A Note from Laura:
Dear Readers,
I’m so excited to share my new standalone romance, Fighting the Fire! This is the fourth book in my Warrior Fight Club contemporary romance series, which mixes military and sports romance elements to tell the story of an MMA training club which creates a found family for veterans transitioning to civilian life and dealing with their war-borne demons. In Fighting the Fire, Sean and Daniela are two of my favorite characters I've ever written--they're both strong, loyal, snarky, and hiding some pretty deep hurts that in the end make them so perfect for each other. And all that frenemies tension makes the chemistry between them hot AF! I hope you love them as much as I do!

For firefighter Sean Riddick, Warrior Fight Club keeps the demons of his past at bay, even though it means seeing Daniela England. Her ball-busting sarcasm drives him nuts, and he knows he’s damaged goods anyway, but he can’t help but remember how good they were together that one time. Now he wants to take her to the mats no matter how much they go toe to toe.
ER nurse Daniela England has lost so much that she’s vowed never to need anyone again. Fight club helps her beat back her survivor’s guilt, but it means dealing with Riddick. The hot-but-infuriating firefighter is everything she wants to avoid, which is why their one-night stand was a mistake. Now she needs to keep her distance so it doesn’t happen again.
But when Dani witnesses Sean’s motorcycle accident, she steps up to help him recover. One on one, they get beneath all the snark and find a connection neither expected. As Sean heals, the sparks between them burst into red-hot passion—and ignite old wounds. Now there are fires all around—and they have to decide which they’ll fight and which they’ll let consume them.
4 Stars
This is the third full length novel in the series but can easily be read as a standalone. Cheers to Laura |Kaye for her fight to get back to sharing her stories with us. Are you ready for fun flirty banter with a side of stinging emotions and guilt? These characters grow so much throughout this book, learning that they are not the to blame for a past that was out of their control. They are not worth less because of the tragedies they have encountered.
Dani England is a widowed ex military who works as a nurse in the local hospital. She still struggles with the loss of her husband and has since kept people at arms length. Over the years she has dealt with many losses and keeps the number of people important to her at a minimum hoping to keep the pain at a minimum. Witnessing fellow Warrior Fight Club member and friend be part of an accident, she jumps into full healer mode and spends time helping him. She wasn't prepared for the feeling that start to develop when spending extra time with him.
Sean Riddick is not stranger to the losses and guilt felt from losing fellow soldiers, friends and brothers. He carries around a heavy guilt for his actions on that horrible day. But it doesn't stop him from being the best firefighter he can be still today. Idle time is hard for him to keep out of his head so he keeps himself busy taking extra shifts and covering for many when they need time off. When an accident finds him stuck at home and unable to use his normal outlets, he is worried. But when he realized that Dani has self appointed herself as his helper and will be spending more time with her he can't say he minds. Who wouldn't want to spend time with a beautiful woman? If is he was being honest with himself he would like to test the waters that were warmed with a one night stand many months ago.
Could this be a healing for both Sean and Dani. Helping them open up and share more of themselves. A start to what could be something what is worth fighting for?
