Publisher's summary

Liz: I’m an 18-year-old high school graduate who has just experienced my first...well, everything.

I would give anything to hold on to Cooper, but we made a decision. After 30 hours of falling in lust, we’re parting ways. I’m starting college and can’t be distracted. Besides, he has his own life to get back to.

Cooper: The moment I saw her, I knew she was the one, but what my heart wants, it doesn’t get.

I know how life works. I’ve been fighting most of my life. My dad was a fighter, and so was his dad. I watched my mom cheat on him, and in return, he destroyed her. I will never do that to a woman. I get 30 hours with Liz, and then we’re both walking away. At the end of the day, all we’ll have are the memories we have created here in Miami.

Five years later, Liz runs into Cooper, only he has no idea that memories weren’t the only thing they created in Miami. He broke her heart once the day he left, and now she’s guarded. Will he succeed in winning her heart over a second time? The only thing he knows for sure is that he’s fighting for a second chance, and this time, he won’t let her go that easily.

Second chance done right

LOVED this book! I’m not usually a fan of second chance stories, but Nikki Ash knocked this one out the park. Lexi Evans and Tim Paige did an amazing job narrating & giving this story life.

A Heartfelt Story

Fighting for a Second Chance is an emotional rollercoaster romance that is hindered by the narrators. I read this story long before the audiobook came out, and it was a bit of a challenge reconciling how I thought the characters would sound versus how the narrator sounds.

This second chance romance has everything going for it.
Strangers who had an instant attraction. Never knew their full names, a surprise pregnancy. Mystery of who the father is.

Book 1 - Fighting series

This is book 1 in Ash's Fighting series and can be read/listened to as a standalone. Perfect dual narration in this dual point of view romance read. I loved this listen. Our main characters are Liz who is the definition of strength and innocence and Cooper who is strong and fighting scars and demons left by his parents. These two meet at a club and have a 30-hour stand - love that it's always more than just a one-night stand...and years later meet again and struggle to find their happily ever after that is so deserved. I love the twists that Ash provides in this storyline that had me gasping and still wanting more answers but knowing like these characters that answers will never be found and having to live with the life you are given and make the best of it. I love that Cooper, while a fighter, fights himself with trust issues and I believe with time will struggle less so with them. I love that Liz is patient and understanding of Coopers inner struggles and is the perfect fit to help him through. Such a beautiful read, easy to listen to and heartwarming. I can't wait to see what's next in this series!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.

Second chance romance.

Fighting for a Second Chance is book 1 in the Fighting series. This is a second chance romance.

Liz and Cooper’s journey was a good story. After spending 30 hours together, they parted as life took them down different paths. Years later they find each other again, and their chemistry is just as undeniable. Insecurities have them fighting for their happily ever after. Decent amount of drama, and their steamy moments were good. Loved their sweet ending, and I’m super interested in book 2.

Lexi Evans and Tim Paige did a really good job narrating these characters.

Second Chance Romance

Fighting for a Second Chance by Nikki Ash is a second chance secret baby romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Lexi Evans and Tim Paige. This is the first book in the Fighting series.

I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Cooper and Liz. It was a bit messy, but you couldn't help but root for them. I loved that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

I can't wait for the next book in the series Fighting With Faith to be released on audio so I can get Bentley and Kayla's story.

Lexi and Tim did an amazing on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you like second chance romances, secret baby romances, MMA romances, or contemporary romances.

Loved this audiobook

I am enjoying listening to Nikki Ash's audiobooks! This had several of my favorite tropes...sports, surprise pregnancy, single mom, second chance romance. I loved all the characters and hope we see them throughout the series. There were heartbreaking, as well as heartwarming, moments. The perfect amount of drama. I look forward to more from this author.

Tim Paige and Lexi Evans are excellent narrators. They were perfect for this audiobook. They brought the book to life with emotional performances. Love their voices.

Sweet Romance

This is the first book in the Fighting Series, a sports romance. I liked Liz and Cooper's instant attraction, and second chance romance. Liz is caring, and strong. Cooper, an MMA fighter, is handsome. The supporting characters are great. I loved Bella and Kayla. The story is sweet and heartwarming, filled with drama, and twists and turns. Looking forward to listening to Fighting With Faith, Kayla's story. Lexi Evans and Tim Paige did a good job bringing this story to life. I enjoyed it. #PFPAudio
