My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was a story about finding yourself again, but I felt like it could’ve been more in depth. It was a quick read with what could’ve been a great story to tell.
Ray moves back to his hometown to start over and his best friends sister, Alyssa, comes back into his life.

Alyssa’s life has been tragic, with the death of her brother and being in an abusive relationship, but her brothers best friend, Ray, the boy who has always had her heart, makes her see that she can start over.

Ray is a hometown hero. He left to become a boxer. An injury threatens to end his career so he “retires” and heads back home to buy the local eatery they all grew up at. And finds Alyssa in the process.
Will they both get a fresh start or will they stay in the past?

I love a book that is romance plus the sport of fighting like boxing. This is my first book I read by Author Amy L Gale and I absolutely loved it! When Ray Wilson, whom was a professional boxer, returns to Sunset Cove to re-open The Kraken Bar & Grill. The real estate agent that he meets to sign all the paperwork is no other then Alyssa, whom he had known since high school. Growing up Alyssa’s brother was Ray’s best friend. After divorcing her abusive husband, Alyssa really tries to build her own business. When Alyssa meets with Ray to sign the paperwork for the bar he bought, spark also fly between Ray and Alyssa. The two really hit it off, until a opportunity for one last fight that Ray is a part of could ruin his left eyesight permanently, and someone is behind the set up of this fight. I just loved this story and I try not to give any spoilers away. This is a quick read but did NOT disappoint!

I really enjoyed this sport romance. The author does a great job with her characters making them relatable and easy to fall in love with. This story is full of first love, memories and danger which all makes for a gripping read.

When he takes over the Kraken bar he enlisted the help of his old school friend Lys. Neither of them expected the old flames from their school days to reignite and catch fire but boy is the attraction hot.

However things aren’t all good for the couple with Lys ex husband Jared in the background he is out to destroy the couple and the life they are making together.
When Ray is given the opportunity for one last fight in Vegas he jumps at the chance not realising it is a set up to destroy him for good.
Can Lys make Ray see sense and call off the fight? Can Ray win the fight or will Ray lose his eyesight and the girl he loves chasing a dream thats over?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this romance and read the book in one sitting as I was hooked from start to finish. Professional boxer Ray “The Wrecker” Wilson has had to retire from the ring due to injury. Ray returns to his hometown of Sunset Cove to buy The Kraken Bar & Grill a former infamous hotspot. Real-estate agent Alyssa Higgins is trying to restart her life having divorced her abusive husband who unfortunately still lives in the town, the same town his family run. Ray and Alyssa meet when he needs her expertise to buy The Kraken, Ray can’t believe he’s face to face with the one girl who was always ‘off limits’ due to her being his best friends little sister. Alyssa is surprised to find the legendary heartthrob is back in town especially as he’s followed by reporters everywhere he goes.
Whilst Alyssa believes Ray just sees her as his best friends sister still, Ray is trying to resist their obvious chemistry especially as they are both grieving for Alyssa’s brother. Just as the couple grow closer Ray has an opportunity to go back in the ring but this decision may change everything. This is a heartwarming romance with a sporting theme, the storyline flows well and has plenty of drama and suspense in the plot to keep readers happily turning the pages. The characters are all well defined and I especially liked the main characters, Ray and Alyssa. The chemistry between the pair really came across in the writing and as they were both likeable and relatable I felt engaged with them and their story. A great short read which I recommend.

This is a quick read. I really enjoyed the story for the first half. The characters and their plight drew me in. I cared about them and wondered what would happen. A Fighter (after forced retirement) coming back to his hometown..reinvesting in the town. Great idea! Then meeting back up with his BF sister. Perfect! Then there is her story of divorce from an abusive ex and learning to stand on her own again. Nicely Done.

The second half was not so good. The story went all over the place. The characters really fell flat and things didnt fit in place. The Story/Characters should be like a puzzle where everything fits together. In here I feel like pieces got put in the wrong place. I think a longer, more in depth look at the characters and story would have been more beneficial. Maybe even a look inside Ray’s head. It just felt rushed at times and the story didn’t match up with the great first half.

Overall I liked the idea and premise of this story.

I loved this book because it was a simple, easy, wholesome read. It was the standard story – small town feel, boy moves back to town a hero/big shot, meets girl who boy has known all his life, boy and girl kindle a romance, girl or boy pushes the other away for seemingly unknown reasons, trouble arises, boy or girl overcomes reasons in order to be with the other, they all live happily ever after… BUT I loved how Amy puts in a second villain character!
The twist that is not really a twist, which becomes a twist again made the story that much more intriguing!

I do feel that the end hit a bit too abruptly and the bow was tied a little too neatly, but overall it was a fun read and I am planning on keeping it in my back pocket for when I need an easy book to make me smile.

Fight For It is a great novella by Amy L Gale. This was the first time that I had read any of this author’s work but I’m sure I will read more as I really enjoyed Fight For It.
Although this book is only 108 pages the author manages to pack a great deal of content into this short book. I devoured this book in one sitting, not wanting to put it down until I got to the end.
I really loved Ray and Alyssa’s story. I thought at first that this was going to be the typical best friend’s little sister story but it was far from it and that made it all the more enjoyable.
As much as I loved both of Ray and Alyssa’s characters there were times that I really wanted to smack Ray on the head an knock some sense into him.
If you want a quick read that will keep you engaged then Fight For It is the book for you.

Fight for it is the first book that I have read written by this author. This is a cute sports romance story. The characters are strong willed and well written I also like how the main characters play off their quirks. The description of the background and scenes made the story almost feel real.

When Professional boxer Ray “The Wrecker” Wilson when an injury forces him to retire, he returns to his hometown of Sunset Cove to buy the former infamous hotspot, The Kraken Bar & Grill. He is used to winning, both in and out of the ring.
Alyssa Higgins is a real-estate agent and she is finally getting her life back together and staying low-key, is a good start after divorcing her abusive husband whose family runs the town.
So, what happens when Ray and Alyssa run into each other? They both have demons can they overcome them together or will they walk away from each other?
You need to read this story to find out but I do recommend it….

This is a cute, fast read about two people who have always had feelings for each other but neither of them ever said or did anything about it. Alyssa is recently from the town’s “it boy”, Jared, and Ray is a professional boxer. The two cross paths when Ray decides to buy an old restaurant in their hometown. What seems like fate, is almost ruined when Jared tries to get between the two. Overall, I liked this book but I would’ve liked more details about Alyssa’s brother Rick’s accident and a little more drama at the end. I would’ve liked to see Jared have more consequences as well.

I really enjoyed this story, it was easy to read, had a nice pace and flow and great characters too. I love sports romance stories so this one was right up my street! I loved Ray! I really felt for him and everything he went through – boxing was so important to him. Alyssa was such a lovely character too; she had been through a lot as well. I think as soon as these two came together again I could tell there was something. They had a genuine and real connection and a lot of chemistry too!
Overall, I really enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend it to other readers.

This was my first book by this author and I LOVED it. A super quick story that didn’t feel rushed or choppy. I read the last word and felt completely satisfied, except loving these characters so much I could have read on for many more pages.

The writing was awesome, had a smooth flow and I did feel transported into the story. I found myself travelling with Lys to Vegas and my heart was pounding and my anxiety was off the charts as I was right there with her.

I completely enjoyed this book, it had it all and this author did an amazing job never making it feel forced or crammed in because of the amount of pages. I love the small town and would love to revisit with more books. Will definitely be reading more from this author!

Fight for It (Sunset Cove) by Amy L. Gale is a quick and easy sweet contemporary romance. This sports novella is just what you need to escape real life for a few hours. I really enjoyed this story and the characters but wished the story was longer. With Ray returning to his small-town home after an injury forces him to give up boxing, he soon reconnects with his best friend’s sister. Ray and Alyssa both have their own demons from past relationships to work through. Starting over is just what they need and never thought they would have but together they might just heal.

This was a beautiful written story, full of ups and downs along with the trails and triumphs of this thing we called life. It was a good read, was a fast paced setting, and I really enjoyed the character development I received from reading this wonderful book

I found even the the main male character was so easy to relate to, Ray, He was a strong athlete, he was a boxer , but sadly an injury caused his career to come to a very quick stop. He starts to pick up his life again, going back to his home town and buying a local business that would be good to start up again, Everything seemed easy and off to a good start. Throw in the girl who always held your heart, but was not ethical to chase after as she was your best friend’s sister? Not so easy or productive perhaps. Alyssa had her own trials of life she had gone through, but was trying to move on and basically find her place in the world. I feel she never expected to have Ray come back into her life as he did!

Faith had other plans to for these two souls. Ray’s best friend, as well as Alyssa’s brother, sadly was not in the picture. You could tell it was something heavy for them in both their hearts. Perhaps though, maybe this loss and faith are brining them together in more ways than one? They have to work together and as they spend time together, more walls seem to fall down, and maybe they both needed each other, and they never knew how much they could feel with one another if they just allowed themselves to. Could it be true love if they allowed it? Or will life throw something into the ring that could ruin everything?

It was a very enjoyable quick read. The chemistry with Ray and Alyssa was undeniable. It was a beautiful at times, and yes it was something they both had to work hard for. I was rooting for these two souls the entire book, it was a wonderful read. I seriously recommend reading it, its not one y to miss out on!

Sometimes, you just need a quick little pick me up to renew your view on romance, love, life, and all good things. That’s exactly why I picked this little novella up, and I can tell you, I wasn’t disappointed. As with most people, Ray and Lys (Alyssa) have fought their own demons, experience some turbulence within their relationship, and have the unfortunate circumstance of a shared loss. All of this brings them closer and closer together, and allow them to open their hearts to each other, and to really explore just how far their relationship can take them. My partner caught me smiling, and blushing a few times, and inquired as to what exactly I was reading, if that gives you any indication as to how well this novella is written. Amazing little reprieve from the real world. Thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you, Amy L. Gale!

I enjoyed this sports romance story. This is my first book by this author which I enjoyed and can’t wait to see what is next for her. I enjoyed how her use of details made the story realistic. I also enjoyed how I was pulled into the story from the beginning by the characters. They made the story engaging and hard to put down. They are connectable and bring the story to life on each page. This is a fast paced story that was entertaining and easy to read. This is a story about Alyssa and Ray. What will happen when the two of them meet when he walks into her real estate office? He hires her for some marketing of his business along with the town’s politics but what he gets is a little more than he was expecting. As they fight their passion as they share their grief in a tragedy. What happens to these two you don’t want to miss. Their chemistry and the passion they try to fight is strong. I enjoyed watching their growth throughout the story and what they brought to the story. This is a great romance story that I truly enjoyed. I highly recommend this book.
