Resumen del Editor

If they want their happily ever after, they’ll have to fight time—and thousands of miles—for it....

Braeden

No strings. No feelings. Just fun. That’s all I have to offer. I’m a soldier, not husband material, and I have no problem with that. Especially since she feels the same.

AJ challenges me in ways I can’t deny, but romance isn’t on our agenda. A hot fling suits us just fine.

Until it doesn’t....

AJ

Nothing is going to come between me and my dream job. Not even a sexy marine who breezes through Vegas all confidence and a cocky smile. But as it turns out, there’s more to Braeden than meets the eye—and I want to learn all his secrets.

Then I find out he’s about to be deployed, and everything changes. Because time waits for no one. I wonder if the same can be said for love....

The Final Fight, book eight in the Fighting series, is an emotional, angsty, contemporary, steamy military romance with a guaranteed HEA. Download today to get ready to fall for Braeden and AJ.

great

it was the best i cried in this one. the whole series was GREAT but this one moved me.

Say it Ain't So

Is this series really over? I've noticed a pattern that my favorite books in the series are the ones with Blake and his brother Braeden. I loved the chemistry and camaraderie these brothers shared. The jokes and hard times these two always dished out kept me smiling and when life got tough the love and devotion still kept me smiling, but with tears in my eyes. This book was full of love, laughs and tears.

Braeden and AJ meet and fall in love at the worst time in both of their lives. They are both devoted to their respective careers and neither is ready to let anything or anyone get in the way of their drive and determination. Yet neither can deny the instant chemistry these two have and agree to a no strings, long term 'hook up' whenever Braeden is in town. That is until Braeden gets deployment orders. Before he leaves he tells her not to wait for him and if someone better comes along it's ok to fall for him and give it a chance. Little did he know that during that time AJ's boss would start his quest to win her heart. I wanted to hate him, I really did since I was Team Braeden, but the guy really was a good guy. With only a couple weeks left in his deployment there is an accident and Braeden's life changes forever. With no word from Braeden well after the 6 month mark when he should have been home and in contact, AJ fears the worst, lacks concentration and has her own accident at work and then her life changes forever.

A chance meeting at a fundraiser finally reunites these two but neither of them are the same person they were almost a year before. Braeden still loves her, but feels she is better off with her wealthy 'normal' boss who can take better care of her and she feels that Braeden just never loved her like she loved him and he's over her. Even with that thought AJ is determined to bring back to life the Braeden she knew and fell in love with. She keeps showing up at his house to push him to be better and get stronger and not give in to his injuries.

One thing leads to another and you just can't deny love and chemistry. I absolutely loved the ending and totally loved Deacon. I so wish there was a book on him. He could have been a long lost brother to Blake and Braeden the way they all had the same sense of humor. It was great how they brought him back from the same darkness Braeden fell into and helped him become his old self again, but I would have loved to have him get his Happily Ever After with someone...hence his own book would have been great.

This series was a total hit for me and I will certainly miss these characters since I've been listening to the series for the last 10 days and they've become a part of my daily life at work. I saw there is a side book called Uncaged that is the story of Sadie and Jack. It appears to be a short one and I can't wait to see how Jonah and Raven's little girl falls for Blake and Layla's son Jack. I wish it was on Audible, but I am still totally getting it on Amazon so I can read it.

Worth the buy

This one wasn't in the romance collection so I was iffy if I wanted to use my credit to buy it but it was completely worth it. I love the Daniels' story best and it was a nice continuation of it that wrapped it up nicely. Now she just needs to write a stand alone with that family.

LOVED IT!!!!!

I haven't read the other books in this series but you don't need too. I REALLY LOVE the narrators. She's my fav!

This is the best of theseries

I lived the entire series and want to start all over again. This book was very sweet and of course had a happy ending. The narrators were great

Loved this series, but this is my favorite.

Loved this series, but this is my favorite. Thank you, JB, for writing B & A's story with just the right amount of heartache & healing.

Five HOT and heartfelt stars

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would absolutely recommend this audiobook to a friend. The story is gripping right from the beginning. Then takes you through the journey of Braeden (the dedicated US Marine) and AJ (an aspiring acrobat in Las Vegas). Their path is easy and fun, until responsibilities interrupt. The two are faced with individual obstacles that have you cheering them on. Rooting for success against the fight that destiny has thrown at them. Watching them come full circle had me hooked, and hanging on every chapter until they reach the end game.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved how it sent the message of overcoming hardship. Of sticking by the ones you love, even if it's not the easiest path. Because in the end, it was absolutely the right decision, no matter the struggle.

What does Ryan West and Erin Mallon bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I've been a fan of both Ryan and Erin since the first Fighting series audiobook. And holy moly, they themselves have gotten even better with every new release. Erin's hits every single emotion throughout the story and has you feeling everything AJ does. She pulls you straight into the pages of the book, adding a dimension you don't get simply by reading.

Ryan... oh Ryan. Your voice has gotten even stronger and more gritty over time. The deep base of his vocal range reflects perfectly on the sweet and funny, but very rugged marine that is Braeden Daniels. And just like Erin, pulls you into the story giving you the sense that you're right in it. Watching it unfold.
These two are so so talented, and I look forward to things to come.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not wanting to reveal any spoilers, I will say... The second half has an entire sequence with Braeden that had me so invested, I found myself doing nothing but listening to the book. Wondering how the story would unfold, and finding that it in the end, JB Salsbury nailed it!

Any additional comments?

My overall review of the story itself:

The book opens with a confident/cocky, and sexy marine, Braeden Daniels, who meets AJ Pines, a Las Vegas acrobat.

AJ is the perfect counterpart to Braeden. He's a true Daniels boy, and doesn't lack any of the humor and whit we've come to expect from JB Salsbury.

Even though these two are a perfect match, life doesn't always move in the perfect direction. That's when the story grabs you by the hair and I'll be honest... is nearly impossible to put down. ( causing me to ignore the dishes piling up in my sink ;) )

I swooned, blushed, cried, and laughed my butt off. This story will be forever one of my all time favorites.

Angst filled military romance!

I’ve really enjoyed every book in this series and I loved this particular story! The heroine is a sweet young woman who recently moved to Las Vegas to work at a casino in an aerial/acrobatic show, also working extra as a bartender to make money. The hero is a career Marine who meets her while visiting his brother in Las Vegas and they have a sizzling hot affair. He is very reluctant to start any kind of long term relationship because he knows he will be deployed soon to the Middle East and his career doesn’t allow for much permanency. She’s dedicated to becoming successful in her performing and hoping to become wealthy, so she’s really not looking for anything long term either. Too bad they can’t seem to forget about each other! Then he’s deployed and captured by the enemy after he’s severely injured. She thinks he’s just decided not to return her affection. There’s a lot of pain in store for them both and there’s a long road back to each other. Narration was well done.

Love This Book Series!

I read the whole Fighting Series and absolutely loved ALL the books! I hope JB Salsbury will decide to continue the series! Must read these books if you haven't!

Loved It!

I loved the whole Fighting Series!! I did not want it to end 😢 😢!!
