Very intense, very dark even scary at times, Full Contact by Sarah Castille is not for the faint of heart. The setting is an unsanctioned underground fight club where there are no rules and may the best fighter win.
And the undefeated champion is Ray “The Predator”, no last name, just his reputation. Ray has one weakness though, tattoo artist Sia O’Donnell who can’t help but push the limits. She is supposed to be Ray’s light but Sia has a darkness of her own.
A happily ever after is not written on the stars for Ray and Sia, yet in the black hole that they inhabit comes a big bang which can be their salvation.
A powerful read that tugs at your heartstrings. Your heart goes out to both Ray and Sia. Beware though! To reiterate, Full Contact is not for the faint of heart. Ray makes Christian Grey look like a boy scout while Sia makes Anastasia Steele look like an altar girl.
Full Contact is Rated M for Mature due to violence and sexual content.

Ray wraps his arms around me and holds me tight as if something terrible has happened and he doesn’t want to let me go.
Full Contact. This is how Ray speaks when his emotions overwhelm him. I melt into his stillness. His body is hot and hard, his breath warm on my neck. He smells of leather and sweat, sex and sin. Nothing can tear me away.
When you can’t resist the one person who could destroy you…
Sia O’Donnell can’t help but push the limits. She secretly attends every underground MMA fight featuring The Predator, the undisputed champion. When he stalks his prey in the ring, Sia is mesmerized. He is dominant and dangerous and every instinct tells her to run.
Every beautiful thing Ray “The Predator” touches he knows he’ll eventually destroy.
Soft, sweet and innocent, Sia is the light to Ray’s darkness—and completely irresistible. From the moment he lays eyes on her, he knows he’s going to have to put his dark past behind him to win her body and soul.
