A one-night stand turns into more when both men discover they have a forbidden connection…

Tav

I haven’t told anyone my real name in years. To protect my sister, I fight in brutal illegal matches run by the city’s top crime lord. With every punch, with each crack of bone, my soul has been carved out until all that remains is a husk—until I meet a fancy suit in a bar who takes me to his home and then takes me apart. Conrad touches me like he knows me, and he makes me remember what it’s like to be something other than empty.

Conrad

As soon as I see the shadowed form in the corner of the bar, I know I have to have him. All it takes is one night with the mysterious man with two-toned eyes before he’s invading my every thought. But Tav is cagey. He has secrets. And although he doesn’t know it yet, I’m going to discover every single one, and then I’m going to make him mine.

Tav says his life isn’t his own, but I’m not giving up. I have secrets too, and I’ll use all of them to make this city pay for every spilled drop of Tav’s blood.

This is a 100k-word high-heat MM romance between a morally gray obsessive CEO with a dominant streak, and a broken fighter who just wants to be good.

Tropes you’ll find:

*Millionaire x Fighter

*Black Cat/Golden Retriever

*One Night Stand into More

*D/s elements

*Bondage

*Violence (not between the MCs)

*Hurt/Comfort

*No non-con or dub-con

*”I’ll burn the world for you.”

*A very happy ending

While the romance itself is not as dark as many in this genre, there are some dark themes in The Fighter that readers should be aware of. For a full list of triggers and story elements, check the author’s note at the beginning of the book (which can be accessed through the sample).
