Publisher's summary

A toxic ex.

A girl who lost herself.

A childhood friend helping her find the way back.

When Hailey finally ends her relationship with her narcissistic ex-boyfriend, she thinks all her troubles have ended. But what she doesn’t realize is that the wounds he inflicted aren’t on her skin, but in the way she sees herself. And the only person capable of helping her heal has been in her corner all her life.

Jax has had a soft spot for the younger Porter sister ever since his family moved into their neighborhood. It feels like the most natural thing in the world to go from helping her with math homework, to holding her hand through a rough breakup years later. But as he starts to show her how beautiful and worthy she already is, he himself starts to notice the incredible woman that she grew up to be.

While Hailey struggles to balance finding her strength with navigating her budding attraction to her older sister's best friend, Jax has to decide if his new feelings for Hailey are helping or hurting her journey.

Can Jax and Hailey start something new while the past is hovering over their heads? Or will Hailey’s scars hurt them both?

2 Fights is the second novel in the Fight Game series but can be listened to as a standalone. It is a friends-to-lovers sports romance featuring strong language and explicit sexual scenes. Listener discretion is advised!

Best audiobook I have listened to in a long time

I enjoyed every moment of 2 fights. The narrators were fantastic. The duet narration was seamless. They really put emotion into the characters and made it so fun to listen to.

Sports romance (MMA), best friend’s sister romance, with heavy emotions!

2 Fights is the 2nd book in The Fight Game series. We get hints of this couple in the first book and I was so excited to see their romance play out. The audiobooks for book 1 and 2 recently released and it was the best experience rereading that way! This is an amazing contemporary romance series centered around characters in the MMA world and set in Philadelphia. This book is best friend’s younger sister, with the hero being childhood best friends with the heroine’s sister.

This book does start off with a heavier, emotional story dealing with domestic abuse. Thankfully Hailey does get out of that relationship but she, rightfully so, has a lot of baggage and things to unpack from that experience. Around this same time, Hailey quickly gets into a relationship with one of her childhood friends, and her sister’s best friend, Jax. Jax has been in her life since she was 10 and they were neighbors, he’s always been her protector and it was so nice to see them both start to have feelings for one another at the same time. There wasn’t any long term pining happening, they both just started to see one another differently at the same time.

I just really enjoyed this book just like I did the first book. This one starts off before events of the first book but then does also catchup and have some overlap, I liked seeing Remy and Tristan (the couple of book 1). Remy is Hailey’s sister and Jax’s best friend, Tristan is Remy’s boyfriend and Jax’s roommate. We do see both Jax and Hailey figuring out their career paths, Jax considering retiring from MMA and focusing on his day job and Hailey juggling college, a job in the restaurant business with her dreams of opening a restaurant one day. There is some delicious sharing of a hotel room/one bed for a trip they take together. I really enjoyed their connection and chemistry. And I really liked how Hailey’s previous toxic relationship was handled, she didn’t know how to be in a healthy relationship where there is honest communication and she had a lot to work through. I liked how the book shows how hard it is for someone to leave an abusive relationship or even come to terms with the fact that the partner they are with is toxic. I think it was handled really well. We also get a glimpse of the next book’s couple!

They’re my favorite

Jax and Hailey the second time around was so dang good and on audio was pure perfection. Duet none the less was absolutely amazing. I still hate Steve, possibly even more than before! But just love how much Jax is there to support Hailey and be her rock and encourage her.

Emma Wilder is one of my favorite female narrators, so having her apart of one of my favorite authors books was such a delight. JF Harding is one I haven’t listened to too much, but I will definitely look for more audios with him after this one. They were such an ear pleasure together!

*prior review from original read*
Oh my goodness! I was ready for Jax and Hailey, but so not ready for them. Jax is so filthy and HOT! Fan me now! I loved everything about them and their relationship and how it blossomed.

We start with Hailey in that toxic relationship with Steve, blah! We are well aware of what she went through from 5 Rounds, and clearly I can’t imagine anyone is a fan of Steve. It sets us up to learn a lot more about Hailey and who she was and how that relationship changed her and then watch her come into her own again after.

Jax is Haileys older sister, Remy’s best friend. Though the relationship between Hailey and Jax has always been something different. He is fiercely protective over her and clearly cares about her deeply. Nothing was every right time or right place for them. First it was age but then relationships got in the way, until now. These two don’t want to deny the way they feel about each other, but still feel this awkward presence of Rem effecting them.

I just absolutely obsess over how Nikki Castle writes her men! They are strong and protective and possessive and dirty in all the ways that count. Her steam is top notch and her story line is incredible. You can watch something bloom and unfold on the pages before you. She is going to be a force with upcoming books, I just know it.

Giant, Dirty Talking Teddy Bear!

I really love Jax and Hailey! Their story was romantic, sexy, heartbreaking and hopeful! Hailey is just getting out of a long term relationship with a complete narcissist, who was constantly gaslighting her. Her self esteem has taken a hard hit. Jax is the gentle giant protector, who is now seeing little Hailey as more than his BF little sister. I loved how their relationship grew and evolved. I really can’t wait for book 3!
