1 star
After reading the first three in this series, I was really disturbed, and disappointed in, this book. There was detailed on page OW stuff/outside the relationship sex. That doesn't belong in romances at all. Warn me first so I can avoid it, because if I don't see a trigger warning on a supposed romance book and there's outside the relationship sexual content, I will give it one star every time.
The books portray Libby as being a good person. if that's that's the case, why was she saying the rude things in front of Snow that she did? Why did she sleep with Zach right after Snow arrived hurt? That was really sad and really horrible of Libby, especially since she knew what Snow just went through. It was really confusing because one minute Libby would seem like she was fine with being a substitute for Snow but then she got mad about it. She has no business being there anymore, and I hope all the kittens leave the clubhouse.
The conversation about former sex partners was overkill. Too much detail. Boxer never answered all the questions either, but if the answer was yes to what she asked or guessed, then he's disgusting because that's way too intimate to do casually. I was really bothered by that. It was bad enough that he'd been with all the kittens and slept with Libby the night Snow arrived and was injured and miscarrying. That's horrible. I couldn't like him after that. It was just too awful.
For real, we know the title of the book. Using the word 'brutal' a million times is not at all necessary. It didn't sound natural at all.
For a club that wants to be a family, they're really insensitive about having club girls. It's disgusting already, but they expect their women to be around other women they've slept with? I'm glad Snow brought that up. It's pretty cruel, and the kittens don't belong there anymore.
Overall, it wasn't good. The others in this series were better, if I recall correctly. There's promiscuity, OW stuff on page, overuse of words, missing words, a hatefully H, and other issues. I don't recommend this book.

Loved It!!
This is another great installment in the Knight’s Legion MC Series and this time its Boxer’s story that takes front and center. Boxer is a MMA fighter and also the Enforcer for the Knight’s Legion MC and is everything you could hope for in a hot, sexy alpha biker. He and Aspen/Snow were at one time teenagers in love but due to misunderstandings that love turned to hate.
Now ten years later and Aspen is hiding from her ex with her best friend, Boxer’s sister Jill and Boxer is rubbing his activities with the club kittens in her face. Will they realize in time that there were misunderstandings that tore them apart the first time? Can Boxer and Aspen ever find their way back to each other?
What a fantastic MC book filled with everything that checks off all the boxes in what I love about this genre!

I think this is more of a 3.5-4 star read. I really think my opinion is going to be in the minority, and it might just be me. I believe this author is very talented, but Brutal Boxer just didn't have that cohesive storytelling flow that the others do. It's still a very good read, but I may be a little biased as I wanted Dodge to be next.
Towards the end of Hellbent Hero, we get a little tease of Boxer's love life. His sister Jill's best friend Aspen is the same girl who dumped Boxer in high school. Talk about a tangled web. It's pretty common knowledge that she ghosted him, and instead of moving on, Box has taken that love and turned it into hate. He doesn't want to hear a thing about Aspen. As far as he's concerned, she's the one that broke his heart into irreparable pieces.
Now, Aspen's side of the story is told. She gave Boxer her heart at 16, and when he left for the Marine Corp, he broke it. The forever and ever that he promised her wasn't as permanent as she thought it would be. Once her world was shattered, she refused to talk about Boxer. As far as she was concerned, he was dead to her. Now, ten years later, she's escaping the devil, and the first place she turns up is at the gates of the clubhouse. The only problem is that she doesn't know that Zach, her high school love, is now Boxer, the MC's enforcer.
The setup for this story is already there. Two high school sweethearts fall apart over a miscommunication. They're too young to realize that if they just talked to each other, they could have easily fixed the rifts in their relationship. This part in the story doesn't really bother me. It's to be expected that they are not the same people they once were. They're jaded with rough edges, which makes it too easy to wound each other. Underneath all of that, there is still a relationship that burns, but they're going to have to dig deep if they ever want a chance at reconcilliation.
I did enjoy this book, but there were some things that I didn't agree with or that I thought could have been explored a little differently. Boxer's a typical ex that won't go away. He doesn't want Aspen, but he doesn't want to let her go. For the most part, he just wants to inflict as much pain as he can. The MC is his territory, so in his mind, she'll just have to accept the way things are. However, Aspen is stronger than she appears. Knowing that she's mistakenly brought danger to the MCs door, she's counting down until she can leave and never look back.. If she's gone, then everyone will be safe. Who cares if Boxer's trying to make her jealous with club girls? Aspen has already buried her feelings once. This time won't be any different.
I have said before that when a character commits unforgivable sins, as an author, you have to make the reunion above and beyond. There has to be some form of substance. They just can't accept each other without some sort of grand gesture. It doesn't matter how good the story was. It will instantly fall flat. I think that's what happened here for me. One of the main themes is that there is still love underneath the hate. However, Boxer's actions are questionable, and Aspen takes verbal pot shots to survive. They spend 75 percent of the book in conflict, so when they finally start figuring out where they went wrong, it's like a quick 360 in a matter of a few pages. I would have rather had a faster timeline: hate, reconnection awkwardness, love, and then danger resolved. The end.

Great Enemies to Lovers, Second Chance Romance. I loved Boxer and Snow.
January 18, 2022
Naomi delivers another fantastic book that grabs your attention right from the start. In this second chance, enemies to lovers romance will rip your heart out of your chest, stomp on it and put it back in. Boxer and Snow's story will you riding on a big emotional rollercoaster but it is worth every high and low.
Snow, Aspen, thought she was marrying the man of her dreams however, over the years it becomes aware that she is not living the life she dreamed of. She is being mentally abused as well as being held a prisoner by her husband. He wants an heir and she will give him one. She escapes but is found by members of the Knights Legion MC, all battered and bruised. She is brought to the club, where her best friends lives and the man that she was in love with as a teenager, Zach, Boxer. She was a teenager when Zach left for the marines, and she never heard from him again. When Snow sees Zach, she relives the heartache that she lived ten years earlier. What happens when they finally talk? When they find out that her husband is on the way, what will the club do for her? Can she survive time with Zach? Will there be broken hearts again? Can Snow stay safe?
Boxer is the club's enforcer and an underground MMA fighter. He is enjoying his New Years' Eve when members of the club bring his ex-girlfriend, of ten years ago, into the club. She is in bad shape but Boxer tries to act like he is not concerned. When he finds out she is on the run from her abusive husband, he starts to rethink his feelings. He fights this draw that she has on him. He tries to go with the kittens of the club, but Snow invades his mind and heart. When he has to take her away for her safety, things get very tense. Situations from their past come to light and it is not what they both thought. Can Boxer let his guard down and maybe give Snow a chance again? Will he be able to forgive her? When a tragedy strikes will he be able to get past what happens?
Naomi's writing is outstanding and gripping. She throws so many twists and turns at you that your head is spinning in circles. I highly recommend this book, in fact, this series is a definite must read. Naomi never disappoints with her writing or her books. I cannot wait for the next installment in this series.

Disappointing
I am really sad to say this installment fell flat. I was obsessed with the first and second books in this series . Hero’s book was a bit less likable but still a decent read . This one just lagged on too long . The couple didn’t even have a as kiss until 91%. From 91%-100% the ending was rushed. The beginning was good until after they saw one another again where Boxer slept with Libby and kissed her in front of his ex to make her jealous . None of the guys did this kind of thing in this series and I liked that. I wouldn’t consider it cheating because they were in no way together but it was a spiteful thing to do. Libby was friends with the old ladies and as a reader I liked her and I never like club girls. The author ruined it by making her the enemy . We don’t find out what the couple broke up over until 91% either . You can read the first 20% and the last 10% and you know the story and the parts that matter. To read the next book you need to know the ending of this one so I would recommend that you read it . I have been waiting for Dodge and Emilee’s story so I will definitely give this author another shot but I would never read this again .

I give this book 4 stars rounded up to 5.
Possible SPOILERS!
Why not just give the 4 stars, you ask…? Because, I can’t, in good conscience, deduct a star for what I feel is my own personal hang-up. Especially considering this author is legit kickass. Plus, she totally warned me to avoid this book. (On her FB Author page, cause she’s awesome like that.) And, no joke, it was a great book. Really well written, great character development, engaging story. Don’t let my issue hold you back from reading this installment in a mega-awesome MC series.
Trigger warning for this book, if you have any issues regarding OW/OM with the main characters, be forewarned. If you feel, like I do, the need to read every book in the series, don’t skip this one, though. While I loathed the interactions with others, I still felt all the feels for this couple. So, gird yourself and read it if you want the full gamut of this series. This Author has the ability to bring you in emotionally and have you invested in these characters.
Alright, (cracks knuckles) let’s get to the actual review…
Boxer (Zack), is an MMA fighter and the enforcer for the Knight’s Legion MC. He’s been with his brotherhood for years and has all that yummy biker-ness to show for it. Add in he’s huge and buff, and we’re good to go.
The relationship between the two main characters began when they were teenagers, young and in love. Misunderstandings and hurt feelings drove them apart and created a hatred for the other one they’ve been fueling for the past decade while apart.
Aspen (Snow), is running from a deranged ex and goes to stay with her best friend, Jill, who is Boxer’s sister.
After so many years apart, Boxer and Aspen are thrown together and constantly reminded of their time together. Which, continues to fuel their hatred, but also reminds them how much they truly loved the other. As well as (WARNING!) the fact that Boxer continually throws his sexual relationship with a Club kitten in Aspen’s face. Plus, Aspen is getting out of a relationship, so that’s also in the mix.
Possible spoiler! While trying to deal with the crazy ex, things come to light that illuminate the fact that they were hating each other based on a complete misunderstanding. So begins their journey to find their relationship again.
Deep sigh, I really enjoyed these characters, for the most part. I’m not a fan of a guy that feels the need to man-slut it up for the sake of “hurt feelings” and revenge. However, I realize this is commonplace for most MC books. My hang-ups, though, didn’t allow me to enjoy their relationship fully, unfortunately. While I enjoyed reading about them and finally finding out about the missing love of Boxer’s life, I wasn’t able to get past his hookups. I know (!), I know. Be mature, blah, blah, blah. Lol. I just couldn’t. Aspen’s worries regarding her ability to live near females Boxer has screwed (and it’s ALL of them) was difficult for me. At the end, though, she seems to have moved past it. Good for her! I’m not that great of a person. Like…at all.
Suffice it to say, I’m glad I read it. If for no other reason, it’s a continuation of a really great series and involves past characters and pertinent information I felt I needed to read in order to continue the series. (Which, I’m definitely going to do.)
I received a free ARC from the Author in exchange for my honest and voluntary feedback. Thank you, Naomi Porter!

I'm telling you right now, Naomi Porter is absolutely a brilliant author who draws me in her stories & makes it impossible for me to put them down before I'm finished. I'm saying this because if she weren't so talented, I'm not sure I would have been able to stomach the things that Boxer did for a cool minute or would I?! See, he's convinced that Aspen (his Snow) broke his heart so he hates her deeply which made him act like an a** more than once. She ends up at his MC really hurt, and needs help (she didn't know he was part of the MC), but he's so in his feelings that he was terrible about it. Little does he know that she wasn't the one at fault, he was as immaturity took him over back in the day, and it set them both on a painful course. So the push & pull was seriously frustrating as all hell because I wanted to hit him in the head so many times with some of his current actions, not to mention a couple of his brothers as well. These two were meant together, but the reason she ended up at the club is out there trying to hunt her down, so will they be able to keep her safe in order to put the past to rest?! I promise you that despite what I've already said, there's so much more to the story and you don't want to miss out! I know I sound crazy, but I am who I am LOL, and I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL!

Oh Boy! The 'Brutal Boxer' was absolutely brutal for my heart and emotions.
If you are a 'ride or die' Knight's Legion MC avid reader like moi then you know Zack (Boxer) and Aspen (Snow) are ex-lovers with history. After ten long years, circumstances bring these two together again.
With mutual feelings of hatred and anger towards each other can these two find a way to forgive and forget? Or are their broken hearts and emotional scars simply too deep to heal and find a HEA with each other?
Zack and Aspen's love/hate journey slayed my heart. The love they still share for each other is heartbreakingly evident, but sadly at first the anger burns brighter.
But....
With Snow in danger will Boxer really be able to stand aside? Or will he protect the only woman he has ever loved and fight for a second chance at a forever.
All the feels and emotions as our devoured Snow and Boxer's story which took me on a journey about first love, heartbreak, lies, misunderstandings, regrets, and fighting for your soulmate, and a HEA.
I could feel their pain which ached my heart, but seeing the bone deep love they shared for each other warmed my heart and me rooting for them.
The suspense had me on edge, and I enjoyed the moments of well placed humour, steam, and romance.
And...
The OW/OM drama (as warned) was damn. I held my breath, my heart hurt, and I felt so frustrated at some of their antics and actions.
But thankfully after some twists and turns, the storm subsided, and I was left with a warmed heart and big cheesy smile with that Epilogue.
I loved this heartbreakingly beautiful story and with so many characters I adore in this world I can't wait for each of them to get a HEA.
Bring on the next book!!! Maybe like tomorrow? hehe.
A highly recommended read and series!!

Zack and Aspen's love/hate journey slayed my heart. The love they still share for each other is heartbreakingly evident, but sadly at first the anger burns brighter.
But....
With Snow in danger will Boxer really be able to stand aside? Or will he protect the only woman he has ever loved and fight for a second chance at a forever.
All the feels and emotions as our devoured Snow and Boxer's story which took me on a journey about first love, heartbreak, lies, misunderstandings, regrets, and fighting for your soulmate, and a HEA.
I could feel their pain which ached my heart, but seeing the bone deep love they shared for each other warmed my heart and me rooting for them.
The suspense had me on edge, and I enjoyed the moments of well placed humour, steam, and romance.
And...
The OW/OM drama (as warned) was damn. I held my breath, my heart hurt, and I felt so frustrated at some of their antics and actions.
But thankfully after some twists and turns, the storm subsided, and I was left with a warmed heart and big cheesy smile with that Epilogue.
I loved this heartbreakingly beautiful story and with so many characters I adore in this world I can't wait for each of them to get a HEA.
Bring on the next book!!! Maybe like tomorrow? hehe.
A highly recommended read and series!!

After the glimpses we've had of Snow and Boxer throughout the last book I couldnt wait to get my hands on this and was lucky enough to get a ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Now where to start?
As with all Naomi Porter's book the writing was flawless, the story flowed smoothly my emotions went haywire and my hand is cramping from holding my kindle from start to finish of this book because I just. Could. Not Put. It. Down.
A second chance love that is so deserved my heart broke for both of them.
A decade has gone by and despite the hate they hold for each other, love wins out every time.
"Truthfully, though. If a magic pill could wipe my memory free of Snow, I wouldn’t take it. Her memories meant too much to me"
For Snow though, the hurt was too deep and she would protect herself from feeling for him again.
"But Zach was with his lady. I didn’t care onebit so long as I didn’t have to see him. He was my past. The asshole meant nothing to me".
Boxer is up and down on his emotions hating her one minute and wanting her the next but Snow is adamant after what she believes to have happened and how his behaviour and words make her feel that there is nothing left for them anymore.
“I want to be out of your life just as much as you want me out of it. All I need is a passport and money for a plane ticket. Then you won’t have to ever see me again.”
As always, I'm on the edge of my seat wandering what the hell happened and what WILL happen and again as always I wasn't dissapointed.
Don't hesitate to grab this book if you love lovesick MC alpha males. If you haven't read the first 2 books it is recommended you do so to fet thr full back story of the previous characters starting with savage storm https://www.amazon.co.uk/Savage-Storm... also available on KU.

This author has moved up my list very fast of great authors. I don’t think I’ve read anything that I don’t like from her.
This book is filled with action & tons of emotions. Aspen & Boxer have a huge issue with each other. Although they love each other, can they actually talk and find out what the problem is? It’s sad when you see two people with such chemistry stay apart all bc of someone else who was just trying to help. I really liked Aspen and my heart breaks for her so much.
Seeing the end story made everything worth it.

***Review copy requested and reviewed on behalf of OMGReads Blog***
Brutal Boxer is book four of the Knights Legion MC Series. This is a second chance, enemies to lovers, MC romance. I think this was the best book in the series so far. There's death, destruction, chaos, betrayal and so much more. The story was unpredictable, heart breaking, edgy, gritty and at times jaw dropping. This isn't your cookie cutter romance. There's hurt, betrayal, and loads of pain. And those letters to Snow, they are heart wrenching to say the least.
Boxer is FULL of anger, hate, and misery. I can't say I blame him and he has every right to be. You'll understand even more when you read those letters. Snow is stubborn and suffering through many internal, emotional, physical traumas herself, Old and new. But she's a warrior and pushes through. It's just too bad all these years were wasted away, years they will never get back. But true soul mates will always find their way back to each other. They're kismet. And now I can't wait to get my hands on Dodge's book!!

I’ve actually come to love this author! So of course I was excited to receive an ARC of Brutal Boxer. Let me tell you, at first I didn’t know if I was going to like this book. I didn’t automatically connect like I did with Storm and Hero. But this story had so much to offer so I had to give it my undivided attention.
This is a second chance romance. Snow and Boxer are high school sweethearts that experienced a traumatic breakup and are now seeing each other for the first time after 10 years. A lot has changed. Boxer is now the enforcer of the MC. While Snow is running away from her ex abusive lover. Being reunited is anything but pleasant. They hate each other.
My first critic would be that I absolutely did not like the switching of POVs. I would have been okay with the mc’s POV but I didn’t think it was necessary to add others.
My second most common critic is the use of poor communication as a conflict.
However I was able to overlook that because the way this story unfolded and exploded was insane. I cried and I did not expect that AT ALL. I just didn’t think this story would go there but it did. It made it all worth it though. I grew to love Boxer and Snow.
Thank you for this ARC Naomi Porter and team. All my thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was a HEA that was LONG in the making and it made it oh so sweet when it did happen!
Boxer and Snow had a massive falling out and a lot of loathing and down right hatred followed that fall out... a meddling sister/best friend did not help that falling out.
This second chance/high school sweethearts/enemies to lovers story did a number on my emotions in the most heartbreaking but beautiful way! This was the best written second chance story where that there was so much background and heartache that I have read in a long time. The plot was realistic and believable but held me on the edge of my seat and kept me emotionally invested the whole time.
Part way through there is an unexpected twist that broke my heart and it was so well placed that it makes all of the build up and anticipation that much more worth it.
Job well done, Naomi - you are crafting an incredible series with the Knight's Legion MC.

This was an absolutely amazing fourth book in the Knight's Legion MC. The two main characters Boxer and Snow have a chance that rarely ever happens for anyone in a lifetime, rarer than rare to many. Boxer is too stubborn to admit his true feelings for Snow and this could cause problems and a different outcome.
Freaking love that Boxer is a true Alpha Male and he is a great MMA fighter and also the Enforcer for the Knight’s Legion MC. He sees what he wants and even though he tries to fight it will he win her heart or lose something he can never find again?
This author gave you so many emotions in this read and they were love, hurt, pain, lose and revenge. And parts were an thrilling emotional rollercoaster of emotions and lots of twist and turns and suspense

Ahhhh I love this series so much. This is the fourth book in the Knights Legion MC series and I just love each book more and more!
This follows Zach aka Boxer, the MC’s enforcer, as a blast from the past is thrown back into his world. His first love Aspen comes barrelling back into his life and he is a mess to put it lightly 🤣
Boxer and Aspen were together when they were 16 and 14 for two years before he enlisted in the marines. A miscommunication between them and Boxer’s sister led to the demise of their relationship and 10 years later they’ve both struggled to fully move on and blame each other for what happened.
Throw in a psycho keeping Aspen as his prisoner, an escape and him chasing her and you have a whole lotta drama! I was obsessed with this book and story. I loved the characters so much. Every book I read I think I can’t possibly love the next story more and then I just do!
I highly recommend this series if you’re an fan of MC romances! They’re really good and so well written with likeable characters and brilliant storylines. Plus Naomi certainly knows how to write a sex scene 🥵

If you liked/loved the other books in this series as much as I did (They're all amazing) then you'll love Brutal Boxer! The way Naomi Porter writes Boxer & Aspen 'Snow' is beyond words. I got so into this book that I didn't realize it was way into the morning hours. It's really hard to put down her books, let alone any book that I'm into. I absolutely can't wait for the other books in this series; my favorite couple used to be Storm & Madeline but as of today it's Boxer & Aspen.
Bonus was that there was no grammar mistakes, not that I expected any.
In simple words: it's an amazing read & definitely worth it.

MY FAVORITE of the Knight's Legion MC series. Hands down. Boxer is so freaking hot. I need him as my book boyfriend forever. Though Storm and Angel will always have a special place in my heart, I LOVE this book so freaking much. I was glued to my seat the entire time. So much push and pull. So much angst. So much MYSTERY. You have no clue why this couple can't seem to be together but once you get all the puzzle pieces you realize Naomi is a freaking genius because OMG it all makes so much sense. Read all the KLMC books. Especially this one.

I loved every second of Brutal Boxer. The second chance romance that plays out within these pages is one for the ages. You know what they say about love and hate being the 2 sides to the same coin.. Well you will definitely get that between these pages. Boxer and Snow are absolutely perfect for each other. The love hate push pull between these two just make the book so much better.
I will say the author does an amazing job when writing emotions. You will feel what these characters feel. The heartbreak, the anger, the jealousy, and ultimately the love they have for one another.
I have read every book in this series and each book is better than the last.

If you want to understand the club dynamics and friendships it is an absolute must to of read the previous installments before reading this book.
This is the story of Aspen (Snow) and Zach (Boxer) and is a second chance at love trope, you are taken on a very emotional ride, you will laugh, and may even shed a tear and have many moments in between.
Just remember this is a dark romance and ensure you read the trigger warnings.

My first and last time reading this author, for sure.
Spoilers:
I don't have any clue how I was supposed to root for a guy who decided he hated his ex so much he didn't care that she had been abused, was in a car accident and suffered a miscarriage. Instead of feeling any kind of empathy, he just went and had sex with some girl and told the club he didn't want her there (implying they shouldn't bother helping her).
Also, the book is far too short for them to spend that much time hating each other without actually addressing why they hate each other. Not that I cared by the time they finally sorted their stuff out. I was pretty disgusted by the male mc and his actions towards not just his heavily abused ex, but women in general.
Again, how am I supposed to root for a guy with seemingly zero redeemable qualities?
Don't even get me started on all the joyous sex they have after the male MC's sister is just brutally murdered. The sister that is also basically the only friend of the female MC. It was giving Feyre and Rhys boinking to the sounds of war and death, but worse.

This is the 4th book in the series and I can I was not disappointed there was so much emotion in this book. I finished it 4 days ago but I couldn't write the review until now as I was so blown away by it there was pov from not only the main characters but from the previous characters we have met which gave us parts of the story that in normal books we wouldn't be given especially when the other characters are not there.
Snow and boxer are high school lovers so much in love but with the misunderstanding meant there were pulled a part and 10 years of bitterness and heartbreak meant life has changed for both if them boxer found his mc family and snow a man who that wants to own snow under the misguided thought of love but he is a dangerous and this means they are thrown together and most get over the past to have a future but happily ever after doesn't mean loss isn't part of it and betrayal doesn't come from unseen places.
I highly recommend this book but ensure you read the first 3 books so that you understand the back stories

This story is about second chance at a first love. This book started off with a bang and finished the same way. Amazing story that had everything. I loved Boxer and Snow's story, it was a hard read at times due to the story matter. I have loved this series and all the complex characters and their stories. Highly love this author and how she writes books with hard stories that leave you moved at the end.
~~~~~~~~~~Julie's ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~
Boxer and Snow have a chance that rarely ever happens. He is too stubborn to admit it but they both still love each other. A lot of danger and a few truths might just set them on the right path. Excellent writing.

Holy Guacamole Batman. Naomi Porter has written another amazing read. Brutal Boxer is book four in the Knight's Legion MC. This book just throws you right into Aspen's precarious situation and takes off from there. This book does contain pregnancy loss so if that's one of your triggers, be sure to read cautiously. So many things happened in this book that actually sour out loud. I can't wait to see what Naomi guys us with next.

Brutal Boxer by Naomi Porter is book 4 in the Knight's Legion MC Series. This is the story of Zack 'Boxer' and Aspen 'Snow'. I have read the previous books which did add to my enjoyment of this one. Zack and Snow where childhood sweethearts but they things happened that broke them up leaving hard feeling toward each other. Now in their present day which is about 10 years later we find that the relationship Jill has been in was abusive and she on the run. Staying in touch with her best friend Jill who is also Zack's sister she ends up meeting him again. This was a good second chance romance.

Second chance and angst
This book gave me all the feels. From feeling betrayed on behalf of one love interest, to anger over the reason things fell apart, heartbroken over the loss. Finally, satisfied and happy with the ending.
If you want suspense and love second chance stories, I definitely recommend this book!!

Brutal Boxer was Brutally Beautiful
Okay so Naomi Porter can not do wrong in my opinion and Brutal Boxer was no exception.
The “misunderstanding” that launched the entire position of the book was heartbreaking, believable, and in the end fate was unwilling to overlook it. You’ll have to read to find out what I mean!
Snow and Boxer both had a lot of pain to overcome to get back to each other, and the slow burn of them working out their issues had me wanting to shake them!
I wanted more of them post reconcile, but in the end I got the HEA I was wanting.
Read this book. Read all the books in the series. I can’t wait for Dodge!

OH MY HEART!!! I was completely invested with this series from the first book. Every book after that entangled me with these characters and the journeys this author took them on BUT, Boxer and Snow's story was one I waited for. They pulled me into their chaos and oh my goodness these two are breathtaking. In this book you'll feel every emotion. This is an incredibly written second chance journey that just goes to show you that once you've found your forever, whether you're together the entire time or not, you will always find your way back. There's no shortage of action and excitement, plenty of angst and chaos to go around. Never a dull moment with this couple.
I believe I've found my new favorite book in this series and my new favorite word "Brutalicious". Job well done Naomi Porter. Thank you for another incredible journey.

Boxer and Snow’s story really pulls at the heartstrings. These two characters have lots of history together. What was once love has turned to resentment and bitter feelings. Will they ever be able to work things out?
This book was really good, it had action and pulled out all the emotions. I found I just couldn’t stop reading once I started. So I ended up reading it all in one go.
I don’t want to say too much and spoil the story. So you need to read and experience for yourself.
