•••••••••••••

REVIEW: WORTH THE FIGHT is the first instalment in K. Bromberg’s contemporary, adult THE MALONE BROTHERS erotic, romance series focusing on the Malone brothers: Grant, Grayson and Grady Malone. This is firefighter Grady Malone, and singer/songwriter Dylan McCoy’s story line. WORTH THE FIGHT can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: WORTH THE FIGHT was previously released as COMBUST (Everyday Heroes 2)

Told from dual first person perspectives (Dylan and Gray) WORTH THE FIGHT follows songwriter Dylan McCoy in the aftermath of catching her long time lover and writing partner –rock star Jett Kroger- in the bed with another woman. Hoping for some alone time to write, Dylan’s brother Damon sends our heroine to Sunnyville where she will meet and temporarily settle down with Grady Malone-a broken and embittered firefighter battling demons of his own. What ensues is the building relationship between Grady and Dylan, and the potential fall out when Dylan’s time in Sunnyville comes to an end.

Dylan McCoy has contractual obligations including another twenty-four songs for rock star Jett Kroger-the man who broke her heart but refuses to let go of the past. Staying with firefighter Grady Malone finds our heroine considering a possible future but a future fraught with the worries and agony of which she is all too familiar. Already scarred from a fatal fire Grady struggles to move on with his life as he struggles with PTSD and survivors guilt.

The relationship between Grady and Dylan is one of immediate attraction but Grady has no plans for a happily ever after knowing the life of a firefighter leaves too many widows and orphans in their wake. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are reintroduced to Grady’s brothers: police officer Grant and his wife Emerson (Cuffed #1), and rescue pilot Grayson Malone and his son Luke, as well as their parents police Chief and Betsy Malone; several firefighters including Dempsey, Dixon, Veego, Bowie, Mack and Wes Winters; Shelby and Brody; rock star Jett Kroger, and record studio personnel Kai, Henry and Callum.

The world building focuses on family and friendship; on the dangerous world of first responders, and the fall out of the disasters waiting to happen.

WORTH THE FIGHT is an emotional story line as one man struggles with memories from the past, and one woman battles issues of self-esteem. Their mutual walls slowly begin to crumble but time and the inevitable good-bye dampen any hopes for a happily ever after. The premise is captivating and alluring; the romance is passionate and hot; the characters are damaged, hopeful and real. K. Bromberg invites the reader into her world of ‘everyday heroes’ and the women they love.
