When two of your favorite authors combine their minds, then the result is perfect! Outmatched surpassed all my expectations and it is one of the best books I have read all year! This book is steamy, funny and completely captivating!
Parker is a woman in a men’s world and in order to impress her boss, so she can keep her job, she needs a man by her side. She hires a fake boyfriend but she never expects to find in her way a gruff, dirty mouthed giant.
Rhys has left boxing behind but the burdens of his late father have fallen on his shoulders. He is trying to keep his brother on the straight and narrow and when his irresponsible brother arranges a fake date, he has to take charge. When he sees though a huge opportunity to save his gym, he has no problem posing as the pixie’s boyfriend.
These two are explosive together! Their banter is off the charts and their chemistry sizzling! I love their sassy interactions. Despite her size and her “geeky” exterior, Parker has an amazing attitude. She is smart, strong and decisive. Rhys has the qualities of a hero that I love. He is rough around the edges but with a heart of a warrior. He is caring, protective and honest.
This story is a feel good one. If you like enemies to lovers and fake relationships, then this story is ideal for you! I hope Kristen Callihan and Samantha Young will write again together because I could not get enough!
