Against the Odds
(2019)(Fighting the Odds)
(The fourth book in the Collision series)A novel by Kristen Granata
From bestselling author Kristen Granata comes a steamy MMA fighter office romance standalone.
TJ Cutler’s life has been anything but easy. Looking at him now, no one would guess that the successful MMA fighter and business owner was once a homeless drug addict who witnessed his father brutally murder his mother when he was just a child. But TJ knows how harsh reality can be for some, and he dedicates his life to helping those who are struggling like he once did.
Carla Evans thought that her life was perfect until everything fell apart. Determined to start over, she moves to a new town ready to check items off of her bucket list. She didn’t plan for a steamy one-night stand with a muscular, tattooed fighter. She also didn’t know that he’d end up being the boss at her new job a week later. She tries to keep things professional, but they're unable to resist their attraction to each other.
Carla is the uptight, buttoned-up contrast to TJ’s fearless and outgoing nature. He shows her how to live outside the box she constructed for herself, and pushes her past her comfort zone. But Carla soon realizes that TJ is the one in need of help – and love.
Can Carla break through the walls of TJ’s damaged past, or are his wounds too deep to be healed?
*Against the Odds is a standalone spinoff from characters in The Collision Duet. This book contains some graphic scenes and sensitive subject matter.
REVIEW
"Fantastically Heavy Read! Wow! What an emotional ride Kristen Granata takes her readers on. From the blurb, I thought it was going to be pretty cut and dry, bad ass guy and stuck up girl getting together. However, this was so much more". -- Tiffany Readz
"Kristen's writing continues to get better with every story. She is never afraid to write about real topics and loves making her readers go through a thousand emotions while reading her stories." -- Dorthy, GoodReads Reviewer
"This story made me feel everything. It consumed me. TJ and his demons, Carla and her struggles. Two characters that are totally right for one another. Kristen has a way with words and this book is written so beautifully." -- Lindsey Powell, Author
"I devoured this book in hours. TJ, what can I say? You had me at the one tattooed butt cheek. Beautifully told & heartbreaking at the same time." -- Nikki J Summers, Author
