Look out for the KO in this new fight series. This starts a little on the light weight side but ends on a cliff hanger with a previous series “bad guy” living up to his predilection to cause trouble. This author is always a good read. Enjoyed this first book and looking forward to the next.
It’s been a while since JJ Knight wrote MMA stories but oh it’s been worth the weight. Hudson is the brother of Jo, who married into the McClure family, a big deal in the MMA world. Chloe has her world turned upside down by people who have had experience of MMA and now she is vocal about it. Chloe picks up a Speedride for drop off near her next assignment and the chemistry with the passenger is off the charts. Hudson and Chloe form an instant connection which comes toppling down when she does her job and has an illegal fight raided by police. Hudson is one of the fighters. Everyone gets arrested. Can’t wait for book two, to continue the story.
Hudson is a fighter who trains in a famous gym. He is eager to prove he is ready for a real fight, but everybody thinks he is not.
Chloe is a professional protester who works for an extreme protest organization. Her next mission is to get proofs of an illegal MMA fighting ring.
I’m not into fighters, but I got this book because I have read another series by the author. I have to say I don’t regret it at all.
It’s quick to read, full of action, impossible to stop reading until the last page. The only but is the cliffhanger but it’s totally worth it.
If you like good stories and don’t mind cliffhangers, then this is your book.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this book.
I love the whimsical feel that their relationship has from the time that they meet. A small part of me knows that the instant connection and not wanting to let go are the thing of fairy tales. But I do hope that I find someone that gives me those feelings. I cannot wait to see where the story picks from the cliff hanger. I’m excited to see if their relationship will stand the test once Hudson finds out she is the person responsible for the bust. Or if she will even allow herself to fall for him.
Oh my, oh my, this read will have you hooked from beginning to end. I couldn’t put this book down because the characters were intriguing, the storyline captivating and the cliffhanger jaw dropping. I so need the next book NOW and you’ll feel the same so one-click this amazing read…. what are you waiting for!
Thos book was amazing. JJ Knight had outdone herself with this book I have rrad other books by her and would recommend he books to anyone. I cannot wait to read book 2.
Very good jumpstart to the series. Author provides just enough character insight to lay the foundation of the plot, of course since this is MMA, there’s a taste of action. The mystery hooked me and will definitely draw you in and make you want to know more about this couple and where the plot & their journey will go from here.
It is a reckless attraction and then the return of the cliffhanger
Reckless Attraction Volume 1 is classic J.J. Knight cliffhanger included which is a throwback to her roots style-wise and something anticipated and dreaded for her fans.
This time we’re presented with Chloe and Hunter, both in their early twenties and both struggling to reclaim or reach their long awaited goals. Chloe is a strong, independent woman who barely has $5 to her name, works as a professional protester and moonlights as a “speedride” driver. With a new assignment, she uses her position as a driver to get there, stay incognito and try to beef up her budget all in one shot. Hunter, who is related to the Hurricane from previous J.J. Knight series, needs to win in the MMA circuit to consolidate his position as “THE” new contender and prove his value to his sponsors. Taking a huge risk and throwing caution to the wind (recklessly) he breaks from his training pattern, keeping his own plans as close to the best as possible, Hunter decides to use “speedride” to get to a underground venue and serendipity ensues.
Chloe became his driver and their attraction is immediate. This is where J.J. Knight shines because even when their relationship goes from 0-60 mph in mere seconds, the characters and setting are well defined thanks to the dual POV throughout the story. This volume focuses more in establish the hurdles our protagonists will have to face and romance comes second. Taking into consideration that everything happens in a matter of hours with a sprinkle of flashbacks to fill in and explain the who, where, and why’s, I’ll rate this volume 4 stars and will be in the lookout for the next volume July 23.
I volunteered to review a ARC and these are my sincere thoughts and opinion.
I have had the Uncaged Love and the Fight for Her series on my TBR for forever but still haven’t read them. The beginning of the Reckless Attraction trilogy has me wanting to drop everything and read them immediately!
The queen of cliffhangers has done it again with this new series!! I am anxiously awaiting Volume 2 so I can find out how things are going to go for Hudson and Chloe. I need to know how these two who are on opposite sides of the same fight are going to be able to overcome such a monumental obstacle. This new series is already amazing and I can’t wait to see what comes next!!
*This is my voluntary review of an advanced reader copy*
Very lively dialogues and interestingly diverse characters.
I loved the premise as the little spitfire plans to bust an illegal MMA fight while the unsuspecting hero is taking part in it to make a name for himself.
It was pretty to see how they connected over funny anecdotes and bittersweet memories. Though less acceptable that Hudson has a long flashback in the middle of a sweet moment with Chloe.
Despite that, the plot evolved nicely and the passion between them was addictive. I’m always fond of double POV, and I enjoyed it here because it allowed me to really know the inner thoughts of the characters.
The frantic scenes at the illegal fight event were very convincing. And I appreciated the detail that went into all the phases after the bust. The fear, the guilt, the unknown. I felt Hudson’s optimistic trust in the potential of this new relationship and how devasted Chloe was because of their incompatibility.
This first volume in the serial finished at a great crossroads for both characters, and I do want to know where it goes from there. And the writing style is good, too.
I love the humor, attraction, and everything else in this story about Hudson and Chloe. This story started off getting to know the characters and progressed on from there with moments of sadness, sexiness, and being scared. It ended with me wanting more!! I’m in need of the next one! So far I’m truly enjoying this series!
JJ Knight is back with her crazy cliffhangers. In Vol. 1 of Reckless Attraction we meet Chloe and Hudson and their story is just beginning. JJ’s writing will suck you in to her world. This is a quick read and well worth it. I love her stories and I can’t wait to see what happens to Chloe and Hudson next.
Good story so far. Engaging, real main characters. Can’t wait to see what happens next.
Welcome to the world of MMA where he loves and she hates it. This wouldn’t matter if their two worlds didn’t collide sparking instant fireworks. Busiest twelve hours time span ever that will leave you wanting more as the secrets year these two apart. If you are looking for a great contemporary romance novel with a fight theme try this one. I really enjoyed it so I give it 4/5 stars.
Reckless Attraction: Volume One by J.J. Knight was a great read. Before I go any further I must say that J.J. Knight is definitely the queen of cliffhangers. She definitely doesn’t disappoint with this book. Hudson and Chloe meet up on a fateful night. It is a night that will completely change their lives. I can’t wait to read more of their story.
When Hudson and Chloe meet there’s an instant connection. A pull to one another that almost seems fated. There’s a small problem though. Hudson and Chloe stand on opposing sides or so it may seem. Only time will tell.
I think Hudson and Chloe’s story will be a story about fighting for what you want and what you believe in.
The book ends in a cliffhanger but instead of turning me off it left me wanting more. Can’t wait for the next installment of the series.
First book I’ve read out if the series, but completely worth reading. I love how descriptive she gets when describing scenery, etc., makes you visualize it and books are better that way. She had become one of my favorite authors and I hope you give her abd her books a try because both are worth it. Can’t wait to see what happens next to Chloe and Hudson won seem to be a cute but struggling couple. I’m sure tears will be shed in the next one. Happy reading.
