We all have that one author (or a few) that we sit on the edge of our seats just waiting for their next release! Well LP Dover is one of those many authors for me. I love everything she writes. I know the moment I hear the titles of her books or see the book covers (which are always beautiful, props to her designer Regina Wamba) that the stories in each and every one of her books is going to be amazing.  I can’t even tell you if I have a favorite of hers because they all have left something behind within me.  That is exactly what Fighting For Love has done as well.The book starts off with Shelby semi explaining that and incident/event that took place in her life has left her shattered and apart from someone she still ten years later loves deeply.  No serious details are given away, but just enough to know that there is former lover that is involved, secrets that have been kept, hearts that have been broken (and may still be broken), and a dark whole left within Shelby’s heart for the decision she decided to make and the loss that followed afterwards.  That right there is deep and pulls you right into the rest of the story. That right there makes you not want to put the book down for not even a millisecond.  That right there is the perfect start to a great story.  So much goes on within the pages of this book. There are so many emotions…the emotions are raw and so relatable. Whether you have been through something similar or know someone who has you can feel the pain. I literally felt my heart clench as if it were my heart breaking and not that of the characters.  That is the type of writing from an author that sticks with the readers forever. I won’t tell you if the book ends with an HEA or more heartbreak because I feel that any indication of how it ends will give too much away. Just know that you will love this book. You will finish saying no matter what you should always fight for want you want, what you deserve and fight hard so that in the end no matter which way it goes you can say you gave it everything you had; no regrets.The characters of Shelby and Matt are very real to me.  This is the second book that LP Dover has written that has MMA fighters in it and I must say the woman does it well. I am very intrigued with the world and would love to get my hands on a handsome, sensitive, lovable, strong, determined man like Matt Reynolds. Gracious does she know how to write some kick butt leading men aka my new book boyfriend.  She also does a great job writing strong, independent female leads as well and nowadays that is a necessity.I’m so glad that LP Dover decided to give Matt Reynolds his own story. We first met him in Meant for Me and we all fell in love with Matt and of course wanted more and  she heard our screams and shouts.
