Worth the Fight is your typical "bad boy fighter type" meets "sexy, yet reserved female type". This book kind of reminded me of Real, except I enjoyed far better than that, especially when it came to the female lead, Elle. There were some parts that were a bit too cheesy and, at times, Nico was a bit too possessive, but otherwise, it wasn't half bad. Along with what I just said, you get a bit of depth in both characters - Elle dealing with what happened in her past as a teenager and Nico dealing with what recently happened to him in the ring. I liked that Vi made that aspect more prominent than I would've initially thought, and that she made those characters really suffer through what happened to them and find solace in each other and the ability to move on. 
 As far as female leads go, Elle would pass my test. She's a successful lawyer, a great friend, she's smart and confident. My only issues with her was when she got a bit too obsessed with Nico, he's in her every thought, all day long, and she can't get over the mind-blowing sex. Been there, read it all. Thankfully, all of that wasn't nearly as annoying as some of the other books I've read, believe me, this was tame and bearable. I think Vi balanced it out with sensible thoughts here and there to make it more real, so I appreciated that. 
 Nico wasn't so bad either. Like I said, he does get a bit too possessive very early on, but, I don't know, maybe that's just the personality of these kinds of guys? They're all pretty much the same. Everything's all "you're mine" and "growl" and all that junk, but at least he had meaningful conversations with Elle and it wasn't all about sex. I'll give him credit there. Also, the fact that he got jealous so easily was a big turn off for me. It felt childish and it didn't fit his character. But besides those minor issues, I still liked the guy. He's very family-oriented, surprisingly, and I loved those moments that he and Elle spend with his hilarious family. 
 Even though it wasn't my favorite from Vi so far, I still really enjoyed it. I loved the fact that these two characters had something tragic and life-altering that they could relate to with each other. I think maybe because I've read so many books similar to this one, they all blur together, but that's no fault to the author, who I think did a great job with the story line in general. If you like this line of storytelling, then you'll enjoy Vi's spin on it.
