Rivals in and out of the cage for years, Luca and Ty are vying for the same spot at a former UFC fighter’s elite gym, in the hopes that he will pick one of them to train. When they both get invitations, Ty and Luca think they’ve finally gotten the last big one up on the other, only to show up and realize they are now teammates.

The rivalry between the two reaches new heights, but the more time spent around each other proves that maybe they don’t actually hate each other as much as they thought they did—there’s a fine line between love and hate after all.

Luca and Ty are truly opposites and I really loved their grumpy x sunshine dynamic. The chemistry between them was off the charts and I loved the banter and hate flirting that made it so much better when the tension between them finally snapped.

Hooks In was my first MMA sports romance, but I have to say I’m a big fan. So ready for Ty and Luca’s HEA in book 2!
