Everyone thinks they know me, but they have no idea. Im nothing like they imagine me to be. My secret is about to come out, the real test will be if anyone is still standing by me when it does. The last person I ever expected to see standing there with a look of acceptance was Christen. She is the picture of perfection, she could never accept me with all of my flaws.
I have wanted Shawn for almost a year now but he barely acknowledges my existence. Im just the innocent pretty girl. Well Im about to show him that there is a lot more to me than that. If he wants a fight Ill give him one.
Will you fight for love no matter the cost?
Fight For Me was originally Fighting To Survive and part of the Guarded Hearts Series. The story has been changed a bit and re-edited to make it a standalone novel.
**Fight For Me is for mature audiences onlystrong language, and explicit sexual content are apparent.**
Fight for Me is Shawn and Christen's story. They are two characters from different sides of the tracks. Shawn is hesitant to start a relationship with Christen because he is involved with underground fighting. He thinks that he's not good enough for her because of it. He finally realizes that that he can have a relationship with her. Unlike the other characters in the series, I felt like didn't know a lot about Shawn and Christen leading up to their book. That could be a good thing or bad thing, just depends on the reader's interpretation.
The book started off very well. Shawn and Christen are building their relationship. There is even a great scene after Christen's birthday bash where the girls play a trick on the guys. When we get closer to the end of the book, that's when things change. It felt so rushed at the end, as if author had to give a HEA but in 20 pages or less. I wish that the author extended the length of the book to make the ending flow better. Overall it was a good read, I just expected more with the ending.

My Rating
3 Stars out of 5
He stands up fast and begins to pace the small room, I dont want everyone to know, not that it matters now. I wasnt jumping for joy when I won because I didnt want to win. He doesnt want to win?
What? Why not?
Because I dont want to have to fucking be doing this! Its not something I do for fun; its something I do because it is a damn necessity. I would love to be like you guys and be able to hang out, enjoy school, and not need to worry about how I was going to pay for my next semester, but Im not! He is yelling now and half of me wishes I had never made the decision to come back here.
I dont know what to say. I guess I just assumed he was fighting to fulfill some masculine, testosterone-fueled need to hit something. I stand up and walk over to him. He has his back to me, but I decide to be brave and put my hand on him, hoping to comfort him in whatever way I can. Im sorry you are in this position. Maybe it would be easier on you if you werent hiding it, though. Everyone cares about you and they arent going to judge you and turn their backs on you for something like this. It may not seem like much coming from me, since we dont know each other well, but Im here if you ever need someone to talk to.
He spins around, and before I know it, he spins me around and has me backed up against the wall. He slams his hands on either side of my head, trapping my hands with them, and then crushes his mouth to mine. I let out a gasp of surprise and he takes advantage, slipping his tongue into my mouth. His kiss is so frenzied and urgent, so full of need. Its unlike anything I have ever experienced in my life. Im not innocentIve been kissed by plenty of guysbut never like this.
Hes taking complete control over me and dominating every sense of my being. He pulls back a little, biting down on my lower lip, causing me to moan with a mix of pleasure and pain. I open my eyes to see him staring at me with such desire my insides warm. Before I know whats happening, he releases my hands and speeds out the door.
