I am hooked on this series. When I started the book I wasn't sure how much time I had to read it but I wanted to get an idea of what I was starting. Then I read a paragraph, a page, a chapter, and pretty soon I was 1/2 way through the book and wondering when I could get back to it. There were times I found myself sneaking away to read a few more pages, finish a chapter, or just read a couple paragraphs. Tristan and Charlie are characters that I was invested in. They were characters I needed to know would be okay and together.

While Tristan and Charlie are wonderful the secondary characters were equally enthralling. Each had their own story to tell, each were there without question for their friends/family, and each were realistic. I'm excited to go and read the rest of this series, find out who these characters really are and how they play into the story.

Tristan and Charlie are both characters with rough pasts. Tristan has been burned by past girlfriends but wants to picket fence, 2.5 kids, and a loving wife. Charlie is running from her past and it haunts her. Immediately upon their meeting each other I could feel the attraction, hear the sizzle, and see the sparks. They are meant to be but can they both, especially Charlie, trust again?

Clinched is a hot, steamy, romantic, loving, and real story. I recommend picking up your copy.
