"An electrifying dance into the sweet side of seduction. Ms. Ramagos has created another contemporary romance that defies the typical mold and delivers an amazing love story with plenty of fresh excitement and heart tugging moments. Ms. Ramagos proves yet again that contemporary romance does not have to follow the same old tired formula to be an astounding success. Congratulations on another fine masterpiece." 4 1/2 Stars eCata Romance "Tonya Ramagos has given us another pair of very realistic characters, and charged the atmosphere with an odd but mutual attraction between two people who love a hockey team, and are joined by friendship and relationship to the team center. Heavy Metal Seductions 3: Sports Beats is a passionate romp in love at first sight mistaken for just a case of simple lust, with a touch of domination and submission on the side. Heavy Metal Seductions 3: Sports Beats is the third book in this fascinating series. Tonya brings you the pain of a diagnosis of Alzheimer's on a family, the rocky road to a true love, and the hot steamy love scenes that blend the whole together in a poignant yet most delightfully hot and sexy way." - Romance at Heart From Regina at Coffeetime Romance 4 Cups
Ms. Ramagos has crafted a well-written and exciting contemporary romance with Reese and Melody’s story. The emotional and sexual tensions are so tight you expect them to break several times during the book, which just made it that much more enjoyable to read. The characters are well developed and real, as well as being easy to relate to. In addition, the situations posed within the plot are probable and lend to the reality of this piece. I highly recommend this book.

As in the previous books about the heavy metal band Façade, Tonya Ramagos brings these characters to life. Sports Beats showcases the fact that Reese has a life outside of the band. He and Melody are like oil and water. Both have strong personalities and needs, making for some very intense encounters. Unusual circumstances force them together so finally they begin to realize that they have feelings for each other. If they can both work through their insecurities, they may just realize they have something worth keeping. This well paced story had me hooked right from the beginning with its well rounded, realistic characters and the almost electrical attraction between Reese and Melody. Although it’s not necessary, if you’ve read the previous Heavy Metal Seduction stories, you won’t want to miss Sports Beats.
From Joyfully Reviewed
Sports Beats was a great contribution to Tonya Ramagos Heavy Metal series! Melody is a sexy and beautiful woman who has shut off her emotional self because she has all she can handle with her family. Reese is a good guy who simply does not believe in love. He cares for and enjoys his friends and does not begrudge their relationships, he just knows there is not someone out there for him. I enjoyed watching Reese and Melody interact and it is always so much fun to get a glimpse into past friend’s lives. Tonya Ramagos knows how to write strong, sexy, and irresistible characters that run the emotional gamut!! I love Tonya Ramagos and Sports Beats is another great addition to her series and I can hardly wait for the next one! |
When Melody Forbes butts heads with Reese Torrin at a hockey game the last thing she expects is to be pinned against a wall, breathless, hot and needy less than twelve hours later. The man is an asshole! But he’s the only one around when her life takes one unexpected devastating turn after another. She isn't looking for a relationship, can't offer a man the one thing most commitments demanded. But casual no strings, no promises sex…now that’s something she can handle. Until she realizes that a thin thread has begun to materialize between them and it’s growing thicker with each passing day. Reese Torrin has never believed in love but one look at Melody Forbes has the heavy metal drummer wondering if he could be wrong. The woman is hot! She’s beautiful, sexy, and tough. She’s also the sister of a close friend. Reese knows he should keep his hands off of her but when she literally jumps him, demanding he take her, how can he be expected to say no? And when she reaches a part of him that no woman has ever touched before, how can he be expected to walk away?
Excerpt Reese returned the woman’s wide-eyed glare, stunned that she had spoken to him at all much less in the way in which she had spoken. They had bumped elbows several times during the course of the hockey game but he hadn’t paid the least bit of attention to her. His mind had been focused on the game…until now. She was angry. No. She was pissed. At him. Oops. Sports fans were notorious for becoming so involved in a game that their every emotion heightened to dramatic proportions. His did. Whether live or on television, he became so entranced with the action that he probably sounded like a want-to-be coach rather than a spectator. And anger was the top emotion that showed through the most often in nearly every fan. He had watched fights break out in the stands because of an argument that had erupted between fans. Although… His gaze traveled over her and
he felt his insides stir. Rolling around in the stands with this woman
could prove to be more fun than the game. She was incredible! Her hair was
a blondish brown, probably shoulder length, he decided though he
couldn’t tell for certain as she had it pulled into a high tight pony
tail on the back of her head. Her skin was a sun kissed tan and he
couldn’t help but wonder if that tan spanned her every inch. Her eyes
were big and round and a deep shade of green that could make a man
melt…or squirm if those eyes held the level of anger they did at this
moment as she glared at him. She wore no make-up save for the light pink
gloss that moistened her lips. Shapely lips that were currently set in a
grim thin line. Lips that he found himself longing to feel against his, to
feel as they planted wet kisses down his neck and torso, to see as they
wrapped around his…

Sports Beats keeps the high level of writing expected from Ms Ramagos' Heavy Metal Seduction series. Sports Beats definitely bats a thousand or should I say shoots a thousand. This book has a little more drama than the previous two. Because of this I feel the characters are more well-rounded. Melody and Reese both have dimensions to their character that show greater emotion and heart. In my opinion Melody is the strongest heroine so far in this series. Her fears and Achilles' heal, her father, shows a softer, weaker side to this brash, tough as nails tomboy. Reese like all of Ms Ramagos' heroes is unexpectedly tender, loving, and still a bad ass rocker. His fears and internal struggle of not wanting to fall in love is written very well. His and Melody's careening course together is a wild ride with moments of humor, intense passion, and emotional highs and lows. As with all of the Heavy Metal Seduction heroes you initially cannot comprehend trusting and loving a musician who is sexy, popular, and carries a past full of women and wild times but Ms Ramagos has made all three thus far wholly loveable and trustworthy yet she does not emasculate them or make their change in lifestyle unrealistic or forced. I am anxious for the next installment in this series because a bit of mystery surrounds it and a new band member is introduced fully.
