Caden, a MMA fighter who also fights in illegal rings to help his brother, finds a instant spark with a spectator at one of his fights. He just can't seem to shake him out of his head.
Noah, a clean laced, well dressed, overworked social worker. He takes a night off work to attend a fight with a boy he had helped in the past who calls him Uncle, where he finds a instant spark with a guy who helps him find his seat. This guy ends up being one of the fighters. He can't seem to get him out of his head the whole weekend and come Monday morning he has a hard time focusing on work.
This novel is such a push and pull between what is right, and what feels right. Will they give in to temptation and just be right for each other or will they let it break them and walk away forever?


There is chemistry, passion, friendship, and heartache wrapped in a tiny bow of Caden and Noah. This was a slow read for me, I personally enjoy stories that move a little faster. The plot is good but almost feel like you know what is going to happen before it does, this is the reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars.

I was given this book as an ARC in trade for a honest review.
