Fighting to Forgive
by JB Salsbury
What do you do when everything you avoid, turns out to be exactly what you need? Easy and predictable, just the way he likes it, Blake Daniels flies through life the way he burns through women: on his terms, no regrets. With his fighting career in full swing, he’s on the threshold of title contention. But when his training is compromised by injury, the stakes grow impossibly higher. The rage that fuels his punches also chips away at his focus, and he risks losing everything he cares about. He won’t let that happen. Not again. Layla’s through with men. After a marriage that never should’ve happened, she hopes to reclaim the pieces of the woman she lost years ago. Emotional abuse has left her insecure and terrified. A master at faking what she’s not feeling, she masks her self-doubt in false confidence. She’ll never let another man hurt her. Not again. Chased by shadows of the past, Blake and Layla know what they don’t want, but their hearts have a different plan. As a web of lies and betrayal threatens to destroy them, they’re forced to make a choice. Is love enough to heal even the deepest wounds?
Review:
I was very excited when I was given the opportunity to get an arc copy of Fighting to Forgive because I absolutely loved Fighting for Flight. Raven was amazing and Jonah melted my heart. So I already had high expectations for Fighting to Forgive and J.B. did not let me down! I was hooked from the get go and didn’t want to put it down. Every chance I got I would open my kindle or my kindle app on my phone even if it was to just read a few lines because as we all know real life gets in the way of our reading time and we do what we have to, to get our fix of our current book that has us lost in another world!
Blake was a mystery to me at the beginning and J.B. did a great job at keeping you guessing at what his secret was. I had so many thoughts running through my head trying to figure out what his dad wanted to take away from him so much because it made him less of a man. My blood would boil every time Blake would have a memory about his past and we the readers would get a little pick at his childhood and how horrible his dad was.
Layla was a scared woman who gave herself no credit and was always letting her ghost hold her back. But she knew how to hide it well but Blake could see right through her show because he did the same thing. He could she the ghost that were haunting her behind her big brown eyes.
This story had the perfect amount of drama and love and it just flowed very well. I cannot wait to read book 3 and get Rex’s story because he was a mystery to me and I want to know all about him! I give this book 5 stars!
