3.5 StarsI recently discovered Kirsty Dallas and read both Mercy's Angels books back to back. Saving Ella, Book 1, is Ella's and Jax's story; Fighting Back is Rebecca's and Charlie's story. Both work well as standalone novels, however I think I benefited from reading Saving Ella first as I felt a strong connection right away with all of the characters and what Mercy's Angels are all about.Fighting Back starts with an intense, painful situation for Rebecca. I was immediately drawn into the story and definitely felt all of her conflicting emotions that arose out of it. And then there is Charlie...he's a tough fighter with a soft spot for Rebecca - his 'Betty Boop' - and a tendency to fight before asking questions. I really loved watching their relationship grow in Fighting Back as they helped each other fight their own demons.Kirsty Dallas adds just the right touch of humor mixed in with the danger of not knowing who is the 'bad guy'. I loved seeing the same cast of characters from Saving Ella along with a few new faces - Lola and Emily and Braiden. Kirsty Dallas definitely knows how to dish up a hot alpha with a side of sweet and her female characters, while having experienced some at-times god-awful situations, are fighters with a sense of humor and a backbone. I can't wait to learn more about the others we've just begun to meet in future books! Overall, a quick and intense read that left me hanging just a little bit for book 3.
