Yes, please!! Knox was everything we could have wanted & more. I love the Holland Brothers & can't wait for the rest of them ????
We find ourselves back at Valley U...
We first met Knox in Tempting the Player, Hendrick & Jane's story. Stubborn, Broody, Hotheaded, Grumpy Knox. This Smokin' Hot, Cocky, Tattooed, Muscled Motocross Rider hasn't changed a bit and we wouldn't want him to. He's still prideful & stoic. A provider. But what we truly see? That while yes, he is all that, he's so much more. He's really a big giant teddy bear under that gruff exterior ????
With what felt like the weight of the world on his shoulders, Knox had to grow up rather quickly after the loss of his Mom and ultimately his Dad. Knox had to give up on his own dreams in order to raise his younger brothers, while Hendrick lived his life elsewhere. Now that the bond between brothers has gotten stronger and more solidified, Knox is finally able to pursue his Motocross dreams, until one moment in time cost him everything that he worked so hard for...
Avery Oliver is a Gymnast at Valley U and an Olympic Medalist. A beautiful little pixie, she's sassy, sweet and tough as nails. With her confidence shaken after a terrible knee injury, she's fighting her way back to being the best. What she doesn't need? A distraction. Little does she know she's about to get one in the form of the hottie otherwise known as Knox.
When these two meet, it's spicy tension from first glance. Sparks fly, lots of sparks and not necessarily the good kind, lol ???? Snarky banter is a lot like foreplay with these two ???? They are complete opposites, but you know what they say about opposites right?
Brought together by a mutual friend, Knox is determined to show that he's worth taking a chance on after his ego took a major blow when he lost his team & sponsor. And Avery is determined to prove she's as good as she's always been, if not better. She just needs to get out of her own head. Together, they could be absolute fire.
As long training nights turn into more time together outside the gym, it's only a matter of time before the attraction building between them bursts ???? While their chemistry is fiery, it's also sweet. Knox, who has a few walls built up, insists that things remain casual as he doesn't do relationships or feelings. But do we really believe that's the real case with this big ole Teddy Bear? And how long do you think it will take before one or both catch feelings?
Knox had me the first time the word "Princess" came out of his bad boy mouth. Whew! ????
With a few stumbling blocks in the way, these two ultimately figure it out, both personally and professionally. It was rather nice watching bay boy Knox fall... ????
