Publisher's summary
A toxic ex.
A girl who lost herself.
A childhood friend helping her find the way back.
When Hailey finally ends her relationship with her narcissistic ex-boyfriend, she thinks all her troubles have ended. But what she doesn’t realize is that the wounds he inflicted aren’t on her skin, but in the way she sees herself. And the only person capable of helping her heal has been in her corner all her life.
Jax has had a soft spot for the younger Porter sister ever since his family moved into their neighborhood. It feels like the most natural thing in the world to go from helping her with math homework, to holding her hand through a rough breakup years later. But as he starts to show her how beautiful and worthy she already is, he himself starts to notice the incredible woman that she grew up to be.
While Hailey struggles to balance finding her strength with navigating her budding attraction to her older sister's best friend, Jax has to decide if his new feelings for Hailey are helping or hurting her journey.
Can Jax and Hailey start something new while the past is hovering over their heads? Or will Hailey’s scars hurt them both?
2 Fights is the second novel in the Fight Game series but can be listened to as a standalone. It is a friends-to-lovers sports romance featuring strong language and explicit sexual scenes. Listener discretion is advised!

Story
Torren King is rock-and-roll’s broodiest bachelor. Mysterious, moody, and coveted by nearly everyone. But to me, he’s just the sad boy who set fire to my heart, then reduced me to ashes in the desert. For four sweltering nights, I burned for him, and he conquered my heart one whispered lyric at a time. But on the fifth night, he shattered me in the way only a flawless rock god can: irreparably, and with devastating finesse.

Story
Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

I take a risk for once and choose to be spontaneous and have one wild night with my boss.

I caught her staring at me from across the quad, eyes fixed on the football jersey stretched across my wide chest. And if I flexed my muscles, showing off the strength of a defensive tackle, it was just to see her blush. And then she did, and I couldn’t get her out of my mind. Her wide eyes. The freckles on her cheeks. I needed to know her. The girl who scampered away every time we bumped into each other—by accident and by design.

Being traded to the Boston Rebels could not have come at a better time. With serious family obligations to fulfill and a contract renewal with a new hockey team on the line, I have no time for anything else. I return to Boston knowing I need to buckle down and focus on what really matters.

Whip King cannot be the man for me. Cocky, pierced firefighters are perfect for late-night rom-coms, but in real life they’re nothing but trouble. Especially when you find out they work for your dad—after you’ve already slept with them. Moving to my parents’ small town was supposed to be the fresh start I was looking for. When a disastrous Valentine’s Day leads to an unexpected encounter with a sexy stranger, and ends with the hottest night of my life, I didn’t think I would ever see Whip again.

Bruised and abused, and victim to a loveless household, I shimmered with new life the moment he found me drowning my sorrows in a lake beneath the stars. A chance encounter. An unspoken connection. I was smitten. He was curious. But, as everyone knew, fate could be decidedly cruel. He called me Halley, like the comet. I called him Reed. And my best friend? Well… she called him Dad.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Hockey is my life. It's my only goal, my only escape. Everything was going according to plan. All I had to do was focus on the game, keep my head down, then get drafted into the NHL. Starting the year as the captain of FU should have made that easy, but now my attention is torn between the ice and taunting my rival's little sister, Madeline Peters. My only real solace is the mystery girl inside my phone who refuses to tell me her name. Then, one drunken knock on the wrong door brings Madeline into my bedroom.

I should have known everything was going to change when she walked into my tattoo shop... Timid as hell and gorgeous to the extreme. I knew better than even thinking about touching a woman like that. My life is dangerous. My calling wicked. Willing to cross any line to protect the innocent. I thought I’d never see her again until my little boy tumbled and busted his lip, and I found her working at the doctor’s office. The woman who’d taken possession of my thoughts. When it becomes clear she’s in trouble, I offer up a deal.

The Elite Kings Club left a trail of fear behind every person who whispered their names throughout the centuries that they'd existed. They were the product of every nightmare you were told as a child, only now, they don't go bump in the night. They race modified cars, throw parties to conceal their morbid games, and leave behind the kind of chaos that can never be tamed. They were from an ancient bloodline of the three Founding Fathers, and it was almost time for them to plunge deeper into the depths of hell.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Story
The Elite Kings Club left a trail of fear behind every person who whispered their names throughout the centuries that they'd existed. They were the product of every nightmare you were told as a child, only now, they don't go bump in the night. They race modified cars, throw parties to conceal their morbid games, and leave behind the kind of chaos that can never be tamed. They were from an ancient bloodline of the three Founding Fathers, and it was almost time for them to plunge deeper into the depths of hell.

2 Fights is The Fight Game: Book Two. This story follows Hailey and Jax, both characters that were introduced to us in 5 Rounds (book one) Hailey is Remy’s younger sister and Jax is their childhood friend. It was clear in 5 Rounds that Hailey was in a toxic relationship with her long term boyfriend, Steve. 2 Fights explored more of their toxic relationship until finally Hailey was at her breaking point and ended things with Steve. Jax being the protector, best friend and shoulder to cry on that he is, is there to help Hailey pick up the pieces. It quickly became apparent that there was white hot chemistry between the two but will Hailey be able to undo all of the negativity and lies Steve forced on her to go on and have a positive relationship with Jax or was the damage irreversible?
Once again another incredible book from Nikki Castle! I hate what Hailey endured during her time with Steve, but loved that Jax was able to show her how she should be treated! He helped her explore her kinks and never shamed her for them; he treated her like a queen both in and out of the bedroom. This third act breakup gutted me!! I was literally crying at my desk! The epilogue made up for it though.
Emma Wilder and J.F. Harding were the perfect fit for the job! Like I said, the third act break up gutted me and not only was it because of the writing but also because of their emotional performances during that chapter. Emma captured Hailey’s vulnerability and character growth perfectly. J.F. delivering Jax’s dirty talk was 😮💨

Jax is the best book boyfriend
Just finished listening to this book, and I am obsessed. There is only one thing better than reading Jax's dirty talk: listening to JF Harding narrate it. 🥵🔥🥵🔥🥵
I was initially hesitant about this book because I typically like my FMC's headstrong and my MMC's a bit mean/jerk-like, so I was worried I wouldn't like the people pleasing Hailey, and teddy bear Jax, but Nikki proved me wrong.
I am in love with this book because I think Nikki did such a great job portraying the mental aspect of both being in a relationship where you are treated poorly emotionally, as well as the mental aspect on future partners trying to help that person heal. Obviously it was up to Hailey to do the work, but Jax, Remy, and their friends needed to help show her how relationships should look like, and help her become empowered and able to stand on her own.
The narration was also top notch. Duet narration is the only way audiobooks should be produced. JF Harding and Emma Wilder are the perfect Jax and Hailey. I think they perfectly embody the flirty teasy friendship the characters have.

So good!
This is my first Nikki Castle audiobook listen.
2 Fights is tremendously moving, hot, and just outrageously good.
This audiobook had me from the very get-go. I just couldn't stop myself from devouring it. Lordy, this storyline!!!! It’s just a chef's kiss!
But I did just adore Jax’s character the most. He is every woman's fantasy man come to life in an audiobook version.
Plus Emma Wilder and J.F. Harding's narration was just top teier.

A friends to lovers fighter romance with an INCREDIBLE duet narration!!!!
WOW! This audiobook made me completely fall in love with Jax and Hailey!!! It’s a DUET narration that just took this story to the next level and I did not want to hit pause as I was so adsorbed into the story from their incredible performance! Thank YOU Nikki for putting so much care into your audiobooks as it shows and completely pays off!
📖2 Fights is such a powerful story that takes you on a journey and is truly a hard fought HEA. Hailey has endured so much toxicity and emotional abuse from her ex Steve that broke her down. While her sister’s best friend, Jax has always been there to support her, now their relationship begins to develop into more. Their romance is such a beautiful story of Hailey taking back her power while also getting so much support, care and love from Jax along the way. He was so perfect for her in every way including the small things such as allowing her to have every desire in the bedroom that she wanted which she had been made to feel ashamed about. And let me just say, that spice was SMOKING HOT in this book!!! Jax has quite the mouth on him and is definitely a king of dirty talk!!
🎧AUDIO REVIEW:
OUTSTANDING on audio!! It's a DUET narration by J.F. Harding and Emma Wilder who both took the words of this story and completely breathed life into them!!! They did a phenomenal job using their voices to perfectly express all of the deep feelings and emotions of their characters while also bringing out the palpable chemistry and of course sexy heat between them. There were moments where you could just feel the weight of sorrow in their voices during the tough moments and then the next chapter fanning yourself off listening to the dirty mouth of Jax in J.F. Harding’s deep sultry tone.
Overall, this is truly an audiobook that feels like you are watching their romance all play out on a screen as the acting skills of J.F. Harding and Emma Wilder perfectly captured Jax & Hailey as navigate their relationship turning from friendship to more from the hard moments to the sexy times. Simply incredible and easily one that I will be listening to again!!!

They’re my favorite
Jax and Hailey the second time around was so dang good and on audio was pure perfection. Duet none the less was absolutely amazing. I still hate Steve, possibly even more than before! But just love how much Jax is there to support Hailey and be her rock and encourage her.
Emma Wilder is one of my favorite female narrators, so having her apart of one of my favorite authors books was such a delight. JF Harding is one I haven’t listened to too much, but I will definitely look for more audios with him after this one. They were such an ear pleasure together!
*prior review from original read*
Oh my goodness! I was ready for Jax and Hailey, but so not ready for them. Jax is so filthy and HOT! Fan me now! I loved everything about them and their relationship and how it blossomed.
We start with Hailey in that toxic relationship with Steve, blah! We are well aware of what she went through from 5 Rounds, and clearly I can’t imagine anyone is a fan of Steve. It sets us up to learn a lot more about Hailey and who she was and how that relationship changed her and then watch her come into her own again after.
Jax is Haileys older sister, Remy’s best friend. Though the relationship between Hailey and Jax has always been something different. He is fiercely protective over her and clearly cares about her deeply. Nothing was every right time or right place for them. First it was age but then relationships got in the way, until now. These two don’t want to deny the way they feel about each other, but still feel this awkward presence of Rem effecting them.
I just absolutely obsess over how Nikki Castle writes her men! They are strong and protective and possessive and dirty in all the ways that count. Her steam is top notch and her story line is incredible. You can watch something bloom and unfold on the pages before you. She is going to be a force with upcoming books, I just know it.

Great sophomore book to the series
Overall Thoughts: I adored 5 rounds when I listened to it earlier this year, but 2 Fights was even better. I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of this book, from the plot to character development, the believability of the characters, and the narration was on point. Nikki takes great care and pride in her work and it shows. The natural shift in Jax and Hailey’s relationship is fun and interesting to watch, and the spice is so, so good. Emma Wilder gave an incredible performance, I hope she receives an award for this narration, and JF Harding who is one of my top narrators, made me melt into a puddle every time he called her ‘baby girl’. Swoon!
Narration: Duet narration, first-person present tense, multiple-POV with a few flashbacks
Tropes: mentally/emotionally abusive ex, boxer, café manager, sister’s best friend, childhood friends, exploring kinks, shows what a healthy relationship is, college student, trip to Vegas, finding herself again, dancer, baker, dirty talking MMC
Overall: 5
Spice: 3.5
Humor: 2.5
Drama: 3.5
Darkness: 2.5
Hailey has been with Steve for two years, but the relationship is taxing and when she finally realizes she is dating a narcissist, and he continues to shame and gaslight her, she finally stands up and dumps his sorry ass.
She moves in with her sister while she figures out her next steps while going to school and working at the café. She gets to reconnect with her sister and her friends who Steve had alienated her from for a long time, which includes her sister’s best friend, Jax. Things heat up and they try and fight their feelings, but eventually the dam breaks and they give in to their attraction.
Remy is worried that Hailey is moving on too soon and they will both end up getting hurt. When Jax sees how badly Steve damaged Hailey’s self-esteem, he has to make a decision about how best to help Hailey, even if it means breaking his own heart in the process.

Friends to lovers done so deliciously well 🥰
Emma Wilder and JF Harding deserve a standing ovation after this listen. I loved this story, Nikki, and these two playing Hailey and Jax in DUET NARRATION is a knockout. This story is relatively beefy, clocking in just shy of 14 hrs. I loved that there is plenty of background and world building to form both characters; and that it is inevitable that Jax and Hailey will find the right time on their paths to each other.
Hailey is a young twenty something who, at the start of the story, has been in a long term relationship with someone who makes her feel insignificant in all the ways that matter. Emma portrays Hailey’s efforts to appease her boyfriend with a yearning of a girl who is looking for her fairytale and truly thought she had it. As Hailey starts to recognize the toxicity and level of gaslighting that Steven brings to the table, Emma delivers a gripping performance of how a woman can find and yield her power to go after what she wants. It goes without saying that JF will really make you dislike Steven in the best way.
Jax has always been in Hailey’s life as her older sister’s best friend. Hailey always had a crush on him, but because of timing and being on different trajectories (not to mention his friendship with her sister) they never dated. He has been a witness to how her light has been dimmed, and once she has broken up with Steve, she becomes more present in his life than ever before. JF plays a steady and solid Jax— a man who is fiercely protective of his circle and will always do the honorable thing. And as the tension heats up between them, and Hailey and Jax discover their feelings and friendship in a seductive and secret-revealing dance…. Well, I bet you can guess where this is going. 😮💨
Emma and JF were nothing but delicious, emotive and wide-ranging when playing this cast of characters (which includes Hailey’s sister Remy and her boyfriend Tristan…who you see in 5 Rounds). When JF, as Jax, empowered Hailey to speak up about her interests and desires in the bedroom I FELT it in Emma’s performance as she allowed Hailey to blossom.
Thank you, Nikki, for this ALC. The story is a siren song that all women are capable of finding their self-worth outside of their relationships, and that the good partners are the ones who build you up to be your own powerhouse.

Nikki Castle is slaying the audiobook game!
JF did an amazing job capturing Jax’s sweet & tender side but also his rough and dominating side. I might be a Tristan girl, but I’d be lying if I said Jax didn’t make me blush
Emma is the perfect Hailey. The way she brought Hailey’s emotions, thoughts, and growth to life was so special. Hailey is such a kick ass character and her journey was so powerful and I love how Emma captured her essence perfectly!
Jax and Hailey’s chemistry is off the charts. You could feel it while reading the book and you ABSOLUTELY feel it during the audiobook. Emma & JF absolutely killed these spicy scenes - my brain short circuited & it was all I could think about. The spice was spicing between their first time and that belt scene, god damnnnn they were HOTTTTTTT🌶️🔥🥵
Nikki Castle is slaying the audiobook game! I LOVEEEE that these are duet narration; it’s such a game changer & the narrators Nikki picks completely embody her characters!

Loved this friends to lovers audio
This book was like coming back home. I remember Hailey & Jax in 5 rounds. Hailey breaking up with her controlling boyfriend Steve & staying with them. Okay I legit hate Steve. Like hello narcissistic jerk. BYE! I enjoyed this friends to lovers book, this trope can be so good when it’s done right! Also I love the little list they created. And watching Hailey battle with the toxic traits & self doubt that Steve created, but overcoming & finding herself again.
This was such a fun audiobook! I loved being able to reread Hailey and Jax’s story. There were small details that I had forgotten about. I forgot about how much I hated Steve and laughed the first time they mentioned the list. Both narrators did a great job and I love listening to this one! Nikki Castle takes her audiobooks seriously. The amount of planning and selection of narrators is unreal. Cannot wait to listen to the rest of the series!
