One obsession. One betrayal. No way to forget.

Sailor
I wanted to believe his obsession meant more—maybe love. But my perception is twisted.
Every glance feels like a threat—even when my body remembers something different.
Something dangerous.
Something I still crave.
I ran to escape the chaos in my head, but no distance can quiet the part of me that still wants him.

Jaxon
She’s afraid of me.
I turned her fear into something real. All she sees when she looks at me is a monster.
She asked for space. Time. For me to stay away.
But if she thinks that’s going to happen… she’s the crazy one.
She’s still mine.
And I’m still watching.

I've been waiting for the conclusion to this duet since release day of Run for Me (book one) and I am so happy with the result. We left off wondering how our main characters would find their way back to each other and the way in which is happened was brilliant. I laughed, I 🥵🥵 and I was absolutely down for anything that Jaxon and/or Sailor was up for. This is one duet, I already wish I could read for the first time again.

 The book starts with Sailor at Sam's place, and Jaxon not willing to let her go.

After the event that scared Sailor away, Jaxon is biding his time before he makes his move to take Sailor back, as having her in his life is the only option in his mind. He's also searching for his mom to deal with her.

Their chemistry was great, and the spicy scenes were awesome! I did like that there was no love triangle, really; she was only for Jaxon.

It was a little slow in the middle, and it took much of the book for them to be together again. But I did really like Sailor and Jaxon's relationship, and I enjoyed reading about them.

Fight For Me starts where Run For Me ended, with Sailor at Sam's trying to figure out everything that has happened. She doesn't trust Jaxon and needs space. Jaxon of course gives it to her in his own way, he hasn't reached out but is still spying on her. Jaxon continues to try and locate him mom and deal with that. Sailor meets a new friend online and things heat up.
Throughout the whole story, we see Sailor fight her feelings. She's still in love with Jaxon but scared. Jaxon is still overly protective and tries to find a way to get her to trust him again.

She ran from the monster. He never stopped watching.

Sailor thinks distance will quiet the chaos in her head. After betrayal and the truth about Jaxon, she chooses safety. A new place. A careful roommate. A life that looks normal on the surface. She tells herself she needs something steady. But safety feels suffocating when her body still remembers the chase, and every night leaves too much room for a craving she can’t ignore.

Jaxon knows she’s afraid of him, and he knows he earned it. Walking away isn’t in him. Watching from the shadows is easier than admitting she’s the only one who’s ever made him feel exposed. When he slips back into her life under a different name, their connection regnites, built on tension, control, and hunger that refuses to fade no matter how hard she tries to bury it.

What starts as messages turns quickly. She wants to surrender without losing herself. He wants to claim her without pushing her past the edge again. As protection starts to look like possession and choice tangles with need, Sailor has to decide if she’s running from him or the part of herself that still wants to be caught.

Sailor grows from guilt and confusion into someone who faces her desires head on and chooses her darkness instead of denying it. She stops pretending she wants softer and starts setting terms that protect her voice. Jaxon shifts from secretive control to something more transparent, learning that obsession means nothing if she doesn’t choose him back. Their dynamic becomes a negotiated chase where surrender only works because it’s freely given and fiercely claimed.

A dark, ultra-steamy, morally gray romance about obsession that tightens instead of fades, where a masked man falls first and a woman decides whether love can exist inside fear without consuming her. It’s about power, consent, betrayal, and choosing the darkness with your eyes open.

The Elevator Pitch: A woman runs from the man who shattered her trust, only to realize the darkness she fears is the same thing she craves. As he watches from the shadows and slips back into her life under a new identity, their connection reignites into a dangerous game of control, consent, and obsession. When love is tangled with fear and possession feels like protection, she has to decide whether surrender will erase her or finally set her free.

Some finales wrap things up neatly with a bow. Fight for Me rips the bow off, sets it on fire, and asks if you’re brave enough to stay.

Penny Fox doesn’t soften the landing for the conclusion of the Until You Are Mine duet. She accelerates. What unfolds is a storm of obsession, longing, power plays, and choices that refuse to sit comfortably in the light. Jaxson and Sailor’s story doesn’t ask for approval — it demands engagement.

From the first pages, the tension coils tighter instead of easing. This isn’t a romance where the darkness fades once feelings surface. If anything, it sharpens. Jaxson — masked, controlled, dangerously certain — falls first, and falls hard. Sailor, meanwhile, stands at the edge of something intoxicating and terrifying, forced to decide whether love can survive inside fear without devouring her whole.

What makes this book compelling is its refusal to paint in absolutes. No heroes gleaming in white. No villains draped in black. Just a spectrum of morally complex choices where consent, control, betrayal, and devotion blur into something messy and achingly human. Fox handles that gray space with confidence, never apologizing for the intensity of the dynamic she’s built.

The emotional pacing is relentless. I kept turning pages long past reasonable hours, not because I needed a tidy resolution, but because I had to know: where would this obsession land? Who would bend? Who would break? And what would it cost?

Be warned — this story goes deep into dark territory and doesn’t dilute its themes. It’s unapologetically steamy, psychologically charged, and not meant for the faint of heart. But for readers who appreciate romance that explores power and vulnerability without flinching, it delivers exactly what it promises.

Fight for Me isn’t safe. It isn’t gentle. But it is emotionally precise, daring, and utterly committed to its own intensity — a finale that doesn’t fade quietly into the night, but leaves scorch marks on its way out.

Fight For Me is a powerful and emotionally charged conclusion to the Until You’re Mine duet. Penny Fox delivers a story that’s raw, passionate, and deeply engaging, pulling together everything that was built in the first book and raising the stakes even higher.

The characters feel layered and real, carrying the weight of their past choices as they fight for love, trust, and a future together. The romance is intense and heartfelt, with moments that hit hard emotionally and others that feel deeply satisfying. The pacing keeps the tension high, making this a true page-turner from start to finish.

I’d highly recommend this book to readers who enjoy emotional romance with strong chemistry, complex relationships, and a payoff that feels earned. If you like duets that dig deep into feelings and don’t shy away from intensity, this one delivers beautifully.

In hiding but he still watches

She ran out of fear but fear of what exactly. She loved their games and she knew he would never hurt her.

Sam is her sort of ex but they were friends first and that us all she wants. Sam is much too sweet for her. She craves the primal with dubcon and that is so not Sam.

When she meets a new guy online he definitely seems to fit what she us looking to replicate since she can't or rather won't have Jackson.

I loved when she did her investigating and turned the tables on him. Though she was still too sweet to use it much. Though I did love that she surprised him in that one moment.

These two were ment to be they just needed to have everything lined up right for it to be the perfect time. I enjoyed this book and the way everything worked out.

At the beginning of book 2 in the Until You're Mine Duet, Sailor has been staying with Sam, hiding from Jaxon after what happened when she last saw him. Jaxon has given her space after she asked for it, but she doesn't know exactly how little space he gave her. Jaxon also needs to find his mom after she put Sailor in danger. While hiding, Sailor decides to play her favorite video game, and she meets someone who becomes a new lifeline outside of Sam's apartment. This is a dark romance with a morally grey MMC. This has possible triggers, so check the warnings. It is spicy, romantic, with elements of suspense, and thrills.

I was eagerly waiting for the conclusion to this duet and it was everything I was anticipating and so much more.

Things pick up right where we left off and it emotionally builds up slowly. Jaxon and Sailor have such a strong connection beyond the physical. Jaxon continues to be as obsessed and protective of Sailor while she continues to come to terms with how she really feels about him.

I really enjoyed how things developed and that they didn't just magically get back together right away, though I couldn't wait for their reunion. It was a fast easy read with suspense that kept me on my toes.

If you're looking for a dark college romance that's on the lighter side with kinky primal play a morally-gray MMC and a not-so-innocent FMC this duet was a fun time.

What a way to finish a book! Jacob and Sailor have such a powerful connection to one another. Jacob will do anything to be close and keep an eye of Sailor. Sailor is upset with Jaxon and asked him to not contact her. He finds a way to contact her as someone else.

You really feel all the emotions throughout this book. The push and pull of the characters, the love and acceptance of each other is so raw. This book takes you to the end of the journey. It was beautifully written. I’m so glad I was able to read both books!

This is the second half of the Until You're Mine Duet. It pretty much picks up where the first book ended and tells the rest of Sailor and Jaxon's story. I would review the TWs if you have sensitivities to certain topics. The relationship between the two MCs are complex and nuanced. There's plenty of angst, internal battles of push and pull, and the two characters finally blooming fully. The spice was top tier too. Overall, this was a very satisfying ending to this story. I would recommend it for sure.

When this ARC email came through, you know it was drop everything and read (am I dating myself there? 👀)! I've been waiting for the rest of Jaxon and Sailor's story since devouring the first book! In true Penny Fox fashion, I was not disappointed! There's romance alright, mixed with primal chasing, nighttime B&E, masks and darkness, touch her & bye-bye, and the spice with so so good! What more could I ask for? This duet is the perfect excuse to say goodnight early and stay up late reading!

I loved reading this book! I couldn't put it down. I was hooked from start to finish. This book is definitely a page turner. I couldn't tell what was going to happen next. The continuation of the relationship between Jaxon & Sailor is amazing! I can't wait to see what happens next for them. I highly recommend this book.

Sailor asked for space and Jaxon agreed but in his own way watched from afar (as he could) but as Sailor tries to forget Jaxons determined to not be forgotten by any means, but to what end? Well written the story draws you in completing the duet, that holds you captivate to the draw of the characters, well paced, engaging, desires, stalker and more

Fight For Me is book two of the Until You're Mine Duet.

We get the conclusion of Sawyer and Jaxon's story. This one is a spicy one. Jaxon is intent on having Sawyer in his life and will do it by any means necessary. I enjoyed how he gave her the space she needed, but was also determined to stay in her life. This was a great end to a dark and twisted duet.

I loved this one just as much as the first book!! Jaxon is still very psychotic but he really did meet his match with Sailor. The limits Jaxon will go to make sure Sailor belongs to him. They are a match made in heaven. This book was a tad bit slower but it was still good! Sailor one-upping Jaxon’s crazy in this book was great. But it worked for both of them so hey lol

Omg I need my own Jaxon! I loved him in the first book but this emotional side of him that comes out in this book, he’s the perfect stalking boyfriend! Sailor (I love her name) really comes out of her shell in this book and accepts herself and everything else. Love a good HEA! Definitely recommend the series but MIND YOUR TRIGGERS!

Hooks you from the start and keeps you in your toes, wondering how far Jaxon will take it. Chemistry between characters is sizzling hot! Definitely another must read by Penny.

I am not rating the book at this time because I couldn’t get into the story like I could with the first book. I tried, but ended up DNFing because I just couldn’t connect with the book. Eventually, I’ll try again, but I felt the pacing was off and I wasn’t enjoying reading it.

I thought this book was great. The emotional developments of Sailor and Jaxon while they were apart was really interesting. I also liked the whole shadow thing. I thought it all wrapped up the story nicely.

So book one left me wanting more. Book 2? I was yelling at my phone with different emotions and once I got to the end I’m just left here like that’s it? I want more. Must read

Well. I did not see any of this coming, except maybe Jaxon refusing to give up on Sailor. What kind of psycho stalker would he be if he did? Sailor, though? My girl surprised the hell out of me. I loved Run for Me, but this is on another level.
