Too many books, too little time.
Consumed (Consumed, #1) - Skyla Madi 3.5 Fighting Stars

Olivia (finally!) breaks up with her boyfriend of six years whom being cheating in a regular basis.
When she goes to her father’s gym to ease the stress she meets Seth, hot-as-hell MMA fighter and ultimate male whore.
She knows she can’t have him, she had enough of guys in her life wanting to jump in everything that moves… but unfortunately her body and her subconscious don’t know that.

Seth also wants Olivia, but for the first time in his life he wants more than sex from a woman and he believes that she is too good for him, especially a man with a past like his.
But he doesn’t want to give up on her and he has to find out how to become the man she needs… without losing her in the process.

Although I liked the story and it was an enjoyable reading, there were some things that didn’t quite work for me.
First it was Olivia. She annoyed me to no end, not because she was whiny or stubborn or anything like that: She was completely unprofessional!! I don’t know how she didn’t get fired before.
And sometimes the dialogue was too unnatural, the plot to predictable and the supportive characters didn’t do anything for me.
And Seth talked about his very bad past, okay, is bad… but let’s not make something way worse than it really is. And for a male whore who didn’t want any kind of compromise… he changed real quick.

However, if you’re into books with steam, romance and badass MMA fighters… you’ll probably like this one ;)
