Blog Tour & Excerpt: ✩Ryley’s Revenge✩ by @LPDover

Title: Ryley’s Revenge

Series: Gloves Off (bk 2)
Author: L.P. Dover
UFC Middleweight fighter, Ryley Jameson, swore it would never happen again. He was done with his ex, and over the pain she’d inflicted when she left him. At least, that’s what he tells people. Maybe if he says it enough, he’ll begin to believe it himself.

Regretting her decision to let Ryley go, Ashleigh Warren comes back into town and confronts him. Holding only one secret back, she puts the rest on the line and asks for a second chance. Too bad he’s not going to let her off easy.

Camden Jameson loves his twin brother, but his jealousy runs deep. They may be identical in looks, but that’s where the similarities end. When Ashleigh comes back into Ryley’s life, Camden has the perfect opportunity for revenge. Two birds, one stone.

A journey to the Dark Side affects them all, but only one feels the true sting of revenge.

TRAILER

               

The magnetic feeling I always felt when he was near pulled
me to him. Out of the corner of my eye, Gabriella watched on in amazement, but
I couldn’t focus on anyone other than my fighter; the one I loved, but left
because I was afraid. I slowly approached him, biting my lip to keep it from
trembling. He lifted his weights, one arm at a time, his muscles bulging with
each curl. Those arms used to hold me, but I was too stupid not to stay in
their warmth and protection.
“Ryley,” I murmured softly.
Either he didn’t want to acknowledge me or he couldn’t hear.
Even my own voice sounded foreign to my ears. Moving closer, I stood in front
of him and took a deep breath. “Ryley,” I repeated. “Can we talk?”Setting the
weights down, he lowered his head and balled his hands into tight fists. His
knuckles were torn wide open and all I wanted to do was touch him. Without
looking at me, he stood and towered over me, glancing around the room. He
looked at everything, but me.
“Let’s go,” he demanded.
Before following him to the back, I looked at Gabriella who
frowned and shook her head. This wasn’t going to be good. I felt like I was
being led to slaughter by the way everyone watched me with trepidation in their
eyes. All I wanted was for Ryley to look at me and listen to what I had to say.
However, with each step I took it felt more and more like the end.
Once we got to the back, Ryley opened the door to an empty
office and turned on the light. As soon as I walked in, he shut the door behind
us and locked it. I swallowed hard as he stood there, head down, body coiled
tighter than a snake’s. I wanted to go to him and wrap my arms around him, but
I was frozen. I wanted to hear him call me angel like he used to when we’d make
love.
“I went to your house this morning. Your brother wasn’t too
happy with me. Did he tell you I came by?”
He stiffened and sighed. “No.”
“I thought as much,” I whispered. “I guess I can’t blame
him.” Panic started to set in and I could feel the blood rushing to my head. I
felt nauseated and lightheaded, but I swallowed it back as hard as I could.
“I’m so sorry, Ryley. I never wanted to hurt you. But you have to know, there’s
nothing going on between me and Colin.”
He scoffed and leaned against the wall, looking at my feet.
“It didn’t look like that yesterday.”
“I know what it must’ve looked like and I know you don’t
trust me after everything I did, but you have to believe me. All I want is a
chance to prove it to you, to prove that—”
“To prove what?” he exploded, lifting his fiery gaze to mine
for the first time. My breath instantly left my lungs and I faltered, tears
welling in my eyes. “To prove that I can trust you? That you want to be with
me? How the fuck do you expect me to do that?”
Shaking my head, I found the courage to move forward, tears
falling down my cheeks. When I lifted my hands to his face, he turned his head,
the connection gone. “No, that’s not what I was going to say. I was going to
say that I love you. That I’ll do whatever it takes to prove it to you.”
For a second it seemed as if he was listening, but then he
jerked his face out of my hold and moved away. “I think you’re missing the
point. You see, I don’t want you back. I’m happy with the way things are.”
“Really?” I choked. “So you get to screw whoever you want and
party it up? Is that what makes you happy?”
Smirking, he shrugged his shoulders. “That’s just the way my
life is. You wouldn’t even want me back if you knew the things I’ve done since
you left.”
READ THE SERIES IN ORDER

A FIGHTER’S DESIRE – PART ONE 

Two is always better than one.
What would you do if you were given the chance to spend the night with not one, but two fighters? Would you do it? Could you open yourself up to the pleasures they offered and do exactly what they said in order to pass on to the next round?
It was common knowledge that Ryley and Camden Jameson, well-known MMA fighters and identical twins, were just as aggressive and passionate in the bed as they were in the ring. The only problem was that if you didn’t pass their test on the first night, then you didn’t proceed to the next round. They loved a good fight, and that’s what they got when they met Ashleigh Warren.
Ashleigh knew what was going to happen when the twins approached her with a proposition, and needless to say, she knew exactly how to handle them … or so she thought. The rules had changed, and in order to get them both she had to first spend one night with each and last until they were done with her. It was a proposition she couldn’t refuse, but she knew it wouldn’t be easy to win. However, it was one that she was going to enjoy.

A FIGHTER’S DESIRE – PART TWO 

When you’re told to stay away from someone or something it only drives the urge to go after it more. In this case, that was exactly what happened. For years, Gabriella Reynolds—younger sister of MMA’s Heavyweight Champion, Matt Reynolds—was warned by him to stay away from his fighter friends; she deserved better and they would only break her heart.
Did she listen? Yes, for a while, but temptation can only consume you so much until you fall into its trap. There’s a certain fighter she’s interested in, and it just so happens that he’s her brother’s best friend, the only one that is completely off limits to her. However, she’s not the only one fighting temptation. Tyler Rushing can’t deny his attraction to her, but he’s afraid she’ll want more and he can’t give that to her. When he finds out that’s not the case … everything changes.

Secrets can be dangerous, but they can also be thrilling and intense. Gabriella and Tyler have no choice but to keep their time together a secret … and it’s a secret that’ll stay with them forever.
