Publisher's summary

An up-and-coming MMA fighter wants more than just one night from a woman fleeing her past in New York Times best-selling author Lori Foster's irresistible new novel.

Heavyweight fighter Denver Lewis plays real nice, but he doesn't share. That's why he's been avoiding top-notch flirt Cherry Peyton. But a man can resist those lush curves for only so long. Their encounter surpasses all his fantasies, bringing out protective urges that Cherry's about to need more than she knows....

Denver's combination of pure muscle and unexpected tenderness has been driving Cherry wild. Yet no sooner does she get what she's been craving than old troubles show up on her doorstep. And this time Cherry can't hide behind a carefree facade. Because the man by her side is one who'll fight like hell to keep her safe...if only she'll trust him enough to let him....

A great series as stand alone or group. This one has an alpha male and a real woman. Fun and sexy!

Gotta love Denver and Cherry!

What did you love best about Holding Strong?

The intricacies of the characters and the plot.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I can't pick. I love them all! I love how the guys and the neighborhood protect their own.

Have you listened to any of Jim Frangione’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes and he is just fabulous. He never disappoints!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It kind of melted my heart a little. Love the guys!

OH MY!

My new book boyfriend is Denver! I'm really looking forward to Armies story...well truly I'm looking forward to learning more about about all of the guys and their girls.

I love Lori Foster's men

I wasn't too sure about this series because of the MMA fighters. I am not a fan of the sport at all, but the books are still great. If you like Foster's other books you will like these too.

Great book

I love all of Lori Foster's books. All of the characters feel like family now. I've listened to a couple of books from this series. I loved this one but not as much as the other two I've listened to. Why? I'm not sure. I think for me the chemistry between the H and h could have popped a little better. However, the danger side story was excellent. I'm glad I listened to the book. I would recommend it to a friend.

Same pattern but better written than book 1

Well, well same song second verse. The Hero and Heroine start their relationship but, some bad dudes from her past show back up, in her life and the gang gathers around the couple to catch the bad guys. Again, Cherry, the Heroine, is emotionally scarred by the abuse she suffered as a teenager. Again, I was a bit disappointed that there was no mention of counseling. I just think it would add some realism to the plot if the victims of abuse sought counseling and healed, as a result. However, this is a work of fiction, so perhaps my opinion is wrong.

All in all, this book was better written and, even though the Heroine had some annoying hang-ups, the Heroine was a stronger person.

As always, Jim Frangione’s narration was spot on. Therefore, especially since the book is included in the romance package, it’s a worthy listen.
