I totally grabbed this book for the cover. Hello??? Can't you see him?! Holy hotness!! And I don't regret it because the book was good. I liked both Alex and Breaker, and truly feel that Shooter was a strong supporting character. I wouldn't mind reading his book. He was hot and sarcastic. A lethal combination for me. But I digress...

Breaker is a... I think paid enforcer would be the correct way to describe his livelihood. His background is touched upon, not in-depth, but he had an abusive childhood and suffered the loss of his mother at a young age. He's a big guy and he does what comes naturally. Beat people up lol. But underneath it all, behind his ice blue eyes, lurks a man on the brink of an awakening.

Alex is just the chick to wake him up. She's not badass but she's got a bad temper (verbally, which is a huge turn on for Breaker). She's a hacker who has been hiding behind her computer instead of enjoying and appreciating life. Her background is touched on as well. No abuse, but she also lost her mom and seeks vengeance/retribution from a man named Lex.

When these two get it together, they're explosive. I enjoyed every minute of it. Their bickering was hilarious. She got to show him his soft side and it was sweet to read. These characters were great because they were determined, dedicated, and devoted!

There were a few editing mishaps, such as "ludeness", but they in no way detract from the story.
