Praised by Penelope Ward as “a unique story line with multiple layers to it,” Sarah Robinson’s Saving a Legend goes another round with the brooding Kavanagh brothers: MMA fighters who won’t call it quits in the ring, or in romance.
His family’s gym has produced a roster of mixed martial arts legends, but so far Kieran Kavanagh hasn’t followed in their footsteps. After a brawl lands him in jail, Kieran is assigned to work at a center for at-risk youth. Though given a second chance, Kieran’s simply going through the motions—until he meets one very special kid, Shea Doherty, and falls hard for her very beautiful, very grown-up big sister, Fiona. The trouble is, Kieran’s best opening moves are getting him nowhere fast.
Fiona Doherty has too many responsibilities to fool around, especially now that she has custody of Shea. Sure, she’d love to find a devoted partner. But she won’t jeopardize her sister’s happiness—or risk revealing her tortured past—on a love-’em-and-leave-’em type of guy like Kieran . . . so it’s up to him to prove her wrong. As Fiona spends more time with Kieran, she starts to see a softer side of the reckless warrior. Now she must admit that when it comes to the possibility of real love, well . . . there’s a fighting chance.

Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆
Both Fiona and Kieran are fighters. Fiona on an emotional level and Kieran on a physical level. Fiona is fighting to survive day to day. Kieran's fighting put him in prison.
Kieran's trip to Fiona's flower shop results in him falling head over heels for her. Fiona needs more convincing as life has been challenging and it is all she can do to keep her business going and look after her autistic sister, who is under her guardianship. However, her introduction to Kieran's family shows her that good things can happen to good people. But both are hiding things from their pasts. Will their secrets drive them apart or bring them closer together?
There is such a roller coaster of emotions to experience here as Fiona battles to overcome her fear to let others in and support her and her sister, Shea. Whilst I have no actual experience of autism, the portrayal felt read and you can't help but have a special place in your heart for Shea. Fiona's back and forth with her feelings can get a bit wearing bu this can be explained by her fear. I am looking forward to much more from this multi layered series and I will be going back and reading book one in this series.
