Inter-dimensional Boxing Champion Jayne Hart has come a long way. Her past life is a simple memory the Divinity Corporation has no use to expose. After Jayne loses her last fight, she wakes up in a parallel universe. Sent to become a warrior’s wife, Jayne isn’t conditioned for love, a family or marriage. Jayne’s use to fighting for everything she has ever gotten and running before she gets too close to form bonds.

Ronen of Firewall has no desire to marry if it brings the misery he witnessed in his brother’s first marriage. He does not intend to choose a bride and is utterly shocked when Jayne lays claim to him. Their passion is explosive and Ronen thinks the Gods have sent him a blessing, until Lady Jayne decides it’s high time to run. Will Ronen finally allow his new wife to escape his grasp, or will Jayne discover it’s more fun to stay and play?

Fighting Lady Jayne is the second book in the Divinity Warrior series. Michelle M. Pillow’s characters are full of wit, charm, and sensual qualities. Jayne baffled me in the beginning. I couldn’t understand why she would run from such a handsome man who wanted to care for her. However, after understanding her background I could understand her fear of commitment and having her own family. Ronen was after my heart from the start, strong, stoic, smart, honorable, and handsome to boot. He’s the kind of man any woman would give her eyetooth to wake up next to every morning. They are perfect for one another; her sass verses his sensibility, made for moments of steamy passion and passionate fights. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in this series. I recommend Fighting Lady Jayne to those who enjoy knights who know how to treat their woman and the woman who keep them on their toes.
