Fight for Me: A Small Town Second Chance Romance (The Arrowood Brothers Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 7,607 ratings

New York Times Bestselling author Corinne Michaels brings the second emotional and riveting standalone second chance love story in the Arrowood Brothers series.

I fell in love with Sydney Hastings when I was ten years old.
At sixteen, we whispered promises of forever.
When I was twenty-two I broke them all. I left her and promised never to return to this small town.
After my father's death, I’m forced to go home to Sugarloaf for six months. She'll be everywhere, no longer just in my memories and regrets.
When we’re together, it’s as though time never stopped. She’s still the one I want, but I don’t deserve her. Instead of apologizing, I take that beautiful, broken woman in my arms.
But after that, it’s her turn to leave me.
Now I have to fight. For her. For us. For the life we both want …

Five Beautiful Second Chance Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Whoa. I'm just blown away right now. I had no idea Corinne Michaels had new ways of absolutely shattering my battle-weary heart and putting me back together, but then, here we are. I'm just a riot of emotions, and have been since finishing Fight For Me. Twelve hours later and still can't put into words how magnificently crafted this beautiful second chance love story truly is. Declan and Sydney absolutely decimated me. I bawled and got angry at times, but I also laughed, got giddy and swooned so hard. Yes, I hurt, but I also healed right along with Sydney & Declan. Theirs is a love that cannot be denied and it's absolutely beautiful. ❤ "My path is clear— it’s always the one that leads to you."

    Fight for Me is a stunning love story that captivated me page after page. This second-chance romance is powerfully inspiring, emotionally raw, and breathtakingly romantic. An unforgettable masterpiece delivered with so much heart and soul. Declan and Sydney are meant to be together. While their attraction and chemistry is undeniable, it’s their intense connection that makes them beautiful together. Their connection is just as strong as it ever was. The pull to each other is irresistible and undeniable. Two broken souls each yearning for that missing piece that makes them feel whole again. How they fight for one another is breathtaking. With every page, I fell deeper in love with the characters and their epic story. The storyline is incredibly well-written and flowed seamlessly. The twists and turns are a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Oh, the emotions -- I could feel everything the characters experienced; they radiated from the pages. I laughed, cried so many tears (happy and sad), felt the butterflies, the heart palpitations, every ounce of pain and all the joy. The heartfelt moments stole my breath and the heartbreaking ones shattered my heart. Oh, and those swoon-worthy moments left me breathless! This book has all the feels!! A powerful and poignant story of love, faith and forgiveness that I didn’t want to end. The unconditional love and support of family and friends is beyond words. The wisdom interlaced throughout was inspiring. I absolutely loved every second of this breathtaking story and it is definitely my favorite of Corinne’s books. Fight for Me is one of my all-time top reads. I highly recommend reading this incredible love story!

    I liked this book. Just a few things bugged me. Like how long it took Sydney to tell Declan that she was pregnant! I was frustrated at how long that was drawn out! They are Borge perfect for each other in every way but Declan holds back so much throughout most of the book that you want to shake him to make him get his head out of his rear end!!! All together I really did love this story and how they are all intertwining with the rest in this series and how people from her previous books make small appearances in this book.

    I have been dying to read this book for what seems like forever. And the wait has been worth every minute. The Arrowood brothers will not only take your breath away, they will steal your heart.

    Corinne Michaels is an extremely talented writer and storyteller. There’s nobody else like her. When you pick one of her books you know there’s an emotional roller coaster waiting for you. She will pull at your heartstrings almost to the point of breaking. She will make you cry rivers and even laugh a bit. Her stories are compelling and heartbreaking and beautiful, and most certainly unputdownable.

    Fight for Me is the second book in the Arrowood Brothers series. It’s Declan’s and Sydney’s story. It’s a fist love/soulmate, second chance romance that will break your heart and drive you to drink, most likely. And I mean that in a good way.

    Declan Arrowood has been in love with Sydney Hastings since the day they met. They made promises to each other that they intended to keep forever. But sometimes life changes in an instant. Declan and his brothers made a pact that forced him to break every single promise he ever made to Sydney, successfully breaking her heart. Now he’s forced back in Sugarloaf for six months, and avoiding Sydney is all but impossible. Just as impossible as denying how he feels about her. Now he will have to decide if he’s going to go back to the path he chose eight years ago, or if he’s willing to risk everything for a second shot to forge their path to happiness.

    Fight for Me is an epic first love second chance love story both heartbreaking and heartwarming that will keep you glued to the edge of your seat. It’s a story filled with regret but also forgiveness. It will touch your heart and soul, and leave you wanting for more. And as always, it’s exceptionally written. So, so beautiful. And I honestly cannot wait to read Sean’s story.

    Declan and Sydney have been in love their whole life. Sydney was always there for him growing up and his brothers after their mom passed. Declan was there for her when her father abandoned her. After a horrific night with his father, he breaks her heart and leaves to protect her. 8 years later, he's home to do his 6-month stay in Sugarloaf, and he has to be around Sydney. They have a moment, and Sydney ends up pregnant. So you know the secret of why the boys left the town behind and Sydney so the whole book was a back and forth conversation between Sydney begging for Declan to stay and start a life and gik just saying he loved her but No. Sydney is such a strong chick, so it kinda hurt to watch her give in to him with him physically, and he would crush her after. Such a back and forth. The ending was good kinda knew it had to be something big to push through his stubbornness possibly. I just felt like it was very clear they could be together and couldn't wrap my head around. Why didn't they just get together. I'm excited to read devney and sean.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Will They Take the Second Chance to Let Love Triumph
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 25, 2020
    This is a book that will take you through a cacophony of raw emotions such as anger, hate, heartache, regret, hope and love. The writing is so powerful , you will just want to read quickly from the beginning to the end to finally discover how the two main characters resolved their difficulties.

    Declan the eldest of the Arrowood brothers was in love with Sydney Hastings when he was ten and at sixteen they made 'forever promises'. But at twenty two he suddenly left Sugarloaf and Sydney for New York and vowed that he would not return. But why? And what did this mean for Sydney and their relationship.

    Now, eight years later, on the death of his father Declan is forced to return to Sugarloaf and live on the family's farm for his allotted six months . Because his father has stipulated in his WILL that if they don't, they will all lose their inheritance. But why?

    And being in Sugarloaf means Declan cannot avoid Sydney and being near each other rakes up feelings which have laid dormant for eight years. Sydney makes it repeatedly clear that she still loves him but he rejects her. So she just walks away. And now he has to demonstrate his love. And if he wants her he will have to do the chasing . But will he follow the demands of his heart and chase? Will he fight for them?

    Well I suggest that get this excellent book and satisfy your curiosity. Enjoy...

    There is a lot of depth and intrigue in this novel. It isn’t quite as humorous and lighthearted as my typically preferred brand of romance, but it was well written and interesting.
