From USA Today bestselling author KL Donn comes the all new Uncontrolled Heroes series where the heroes took over and decided they all get a little lovin’.Cade Larrabee is…done. Done with love. Done with women. Done with basically any and everything that isn’t his kids or his bike shop. After their mom decided she was done with family life, Cade knew where his focus should be.In need of … where his focus should be.
In need of childcare, and someone to help around the house, Cade goes in search of a nanny. One who is as plain as Jane but can be compassionate enough to handle Mac–a boy who keeps acting out–and Lily–his sweet girl who needs a woman’s touch.
Petal Davies proves to be the perfect nanny. The perfect friend. The perfect…everything. Not only does she put up with his cranky attitude, but she gives it right back to him.
Petal shows Cade day after day, time and again that not only is she the perfect woman for him, she’d be the perfect mom to his kids, and she’s mostly certainly A Girl Worth Fighting For.
Falling in love isn’t always planned and when you least expect it, your heart decides for you. Come on over to Long Beach, California to find out who falls in love, who gets naughty on the beach and if family truly is everything.

I swear I devoured it in the wee hours of the morning and when I was like done I was like NOPE I want more! I LOVED IT! Smashing Hit for me ALL. THE. WAY.
Now I’ve loved all KL Donn books .. but this one? I LOVED LOVED it ya know? It go’s right up there on my reread first list. Like Carver, King, the Hogan brothers..
I loved Petal… shes my favorite kind of Heroine.. strong, badass, knows her mind but also has a soft, sweet, emotional underbelly for those she loves. S
Cade was good too. A Grouchy Alpha who because of a few problems with OW before is hesitant and afraid to put him and his kids out there. So he acts like an a$$hat a few times but he learns fast.
I loved Mac ,Lily and Roman!
cant wait for Jace and Beckett!
Girl for me you knocked this one outa the PARK!
So, this is a short sweet story featuring a somewhat cynical single dad and a lovely, spirited, and amazing lady who both have to overcome past disappointments to get their happily ever after. KL Donn always delivers an amazing story that is full of emotion. I cried, laughed, and cheered during the more amazing aspects of this book, especially when the lovely Petal was making her views known. I definitely recommend reading but please realize this is a short story that moves very quickly.
A Girl Worth Fighting For by K.L. Donn a five-star read that will make you bloom. This was a sweet and compelling story that will blow you away, Cade Larrabee is a complex man, and his kids are beyond cute, but have been through so much they deserve so much more. Much like Petal Davies herself, this was short, and I could have handled another couple of hundred pages but as it was it all wrapped up nicely and led on to some amazing characters I can’t wait to meet. Pick it up you won’t be disappointed.
Loved this amazing beautiful intense love story of Cade and Petal.Need so much more of them and the brothers ready for Jace
So not what I was expecting, so what I was needing.
Petal and Cade were meant for each other. Whatever he dished out, she took and gave it right back. Lily and Mac were great. Really excited to see where this goes with Jace, Calla, Beckett and ?.
Really loved this book. Kl Donn just keeps getting better and better. I am so ready for the next one.
Wow this book was amazingly written. Once I started I couldn’t put it down till I was finished. This book has twists and turns you don’t know what’s happening. will they all get there happily ever after or will it all go wrong. To find out what happens go buy the book. You won’t be disappointed I wasn’t.
This was a sweet read from beginning to end and it has left my heart happy and full. Cade is a wonderful single father who loves his kids but is being pulled in so many directions that he needs help. Enter Petal a woman that’s destined to be a mom with a sassy an firecracker attitude that gets under his skin in the best of ways. This pair is so made for each other that the love pours off the pages. Great novella that will leave you wanting more!!!!
OMG, what a beautiful story!!!!
This was a truly beautiful and emotional story. Cade has two wonderful children, but he is so busy trying to keep up with everything including his business that he needs the help of a nanny. Enter Petal, a beautiful, sassy, strong willed, take no crap kind of girl. She instantly falls in love with Cade’s kids and she’s definitely attracted to Cade. But both Petal and Cade have been hurt before by people from their pasts, so it’s hard for either of them to admit that might actually like each other. This is a great story and to find out what happens between these two wonderful people grab this book today and read their story. I highly recommend it!!
Wow Cade and Petal’s story pulled me in from page one. Along with the two kids and dog that melted my heart so much. He knows he needs help with his kids and Petal is the perfect nanny although he wants more with her and she does too, just as much as the kids do. I really enjoyed this sweet, short story!
Oh, I really loved this book. I really needed it.
I loved the instant connection Cade and Petal had. Even before they knew they had one. And the connection Petal had with Cade’s children Mac and Lily was strong and simply amazing. Petal was badass and not one to back down from anyone. Which was really fun to watch when it came to a certain woman from Cade’s not so distant past.
A few times I had the strong (very strong) urge to reach through my kindle and strangle Cade. Men do not make smart choices sometimes.
Overall, I really enjoyed this story. This is one of those books that I wish was 100k words because I was just loving it so much and I didn’t want it to end. I was so sad when I got to that second epilogue because I knew the ending was a page a two away.
I guess I will just wait as patiently as I can for “until later this year” for the next book. I’m very excited and can’t wait to see what Jace does with the girl that was meant to be his.
This is such a short sweet HEA Book. A romantic story, I just love Petal. Cade a tattooed sexy dad looking for help and in walks Petal who straight away doesn’t take any nonsense and gives as good back. A story of two people who haven’t had it easy but find love when they aren’t looking for it. You gotta love a strong women who gives as good as she gets and that’s Petal. Can’t wait for more well done KL Donn Another winner.
*sigh! My heart is full! Five huge gold stars for KL Donn for another fantastic read. She never fails to pull me in…..and I was a goner from the first page. I inhaled this deliciously, hot, sweet read in one sitting!
Cade needs a nanny for his children and after perusing a nannying website, clicks on Petal (well technically he didn’t click, Jace did!).
Their connection is instant, Petal is feisty, sassy and will go toe to toe with anyone who messes with those close to her and whom she cares about.
Yes, there were tears, and that got me unexpectedly. I mean, there are usually tears when I read a KL book but these sneaked up on me!! This book was just what I needed!
I absolutely devoured this book. I feel in love with Petal in prologue. Cade was rough around the edges and quite a few times I wanted to chuck something at him. Lily and Mac stole my heart too. You will fall in love with Roman too. I’m left with a few lingering questions that will be answered in due time. Can’t recommend this short but oh so sweet book enough
