Synopsis

**Goodreads finalist for BEST DEBUT**

Contains brand new bonus content, exclusive to the print edition

A love that's worth keeping is worth fighting for . . .

Emily McCarthy is living in fear of a dark and dangerous past. A gifted mathematician, she is little more than a hollow, broken shell, trying desperately to make ends meet long enough to finish her degree.

Through an unlikely friendship with the aging, cantankerous owner of an old boxing gym, Em is thrown into the path of the most dangerous man that she has ever met.

Cormac "the Hurricane" O'Connell is cut, tattooed and dangerous. He is a lethal weapon with no safety and everyone is waiting for the mis-fire. He's never been knocked out before, but when he meet Em he falls, HARD. Unlike any other girl he's ever met, she doesn't want anything from him. Just being around her makes him want to be a better person.

They are polar opposites who were never meant to find each other, but some things are just worth the fight.

Perfect for fans of Kristen Ashley and Katy Evans

'A refreshing addition to the fighter romance genre. A realistic and beautiful journey of two people beating the odds to achieve their happily ever after.' Harper Sloan

About this title

About the Author

R. J. Prescott was born in Cardiff, South Wales although she left to study law at the University of Bristol, England. Four weeks before graduation she fell in love, and stayed. Ten years later she convinced her crazy, wonderful fire fighter husband to move back to Cardiff with her where they live with their two equally crazy sons. Juggling work, writing and family doesn't leave a lot of time, but curling up on the sofa with a cup of tea and a bar of chocolate for family movie night is definitely the best part of her week.

From the Back Cover

Emily McCarthy is living in fear of a dark and threatening past. On the outside she's holding it together, trying desperately to make ends meet and finish her degree, but inside she feels like little more than a hollow, broken shell.

Then, through an unlikely friendship with the cantankerous owner of an old boxing gym, Em is thrown into the path of the most dangerous man she has ever met.

Cormac 'the Hurricane' O'Connell is cut, tattooed and ruthless: a lethal weapon with no safety and everyone is waiting for the misfire. He's learned the hard way that to get ahead you have to fight your corner and he's never been knocked out before. Until Em. Unlike any other girl he's known, she doesn't want anything from him. And just being around her makes him want to be a better person.

They are polar opposites who were never meant to find each other, but some things are just worth the fight.
