Slade's Sanctuary (Saxon Family Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 70 ratings

Slade Saxon is the oldest of a family considered royalty in the fighting world. Now retired after winning three championships, he’s following in his dad’s footsteps by running their gym. But stepping away from that career has left a void in his. He’s lost, tired of those who only see his fame and what he can do for them.

Annie Bennett is a small-town girl that traveled to Florida to honor her grandmother’s final wish. When her path collides with that of a handsome stranger, she has no idea how completely things are about to change for her.

Unfortunately, Slade’s past is filled with those he’s defeated in the ring, marring the future they’re starting to look forward to as he gears up for the most important fight of his life.

Warning: Sweet, sexy, safe read! This author writes what she likes to read. That means there will be instalove, OTT Heroes, and, brace yourselves, virgin characters at times. If none of those float your boat, you might want to find another book. If they do, you're in the right place

Warning: This author writes what she likes to read. That means there will be instalove, OTT Heroes, and, brace yourselves, virgin characters at times. If none of those float your boat, you might want to find another book. If they do, you're in the right place.

My writing rules:

-Once the main characters meet they are not with any others, nor do they want to be.

-There will be no detailed intimate scenes between either main character and someone else.

- If the main couple is separated, whether, by days, weeks, or years, both will remain celibate.

- Each story will contain little to no other man or woman drama

    A quick and short read that most definitely packed a punch (pun intended hehe).

    I absolutely loved the interaction between the Saxon siblings. Each one has something going on that I can already tell will lead to a great series.

    The author isn’t kidding when she says she writes instalove romances, and that’s exactly what happened here. Once Slade and Annie met, the rest was history. As the weeks passed, their love only grew deeper and I enjoyed seeing her become part of the family.

    If you’re in the mood for a sweet, fast-paced, safe romance, this story is for you!

    This is the first book in the Saxon Family series and I can't wait for the rest. Ms. Gordon always knows how to leave us wanting more. Dual POV, virgin h, long time celibate H, no others after meeting, no abuse other than the h gets kidnapped and roughed up a little, epilogue 5 months and 5 years.

    It made me so happy to have an MMA book that was completely safe! So often any sports stories are based on less than stellar heroes. This story was safe and sweet!

    <b>HERO</b> Slade was a great balance of OTT alpha and sweetness. Annie crashed into his life (quite literally) and nothing was the same for him. He loved completely.

    <b>HEROINE </b> Annie was so adorable. She came from a small farm in Wisconsin. She didn’t have many life experiences so she was a breath of fresh air for Slade and his family.

    <b>OW/OM DRAMA</b> No drama from ex’s at all. It was so refreshing

    <b>STEAM</b> while there was some steam, I wouldn’t consider it overly steamy

    <b>SEPARATION </b> no separation

    <b>SECONDARY CHARACTERS </b> great family as secondary characters. I hope they get safe stories too! They were all well behaved in this story

    <b>VIOLENCE</b>no violence of a sexual nature

    <b>SAFETY</b> safe! No others after meeting!

    <b>ENDING</b> epilogues 5 months and then 5 years later!
