Fight for Me

The Cypress Valley Sweethearts

By: Erin Chesnut

Narrated by: Devon Ashlyn

A girl who thinks she’s nothing and the boy who knows she’s everything. Can he show her what she’s worth? And will she believe him when he does?

Lexie Preston hasn’t done much right in her life—at least, not according to her father—but Colton Derricks appears to be the exception. Handsome, wealthy, and successful, Colt is everything a girl should want...though lately Lexie feels less like she’s been chosen and more like she’s been captured.

Jake Tanner is a country boy who’s always assumed he would know the right girl when he found her. Something tells him Lexie is the one, but they’ve spent years passing like ships in the night...and he’s running out of time to make a good impression.

When life makes them interns in the same office, Jake finally gets a break! There’s just one problem: Lexie’s already with someone—someone who clearly doesn’t see her the way Jake does.

Taking the advice of sassy Grandma Ruby, Jake starts showing up for Lexie in ways her fancy boyfriend never has. But can he show her what real love looks like before she starts a life she’ll come to regret?

Content warnings: toxic relationships (parent/child and domestic), brief physical violence toward a woman, verbal abuse.

SWEET ROMANCE!

One of my favorite sweet romances! A little tension and a whole lotta brain candy!! I can’t wait for the next novel!!

You are worthy

Everyone needs Jake in their life. Someone who loves you for you, and unapologetically shows up for you. Someone who also makes you believe in yourself. Make you fight to be your true self.

Wonderful!

So like life, wonderfully written. Heartwarming and honestly real life. Looking forward to a second book.

Real plot and characters

Jake and Lexie’s story is one that will quickly have you reaching for your phone to keep listening. The characters are well developed and relatable. The plot does not feel contrived like many contemporary romance novels. Several scenes will make you laugh while others will give you happy warm fuzzy feelings.
I had already read the print version of the book but loved the story and wanted to audio version. I was not disappointed! The narration was well done and I enjoyed the story all over again. I can’t wait for book 2 in the series!

Swoon worthy, protective MMC

I enjoyed this book just as much the second time around. I was able to read this book as an ARC last spring and now I’ve had the opportunity to listen to the audio of this book that just released this month. This is narrated by a single female voice and it was well done.

This is an easy and enjoyable listen as you’ll get swept into the story quickly with the funny meet cute of Jake falling out of his office chair when he tries to get a glance at Lexie. Then you’ll swoon as Jake falls in love with Lexie and even rescues her from her abusive boyfriend. If you liked the Notebook, then you’ll definitely enjoy this story. Book 2 is coming out this year, so definitely add this one to your TBR.
