Fall Knee-Deep In It
Yuri Joseph is a gorgeous and financially independent massage therapist but has found herself in a dead-end relationship. Her soft heart won’t allow her to leave him, because she knows that she’s all he has. So, she keeps giving him chance after chance to get it right. The time has come for her to cut the cord, but he keeps trying to control the scissors. For every solution she comes up with, he presents a problem. One day at work, though, she receives just the motivation she needs – Maverick Pierce.
A massage therapist that knew how and when to apply pressure was what Maverick needed, but what he got is the woman he promised himself he would one day have. As a worker for the city, his career is set. Personally, though, he’s lacking. His desire is to have a wife and kids… a family. At thirty-four years old, Maverick is ready to settle down, but can’t seem to find the one woman he wants to do life with – until Yuri lays hands on him… literally.
Sparks fly immediately, but Yuri is still living with her situation. Maverick is used to moving quickly when he wants something. He wants to bombard his way into Yuri’s life, but he also wants to do things her way… the least complicated way. Will he have the patience to wait for Yuri to get her life in order? Will Yuri stop prolonging the inevitable and allow Maverick to fulfill her every desire?

Great Read!!!!
Where is my Maverick? Lol. I fell in love with Yuri and Mavericks story. The way he catered to her and her needs and showed his loved for her was everything. And when she was on her cycle and he went and got the soup and other stuff and just catered to her until she was off was everything. I loved the characters and the storyline from beginning to end. I can’t wait to read more from this author!!!

Miss Monica! Gurl! You need to clone Maverick, and start handing him out like business cards! 😂
Loved how open and vulnerable he was to love, although he had been through it in the past. He zeroed in on Yuri, and that was it! Yuri! You felt for her from the very beginning, being so kind hearted and giving, to be dealing with a manchild! Their chemistry was off the charts, and I could not wait to see what types of nastiness they would succumb to. Sometimes you can be "too" kind. I was so worried for Yuri that she would not be able to right her wrong, and heartbroken for Maverick, as he had already fallen. But, Miss Monica never lets me down when it comes to crafting these beautiful stories of love, showing flaws and all. This couple was damn near perfect! Would love to know more about Yuri's parents. I bet they have a hell of a story to tell! Excellent work as always! 👍👍👍

Maverick gave me life
This book was everything Monica you did it again.. Overall i love how Yuri & Mavericks personalities connected easily. The chemistry between the pair was undeniable. The moment thier paths crossed they knew they were it for each other. Maverick was an alpha male who loved hard. Yuri used this as the push she needed to get away from her toxic situation with her ex. Love wins in the end 💕💕

Yuri and Maverick's story was so refreshing!!
I loved everything about their story because I could connect with Yuri on so many levels!! We are so alike and that how I felt in my marriage! I loved how Maverick took charge and gave her the love that she deserved. They both could have handled that Rocco situation better but I get both of their perspectives on it. I'm happy that he didn't judge her on giving it up on the first date. Men claim they don't judge it but most of the time they do. I loved how there wasn't any female drama neither with an ex from Maverick. The way he cared for her during her period had me swooning lol. It's hard to find a man who would do that for you. I loved the ending too. When he said he received what he had been wanting.

Perfect title for how their love developed.
Maverick and Yuri were sheer perfection. Instant attraction, magnetic chemistry, combined with combustible sexual chemistry. Yuri had a sweet gentle spirit and Maverick was ready for forever. (Cue R. Kelly's seems like your ready in the background). Everything about this journey was perfect. Humorous and realistic interaction between characters. Even the tension was great. My favorite verbiage was when Maverick said to her dad... We’ve only been together for a couple of months, but I knew from the moment I saw her. When she smiled at me, I wanted to start singing. Swoon!!!!!!! This is a awesome read.

I may be a slow reader but honey Monica Fontenot-Walters has turn my ass out with her writing ✍️ the very first book I’ve ever read from her don’t judge me lol 😆 but yes 🙌 I enjoyed every page of this book 📖 that damn maverick will have you having palpitations !!! 🙌 I can’t wait for the discussion 😘 if only I could have maverick as a lover!

Ride the Maverick!!!!
It was obvious from beginning that Rocco was just a space warmer because from Yuri’s and Mac first interaction you could feel the chemistry. There’s nothing more sexier than a man that’s in tuned with his woman, and the way that he loved Yuri whew!!!!!

MAVERICK ❤
Perfect title for a great love story. Maverick was the man that Yuri needed all along especially after dealing with Rocco. Who would've thought a first experience massage would lead to instant attraction and forbidden thoughts amongst these two. Maverick is that alpha who will have you swooning and fantasizing about how deep can he get once all inhibitions are thrown to the wind. Yuri may have been the professional masseuse in this story but Maverick was her personal masseuse in the bedroom and boy did he show her just how good he was at it. Had me wishing I had a Maverick of my own. Thank you Monica for giving us yet another alpha male that will not be forgotten.

This was a really good story. I love how in the beginning Yuri realized she deserved better and would not be putting up with Rocco’s abusive way. Just like a knight in shining armor, Maverick came in and showed her how she was supposed to be treated. This had just right amount of drama without prolonging it. Another 5 star read!

I loved this book. I empathize with Yuri's soft heart. Although, Rocco didn't deserve her compassion. Maverick sought after what he wanted. These two set their love ablaze and I enjoyed standing next to the flames.

Monica did a really good job with Maverick and Yuri’s story. Yuri is a masseuse and Maverick is her client; as soon as these two meet they had a connection right away. Thanks to Yuri’s mother and her no good BF Rocco- Yuri fell right into Mavericks lap, lol. I think the whole situation with Rocco also added the right amount of drama that was needed. Maverick was such a manly man, he provided good balance for Yuri because she had such a big heart and she needed that reinforcer in her life. I enjoyed reading about these two. They balanced each other out and I was clutching my pearls at their love scenes. I was like okay these two are not holding back! 🔥overall, this was a good read that moves pretty quickly because the characters fell for each other so fast but their love was realistic. Maverick was at the age were he knew what he wanted and and he wasted no time showing Yuri that he was all that she needed. Fantastic work! ❤️

Falling
Yuri had all the skills to be a Baddie, yet she did not always acknowledge the power in her touch was magical. The story touched on so many levels in a relationship, from the connection, attraction, and then the commitment to one another. I love the way the tale delivered on all fronts with a solid story, friends and family relationships, and a fulfilling love life for the main characters. Maverick had the perfect name for the ruggedly handsome guy I saw in my head. He matched Yuri's fly. And he was the right man for her to fall knee deep in love.

I like the characters and the story line. It was a very interesting read. At times I felt like the story was being dragged out. But overall it was a great love story.

Always the kind ones...
Oh my good news I truly loved Maverick and Yuri. Reading this story was really romantic and I felt as if I was reading glimpses of my own life. Always being kind hearted and nice by nature causes other to simply take advantage. At first I was a little sceptic of Maverick and his fraternities but understanding his backstory made sense as to the way he was.

Maverick was a true Alpha!
I was so intrigued with the story from the beginning. Yuri was too trusting and got taken advantage of by her ex, but in comes Maverick a sexy alpha who made up his mind that the moment he saw he had to have her! Their romance was hot and heavy, and fell quickly! Chileee his uncle was something else and I hope he get what’s due!! Great read!!

I have fallen knee-deep in love with Yuri and Mav! This page turner just would not turn me loose. Two home bodies took a chance and stepped out into the uncomfortable and unknown and discovered their forever. Yuri was so kind hearted but what sacrificing herself for someone who didn't deserve it; while Mav had everything a man could want except someone to share it with--plus he was such a gentleman! As has become may favorite aspect of Monica Walters' novels--I loved the role the character's parents play and how they support their adult children and have the ability to bounce between the roles of friend and parent all the while providing timely advice.
