Mila
Pregnant and married at the young age of eighteen, I settled into my life not knowing there could ever be more.
Until Mason, with his cocky smirk and magnetic baby blue eyes. With a single look and a few words, he made me feel sexy and alive. But as quickly as he came into my life, he was gone, leaving me wanting more.
A few days later my mom died, and her final words of advice—life’s too short to settle—are what I vowed to live my life by. Not even a year after her death, I was divorced and ready to find the one.
Only I didn’t realize how difficult it would be to find someone who could make me feel the way Mason did. Five years later, and I’m still single, looking for my forever.
Mason
I’m the guy who fights and f*cks. The guy who goes fishing but never keeps what he catches. The responsibility that comes with commitment isn’t for me.
Until Mila comes back into my life making me want things I’ve never imagined wanting. Now, the man I’ve always been is quickly losing the fight against the man I want to be.
I’m supposed to want the woman who wants the right now. Yet, I’m falling for the woman who wants the forever.
“Mason!” Mila screeches. “Stop staring at me like I’m a piece of meat!” I smirk, imagining Mila splayed out in my bed, her legs spread wide open while I feast on her like she’s my last meal. “I wouldn’t call you a piece of meat. More like a piece of mouthwatering fruit.” I bridge the small gap between us. “Mmm…like a strawberry. I bet one bite into your sweet cunt and I would be addicted to your taste.” There’s a knock on the door and Mila moves away from me. “Well…” She gulps loudly. “It looks like you’ll need to find yourself some other fruit to bite into because this strawberry has a date tonight.” She swings the door open and standing in the doorway is the anti-touch jackass from the other night at the art studio. She says goodnight and they’re both out the door as quick as he came in. “What a prick.” I sit on the couch next to Charlie. “He’s okay.” She shrugs. “He’s a good dad and makes a good living. A little stuffy, maybe…” “He told his son tag was too violent. He’s a pussy.” “Hey! Don’t be hating on pussies. They’re tougher than you think. Just ask Betty White.” I grab the remote and click on the television, giving her a side-eye. “You know…because they can take a pounding.”

HOSTED BY:
We saw snippets of these characters in the other Fighting Love
series; however, you do not need to read the other books in the series to read
this Takedown. There is not a book yet in this series that you do not fall in
love with and this one takes your heart. Mason loved to “go fishing” for his
next “catch and release” is best how to describe his lifestyle. He fights
hardcore and while we know he has a softer side just from his actions with his best
friend’s story, this story truly shows how much heart he has. Think this is the
best way to state this to avoid any spoilers if someone did not yet read the
other books in the series. Mila settled in life to be the single mom she could
be, but her mom’s final advice stuck with her. Why? Cause “moms know best!”
Mila and Mason meet again years later, and both have to pause and see who is
going to knocked down or “Takedown” to fight against the trophy holding. Can I just
say not only do you fall in love with the story of the littles, but the ex was
the true “catch”? I loved this and so wish I could explain more, but you will
just have to read the story. I will say very grown up and wise though. This was
the perfect ending to this series and I hope we get a spin-off down the road
cause these MMA fighters know how to not only fight on the ring, but off the
ring. I highly recommend this book if you enjoy sports/single parents romance.
