When Katie Lloyd finds out that her stepfather is dying, she’s determined to get to him, no matter what. Thwarted by transportation problems and challenged by bad weather, she ends up having to accept help from the one person she can’t imagine being trapped in a car with on a five-day road trip: Adam Pierce. He’s huge, muscled, arrogant and ferocious, and Katie and Adam have done nothing but argue since the moment they first laid eyes on each other. But desperate times call for desperate measures… and Katie is desperate. Adam may admire Katie’s talent as a photographer, but she’s also the most frustrating and stubborn woman he’s ever met. When an accident reveals Katie’s shocking dark past to him, Adam changes from aggressor to protector. No matter what it takes, he’s resolved to get her home to face the man who made her childhood a living hell. And then, afterwards – if Katie will let him in and close – Adam wants to be there to help her pick up the pieces. In the bedroom and outside of it.From the AuthorDear readers,  A few quick notes: First, although 'Fighting Strong' is the second book in a series and it would be helpful to know the characters' 'back stories', you can read this book as a stand-alone piece of writing.  Second, the heroine in 'Fighting Strong' is the survivor of child abuse and there are some disturbing events described in this book... please be aware of that when purchasing it. And finally, I love to write steamy, sexy, slinky romances, so yes indeed, the love scenes are descriptive. Some graphic language is used, so please be prepared for that when considering downloading one of my books. Thank you so much for your interest and support! Warmly, Marysol
