Close Contact
A Body Armor Novel
by Lori Foster
There’s no resisting a desire like this…
MMA fighter Miles Dartman’s casual arrangement with personal shopper Maxi Nevar would be many men’s fantasy. She seeks him out, they have mindblowing sex, she leaves. Rinse, repeat. Yet lately, Miles wants more. And when Maxi requests his services via the Body Armor security agency, he’s ready to finally break through her defenses—and protect her day and night.
Receiving a large inheritance has brought chaos and uncertainty into Maxi’s life. Her ex has resurfaced, along with lots of former “friends,” and someone is making mysterious threats. Then there’s Miles, who doesn’t ask for anything, except her trust. Pleasure is easy. Now Maxi has to give her heart as well as her body or risk losing a man who could be everything she needs.
Review:
Close Contact is the third book in Lori Foster's Body Armor series. The series follows a group of former MMA fighters turned body guards. If you have read previous books in this series and/or the Ultimate series you will see a few familiar faces show up in this one.
Close Contact is Maxi & Miles story, Maxi gains a large inheritance and along with it...more trouble than she can handle on her own. Miles was a one night...ok three night stand and just happens to work for a company that provides protection. When things become dangerous and gets too far out of hand, Maxi hires Miles for his protection. Miles knows what he wants in life and he wants more than a quickie with Maxi, by becoming her bodyguard, Miles figures he could wiggle his way into her heart.
I love that this book takes a bit of a different angle and steps away from the main streets and inner city that the other books showcase. As always, Close Contact has all the suspense, intrigue, hot MMA guys, and steamy lovin' that you come to expect from a Lori Foster book....oh, and of course some laughs too! I always enjoy the scenes with the interaction between the guys...they are fun & quite hilarious too. This author writes like she can see right into the mindset of the male species and I just love that.
Please be sure to pick your copy of Close Contact...you won't be disappointed!
