I’m a single mom who once dreamed of becoming a ballerina. Instead, I’m fighting in underground rings, battling for scraps and a future I lost long ago.
Every punch I throw reminds me of the boy I once loved and the life I was supposed to have. Tall, dark, and brooding, Kross Maxwell was that boy—now a rising star in the boxing world. He walked away from me without a second thought, leaving my heart shattered.
When Kross shows up at one of my fights, he thinks an apology will erase the past and clear his conscience. But it’s not that simple. I blame him for everything, including losing my daughter to the foster care system. I’m not ready to forgive, and I’m certainly not prepared to fall into his arms. If he wants me back, he must fight tooth and nail.
As Kross battles for my trust and I struggle to get my daughter back, we both have to confront the demons that tore us apart. Only then will we have any chance at a future together.
