Amy is a 19-year-old business student at a college in South Holland, determined to earn enough credits in her first year to secure an internship. Outside of class, she takes boxing lessons with her close friend Rachel, pushing herself both mentally and physically.
But it's her trainer, Manuel, who has caught her attention - or maybe it's the other way around. He watches her every move with an intensity that's impossible to ignore. Is it admiration, obsession, or something far darker lurking beneath the surface?
As Amy steps deeper into Manuel's world, she soon realizes that some fights aren't just about the ring... and some dangers are closer than she ever imagined.

After his twin sister went through an abusive relationship, Nate fought to restore her honour by starting a chain of nightclubs that hire and help victimized women get back on their feet. It didn't take long for the stripper industry to deem him a knight in shining armour that beckoned damsels in distress. The damsel in his life? A fierce yet gentle woman who doesn't want his help and is more warrior than damsel. She's determined to keep Nate at arms length and ignore the ridiculously hot chemistry that fizzles between them. Now it's up to Nate to convince the woman of his dreams that fairytales still exist and that he wants nothing more than to be her prince. After all, he knows a thing to or two about putting up a fight. Delilah Stevens; aspiring author, voluntary loner, and...pregnant. Yeah, you read that right. Life has been unstable for Delilah since her father walked out on her when she was six years old. It shouldn't be a surprise that the father of her unborn child walked out on her too. The already shy and reserved girl retreats further into her shell until she is convinced that the real world is nothing like the books she reads and writes. Or is it? Delilah is forced to rethink everything she's ever known about finding "the one" when she is suddenly face-to-face with a man straight out of a romance novel who wants her - bad - and resisting his kind eyes and killer grin is no walk in the park. The question of the hour is whether or not the determined boxer will be another villain in her story or the hero that finally gives her a happily ever after.
