The only light in her life was a boy whom everyone agreed was destined for prison; but with his first kiss, he had set her soul on fire. Since the day the police dragged him away in handcuffs, she had managed to lead a quiet life, but when she attends an event fraught with mayhem, trouble resurfaces.
The one person she can’t forget...
Jamison Weston is the kind of guy dads load their shotguns for; endowed with a hot temper and a rap sheet as long as both tattooed arms. Known as “The Judge,” Jami’s hot temper, lethal fists, and cocky attitude have earned him respect and admiration both in and out of the ring. But just when he thinks he’s pummeled his past to death, Alyson Blake reenters his life.
Two paths collide…
After years of separation, Alyson is eager to reexplore the man who’s never left her thoughts, but for Jamison, she’s both the distraction he wants, but doesn’t need. As the two embark on a relationship that neither of them expected or bargained for, an outside threat closes in. When Alyson crosses the line of professionalism and takes her work home with her, her life is put in danger, leaving Jamison with no choice but to once again step in and become her protector.

Professional Reviews
4.5 Stars for Knockout - You are going to love this book!!!
Do you hear that? Yep that’s the voices in my mind screaming NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
As I stare at my Kindle the screaming in my mind becomes a whisper as I think OMG that was great!!!
Once again J.C. Valentine has a sure fire hit on her hands. Knockout offers so many things to the reader. As with her other books we are treated to a story that encompasses so much. A story of friendship, trust, feat, destruction, love, conflict and the yearning desire of a peaceful existence.
With brilliant character development you will find yourself melting into each and every characters thoughts and emotions.
One of the many things I love about this author is that every character holds their own story and the stories are woven together effortlessly.
I would be impossible not to fall hard and fast for Jamie with his tempting good looks, his powerful body, his dark and brooding past and intense desire to be his ultimate best. He is the perfect sinfully sexy alpha male.
Alyson is a woman with a scarred and battered past. Despite her past she sparkles like the sunshine dancing upon waves in the ocean. A strong and determined woman the depths of her willingness to give and correct the wrong in people’s lives is never ending.
This story is a delightful mixture of what happens when your past clashes into your present. Touching on so many issues this story offers something for everyone. A slow sensual, enticing and downright sinfully sexy love story. A story of hurt and betrayal and what it takes to rise above the old demons that haunt you fighting to invade the present. A story of wanting a life without pain, physical and emotional and the fight to achieve that life. A story of friendship and the bonds that tie us to others with such fierce and loyal devotion. Most of all this is a story that sheds light on a topic that happens way too much in our society. This story is a wonderful example of the raw determination and fight within to overcome and move forward.
Most of all this is a story of love in all its amazing forms.
Great Book!!
I loved this book!!
Jami and Ally were childhood friends from very abusive families. Circumstances tore them apart and they were brought back together by a twist of fate. This is a great story about lost love, loneliness and finding your way in life.
Ally is talked into attending a fight with her best friend Olivia even though she hates them. In the ring on this fateful night is none other than her childhood friend, protector and the one person she has always loved.
The story is told in such a way that you feel all the emotions that are going on throughout. I was thrown into the lives of Jami and Ally and couldn't stop reading, The fight scenes were amazing. I recommend this book to all and can't wait for the next book!! Great job J. C. Valentine!!
