GRR Reviews Billionaire's Inconvenient Obsession by Nadia Lee

Jane left her town to look for a job in LA, leaving behind the bunch of brothers who only see her as unpaid maid to cook and clean. She also got taken by a conman who took her money to pay his bookie and hounded her for more. When her car was vandalized while she interviewed for a position... and was turned down again... she was screaming at the sky at the injustice... and then came Iain Pryce... // Iain Pryce is a former MMA fighter with a dysfunctional family. He took his rage into the ring... and won, but after a barfight, where he almost killed two people, he sobered up, meditate, and took up aikido, a non-violent martial art... and shut out everybody else except the bare minimal. A wrong turn took him to the wrong part of LA... and a woman's scream caused him to stop... and the hurt in her eyes meant he can't walk away... He offered her use of his condo, and possibly a job at his brother's restaurant. But Jane's shaking his self-control to bits... even as Jane struggles to make a life for herself, figuring it's her chance to start over... then Jane's evil ex came after her for money...

As you can imagine, the conman ex did not fare well against a trained MMA fighter. It's one of those opposites attract but keep denying they can be together kind novels. Previously published as "Billionaire's Holiday Obsession", and I think I've read it under that title. Good polish with a trope plot, yet characters are deep enough to not be cliches.
