I lusted after this book from the moment I saw the cover. Those arms and that back had me quickly wiping my drool and marking my calendar to ready for release day.  The fact that the author was Anne Leigh sealed the deal for me. I have read and adored Anne’s previous three releases and had no idea whatsoever that I had been previously introduced to the characters in Fight or Fall.Milo and Ava instantly felt like old friends to me, old friends wrestling deep and dark demons.  Milo’s guilt, anger and disgrace broke my heart, just as much as his dreams, love and strength glued it back together. His desire to right the wrongs and to ultimately be worthy of Ava was the exact moment I realized the tides were turning and Milo was controlling his destiny inside and outside the cube.Ava is everything Milo needs in a woman. She always has been, he just wasn’t looking hard enough. When he thinks ~ Since when did Ava make my dick stand up and follow her around? Since forever. She vexed the hell out of me. ~ I knew it was on. Ava’s lifelong dedication to Milo had my heart fluttering.  “You’ve always been my dream.”  That right there is worth fighting for. Ava’s relationship with her parents was saddening to read. I felt her loyalties being stretched and pulled until I knew they’d snap. Even as she realized what she needed to do, I longed for another way. Her choice was unimaginable, the result earth shattering. One of the many treasures of Anne’s writing is that she develops flawed characters. Characters that often do wrong, for what they believe to be the right reasons. You want to hate them, oh you do, but I find myself closing the book knowing that the journey to self-discovery and righting wrongs is never finished. There are no take-backs, no re-do’s, no do-overs; however, Anne leaves the door open for redemption and for finding a better way. Anne Leigh knows hot athletes and the women that stand beside them. Her love of writing is evident in each and every page. Fight or Fall should not be missed.
