Fight For Me by Corinne Michaels

4.0

Declan has been back to Sugarloaf since his youngest brother graduated high school almost ten years ago. He hasn't seen or spoke to Sydney since that night either, bur he's never stopped loving her, no matter how hard he's tried. But of course his father has to mess with him one more time, even from the grave. He's got to go home for six months and help take care of the family land. There's no way he can avoid Sydney in that small town for six months and being around her is like no time has passed at all. Maybe it's time to fight for her.

Corinne Michaels is a master are writing complex characters with some rather heartbreaking histories, but she does it in a way that doesn't just completely big you down with such hard emotions. Fight For Me was no exception. Declan and Sydney both have issues with their fathers and both have to come to terms with those feelings and pasts. I did feel like the story was a little repetitive at times with their internal dialogue, but I did still quite enjoy the story.

I love how strong Sydney ended up being and the fact that she didn't just let Declan off the hook completely. And I love that Declan really did fight for her in the end. I didn't love some of the decisions they made along the way, but I also understood them. It was a good story and I'm looking forward to continuing the series.

I would recommend this one to anyone who enjoys the following.

✔️ Unplanned/Secret Pregnancy
