About FIGHTING FOR WHAT’S HIS (Warrior Fight Club #2, 9/7/18):
This fight club has one rule: you must be a veteran…
Resisting her only makes him want her more...
Private investigator Billy Parrish is good at three things—fighting, investigating, and sex. MMA training with the other vets in the Warrior Fight Club keeps his war-borne demons at bay—mostly, and one night stands ensure no one gets too close. But then his best friend from the Army Rangers calls in a favor.
Shayna Curtis is new to town, fresh out of grad school, and full of hope for the future. With a new job starting in a month, she’s grateful when her brother arranges a place for her to stay while she apartment hunts. But she never expected her roommate to be so brooding. Or so sexy.
Billy can’t wait for Shay to leave—because the longer she’s there, the more he wants her in his bed. To stay. He can’t have her—that much he knows. But when fight club stops taking off the edge, Billy lets down his guard…and starts fighting for what’s his.

REVIEW:
EXCERPT:
4.5/5
We have previously met Billy in the first book, Fighting for
Everything. His army ranger days are over, now he was working as a private
investigator, which was way tame and a bit boring compared to his previous job.
Together with the other vets, their MMA training at the Warrior Fight Club
allows him not to dwell on his past and forget it ever happened.
His life was all routine, until his best friend asked him a favor. To
allow the latter’s sister to stay at his home while she tries to find for an apartment.
It wouldn’t be a problem, he has the room. What he didn’t expect is his
best friend’s sister to grow up stunning and sexy. Will he be strong enough to
resist?
Shayna Curtis is new to town and excited to start her new job. Not to
mention, her brother arranged her to live with her long-time crush as she tries
to find an apartment in the big city.
Billy is torn between wanting Shay to leave or making her stay. He wants
her around, and he wants her in his bed. But he can’t have her, he’s too jaded
and too much demons from his past. Will they have their happy-ever-after?
Just like the first book, I enjoyed reading Fighting for Everything. I love the chemistry between Billy and
Shay. Their first meeting in the apartment is epic, and ever since, you can
feel the intense brewing of chemistry between the two of them. Billy has so
much going on in his mind, nevertheless, Shay was brave enough to destroy the
walls he built around him. Shay is easy to love. She’s a strong, determined and
persistent character. She has her demons, and I was just glad it was addressed
before the story ended.
Fast paced, sexy, and sweet – Laura Kaye continues on with her must-read
Warrior Fight Club Series. I can’t wait for the next installment!
Shayna
sat nearly plastered against Billy’s side, because the restaurant had squeezed
the seven of them into a booth that would’ve been more comfortable for four or
five. Only the fact that Mo sat in a chair at the end of the booth made it
work, but it was still a tight fit.
Shayna
was not complaining.
Because
Billy smelled like soap and a clean-scented aftershave and something that was
all him—combined, they made up a mouthwatering scent that she wouldn’t have
minded drowning in. The whole night she’d been over-aware of the press of their
thighs and the way they kept bumping arms until they’d finally broken down in
laughter over how difficult it was to cut their steaks without elbowing each
other in the face.
Billy
turned to Shayna. “Are you having a good time?”
“Yes.
Thanks for letting me tag along,” she said.
He
shook his head. “You’re not tagging along. I wanted you here. And everyone
wanted to meet you.”
“It’s
true,” Sean said. “Because it’s not everyday someone gets a jump on a Ranger.”
Billy
threw the guy an unamused look, and Shayna laughed. “I wouldn’t go that far,”
she said.
“Thank
you,” Billy said.
“Wait.”
Dani held out her hands and surveyed the lot of them. “I need this story from
the beginning.”
Which
kicked off twenty minutes of her and Billy fighting to tell their versions of
the story—sans all mention of her getting naked at the end of it, thank
God—while everyone laughed and taunted Billy and high-fived Shayna.
Dani
and Tara were totally on her side all the way, and that had Billy refusing to
share the piece of cheesecake that he’d agreed to split with Shayna when they
ordered it.
She
tried to maneuver her fork around his arm, but he blocked her, making her laugh
even as she pleaded for a bite. “Come on. It’s not my fault that all your
friends think it’s funny that I broke into your house.”
He
smirked at her. “That isn’t earning you any cheesecake.”
“It’s
my cheesecake, too,” she said, trying again.
He
easily blocked her next attack. “Possession is nine-tenths of the law.”
“Quit
being a dickweasal,” she said, laughing as she tried again.
He
grinned and held the dessert plate further away. “Dickweasal, am I?”
“Oh,
do you prefer jizzmuffin?”
Mo’s
eyebrows went way up. “Listen to the genius coming out of this girl’s mouth.”
Everyone laughed. “Is this also courtesy of your brother?”
“Brothers,”
Shayna said, not failing to claim Dylan, too. For once. “And yes. I had to be
able to insult them back, didn’t I?”
Grinning,
Mo grabbed the plate from Billy’s hand when he wasn’t looking.
“Hey!”
Billy said, a comically outraged expression on his sexy face.
“Creativity
like that takes fuel, brother, that’s all I’m saying.” He handed the plate
around Billy to Shayna.
About
two-thirds of the cake was left, and Shayna promptly licked the whole top of
it. “I licked it. It’s mine now. Take that, assclown.”
The
whole table howled in laughter. Mo was actually crying.
And
she thought Billy’s expression had been comical before. His jaw dropped. “I
can’t believe you just did that.”
She
slid a big forkful of the sweet, creamy deliciousness into her mouth. “Oh,
believe it,” she said around the bite.
As
he watched her, his gaze shifted. From outraged to playful to challenging. And
she didn’t think she was imagining more than a little heat in those dark eyes,
either. “You think I’m put off by a pretty woman’s tongue, Shayna Curtis?”
