Beneath the Surface by M.A. Stacie

4 Stars
Dale Porter has followed his heart and ignored her head more times than she should. Now after finding her man, and best friend nocking knees, she’s off on a new job with an overly controlling man who makes her mouth water. Kyran Reese is stone. He runs his company, tries to keep his brother out of trouble, and secretly fights to release stress. Fights as in bare knuckle boxing in a club downtown. His attraction to Dale is immediate but she works for his company and is off limits. The “off limits” sign may be flashing neon but when Dale learns Kyran’s two biggest secrets- fighting and two sleeves of tattoos, the light on that sign burns out. I loved this story. I loved the modern, less then idolized characters and the steamy action throughout.
