Extraction Point by Heather C. Leigh!!

Read the final conclusion to the Ricochet Series! 

 Extraction Point is NOW AVAILABLE!

ONLY $0.99
 
 Blurb
 Rick "Ricochet" Brennan served eight years as an elite Marine special ops Force Recon soldier. After an injury, and the terrible memories from that night, he retires and goes to work for his former Command Officer, Howard "Mack" McEvoy, at his training center in Atlanta.
 
Sanctum MMA appears on the surface to be a normal gym, training elite fighters to be the best. Except each trainer, hand-picked by Mack, possesses a special background that allows Mack to run one of the best-kept secrets in the country.  
When twenty-three year old Quinn Wallace finally escapes her abusive husband, she turns to her father’s old Marine Corps buddy, Mack, for help. Broken and skittish, Quinn finds herself surrounded by large, intimidating men— men who could easily overpower her. She avoids them the best she can, but when Rick turns out to be more than just a rough fighter with bruised knuckles, she finds herself wondering if she can allow herself to trust again.
 

Darra's Review:

I do agree with Sunny. This was a series was one I went thru in only a mater of a couple of days. The books transitioned perfectly into the following book. This is the last book in the series. You must read the first two to know you are knee deep in Rick's hotness.
I can't deny that I do love me some MMA/military guys. Rick takes the cake. Although he was a bit of a manwhore, he will remain a fave of mine.
As for Quinn. I felt for her. For her to remain strong and get through that horrendous marriage was amazing. You really felt the depth of how deeply scared her ex left her.
When her past comes and takes her away from Rick, his only thought was Quinn. He turned out to be a stand up man and would love to have a guy like that.
Love those endings to a series!
 
My rating for this book is a 4.6. The series went out with a bang. And that is exactly how to write a great novel.  

Sunny's Review:

 This series was a very quick read and I loved it. I am a big fan of the Alpha that is not too over the top. Rick was definitely an Alpha but he was not annoying and too much. I liked the MMA aspect of this series but I also loved the military ops. I liked Quinn. She fought to get out of a horrible situation. I am not sure that I agreed with some of the things that she did but I can understand why she felt the way that she did. For feeling like I was flying through these books I still felt very connected with the characters. Rick was awesome. Again, not over the top Alpha but still very much an Alpha. He probably needed some anger management but I wouldn't complain about some of his outbursts.
 
I recommend this series. If you are looking for a quick read that will suck you in from the beginning this is it. You will love the characters and enjoy the drama. I am giving Extraction Point 4.2 stars out of 5. Go get it!! 
 
Excerpt
“Hey,” he said calmly. “Why aren’t you resting?” Rick put his hands on her shoulders, gently massaging her arms.
Quinn’s eyes grew large and went to his gloved hands.
Fuck, she hates fighting. Now I know why she looks freaked out.
Rick yanked his hands away and took a step back. “I didn’t mean for you to see me fight, Quinn. I’m sorry.”
To his surprise, Quinn stepped forward, closing the distance Rick had put between them. He watched as she hesitantly lifted her arms, placing her hands on his sweat-slicked chest. Her eyes met his and his breath left in a sharp huff. The fear he had expected to see wasn’t there. No… Quinn’s eyes were dark and glistening with lust.
“I didn’t know that watching you fight would be so comforting. It makes me feel safe, and… turned on,” she murmured. Rick shivered as her hands ran down his torso, moving over each defined muscle until they were resting on either side of his waist.
“Turned on?” Rick swallowed, barely able to speak with Quinn touching him like that. She was only just about healed from the attack. He figured it would be months, if not longer before she’d be interested in pursuing anything physical.
“Yes, turned on.” Quinn’s fingers dug into Rick’s waist, her thumbs making small circles on the ‘v’ shaped ridges of his lower abs. Scorching waves of pleasure rippled down his spine, instantly making his cock come to life.
“Jesus,” he muttered softly. Using every last bit of willpower he had, Rick captured Quinn’s wrists, removing her hands from his body. “Not here, doll.” He glanced around, but none of the other fighters were looking their way. Still, he’d kill them if they saw the lust in Quinn’s eyes. That was for him, and him alone.
Quinn pouted, crossing her arms and glaring like a kid denied her favorite candy.
He couldn’t help himself. The sight of this tiny thing trying to look intimidating was funny. Rick laughed. “You’re too much, doll.” The corner of her mouth twitched up—it was just a hint of a smile, but it made Rick’s day. Quinn hadn’t smiled once since his team rescued her. Seeing some of her personality coming back flooded him with emotion.

Excerpt
 “Law breaker? Hardly,” she scoffed. “I just don’t want to go through the trouble to get a license and then have to change my…” The conversation came to an abrupt halt. Quinn looked up at Rick slack-mouthed, with discernible fear in her wide eyes.
     “Change? Change what?”
     She waved a shaky hand in the air dismissively. “Nothing. I don’t know what I was saying.”
     Rick knew she was lying. He didn’t even need the extensive interrogation training he received in the Marines to see the blatant lie.
     What in the hell is she hiding from me?
     He was getting damn sick of the evasiveness and the games that Quinn played. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the time or the place to get into an argument with her and he promised that he wouldn’t push her to discuss things. Rick silently seethed, clenching his hands under the table.
     The rest of the meal was finished quickly. Neither of them touched on subjects other than safe, impersonal ones, sports, traffic, and the weather.
     Fuck! I’m sitting here discussing the mother fucking weather while the girl I love slips through my fingers.
     Love? A bolt of fear shot through Rick’s heart, jump starting it until it was pumping erratically against his chest.
     I love her?
     Rick mulled it over as they drove back to Quinn’s apartment, turning it over in his mind a hundred different ways with no clear answer. He walked her up the stairs, waiting for her to unlock the door. As he stood there watching her, the sun glinting off of the golden highlights in her dark hair, it finally hit him, sucking the air from his lungs.
     Without a doubt, I fucking love her.
     Quinn opened the door, turning to say good-bye. This time, Rick wasn’t going to let her push him away. There would be no more keeping him at arm’s length. He loved her, and he wasn’t going to give up. Pride be damned, he’d fucking grovel on his knees if that’s what it took.
     Rick inhaled a deep breath and moved into the apartment, forcing Quinn to step back so he could fit through the doorway.
     “Rick, what—”
     Done with the bullshit dance they’d been doing, he silenced Quinn by crushing his mouth over hers, spinning them until her back hit the partially open door, slamming it closed. Rick pressed his weight against her, pinning her soft body against the thick slab of wood as he dominated her, thrusting his denim-covered cock against her abdomen. He could sense the exact moment Quinn stopped fighting, giving herself over to the pleasure. Her tense muscles relaxed and her mouth joined in, yet she allowed Rick to control the kiss.
     Lips and teeth mashed together brutally, Rick’s tongue plunging into the depths of her mouth. This wasn’t a gentle kiss meant to be romantic. No, it was a rough display of possessiveness, of pent up desire. It was all of Rick’s love and anguish coming out in one overwhelming display of need and power.
     He slid his arms around Quinn’s waist, gripping her round backside and pressing his fingers deep into the soft flesh. He tugged her hips forward, grinding their groins together almost painfully. Quinn moaned into Rick’s mouth, her desperate sounds acting like gasoline on the fire roaring through his body.
“Fuck, doll.”
