About this eBook

Perfect for fans of Katy Evans and Sarah Castille, Sidney Halston’s scorching new MMA romance proves there are no holds barred when it comes to seduction.
 
As an Army brat, Violet Channing could never meet her dad’s high expectations. But in the eyes of her best friend, she could do no wrong. He even insisted that he should be her first kiss. Now Cain Sorensen is all grown up, hardened by years in special ops and always looking for a good fight. Tall, with striking blue eyes and impossibly blond hair, he’s a modern-day Viking warrior. Of course, Violet’s all grown up, too, and she’s ready to surrender to his every command.
 
Cain knows he’s bad for Violet. His work is dangerous, and his hobbies are downright deadly. As a private mercenary and a mixed martial arts fighter, he could never let such an innocent soul into his world. And yet his most grueling combat training is no match for Violet’s killer curves, hot touch, and suggestive glances. Now all of Cain’s most explosive fantasies are coming true—but once they cross the line between friends and lovers, there’s no turning back.

I think it’s safe to say that Laid Out is probably the most emotional book in this series yet, dealing with old friendships, devastating loss, redefining the future, and all the issues that come from having gone to war. If you’d told me after reading Against the Cage that there’d be a story like this one in the series, I probably wouldn’t have believed it, but Sidney Halston’s characters aren’t slightly modified versions of each other, and each story and couple has proven to be quite a bit different than the ones who’ve come before them. I’m still loving this series, and I can’t wait to get my hands on the next piece of it! ***FicCentral received this book from Random House LLC (via NetGalley) for free in exchange for an honest review.

4 ½ Stars First off, let me say that this is the first book I have read by Sidney Halston but it definitely will not be my last. This book was freaking awesome! Even though it is the 4th book in her “Worth the Fight” series you can definitely read it as a stand alone book. Cain is not your typical book hero. He brooding, unfriendly, stubborn and hard to get along with, so basically an complete jerk. However, for those who know him well they know he is loyal to the end and fights for those he loves. Growing up as an Army brat Cain had always counted on his two best friends, Jeremy and Violet. Following in their father’s footsteps, Cain and Jeremy enlisted and joined the Army. After tragedy struck on one of their deployments Cain left the Army behind and ran away from those he loved, including Violet, the only woman Cain would ever love but could never have. Now Cain works special ops as a mercenary and also as a mixed marital arts fighter. Both jobs are dangerous and deadly but it is the only things that keeps his mind off Violet and her killer body and smile. 1 (1) Violet always stood out in a crowd, but for all the wrong reasons, or so she thought. Being a curvy teenager and having a dad tell her she was constantly over weight left Violet without any self esteem. The only two people in her life who ever showed her any affection or who cared about how people treated her where her two best friends Jeremy and Cain. The three of them were best friends until the day that Cain gave Violet her first kiss and then left for deployment. Years later Violet can still feel that kiss on her lips like it was yesterday. Except the tall and lanky Cain that gave her that kiss has grown into a sexy brooding man who will barely acknowledge her existence. The book is a beautiful fast paced, emotional journey of love, healing and two people learning how to move on. I would highly recommend this book to everyone. I received an eARC of this book via the publisher and Rock Star PR for my honest review and opinion. All ratings and reviews stated are my own.

Cain was so mysterious in the previous books, and I was eager to read about the quiet, broody character. Unfortunately, this book was pretty disappointing. I don't like him as a character - he is mostly just a jerk. And he really does have only one thing on his brain. Violet is way too forgiving.
