STACKED UP
Worth the Fight #6
Sidney Halston
Releasing May 31st, 2016
Loveswept
Opposites attract in this seductive novel from the author of Against the Cage (“Funny, steamy, scorching.”—Toni Aleo), with a chiseled MMA fighter falling for a single mom who could use a real man in her corner.
Working two jobs to support her
infant daughter is harder than anything Penny Richards has ever done, but it
sure beats living under the rules of her stepfather, a television preacher who
demands a picture-perfect family. And if Penny hadn’t struck out on her own,
she never would have met Travis Calhoun. The intensely physical heavyweight
brawler has a way of drawing out her wild side. But Travis lives fast, with no
responsibilities—and that just isn’t for Penny.
Most of the women in Travis’s circle
wear tight clothes, high heels, and tons of makeup—not pearls or plaid
headbands. But once he works past Penny’s inhibitions, Travis discovers a
kindred spirit who longs to trust someone with her body, and her secrets.
Still, Travis can’t help but wonder if this rich girl is just slumming it
before she returns to her privileged life. Now it’s up to Penny to prove that
she wants her hard-edged, hard-loving fighter just the way he is.

REVIEW: STACKED UP (WORTH THE FIGHT) BY SIDNEY HALSTON
Stacked Up by Sidney HalstonMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
ARC Review: Stacked Up (Worth The Fight) by Sidney Halston
Travis was eye-popping, mouthwatering, pantie dropping delicious. The way he looked out for Penny and her daughter was fantasy material for sure. What made it even better was that he had no clue how awesome he was. Trademark Sidney Halston. Ms. Halston can get down and dirty with the best of them when it comes to her writing skills. I always knew there was more to Penny. She had a strength that was born of necessity. Her dreams seemed a long way off and life had not been kind but she loved hard and was willing to humble herself over and over in order to provide for her daughter. Knew Stacked Up was going to be good but it exceeded my expectations. It was marvelous: 5+++ review.

EXCERPT
“Yes I know. You’re perfectly capable of taking a bus and working at a strip club. Pearls and whatever-the-fuck-thing you have on your hair, and all. And, you’re absolutely perfectly capable of kissing me so hard and so damn sweet that I can’t fuckin’ stop thinking about it. It was like you poured molasses in my mouth and I can’t stop imagining how the rest of you tastes. But that’s not the point, right? The point is that I want to drive you home, so let me, okay?”
Her face warmed and her skin erupted in goose bumps. The man certainly had a way with words. Words that deserved a slap across the face, not a thumping heart or shaky knees.
“Well, it is late.” She conceded. “And it is better than taking the bus.”
“I’m glad the thought of me driving you home is just a few steps above a shitty public bus.” He said, laughing and she couldn’t help but laugh too.
USA Today bestselling
author, Sidney Halston lives her life with one simple rule:
"Just Do It"--Nike. And that's exactly what she did.
After working hard as an attorney, Sidney picked up a pen for the first time at thirty years old to begin her dream of writing. Having never written anything other than very exciting legal briefs, she found an outlet for her imaginative, romantic side and wrote Seeing Red. That first pen stroke sealed the deal, and she fell in love with writing. Sidney lives in South Florida with her husband and children. She loves her family above all else, and reading follows a close second. When she's not writing, you can find her reading and reading and reading. She's a reader first and a writer second. When she's not writing or reading, her life is complete and utter chaos, trying to balance family life with work and writing (and reading). But she wouldn't have it any other way.
