Revive Me: An MMA Fighter’s Journey to Love and Healing

Revive Me by Nikki Castle

I applied for the ARC for this book through Chasing Books PR. Even though this is an ARC my review is 100% my true opinion.

Revive Me follows Roman, an MMA fighter who is about to have the biggest fight of his career, and Liliana, who is a Physical Therapist. Roman ends up with a spinal cord injury during his title match, leaving him unable to walk or fight. Fighting has been all Roman has known since he was a teenager, and he can’t fathom a life without it; he doesn’t know who he is without MMA. Roman has been to many PTs, but 2 years after his injury, he ends up at Liliana’s workplace, and it is up to her to get through to Roman and get him back on his feet. However, this wouldn’t be a romance book without the romance, would it, and Roman and Liliana fall for each other, but it’s complicated due to Roman being her patient.
