Publisher's summary

A series of chance encounters leads to a sizzling new romance from the New York Times best-selling author of the On Dublin Street series.

The universe is conspiring against Ava Breevort. As if flying back to Phoenix to bury a childhood friend wasn't hell enough, a cloud of volcanic ash traveling from overseas delayed her flight back home to Boston. Her last ditch attempt to salvage the trip was thwarted by an arrogant Scotsman, Caleb Scott, who steals a first class seat out from under her. Then over the course of their journey home, their antagonism somehow lands them in bed for the steamiest layover Ava's ever had. And that's all it was - until Caleb shows up on her doorstep.

When pure chance pulls Ava back into Caleb's orbit, he proposes they enjoy their physical connection while he's stranded in Boston. Ava agrees, knowing her heart's in no danger since a) she barely likes Caleb and b) his existence in her life is temporary. Not long thereafter Ava realizes she's made a terrible error because as it turns out Caleb Scott isn't quite so unlikeable after all. When his stay in Boston becomes permanent, Ava must decide whether to fight her feelings for him or give into them. But even if she does decide to risk her heart on Caleb, there is no guarantee her stubborn Scot will want to risk his heart on her....

Critic reviews

“A delightfully flirty read full of banter and heat, Fight or Flight also captivated me with the depth of its emotional intuition. Ava and Caleb positively explode from the pages, and I was left at the end hugging my copy, both satisfied with the fantastic read and bereft that it was over.” (Christina Lauren, New York Times, USA Today, and number-one international best-selling author)

“[Young’s] books have it all - gorgeous writing, sexy characters, heartbreak - I’m addicted.” (Number-one New York Times best-selling author Vi Keeland)

“Funny, witty, sexy, and a little heartbreaking, [Young’s] outdone herself with Fight or Flight, and that’s saying a lot.” (USA Today best-selling author Penny Reid)

All the Feels

This book had many of the same ingredients in other romances: hot guy, good sex, decent story. It stood apart from other books by communicating the emotions, high and low, better than most. The characters were honest with each other, and I felt that the author relayed that same honesty to the reader by allowing us to feel the pain and joy along with the characters. Definitely on my "will listen again" list, and definitely credit worthy.

Great!

It was a great story! Just a enough heat to keep me listening. Powered through it in 2 days over the weekend. Definitely recommend.

Perfect.

I picked up Fight Or Flight at a thrift store, I didn’t know anything about the book. I bought it because I loved all Samantha Young’s books I’ve read before. I bought the audiobook while Audible had a sale. I went into the store blindly and I have no regrets, the story surprised me by how good it was. The plot was awesome, the characters fantastic. Every minute of the book was worth my time, I was entertained, felt in love with the story and all the characters.

LOVE!!!

This book is one of the best love stories I’ve read in the last few months. It’s realistic and honest. I highly recommend it!!!

Love love loved

I don’t write reviews often but this is a great book . The narrator did a fantastic job! Just get the book you won’t be disappointed.

No where NEAR enough groveling

You don’t get to come back from that without some serious explanations and groveling. That was not cool.


The Scottish accent is unfortunately appealing :(

Reasonably okay otherwise I suppose especially if you love a LOT of details about the setting and appearance of characters!

Good Read

Very good "read". The book made the time go fast without loosing interest since purchased.

Liked it

although it wasn't typical Samantha Young style I liked the story - unfortunately performance not so much.

Cute!

This was a cute story. I really liked it. Wasn't my favorite, but certainly better than a lot of romance novels.

Loved This!

Truly enjoyed this audio book. Loved the banter back and forth and listening to them fall in love.
