Hook Me: A he falls first, opposites attract, found family romance

4.5⭐I officially love the Gallo men, and I devoured Hook Me in one, sitting. As Michael and Mia's story was perfectly wonderful. Although frankly, I didn't think I would love another Gallo guy as much as I did City. But Michael had some serious game, and from the start Mia was in so much trouble. As the chemistry was off the charts hot, and I adored how he hooked Mia in with the date on the beach, and then with all the sweet things that came after. However, the story wasn't all sweetness and heat thanks to a crazy ex, and the Gallo family. Especially thanks to Izzy and Mrs. Gallo, who is desperate for all her children to settle down, and start popping out the grand babies. Yet, all of those elements combined brilliantly and made an entertaining, sexy, fun, and genuinely enjoyable story. That I would definitely recommend to others.

Michael works at Inked as a piercer and is training for the biggest fight of his career that will hopefully put him on the map to win a UFC Championship. After a training session at the gym on his way out, he knocks into a beautiful woman who changes his world. Mia is a doctor who is dedicated to her work of saving lives at the hospital and helping at the free clinic in town. Mia struggles with fact that Michael likes to beat people up for a living and when a secret Michael has been keeping tries to tear them apart, Michael will do whatever it takes to make things right with Mia. Michael and Mia's back and forth banter made for a very interesting story. Michael's crazy ex-girlfriend definitely had me shaking my head and glad that I was not Mia and the one in her path. The Gallos just keep becoming a more interesting family and I can not wait to get more of them. I enjoyed both narrators for this novel. Hook Me is the second book in the Men of Inked series by Chelle Bliss which can be read as a standalone or as part of the Men of Inked series and is written from the first-person point of view of Michael and Mia. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Samara Naeymi and Lee Samuels. I recommend this novel and give Hook Me and the narrators 5 stars.

Love City and Suzy! Sophisticated and Kayden. The large, loving and aggravating Italian family. Who wouldn't want that problem daily? We should all be so lucky. Wish their story had another book to take us through the wedding, buying or building of their house, children...not ready to let them go!!! City!Suzy!City!Suzy!City!...🙆
