Small Recap: Madison is framed for the events that happened at the Laughing Clown on riot night. She is put in jail and put on trial, though eventually the charges are dropped, and her father sends her away to live with an aunt until things die down. Madison (M.K.) returns to find out the three guys (Archer, Max, and Kody) that framed her are now living in her father’s new house and her father goes away on vacation without waiting for her to get home.
This was my first Tate James book that I read, well actually I listened to the audiobook. This book was action-packed, suspenseful, steamy and more. Madison is a badass FMC who doesn't take shit from nobody. Her sarcastic sayings towards Archer, Max, and Kody are HILARIOUS. All of the main characters were written great. The only thing I did not like about this book is the Madison's best friend, Bri. I found her to be annoying. This book was an easy read for being a why choose book. All three men were easy to follow, and they all had their own little thing about them that you can't forget. Also, I enjoyed the little aspects of MMA that were thrown into the book.
