My Thoughts:
This is the third and final book in the Wayward
Spencer and Olivia’s story is very different from the previous books. Both of them are fighting their battles, but outside the ring. When we meet Spencer in Knockout and Tapout he was a mess trying to keep all his lies together and his gambling problem a secret. In the end, his addiction cost him his best friend and the woman he loved.
I always liked Spencer I knew there was more to his story and J.C. Valentine did a fantastic job. She tells a tale of addiction, lost friendship, lost love and recovering it all through a process of therapy and faith in yourself.
Spencer is a hero with many faults, but admitting them is half the battle. Olivia has secrets of her own. Her childhood was no picnic. To cope, she started cutting herself. She tries very hard to keep it together and not allow the stress of life to make her fall back into old habits. Unfortunately, her insecurities come creeping back when Spencer shows up on her doorstep looking for a place to stay. Why now she wonders when he ignored her efforts to be there for him while he was in rehab? Following this couple as they learn how to trust each other was a pleasure to read. It doesn’t take long for them to begin to fall for each other all over again. Their sex scenes are hot, exciting and fun their sexual chemistry is explosive. Spencer steps up and comes to realize that taking care of Olivia is what he needs in order to continue on the right path for his own recovery. She is his home anywhere she is that’s where he wants to be.
*RECEIVED AND ARC IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW*
Olivia awoke bathed in an incredible heat all along her backside. It reminded her of
More comfortable than ever, she burrowed deeper into the pillow, hoping sleep would reclaim her so she wouldn’t have to get up. She wasn’t ready to leave the bed yet.
That’s when she felt the mattress shift, and she realized she wasn’t in her bed. The heat grew more intense as Spencer’s body curved against hers, jamming a rock hard erection into her lower back.
She wiggled, trying to inch away, but his heavy arm draped over her, holding her in place.
And wedging that stiff member along the crease of her buttocks and between her thighs.
The feel of it there, tucked up against her body, made her shiver with desire. It had been so long since they’d been together that way. She missed the feel of his body against hers. Missed the feel of it pressing in deep, the way he masterfully played her into a frenzy of absolute bliss.
Instead of moving away, she found her hips pressing back, seeking more contact. The subtle movement of her hips against his pulled a sleepy moan from him, and she paused, waiting to see if he’d woken up. When he didn’t make any further sounds or moves, she pushed back again
The feel of his hard flesh between her legs caused a ripple of sensation to move through her, settling into a throbbing ache between her legs. Biting her lip, she continued the steady motion until the small beads of
It was a small, keening sound that barely left her lips, but in the absolute quiet of the room, it might as well have been an alarm.
She knew she should stop. She had no idea if Spencer even wanted this. He was still sleeping, which meant she was taking advantage of him. She was too ashamed to admit that even that wasn’t enough to make her stop what she was doing. It felt too good, the pleasure too much for her to abandon. She needed this. With him.
She needed to feel close to him again, the way they used to be, and sex felt like a really good start in that direction. There was nothing that could bring a couple closer than that. In the right situation, sex stripped away all inhibitions, all masks, and created a kind of soul-baring intimacy that had the power to solidify relationships.
That’s what this felt like to her, a move toward solidifying them as a couple. She wanted to strip away the walls between them and bring them closer together, creating an unbreakable bond.
Spencer’s arm tightened, crushing against her ribcage. As she rocked her hips faster, rubbing his cock against her soaked panties, his breathing deepened, gusting against the back of her neck where he’d buried his face.
She wasn’t sure if he was awake now, but she couldn’t imagine anyone sleeping through this. Her body was on fire, her insides an inferno of pleasure so profound, her eyes crossed beneath her closed lids.
She wasn’t sure how much longer she could keep this up, but as her legs began to tremble and her muscles shook with her building orgasm, she managed to tap into her last vestiges of energy. It was just enough to get her to the edge, and when she felt
“Oh, God, yes,” Olivia cried out, gripping the blanket as her muscles clenched down hard. The orgasm felt as if it lasted forever, rather than mere seconds, and left her gasping for breath.
She was still trying to collect herself when she was forced to her back. Rolling on top of her, Spencer split her legs open to accommodate his larger frame and his eyes, a stormy blue, bored into hers.
“That was the hottest fucking thing I’ve ever seen.”
Caught red-handed—or wet-
“Don’t go getting embarrassed on me,” Spencer admonished. “I like that you used me. Getting you off is my pleasure.” With a wan smile, he reached between them and ran his fingers through his semen. “Obviously.”
“Spence,” she complained, covering her eyes with her hand.
“No, baby. Don’t hide from me.” Pulling her hand away, Spencer forced her to look at him. “As much as I enjoyed making a mess out of you, I want to do this right. The next time you come, it’s going to be around my dick.”
He rocked his hips against hers, and she was shocked to realize that he was still hard. Looked like that time apart had some benefits after all.
“That’s right, Liv,” Spencer crooned, his voice low and rough and dark with promise. “I’m going to fuck you hard, and this time, it’s my name you’ll be shouting.”
