Fight For You {Book Review}
Title: Fight For You
Author: Charisse Spiers
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Book Description:
To fight and win means the control is his and only his. The last man standing proves it all. Never again will he be on the losing end of the blow, the one lying broken and bloody wanting to die.
Control. Dominance. Aggression. Competition. Each represent a means to survival, a necessity to stay alive, and to suppress the demons that lie inside; the very ones clawing and attempting to break free from the bar that holds them at bay. Every day is a struggle to stay away from the darkness and evil that lurks deep within. Those are the things that it takes to keep those secrets in the realm of his mind in which they belong, forever buried so far there is no chance to break through the barrier he’s built.
Haddox Hayes has spent the last nine years getting by. He’s worked hard to forget that bloodthirsty night he left behind. The monster that exists within his veins will never be released again if he keeps a clear mind, and free from the debris he knows triggers his instinct to kill. He knows what can happen if it’s unlocked from its cage.
Fuck that. It can go to Hell along with the bastard that is the cause of his eternal torment. Eighteen years paid his sin, and at the age of twenty-seven the guilt still resides in his very core.
There is only one place he sets the monster free, but restricted: the ring. Playing by his rules has kept it on a leash for nine years and he doesn’t intend to break his rules now. The rage, the anger, the buildup, it’s all turned out in the confinement of the ropes against another traitor.
Stay in control. That’s the only thing that keeps his urge to annihilate smothered. Dominate the mind and the memories it holds. Fight aggression with fucking aggression. Be the best there is and lay his ass on the ground before the favor can be returned. Compete to win and to survive, or else the evil that is trying to consume will take over and turn him into the one thing he can’t become. If he becomes that, it has to be paid by death, the most ultimate rule.
A blackened heart isn’t allowed to partake in something as pure as love. He embraces the sweet nectar that a woman holds, sampling a little at a time. Never has he taken the same woman to bed twice. The only way to ensure he doesn’t harm another. A Dom in the ring and a Dom in the bed, his only way to cope within.
Then there’s Piper…the girl that could cause his control to evanesce. Will she be his downfall or his reparation? The entertainment is in the fight. Fight for love, fight for light, fight for her, or end in flight.
A girl with a ban against love, allowing men to bed her to numb her mind from the one that left her behind. Can the girl that won’t submit and the man that requires control find paradise in each other?
My Review:
Fight for You is the first book that I have read by this author and I have to say this book grabbed me from the very first page and held my attention until the last page. It is definitely a heartbreaking and deep story.
I really enjoyed Piper. She is a strong and brave character, which is really nice to see in a book. Which is a rarity for me, I usually have a hard time connecting with a female character in a book. But Piper was creative, thoughtful, understanding, patient. Especially when dealing with Haddox.
I loved Haddox in this book. He was everything he didn't think he was. He was dominant, possessive, protective and sexy. Haddox is just want to grab through the book and hug and tell them everything will be ok, he's backstory is heartbreaking. But because of it, it has made him stronger. Also you could feel the attraction between Piper and Haddox right from the start.
Fight for You is definitely a book you'll want to read, especially if you love books that grab your attention and hold it. This book has a little bit of everything in it and lets not forget about the off the charts steamy scenes in this book.
I give this story 4.5 Stars Out of 5 and would recommend this book.
