Synopsis: Fighting for someone’s heart is more challenging than fighting for a title.
For a time, many years ago, love had grown, love was made, and in the end … love was lost. The decision to leave had been the worst mistake Shelby Dawson could have ever made. However, at the time—ten years ago—she felt her secret needed to stay hidden, even if it broke her heart and the heart of the man she loved. Back then, he was all hers and she was all his, but now things have changed and he isn’t the same guy she knew.
He happens to be the well-known MMA Heavyweight champion and famous bad boy, Matt ‘The Destroyer’ Reynolds, who once before struggled to help his family pay the bills. Now, he has money flowing with each undefeated win and an insurmountable number of women filling his bed. Everything is perfect for the illustrious fighter, until one day it all changes. In walks the girl from his past, the same girl who promised to stick by him but left and never looked back.
The time for secrets is over, and the harder she tries to stay away from him the harder he fights for the answers. However, what he finds is that through her betrayal she suffered the ultimate price … the sacrifice of love.
I always look forward to a new book from L.P. Dover because her books are amazing, and this book was no exception! It was absolutely amazing! I was drawn right into it as soon as I started reading! It starts really quickly and it gives you vital information and then it takes until quite a good bit through the book until the full story about what you assume at the beginning starts to come out! I cried at this book twice because the plot was emotional, but so beautiful at the same time! And I'm talking I cried like a baby lol! The plot was so freaking amazing! There were also some twist and turns in the plot too, which I wasn't expecting! I do have to admit that my mouth did drop open at one twist lol! It was so unexpected! I just loved the plot! It had everything that I love in a book in it and I completely devoured it! The characters were equally as amazing as the plot! Shelby was the main female character and she was so cute! She was just so normal and fun! She had also been through a lot as well! My heart completely went out to her! She went through something that affected her so much and you could see how much it still affected her ten years later! She was so strong though and I admired that so much about her! But Shelby had come so far as well! She had a successful job and career and she had an amazing group of friends that supported her through everything! I loved that Shelby didn't take that for granted! Matt was the main male character and the love interest of Shelby! Matt was one of the hottest male characters I've ever read! I want a guy like Matt! Or maybe I just need Matt ;) I completely fell head over heels for Matt for how protective he was of Shelby and I could see that he would do anything for her! Shelby had kept something huge from Matt and when he finds out, he crumbles and my heart completely went out to him! I think any man would crumble if they got told what Matt did! Matt showed just how tough he was though and he came back stronger than ever, which I loved! I loved that this book was written from both Shelby and Matt's point of views! It was definitely essential for what happened in the plot and I loved getting to see their love for each other through both of their eyes! There were also quite a few secondary characters in this book and they added so much to the plot! Some more that others, but I'm excited to hear that some of the secondary characters from this book are being featured in their own series! I'm also so excited to read the next book in this series! I know that it's going to be about Cooper, who was a character in the third book in this series, and I can't wait to read his story! The cover for this book is stunning! There are just no words to describe it! It's just absolutely stunning! I also love how well it suits the other covers in this series and how much the models on the front look like Matt and Shelby! Big thank you to L.P. Dover for an ARC of Fighting for Love and also for quoting me in it too! Big thank you to Enticing Book Journey Promotions for having me on the Blog Tour!
