Roy Ashenfell doesn’t need saving.
As one of the most feared professional boxers in the ring, he’s built his life on control, discipline, and never showing weakness. But behind the victories and the fame, Roy is falling apart—plagued by sleepless nights, a worsening shoulder injury, and a past he refuses to face.
Layla Vesta can’t afford to fail.
With her father’s life hanging in the balance and no other job willing to take her, this is her last chance. Hired as Roy’s new physical therapist, she’s determined to do what no one else could—help him heal, whether he wants it or not.
From the moment they meet, they clash.
He sees her as an unwanted intrusion.
She sees him as a disaster waiting to happen.
But as tempers flare and walls begin to crack, what starts as resentment turns into something far more dangerous. Because the closer Layla gets to the truth behind Roy’s anger, the more she risks losing herself in it.
