Aria has spent her life playing it safe. Quiet job. Quiet routine. Quiet heart. Then Gunner crashes into her world like a storm she never saw coming. He's ruthless in the ring, controlled everywhere else, and far too dangerous for a woman like her to want. But the more time Aria spends in his orbit, the more he awakens parts of her she's spent years burying--desire, courage, hunger, and a reckless need to trust the one man she probably shouldn't. Gunner knows exactly what it means to lose the people he loves. That's why he's determined to make Aria stronger. Sharper. Untouchable. Because enemies from his past are moving closer, and the threat circling him is no longer aimed at just him. It's aimed at her. As obsession turns into something deeper, Aria is pulled into a world of violence, secrets, and forbidden pleasure--where every lesson Gunner teaches her could mean survival, and every touch blurs the line between pain and need. But danger isn't always waiting in the shadows. Sometimes it comes from the past. Sometimes it wears a familiar face. And when betrayal finally strikes, Gunner and Aria may lose far more than each other.
