A Girl Worth Fighting For (Uncontrolled Heroes Book 1)

By K.L. Donn

After Cade Larrabee’s ex walks out on him and their two children, Cade decides to focus on two things: his kids, and his bike shop.

Realizing that he needed help, he goes in search of a nanny.

Petal Davies was abandoned by her Mom when she was just twelve years old, and although she never lacked the love of her Dad, she carried the pain of her mother’s abandonment to her adulthood.

Cade meets Petal, who proves to be not just the perfect nanny to his kids, she also becomes the perfect friend. Not only does she put up with his cranky attitude, but she gives it right back to him.

This is the story of two souls brought together by fate, and their love for children.

This story is poignant, for whoever would want to be abandoned by one of the very people who brought them to life? I can understand losing a parent through illness–after a time we learn to accept that our parents are not immortal and that they are only here to guide us through life up to a point. To be abandoned and not knowing why is different. It can play havoc on a child’s confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth. That is why children, especially those born in this age of social media, should always have a strong support system that can teach them to become positive members of society.

I love the fact that A Girl Worth Fighting For is surprisingly light compared to other books penned by KL Donn. It shows to me that she is one I can come back to time and again and not be disappointed or bored every time.

I fell in love with Cade and Petal, and I hope that you fall in love with them too. And yes, I am looking forward to falling in love with Calla and Jace’s story!
