Fighting My Way Back was the journey of one woman's fight for self assurance, security and falling in love with someone unexpectedly. It's about self discovery, forgiveness, family and not only having physical strength, but having the mindset of being strong as well.
After suffering from a traumatic attack, College Student Gwen Ledger is now recovering home at her dad's house in North Carolina. Still shook up from the experience but determined to get better, Gwen decides that the best thing for her is to learning how to defend herself and who's a better teacher than a former MMA fighter?
Silas knows what it means to work your body after a injury from the ground up and to get it back in the best physical shape. As the owner of one of the best gym for athletes and fighters, his focus is to make sure he's training everyone at top level. But his personal life has taken a hit for the last few years and Silas knows that if he wants that to change, he needs to go out of his comfort zone a bit. What he doesn't expect is to fall for someone who's not only younger than him, but needs his help in more ways than one.
I really enjoyed the first half of the story and I liked the connection between the main characters. They were an unlikely match but became perfect for each other in every way. They were supportive, flirty, and you felt the attraction between them from their first interaction. As the story progressed, things started to speed up a little too much for me and I felt like the author was rushing towards the end. I also didn't like how a couple incidents kept occurring. I understood the first one because it set the book in motion but more than once? That was over the top for me and I really wished that it didn’t happen as often as it did.
If you're looking for a semi dark MMA fighter romance with tragic past, then you should give this one a try.
