Recommendation
Never doubt Skye Jordan to deliver the goods. She kicks off this new series with the wicked give and take between Julia and Noah. While Julia is exerting control, Noah is spending ever moment unraveling her. LOVE! ~ Nelle [March 2015]
I’ve been going through a Skye Jordan withdrawal for months, and this story hit the perfect spot. We get great background story, character depth, a hot sex scene within the first few chapters. In fact, the in-and-out of the bedroom scenes still show Skye at the top of her game. Plus we get a few funny side characters that I hope we get their stories in this new series. [March 2015]
There isn’t a woman alive who wouldn’t want a Skye Jordan man of her very own. I was a huge fan of the Renegades, and this new series does not disappoint! Not only does Ms. Jordan pen good men, she writes the most wonderfully strong women. Engaging, entertaining, and hot hot hot. I can’t get enough. ~ Kyleigh Jane [March 2015]
Publisher synopsis
New York Times bestselling author, Skye Jordan, brings you the first in a hot new series: Xtreme Heroes.
Former Olympian turned physical therapist to the elite Julia Quinn knows all about pushing the limits. But when a sexual harassment suit costs her a dream job—not to mention her reputation—she takes on the biggest risk of her life. Rehabilitating the X Games’ most notorious bad boy might be just what she needs to secure the funds for her own treatment center. Problem is, the only kind of recovery her new client is interested in is under-the-covers freestyle—gear optional.
Daredevil snowboarder Noah Hunt is a rock star—on and off the slopes. A recent accident might have him down, but he’s far from out. He doesn’t care what the sexy therapist with the sweet curves says. He’s got sponsors to impress and trophies to collect, and taking things slow and steady just ain’t his style. A little dirty talk and a sizzling night later, Julia learns just how fast and hard he likes to play. Too bad for him, his heart goes all in, and one wrong move could cost him more than just his career.
