When life brings you the perfect person at the worst possible time…
On a weekend visit to Las Vegas to visit his brother, Marine Braeden Daniels meets a woman who challenges him in ways he can’t deny. The best part is she wants what he wants.
No strings. No feelings. Just fun.
AJ is a Las Vegas performer who is finally living her dream. Growing up poor, she’s determined to succeed at any cost. No one will stand in her way—not even a hot Marine who breezes into her life all confidence and a cocky smile.
A few stolen weekends and neither can deny the feelings quickly growing between them. But the obstacles that keep them apart become more devastating when the Marine Corps calls Braeden away for a six-month deployment.
It’s only six months.
What could possibly happen?

The Fighting series by J.B. Salsbury is one of my favorites and has a special place in my heart. I read the first book four years ago, and have been a fan of the author ever since. It was bittersweet when I heard that this book would be the last one in the series. I have been through so much with the characters and I love them. I loved that they all were present in this book, it made me want to reread all their stories. Let me stop reminiscing and get back to The Final Fight. This book is about Marine Braeden Daniels, who is Blake Daniels' (main character in the second book: Fighting to Forgive) younger brother. His love interest is AJ, who is an acrobatic performer in Las Vegas. I really enjoyed how they met and their chemistry together. Both are married to their jobs and don't really have time for a committed relationship. I liked that there was no miscommunication about that. They were both upfront with how things would go down, and I really appreciate that. Of course eventually feelings come into play, and decisions have to be made.
Even though I enjoyed this book, it wasn't my favorite. I don't know why, but it was a bit difficult for me to connect to AJ and Braeden. I liked AJ more than I did Braeden, even though he was such a nice guy. He made some decisions and acted in a way that I didn't support. There was even a moment that I was hoping that they didn't end up together. Thankfully, the author managed to convince me that these two belonged together. I just wanted these two to spend more time together, and really grow as a couple. I think that was what I was missing the most in this book. Overall, The Final Fight was a solid contemporary romance with interesting characters. There was one side character, who I hope will get his own book, because I am kind of in love with him.
