I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
OMG I loved this book!!!
Theo is 25 and will be retiring after his next MMA fight, with one week of training left he is told he has a visitor. He never thought he would see Mackenzie again, she just disappeared 3 years ago. She is the love of Theo’s life, he never told her how he felt.
Mackenzie has been on the run for 3 years, she had to leave the one man she ever loved. She has secrets that she is trying to protect Theo from. But she needed to see him again.
The story is so heartbreaking, the twists ,the turns, the secrets. Omg I could not put this book down, I stayed up until my eyes ached reading this book. I just could not put it down until I finished it. It made me cry years of sadness, frustration, and joy. I LOVED Moody, I really really hope we get to read his story soon.
I highly highly recommend this book!!!!
This is my first time reading this story and boy did it not disappoint. This story pulled me in from the start until the end. I very much loved this story but of course I love this authors book’s. This is definitely one book that is worth the read.
This is my opinion and my voluntary review
Ding, ding
This book is a total take down… It throws you to the ground and puts you right at the edge of your seat.
I couldn’t just tap out, and miss E-O and the entire thing… I’m on my way to meet Moo…( read the book to know what I mean)…
I’ve had gotten this book originally, as a free – one day offer via Amazon. Then had the opportunity to receive it as an advanced copy. And let me say, there’s nothing different. Both versions are great to read. And yes I read them both.
And I would do it again…. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it…
So, if any opinions expressed within this review are made, they’re made solely and uniquely written by me, and I am happily leaving this review…
I thoroughly enjoyed this fighter romance book.
I love a bossy alpha hero with a soft heart but throw in a second chance romance, a secret baby and I’m a happy girl indeed.
I loved the writing style told in first person dual pov and the balance between plot, angst, and hotness.
I will definitely be reading more in this series
*Contains no cheating and leads to a heartwarming hea
It takes talent to pick the usual ingredients and transform it into a captivating story. CM’s Theo has exactly that: talent. Theo and Mac’s tale is older than time. There are moments you actually want to slap some sense into the heroine, but even those are well written that don’t last long enough for it to ruin the story. Quite the opposite. Theo’s strength and kindness are riveting, sexy, endearing, and you can’t help but root for their happy ending!
I really enjoyed this well written story and characters! Seabrook writes the ugly side of life very well!! Look forward to reading more!!
This book was a perfect mix of chemistry and steam I kept hoping there was more the closer I got to the end great weekend read

Who does not love a strong man with a stronger passion for fighting and loving. Theo is a book that makes you believe in second chances at love. Will these two make it or break the second chance they have been given. This books holds you on the edge of your seat with the suspense and longing you desire.
I like this story is written in dual POV which gives the reader more of the feelings and thoughts of the main characters. It makes the story more whole and real.
Likeable characters that are well described and develops nicely through the story. They have a nice chemistry. Sometimes I feel like the main characters where a bit immature. I nice second chance romance but way to much happens sometimes and that makes it a bit confusing.
I like the twists and the emotional ups and downs.
I seriously love this authors books and the s a really great one. The characters are good and keeps you hooked. Loved Theo and Mac ad their relationship. She left once he won’t let her go again.
The intense and drama packed storyline left me immersed in a story that I just couldn’t put down. I thought both characters were amazing. He was written perfectly…the dialogue between them was fantastic and believable. She was young so her actions were believable as well given her upbringing. I thought the story well written and I look forward to reading more from this author.
Loved Theo and Mac. 5 stars!! I loved reading this book and I’m looking forward to reading book 2 in this series. I voluntarily reviewed a Advanced Reader copy of this book. Great read.
Mackenzie and Theo are going to fight for their second chance no matter the stakes. She left without a trace or so it would seem to him, but now Mac has come back and Theo is not letting her ghost him again. She had reasons she still can’t share and an even bigger reason to keep him at arm’s length, but it Theo and there is no denying him or them. Theo needs answers and he needs Mac. He lost her once and losing her again is not an option. When he starts to unravel her secrets it’s a one two right on the chin. When he learns she is still in trouble he knows he won’t hesitate to jump in and take any blows on her behalf.

Fighting Blind: Theo (MMA Romance Book 1) by C.M. Seabrook is a Contemporary, Suspense, New Adult Romance. A must read!

Loved it from page one, Theo and Mack (and even little Logan) are definite favorites. At times hot and steamy, at other times tragic. Definitely wanted a happily ever after for all on this one. Read it all in one sitting, I bet you will too. If you haven’t picked up a copy already, do it as fast as you can!
OMG! What can I say…Theo stole my heart!! Theo is a 25 year old MMA fighter who planed on retiring after his next fight. Little does Theo know his life is going to go in a different direction when Mackenzie Brooks comes back into town after disappearing for 3 years. Theo’s love for Mac is so strong even after all that time of not seeing her. The chemistry was still there smoldering waiting to be ignited again. Will Mac regret going home and back to Theo? Will her dark past and secrets come back to haunt them both? I really loved the second chance love story between Theo and Mac. The characters were well developed, the story well written, a great HEA and talk about some steamy hot sex.
I thought this was a great read. Great characters and storyline. I received an arc copy to review and this is my voluntary review.
