Blurb
All he wants is to forget. All she wants is his forgiveness.
Riley finally seems to have her life together, after years of
uncertainty. Her boyfriend, Nate, came into her life when she needed him most,
helping guide her into the type of woman she always aspired to be.
Strong. Confident. Unconditionally Loved.
Her past life almost forgotten; she catches a glimpse of the one person
who could upset everything. All of the guilt she buried returns, threatening
all she has worked toward.
Jon is still piecing things together after hitting the lowest point of
his life. He's had years to feel whole again. Except he's missing one thing:
his career in MMA. His love for fighting forces him to return to his hometown,
where his best friend, Mase, runs a gym. The gym they always dreamed of
starting together. Only she ruined that for him, shattering all of his dreams.
Jon returns with the hope of keeping his distance from the one person he never
wants to see again, Riley.
Can they live in the same town and have their past stay just that? Or
will Riley's guilt fester, tilting their world off of its already unsteady
axis?
Fighting My Affections can be read as a standalone.

Excerpt
I take in
the dimmed lighting and romantic atmosphere as I approach the hostess desk.
“I’m here
to meet my boyfriend, Na…”
“Ah yes,
ma’am. I’ve been expecting you, Ms. Riley. Please follow me,” the young girl
says, as she walks from behind her booth to lead the way.
Soft
instrumental music plays in the background and I can’t help but feel a touch
out of place. This is the fanciest place I’ll have ever eaten at and couples
with expensive clothing and snooty expressions litter this room. Men’s eyes
follow me as their wives’ sneer at them.
I feel like
a display. The cheap woman dressed in fancy clothes to meet a man who pays for
the nice things she wears. He picked my dress. He picked my shoes. Hell, he
even placed a beautiful set of earrings alongside side this dress on my bed.
I felt
beautiful leaving the house, but these women are dressed in a more modest
fashion. This dress Nate laid out for me, scoops low in the back and its fine
fabric left me with no choice but to go sans undergarments. The peak of my
nipples shows through for all to see, and I can either accept their stares and
show confidence, or I can turn and leave this place, allowing these snobs to make
me feel bad with their mean judgments of me.
