That is until a certain fighter walks through the doors.
Silas McCoy, all time heavyweight champion for three years, is not one to live by devise. He doesn't have or want a plan for his life, he'd rather live it one day at a time and see where it takes him.

But secrets can't stay buried for long and soon Anna's past catches up to her, leaving Silas to make a decision that could change his life forever.

"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~•~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~•~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends. Fun times. (First book in the Gilded series) ~•~ [#1 Streetracer - 4/21/21] [#1 Gangs - 9/16/21] [#1 Boxer - 9/12/21] [#1 Fighter - 12/11/21] [#2 Boxing - 9/3/21] [#1 Girlpower - 2/12/21]Lengkap
Whispers Of Heart
Ryan, a once-promising boxer, gave up his sport for Ava, the girl he truly fell in love with. But their relationship crumbled when Ava left him, leaving Ryan broken and unable to move on. Struggling with heartbreak, he spiraled into self-destruction until a bar fight landed him in trouble. Surprisingly, Ava bailed him out, revealing the real reason for their breakup-but not before slapping him in frustration. Shattered but determined, Ryan returned to boxing, training harder than ever. As he climbed back into the ring, he found himself facing Dylan, a cold and ruthless fighter with ties to Ava. Their battle wasn't just physical-it was personal. Ryan ultimately won, but instead of feeling victorious, he realized that some wounds don't heal with just a fight. By the end, Ryan and Ava found closure, though their feelings remained complicated. Dylan, despite his loss, wasn't out of the picture either. Their story wasn't over yet-only the first chapter of something far bigger.Lengkap

Fighter {Completed}
The world has chewed up and spit out Eleanor Robinson again and again. It began with her parents, one taken by a tragedy, one addicted to horrific drugs, and a brother who's too boozed out to know if she's alive or dead. Alone in the world, Ellie isn't exactly sure of how life works, of how anything works, really. The only two people she has that even remotely understand are Sebastian and Scarlett, a pair of siblings that remind her so much of her own family, it's hard to be around them sometimes. When the trio finally move in together after being friends for almost three years, they end up closer than ever. But the move brings along another problem into Ellie's life. Cole Everett is a fighter. From the moment he was cast aside by his family, he's had to fight for scraps at the orphanage dinner table, fight for a spot in the light of his foster family's eyes, and fight for the love of his adoptive parents. It seemed like he never won when it came to personal battles, but in the ring... In the ring, he owned the world. Years and years of the world kicking Cole's ass has shaped him into the fighter Ellie and everyone else sees him as. But the world has also shaped Ellie, and the sweet, heavy-hearted girl paints on a façade that seems only Cole can break through. As the pair attempt to navigate a decent enough relationship to be in the same room as one another without going for the throat, the people around them float between blurred lines of friend or foe. Hearts clash, past enemies arise, and the pair's hearts hang in the balance of it all.Lengkap
