Synopsis
If you’re thinking this is the typical MMA romance…you’re wrong.
When we were ten, he treated me like a friend.
When we were eighteen, he wanted nothing to do with me.
And now that we are twenty-two, he longs to claim every single inch of me.
He was wild–untamed.
And I, a reckless girl, who loved too hard.
But, what we had was special.
I was his serenity and he my protector.
Drake was consumed by my love…
but he also took advantage of it…
He’d broken my heart–left me hanging for years.
He ruined us.
And, now, he’s back.
He wants me.
And I want to hate him, I really do.
But, who am I kidding?
No one can deny Drake Davenport.
You can’t hide from the almighty DOOMSDAY.
Because he is a fighter.
And, just like me, he loves hard.
He never loses and he will fight as hard as he can if it means winning me back.

Tracey’s Review
The unlikely love story between Jenny Roscoe and Drake ‘Doomsday’ Davenport began at age 10, when they recognized each other as a safe place, each accepting the other for who and what they were. Against all odds, and across years, the love that they felt for each other was tested, time and again, until their differences proved to be too much. But as two halves of a whole, Jenny and Drake prove that time and distance is no barrier to true love.
When given the opportunity to read DOOMSDAY LOVE by author Shanora Williams, I jumped right in. I am a sucker for books about MMA/fighters, and this one seemed to be a perfect fit. Let me begin by saying that, while I appreciate the appeal of the New Adult genre, I am not their biggest fan, mostly because I am rather far beyond the age range covered. That being said, I have to say that Shanora has done a fine job of writing a book that will appeal to a variety of readers.
While the ‘Past’ part of the story was important for background, I especially enjoyed the ‘Present’ part of the book, and felt more connected with the characters once they’d had a chance to grow into themselves, and find themselves as individuals. Drake, especially, emerged as a man that has learned from his past, and is willing to continue to evolve in order to be better in every way.
If you’re a fan of second-chance romances interwoven with redemption, forgiveness, and new beginnings, DOOMSDAY LOVE is for you. Don’t wait to add it to your TBR.
