There’s nothing more delicious than a romance where the MMC falls first and HARD. In Neon Fantasy, Christian doesn’t just fall. He drops. Hard. Quietly. Completely. Long before Ally ever realizes she’s become the center of his world.
Ally’s life starts to unravel after a night she can’t remember and a boyfriend who shows his true toxicity. As a PR strategist in Vegas, she’s spent her career fixing everyone else’s problems while staying safely behind the scenes, but this time the damage hits too close. Ally is so sweet and kind. She’s just trying to rebuild her confidence, she’s the kind of FMC who makes you ache for her to finally be protected the way she deserves.
OH MY. Viking. Thor-esque MMC. Christian is older, blond, and broad shouldered. He’s an ex‑NHL enforcer and co‑owner of the Vegas Vipers. Most definitely supposed to be off‑limits to Ally, just a client and just a guy needing help with his struggling son. But from the moment he meets her, he’s gone. Beneath that guarded exterior is a man who sees everything she tries to hide. He totally falls first, falls hardest, and falls with a depth that feels like devotion.
The protector energy is perfection, Christian is steady, reverent, quietly intense. He doesn’t push. He doesn’t demand. He simply shows up, again and again, until Ally realizes the safest place she’s ever been is with him. And when dangerous blackmail and hidden betrayals close in, those professional boundaries melt fast, leaving a connection that feels inevitable. The spice is as absolutely delicious with these two, he’s so patient, kind and giving (iykyk).
Being in Vegas has this grit and danger you feel in each of the books, but the heart of this book is Christian choosing Ally early, choosing her fiercely, and never once wavering. Ally doesn’t just get a romance, she gets a man who worships her, who sees her worth even when she can’t, and who refuses to let her face her past alone.
