Sin Under the Spotlight

Ace Draxler is the king of the underground a brutal bare knuckle boxer and the head of a high stakes illegal gambling and "logistics" empire. He lives by a code of cold steel, accompanied only by his best friend Arlo and his fiercely protective Doberman, Zellan. Ace has no room for distractions, especially the kind that come in high heels.

Xilya Nyx is a woman living a dangerous double life. By day, she's a brilliant, exhausted pre-med student fighting to escape her past through textbooks and high grades. By night, she is the star attraction at The Boudoir Bliss, a stripper who uses the club's neon haze to fund her expensive dreams.

But in a world of illegal rings and blood money, falling in love isn't just a distraction, it's a death sentence.

What happens when desire becomes a sin?
