This is Book 2 in The Fight for Life Duet and is not a standalone novel. It is the sequel to Collision.

“Since the moment our lives collided, I knew you were it for me. The impact was a once in a lifetime event.” – Leo Ashlar.

Leo might still be an undefeated fight club champion, but his past has brought him to his knees. When the one person he had successfully avoided for five years is thrust back into his life, the broken pieces he’d tried to glue back together shatter in an instant.

Juliette Salinger has taken control of her life, but that doesn’t mean she’s in for a smooth ride. She can’t give up on her family and she’ll fight for Leo with everything she has.
With Juliette now caught in the middle, Leo will need to find a way to protect the woman he loves whilst trying to shield himself from any further damage.

Fight or flight? The impact of either option could be deadly.

“Cowards never start, the weak never finish and winners never quit
0 3

This was a great finish to a great story between Leo and Juliet. I just love Jules and how she fights for what she cares about and wants, while Leo is still the tough hottie that we just love.
In this half of the story we finally see a little more into Leo’s past and darkness, and what pushed him into the life that he lives. The title of this book “impact” is also perfectly said. Leo is still struggling with his past when some old secrets start showing up. Of course it’s not so easy for Jules not knowing anything, when Leo refuses to open up to her about it all, but thankfully it doesn’t keep her from fighting for their love, Love that she knows is meant to be. Jules is perfect and know just when to push and when to back off with Leo. She knows that sooner or later he’ll have to eventually tell her about everything, and pushing him to much will only make it worse than help.
I also love the fight that both Leo and Jules has in them, for each other and how they also feel very protecting of one another it’s the best. I will say about half way through, I think it was, I was starting to worry if it even was all going to work out. Kate really had me on the edge for a second. Thankfully it all went just fine. Seeing Leo stand up for Jules, or Jules standing up for Leo is really the best. Nothing’s better than fighting for what you really want. To me this was truly the best ending and story although I would love to see a third book added to the mix, so I’m crossing my fingers since suggesting it and getting a reply of “never say never.” So for now I’m just going to keep praying never say never and I’ll just have to wait and see, I mean can’t you just see a little Jules running around with Leo so wrapped around his finger, lol teaching her how to fight and box. I so could!

5.0 out of 5 stars Impact Of The Heart
Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2016

I loved this story for so many reasons. The characters are amazing. The development of their personalities caused it to feel like the reader is on this journey with them. Even the secondary characters have such lovable personalities. It is obvious the time and dedication that K.A. Sterritt put into these characters.

I have loved Leo from the very first time I read his name in Collision. I love that Impact gives us the background and history of his demons. He takes everything head on for Juliette that it is hard to believe he hides from anything. However once his past starts to unravel, it is clear why he has separated himself from the past. It shows us that he isn't really hiding....he is surviving the only way he knows.

Juliette has grown into a feisty heroine. It is awesome. She is no longer putting a mask over her head to please other people. She is in it to win it....or should I say him! Together Leo and Juliette are the unbreakable force.

“I will continue fighting for you, for me and for us. It’s the Leo and Jules way.”

Can they continue to be an unbreakable force? Or are the odds stacked against them? These are questions I found myself asking in the very beginning. As I read, I realized how much of an impact this story would have on my heart. The twists and turns...the intrigue and mystery....the love and hate. The whole story unforgettably wonderful. I didn't want it to end. K.A. Sterritt, you truly have a beautiful way of telling a story. Thank you for writing two of my ultimate favorite books.

I received an ARC for an honest review from Page Turning Addiction.

4 trials and tribulations stars!! This book was all about ups and downs...it made this book feel so real. Loved it.

Make sure you have read the first book "Collision" because otherwise you will be lost. This book carries on the story of Leo and Jules (Juliette).

"Since the moment our lives collided, I knew you were it for me. The impact was a once in a lifetime event.”

So we know after reading the last book that Jules mom is crazy as hell but enter this book and you realize Jules mom ain't the only crazy mama. Leo has a past he can not let go and not let anyone in either. Is he going to make it out of this with Jules in hand or will he loose her forever?!?!

Jules had finally found herself and is not going to live my her mothers rules but the love of her life just can't let her in. She is reevaluating her life and making changes for the better but one constant is she knows she needs Leo. Though an old flirtation shows up and tries to throw a wrench in the plan. Will Leo let her in or will she move on with a man who could give her the world?!?!?!

Wow this was a good book. I love Leo so very much and I was pressing for him to let go of his demons. He is one hot man. I think their relationship is beautiful and feels so real. This book made me shed tears at the beauty of two damaged souls repairing each other. I did have a to skim a little because it didn't move at a pace I was comfortable with but the writing was beautiful and smooth. And let me say did Jules momma make a 180 change. I did enjoy seeing her mom and dad near the end. It made me feel like all is well.

I received and ARC of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review...please note you need to read Collision first!

HOLY COW! I don't know if I can even put into words what I'm thinking and feeling after reading this. It was everything! I was lucky enough to be pretty new to this author and have had recently finished up book 1 - Collision - as well as getting an ARC of this because I think if it had been different the wait would have drove me insane.

I can't seem to get enough of these characters and I hope they make an appearance in future books by KA or that we are graced with a novella at some point. I just don't want to let them go yet.

I also have to say how much I LOVE a "HOLY COW DIDN'T SEE THAT ONE COMING" moments in books and this totally had that! Usually I figure everything out but I honestly had no clue about how all of this wrapped up. Love love LOVE!

I can honestly say I will read anything KA writes from here on out. I'm hooked I love her style, her characters and her storytelling.

This is the second book in the series and you MUST read Collision first - go on you won't be disappointed!

I was lucky enough to be able to dive straight in to the second book after the cliff hanger in the first!

Jules has grown into herself, trying to escape from living under the pressure of her mother's expectations, she has decided to stand up and fight for what she wants.

Unfortunately Leo's issues are beginning to haunt him, and the secrets of the tragic happenings in his past begin to be revealed.

this book was fast paced with a lot of twists, turns and manipulative mothers, a great conclusion to the story of this couple. I loved it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Get ready for IMPACT!!!

Well this book had everything I wanted after the jaw dropping cliffhanger ending of Collision (and yes you MUST read that book before Impact as they are a duet and you’ll be missing out on a lot of you don’t read it). Jules and Leo’s story is not without it’s fair share of drama, sex and more fighting (of the mainly physical kind!) and I was totally hooked until the very end.

So not to spoil this book or its predecessor I’ll just give a few - vague - dot points regarding the parts that stood out for me.

- Leo’s past coming back was HUGE and so very unexpected. And when all the cards are dealt I think you’ll be as shocked as I was with how it all played out.
- I’m going to be frank, the side plot with a certain guy that Jules met was just a whole lot of frustrating!!!!!
- Perth!!! Wow - so much good stuff and so much shocking stuff that men and women will do in the pursuit of sport (the sauna 😳😳🤢🤢)
- Jules continues to fight for what and who she believes in and I love her so much for that.
- And Leo - he is my type of book boyfriend: hot, flawed and crazy in love with his Jules!!
- That epilogue - ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!!!!! I loved it ❤️❤️

Overall this is one incredible duet that will keep you turning pages until the very end. Kate Sterritt is on my must read authors list for a reason and these books only cement that even further!!

*****4.5 Impactful stars*****

ARC generously provided in exchange for an honest review.

The end of Jules' and Leo's story is bitter sweet. I'm sad it's over but I'm also elated at the way in which their lives turned out. From the beginning you knew these two were destined to be with one another.

Impact begins exactly where Collision finished off. The cliff-hanger at the end of book one kept me wanting more. Sterritt doesn't disappoint. She gets right back into it and BAM, away we went.

I loved Jules' and Leo's mature relationship. Even though they went through some rough patches, they always seem to end up on the right side with very little angst and always with a sound mind. I appreciate that in their characters. Their love for one another reaches off the page and it makes you yearn for a love like that.

For me, the Farm house is so special. I can vividly imagine the lovely space and can picture every beautiful detail Kate elaborates on. She is gifted in her attention to detail and it works so well.

I particularly loved the last 20% of this book. I couldn't get through it fast enough. My brain couldn't read at the speed in which my heart needed it to.

I'm excited to see what Mrs. Sterritt has in store for us next.

I was lucky enough to have book 1 in this series (Collision) gifted to me by the author so it went hand in hand that I would read book 2 (if follows on from book 1).

This story had me wanting to read more and more, I felt compelled to the characters in this book and looked forward to catching half hour here and there with my kindle (busy mum of 3 children so time is precious).

This book is a true love story, with twists and turns along the way.

"And just like that our crazy, mixed up boy meets girl love story got its happily ever after".

5 Stars, highly recommended :)

Hanging on after book 1 in the Fight for Life series - Collision (definitely read this first!) - I was impatient and hoped K.A. Sterritt would deliver. She most certainly did that in Impact, and in fact, she exceeded my expectations. Plot twists and impressive character development kept me riveted, and Leo and Juliette have become one of my all-time ultimate couples. Their journey in Impact is not without obstacles. This is a well-researched and finely crafted novel; I really love it when I feel like the author has really done her homework and the scenarios are so vivid and compelling. Leo and Jules' relationship is raw, sexy and honest without ever being tacky, and I was especially pleased to see Juliette's growth from the first novel - gotta love a powerful female protagonist! This series is one I will happily re-read over and over again.
