4.5 Star Review--Kyle's Return by L.P. Dover

Title: Kyle's Return
Series: Gloves Off Series #5
Author: L.P. Dover
Release: Available Now
Genre: Adult, Contemporary Sports Romance



I promised myself I’d stay away from dangerous men, but I couldn’t live up to that when Kyle Andrews came back to town. He’s a manipulator, a guy who’ll do whatever it takes to get what he wants, sabotaging anyone who gets in the way. After a fatal fight left him wounded, his UFC career came to a close. He has nothing, but he’s determined to get it all back.

My name is Megan. I’ve known violence, pain, and what it feels like to be scared to live another day. All of that changed the moment I refused to be a victim. Now that my psychotic ex, Alex, can’t find me, I’ve been given a second chance. I owe my life to my friends. The same goes for Kyle. Without him, I wouldn’t be able to feel.

Everyone hates him. But for the life of me I don’t. There’s something about him I can’t ignore. Being with Kyle makes me want it all. However, in loving a hated man, I didn’t know it’d bring the life I fled from back to haunt me. Everywhere I go danger lurks and bad things happen. Kyle believes it’s because of him, but I’m starting to think otherwise. I think Alex has found me, and if so, this time he’s not going to let me go.







As fast as I could, I rushed into my room and changed into some comfortable clothes. I didn’t care if they weren’t sexy because that definitely wasn’t what I was going for tonight. Not with Kyle and I alone in my house. When I got downstairs, he was still standing in front of my favorite picture.

“I take it you took these?” he asked, pointing to the canvas.

“How can you tell?”

He walked from one frame to the next and glanced back at me over his shoulder. “I don’t know. It just seems like something you would do. I knew there was more to your story than just a girl who works at a gym.” His gaze then landed on my pink, cupcake flannel pants. “Nice PJ’s by the way. If you’re trying to go for unsexy, you failed.”

Review:

I don't know if I can not tell the story for Kyle. I didn't think I could ever like him after everything he put everyone through but I do. I love him and Meghan's story.  Watching their lives from beginning to end just shows how both of them has grown.  

Kyle was a heart breaker.  He didn't care about anyone and it showed so many ways.  When he was on the dark side, he really was dark.  Although some of the things he fought for were good, it still couldn't make up for all the bad things that he did.  Kyle had to suffer more than anyone in the group did. He lost the two things that kept him sane. his sister and fighting.

Meghan's life was not an easy life.  She was put through everything imaginable with her ex. He always abused her and she took it. She knew it was wrong but when that's the only thing you knew, that was a good thing.  Meghan's limit came when she almost did the inevitable.  Would she have regretted it? Maybe but she would have gotten better.

When these two came together it was the most exhilarating that for both of them.  Playing hard to get was the best part but when you have passion like that there is nothing that can keep you apart.

This story was one of my favorites but all of the Gloves Off Series books were my favorites.  I loved Kyle's comeback and the struggle he had to go through to get there.  It made him a stronger person and he was better for it.

Kudos to L.P. Dover for a wonderful series!!





“The only way I’m going to let you come over is if you tell me you missed me this week.”

“Really?” I shrieked.

“Yep, now say the words, love.”

“No. That’s ridiculous. I’m not gonna lie.”

He snorted. “But you just did.”

I opened my mouth to say something and then stopped; he got me with that one. And judging by the satisfied chuckle he tried to contain, he knew it too. “Fine. You want to play games? Then it looks like you won’t be hearing what I have to say. Bye-bye, French fry.”

“Megan, wait—”

Taking the upper hand, I hung up the phone. He was going to drive me insane. I had to hand it to him, he could definitely get my blood pumping. I did miss him, but I wasn’t about to give in to his antics. If anyone was going to submit first, I wanted it to be him. I got my wish when my phone started to ring. Deliberately, I refused to answer it, hoping it’d make him feel the restlessness I felt inside.

With a smirk on my face, I pulled into my neighborhood. He was just going to have to sweat a bit longer.

To my surprise, that wasn’t going to be very long. Because in my driveway, there Kyle stood, beside a sleek, black motorcycle. I hit the button to my garage and pulled past him. He walked up to my door and opened it with a smirk on his face. “You are one stubborn woman, you know that?”

I knew Kyle would get his redemption in this book, but what surprised me is that the author somehow made me forgive him too. - Lost to Books
