When Ivy is placed in Dax's care neither of them are prepared for the fallout. As enemies close in around them, Ivy and Dax must be prepared for the fight of their lives.
Fighting Fate by Scarlett Finn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Fighting Fate by Scarlett Finn is a dark and twisty novel about an unlucky girl in Vegas and the Mafia enforcer that ends up taking her.
If you enjoy a novel that embodies the darkness in people with eventual redemption but a rough and painful journey to get there then this is for you. You will quite probably join me in shaking your proverbial fist at Dax's behaviour and bad attitude and bemoaning Ivy's terrible luck.

Excerpt:
His intimidating height came closer and although she had a wall at her back, she didn’t recoil in the shadow he cast over her.
‘Do you think you’re a tough girl?’ he asked. ‘You have no idea what you did tonight, no idea what I’m capable of. You should never piss off a man who has no conscience.’
‘If you’re like that, then I guess that’s why your buddy Trystan keeps you around,’ she said. ‘I don’t know who you are, or your connection to each other. But threatening me won’t win you any favour with him. So if you’re hoping that this little intervention will get you between his sheets—‘
‘You don’t know when to quit,’ he sneered, bearing down upon her. ‘You couldn’t keep your eyes off me tonight, is that why you’re obsessing about my bedroom?’
‘Obsessing—‘
Urging her back to the wall, he blocked her in, placing his forearms on the wall on either side of her. ‘Is that why you fought Tryst so hard? Were you disappointed that I wasn’t the man above you?’
With what little space she had, she managed to bring her hand across his face in a half-force slap and his lip curled to display a perverted satisfaction. Then jerking forward he snatched her hands and slammed them to the concrete that they leaned on.
‘You want to get physical with me, you minx, then you better be damn sure about it.’
‘Get off of me,’ she protested, trying to wrench herself free, but to no avail.
