It didn’t matter that the ref called it a clean hit. Nico Hunter would never be the same.

Elle has a good life. A job she loves, a great apartment, and the guy she’s been dating for more than two years is a catch and a half. But it’s boring…and she strives to keep it that way. Too many emotions are dangerous. Her own past is living proof of what can happen when you lose control.

Then Nico walks into Elle’s office and everything changes…for both of them. But what can the tattooed, hard-bodied MMA fighter and the beautiful and always steady attorney have in common? A lot more than they bargained for.

***Author's note*** THIS IS A STAND-ALONE NOVEL. Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

Glad this wasn't the first Vi Keeland book I read

August 16, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I've wanted to read this book for a long time, and finally got around to it. Sadly, I think it wasn't nearly as good as this author's recent books. The major thing that bothered me was the repetitiveness. The phrasing was so similar during every interaction that it almost felt like I was stuck in some crazy deja vu scenario. The romance was fairly sweet considering we were supposed to accept these were more closed off, strong characters. The instalove was also quite over the top. I never really felt the main characters had more than a superficial connection. I did like Nico. I thought he had some depth to his character that was unexpected, but I wanted more between him and Elle. I think the plotline had promise, but it just never really developed into anything that would convince me to keep reading the series or even the author if this had been the first book of hers I read. With the many MMA/fighter series out there, this just failed to measure up.

Worth the Fight (MMA Fighter Series Book 1)

Elle was in a ho hum relationship that didn’t seem to be going anywhere and then she meets Nico Hunter. Elle loves the way that Nico handle’s her and he is exciting. But, both Nico and Elle are broken. Elle thought she was better until something triggers it again. Of course I can’t say what. Nico also thought he was better. Nico is a MMA fighter. Elle is an attorney. And, the story goes on from there.

When I first saw that it was a MMA fighter story I was a little worried. You see I really dislike sports stories. The good news is that yes there are fights but, it is a story that is built around the sports.

I loved their story so much that I couldn’t put this book down even at work. Fortunately, it was a slow night for me and I got a lot of reading in.

I loved this story and I should have read it sooner. I have to apologize to this author. I evidently had received a copy of this ARC and it somehow got lost on my Kindle. I did buy this book to give it a verified review.

I give Worth the Fight 4.5 Stars

Pretty good start to the series :)

3.5-4 stars

This was a pretty good story. I liked both Elle and Nico and their story was enjoyable without being overly drama-filled.

Elle is a lawyer at a small law firm that she's been working at since she interned there right out of college. She's happy with her job even though the guy she's dating, William, thinks she should move to a larger firm. William is everything Elle thinks she should want in a boyfriend but their relationship is more along the lines of friends with benefits. Unfortunately, Elle's become bored with the relationship and isn't very interested in the benefits any more.

Nico is a championship winning MMA fighter that is on a break from fighting. About a year before, Nico was in a fight and a hit accidentally killed Nico's opponent. Even though they found out the guy died because of a brain aneurysm and through no fault of Nico's, he hasn't been able to face going back in the ring. He still has some endorsement deals however and it's one of those deals that brings him to Elle.

William is a lawyer that has Nico as a client and brings him to Elle to consult about his case. She agrees to help them with the issue they're having but it's clear from the first meeting that there's an attraction between Elle and Nico. William seems oblivious though and Elle is left trying to figure out how to proceed. Nico comes back to see her and asks her out but makes sure she knows it's just for a platonic dinner until she figures out where things stand between her and William. the dinner goes great and although she's a bit stressed about it, Elle quickly ends up breaking things off with William so she can go out with Nico.

Once William is out of the way, Nico and Elle find that their relationship falls into place almost easily. They fit together well and things seem good between them. There are some issues to deal with though and most of those harken back to Nico's fight that went wrong and whether or not he'll go back to fighting. And if he does go back to fighting, how will he handle his first fight back in the ring. Overall, the story wasn't majorly dramatic but Nico having to deal with what happened in order to move on, does provide some drama that has to be dealt with. I felt bad for them both but I was happy that Elle and Nico managed to get past the issues to end the story with a well deserved HEA together.

This was a pretty enjoyable story. I liked both Elle and Nico and was happy with how things turned out. The road to that ending was a bit rough but I think the story was well written overall and I'd recommend this story. :)

* note - I listened to the audio version of this story and the narrator did a very good job.

Loved this book, about lawyer Elle and MMA fighter Nico Hunter. Elle was having a friends with benefits thing with her lawyer friend William, but it wasn't working for her anymore. William brings Nico to Elle's office for a contract consult, and when their eyes meet, Cupid got his arrows in real hard for these two. Nico invited Elle to dinner which results in Elle breaking up with William and a relation starts. From the start, Nico was totally smitten and he wanted more than a one-night stand. Elle was mesmerized, aroused, enthralled. It was cute to read. I had several thoughts about Nico preying on his lawyer's girlfriend, and also some thoughts about conflict of interest between lawyer and client. But I loved where this plot was going, so didn't care.

The love story was straightforward and nice. Many steamy love scenes, which I skimmed. I got a feeling that some characters must have been introduced in an earlier book, because the book lacked some background in some characters, mainly Elle's mom's new marriage, the stepfather and her stepbrother. Even so, it was very enjoyable. Both Elle and Nico had some baggage which they needed to deal with. Nico had several moments where he closed up and closed Elle out. I liked that Elle would retreat instead of cling, and he would have to grovel as is right.

If I had to describe Nico, apart from hot, it would be as a gentle giant, because he was that devoted and attentive to Elle. I loved Elle's tardiness quirk, because for many years I was a late arrival at work too. This was an entertaining and enjoyable read, very much recommend.
