Acclaimed author Katie McGarry returns with the knockout new story of two high school seniors who are about to learn what winning really means

Champion kickboxer Haley swore she'd never set foot in the ring again after one tragic night. But then the guy she can't stop thinking about accepts a mixed martial arts fight in her honor. Suddenly, Haley has to train West Young. All attitude, West is everything Haley promised herself she'd stay away from. Yet he won't last five seconds in the ring without her help.

West is keeping a big secret from Haley. About who he really is. But helping her--fighting for her--is a shot at redemption. Especially since it's his fault his family is falling apart. He can't change the past, but maybe he can change Haley's future.

Haley and West have agreed to keep their relationship strictly in the ring. But as an unexpected bond forms between them and attraction mocks their best intentions, they'll face their darkest fears and discover love is worth fighting for.

Take me on This book was so fast paced and so much fun to read. I really loved the relationship that developed between Haley and West. You meet West in the crash into you and I loved really learning more about him in this book and how much Crash into you events really effected him. 
 
Haley home life was so hard to read about but i know that so many people in the world have similar stories to Haley. I loved the brother characters that really tried to look out for her and they became my favorite characters. 
 
I think he concept of fights and running away was so large in this book for both lead characters and eventually they each became each other home. I mean when Haley left time i was so throwing my book against the wall and could not wait to see what happen.
 
I liked learning more about Abby and i know we get to read her story soon. 
 
I think also the abuse in this book that occurred was so important for young girls to read about and see the dangerous impact it could have on somebody life.
 
I really loved this book and the story that was told.

¿Este es el final de la serie Pushing the Limits? Goodreads no menciona ningún próximo libro de la serie y cuando le preguntan a Katie solo dice que “ojalá” puede volver a escribir un nuevo libro dentro de la serie. Y, vamos, tiene de donde, con los 3453645757 hermanos de Rachel más uno de los más encantadores personajes secundarios que leí en mucho tiempo, Abby, tiene de dónde sacar libro. Katie, Harlequin Teen, por favor, no me dejen en el aire, hay mucho ahí que quiero saber.

Hubo una cosa muy curiosa con este libro, todo iba bien, me gustaban los personajes, la historia es entretenida, Haley es mega ultra badass, pero luego… Viene la “Revelación” de unos personajes que me daban igual pero cambió completamente toda mis sentimientos respecto al libro.

Eso es lo interesante con los libros de Katie McGarry, uno espera leer tan solo la historia cliché, y te lo da en 80% del libro pero es ese 20% que puede hacerte amar más el libro, o en mi caso, hacerme sentir incómoda. Obviamente no puedo decir qué fue lo que pasó porque es una de las revelaciones principales del libro pero si alguien ya lo leyó me gustaría mucho que dijera algo en los comentarios (¡Pero cuidado con el spoiler a los demás, eh!)

Centrándome ahora sí en el libro es que me ha encantado como POR FÍN tenemos una escritora que no romantiza la violencia en una pareja. Sí, sé que me gusta el drama y la angustia con los personajes (sobre todo masculinos, que es básicamente lo común) que llegan a encontrar redención gracias y por la protagonista, luego de que ella sufra y sufra por parte de él. Pero en los últimos meses, veo más y más, como algo “ligero” se volvió un poco aterrador entre algunas lectoras (algunas bastante jóvenes) hablando y amando sobre personajes que ni siquiera yo, con mi amor por la angustia, aceptaría y del cuál huiría con orden de restricción incluida. Gracias Katie por recordarnos que el chico malo no siempre cambia y no siempre tiene un corazón de oro (No todos pueden ser Noah o Isaiah, lamentablemente).

Si hay un nuevo libro (y no me refiero a uno intermedio ¬¬) haciendo matemáticas con los libros de Katie, asumo que tendría como protagonista un Bad Boy sexy, así que no nos sintamos desesperadas, nosotras oh amantes de la redención.

Otro de los puntos que me gustó del libro es el respeto que tiene West por Haley, demostrando que no solo es una cara bonita sino también cerebro ya que conoce, respeta y admira (al menos la mayoría del tiempo :v) que Haley podría derrotarlo a él y unos cuantos más en una pelea.

Algunos giros inesperados, a veces difíciles de asimilar, reencuentros con personajes muy queridos de libros anteriores y una historia que amarán los fans de Katie McGarry

I love the Pushing the Limits series. It has just the right amount of grit and angst. Each story has a Cinderella feel without being overly obvious and redundant. West is so sweet that he makes me want to find a guy just like him and Haley is so strong and loyal I truly admire her. I just hope this isn't the last book in this remarkable series. ( )

It was probably better than I am giving it credit for, but I just feel like this formula is getting tired. It follows the same formula as most new adult, but for a YA audience. The two leads are royally screwed up and their demons make them think they are incapable of love but then they fall in love and help each other fight their demons. ( )
