Rick "Ricochet" Brennan served eight years as an elite Marine special ops Force Recon soldier. After an injury, and the terrible memories from that night, he retires and goes to work for his former Command Officer, Howard "Mack" McEvoy, at his training center in Atlanta.

Sanctum MMA appears on the surface to be a normal gym, training elite fighters to be the best. Except each trainer, hand-picked by Mack, possesses a special background that allows Mack to run one of the best-kept secrets in the country.

When twenty-three year old Quinn Wallace finally escapes her abusive husband, she turns to her father’s old Marine Corps buddy, Mack, for help. Broken and skittish, Quinn finds herself surrounded by large, intimidating men— men who could easily overpower her. She avoids them the best she can, but when Rick turns out to be more than just a rough fighter with bruised knuckles, she finds herself wondering if she can allow herself to trust again.




My Reviews:


Ricochet: Locked & Loaded (Ricochet, #1)Ricochet: Locked & Loaded by Heather C. Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ricochet: Locked & Loaded by Heather C. Leigh is first in the three-part serial, Ricochet.

A damaged war-vet and a broken woman both fighting to break free of their own emotional prisons have the chance to break free WITH each other in this wonderfully dark and emotional, heart-wrenching tale.

Rick Brennan, AKA RICOCHET, made it out of the military mostly in-tact with an honorable discharge and is now working for his former CO and his private security company. While he normally is a love 'em and leave 'em type with no desire to hang around, he can't stop wanting Quinn.

Quinn is battling her own demons and it takes all she has to maintain her calm around all the fighters as the gym she's now working at. In her sudden escape she went to the only place she had left, an old friend of her fathers that runs an MMA fighters gym in Georgia.

Any more and I'm running the risk of spoilers. Be forewarned, this is steamy, emotional, and a little dark. It has a few twists that will leave you buzzing and has a cliffhanger ending that picks up in the next book, Ricochet: Friendly Fire.

Ricochet: Friendly Fire (Ricochet #2)Ricochet: Friendly Fire by Heather C. Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ricochet: Friendly Fire by Heather C. Leigh is the second book in the three-part serial, Ricochet.

**WARNING: Potential spoilers for the series in this review, although I tried not to!**

Picking up right where book one left off, the drama continues to unfold. Quinn & Rick's lives get more intertwined and twisted than before and all bets are off as far as Rick is concerned with Quinn's safety. Book two will leave you craving more but rest easy, book three, Ricochet: Extraction Point, is now available.

Ricochet: Extraction Point (Ricochet #3)Ricochet: Extraction Point by Heather C. Leigh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ricochet: Extraction Point by Heather C. Leigh is the third and final book in the three-part serial, Ricochet. This books ties together all the loose ends of Quinn's past in a twisted, didn't see it coming until it smacked me in the face kinda way.

Quinn's been through a lot. By this book we know just about all her dark secrets that's she's tried to put behind her. We also learn more about Rick's true character and feelings and just what he is willing to sacrifice in order to keep Quinn in his life.

This was a fantastic read that I absolutely enjoyed and I will definitely be keeping an eye out for any more stories featuring the Sanctum MMA guys.


Excerpt:

“Hey,” he said calmly. “Why aren’t you resting?” Rick put his hands on her shoulders, gently massaging her arms.

Quinn’s eyes grew large and went to his gloved hands.

Fuck, she hates fighting. Now I know why she looks freaked out.

Rick yanked his hands away and took a step back. “I didn’t mean for you to see me fight, Quinn. I’m sorry.”

To his surprise, Quinn stepped forward, closing the distance Rick had put between them. He watched as she hesitantly lifted her arms, placing her hands on his sweat-slicked chest. Her eyes met his and his breath left in a sharp huff. The fear he had expected to see wasn’t there. No… Quinn’s eyes were dark and glistening with lust.

“I didn’t know that watching you fight would be so comforting. It makes me feel safe, and… turned on,” she murmured. Rick shivered as her hands ran down his torso, moving over each defined muscle until they were resting on either side of his waist.

“Turned on?” Rick swallowed, barely able to speak with Quinn touching him like that. She was only just about healed from the attack. He figured it would be months, if not longer before she’d be interested in pursuing anything physical.

“Yes, turned on.” Quinn’s fingers dug into Rick’s waist, her thumbs making small circles on the ‘v’ shaped ridges of his lower abs. Scorching waves of pleasure rippled down his spine, instantly making his cock come to life.

“Jesus,” he muttered softly. Using every last bit of willpower he had, Rick captured Quinn’s wrists, removing her hands from his body. “Not here, doll.” He glanced around, but none of the other fighters were looking their way. Still, he’d kill them if they saw the lust in Quinn’s eyes. That was for him, and him alone.

Quinn pouted, crossing her arms and glaring like a kid denied her favorite candy.


He couldn’t help himself. The sight of this tiny thing trying to look intimidating was funny. Rick laughed. “You’re too much, doll.” The corner of her mouth twitched up—it was just a hint of a smile, but it made Rick’s day. Quinn hadn’t smiled once since his team rescued her. Seeing some of her personality coming back flooded him with emotion.
