***
Cassandra Rose's perfect life is in ruins. Homeless and with piling medical costs, she turns to the last person she'd want help from - her estranged father and former boxer, Frank Rose. His help will come at a cost, though: training his hard-hitting but slow-footed protégé Daniel Knight ballet to give him an edge in his upcoming rematch against Xander Kane, his biggest competitor.
Daniel isn't the only person feuding with Xander; as the son of the fighter who destroyed Frank's career, there's more than a little bad blood between them. Xander should be completely off limits, but resisting his magnetic pull quickly becomes Cassie's hardest challenge yet. And of course, there's the charming, seductive Daniel...
Can Cassie navigate the ruthless world of boxing and rebuild her shattered life and career? Or will her attraction to two different men be too tempting to stay on course? One way or another, there can be only one winner in the ring, and only one winner for Cassie's heart.
***
Everything, from the tips of my toes to my fingertips, sizzles with want. Not just desire, though I have never looked at this man and not wanted to rip his clothes off and trace those tattoos with my tongue. It's something else too, something softer, but something that burns just as bright.
