The Fighting Series

MMA Fighter, Secret Baby

Liz

I’m an eighteen-year-old high school graduate who has just experienced my first… well, everything.

I would give anything to hold on to Cooper, but we made a decision.

After thirty hours of falling in lust, we’re parting ways.

I’m starting college and can’t be distracted.

Besides, he has his own life to get back to.

Cooper

The moment I saw her I knew she was the one, but what my heart wants it doesn’t get.

I know how life works. I’ve been fighting most of my life.

My dad was a fighter, and so was his dad.

I watched my mom cheat on him, and in return, he destroyed her.

I will never do that to a woman.

I get thirty hours with Liz and then we’re both walking away.

At the end of the day, all we’ll have are the memories we have created here in Miami.

Five years later, Liz runs into Cooper, only he has no idea that memories weren’t the only thing they created in Miami. He broke her heart once the day he left and now she’s guarded. Will he succeed in winning her heart over a second time? The only thing he knows for sure is that he’s fighting for a second chance, and this time, he won’t let her go that easily.

MMA Fighter, Secret pregnancy

Bentley

Growing up, my parents were the embodiment of love.
The perfect example of soulmates, and with that ideal, I couldn’t wait to find my true love.
What I didn’t realize was just because you love someone, it doesn’t mean they’re capable of loving you back. 

The day I met her, my entire world shifted on its axis and I knew she was the one.
The problem was, how do you convince someone they’re your soulmate when they don’t even believe in love?
There was a time I believed that love truly conquered all, but now I’m losing Faith.

Kayla

My mom once said, “Love isn’t concrete. It’s an emotion, and emotions are abstract. They change. You don’t make decisions based on something abstract because if you do, you’re setting yourself up for failure.”
I didn’t understand her words at the time. I was young and in love, and if you had asked me to define what I was feeling, it would’ve consisted of words such as affection, warmth, happiness, butterflies, happily ever after.
Now, after experiencing heartbreak firsthand, my definition of love is a bit different. It consists of words like messy, heartbreak, waste of time, unrealistic, fake.
Until I met him. He reminded me of all the words love felt like before my heart was broken.
He wanted to show me the beauty in the abstract, but all I could see was the concrete.

MMA Fighter, roommates to lovers

Caleb

As a teenager, I learned firsthand how untrustworthy and cruel a woman could be.

The first chance I got, I ran and have been running from my past ever since.

Until I met Hayley.

She’s a complete game changer.

She’s everything I never thought a woman could be.

She’s honest and sincere and completely selfless, and by some miracle, she’s fighting for me.

I’m learning, if I want to keep her, I’m going to need to find the courage to fight for us.

Friends to Lovers, Single Mom

Kaden

I fell in love once and it was amazing. Until it wasn’t.

I swore to protect her. Until I didn’t.

I swore to love her forever. Until forever came too soon.

After I lost her, I swore I would never fall in love again. Until I met Ashley.

Ashley

I depended on a man once. Until he walked out.

I gave him everything. Until he left me and our son with nothing.

From then on, I knew the only person I could depend on was myself. Until I met Kaden.

I’m not sure when or how it happened, but Kaden has embedded himself into my life, stealing my heart.

Sounds like a good thing, right? Wrong.

Because while Kaden has my heart locked and secure, his heart was given to a woman who can’t give it back.

Now I am fighting for his love, hoping he can leave his past behind him and find a future with me.

I believe love is a decision.

Our senior year, I promised my girl forever.

This was where our story was supposed to end.
Only six years later, our lives collide again.

Because instead of pushing him away, I shoved Braxton straight over the edge.

When my boyfriend proposes, I say yes, desperate for an easy fix. For a super-glue solution.
But, on the day of my wedding, when my dad tells me to follow my heart, it doesn’t lead me down the aisle.
Instead, it takes me straight to Declan Pierce’s car—where I crash his road trip.
The more time we spend together, the more he shows me it’s okay to be broken.
With him, lyrics aren’t just words on paper.
Promises aren’t just whispers in the dark.
And having a few cracks…well, they help the light come through.

Declan

I’ve had feelings for my best friend’s sister for as long as I can remember.

She needs to find the beauty in the cracks.

Second Chance, secret baby, rock star romance

Gage 

I lost my first love. This time, I’m going to win the second girl who owns my heart—no matter the stakes. 

Being the drummer for Raging Chaos is the only thing that’s kept me going for the past six years. Even the music isn’t enough to drown out the guilt that’s been suffocating me since what happened to Tori.

When Sadie storms into my life, ripping through my trepidations, sorrows, and bitterness, I can’t help but wonder if she could be my second chance.

I could love her, but in order to do that, I have to stop hating myself first. 

Easier said than done. Before I have the chance to mend this broken heart, I push Sadie away and hit rock bottom. 

The next time I see her, she has a baby. And if that’s not hurtful enough, it’s not just any baby.

It’s my baby. 

Sadie 

Bleeding hearts can still beat. I’m living proof of that. 

At first, Gage was just someone to take away the pain—until I realized he was battling demons of his own. 

I never meant to get too close to the devil with the drumsticks, but once I did, he shoved me out of his life with a force. 

My heart might be cracked, but his is completely broken. And trying to save him would destroy us both. 

So, I do the right thing and I walk away—not only to protect me but also our unborn baby.

I had no idea who Gage was to the world when I slipped into his bed. Now that I’m out of it, it’s clear he’ll have to clean up his act before he’s father material.

But then we meet again, and I’m reminded of the man he could be. 

The man he was born to be, before tragedy struck and the chaos left his heart barely beating.

I may be self-destructive and have sucked them into my mess, destroying everyone’s lives in the process, but I’m sure I can fix it. 

It’s gonna take focus and determination, both of which I’m sorely lacking. 

I’m a spoiled boy who’s used to getting what I want. 

In this case, I want them. All of them. 

And I sure as hell won’t stop until I succeed.

Not until we’re bound together by…

Me.

MFMM poly college hockey romance

I’ve spent the past three years in college terrorizing the dean, also known as my father.

I’m everything he hates.

Troublemaker. Slacker. Gay.

But I’m only getting started.

I’m about to make Dad really proud with my newest life choices…

I fall for my best friend, Mia, who’s a freaking chick.

I’m dying to make out with my enemy, dude bro Brayden.

And best of all, I want to bone my new roomie, Drew, who happens to also be the school’s new hockey coach.

I’m the world’s worst human.

I’ve made all the wrong decisions, and when Dad gets wind of my newest mess, he might actually disown me this time.

But I can’t stop.

I don’t want to stop.

I’m a spoiled boy who’s used to getting what I want.

In this case, I want them. All of them.

And I sure as hell won’t stop until I succeed.

Aria

Giovanni is my savior… But he wants me for himself.
I’ve grown used to men wanting me and taking what’s not theirs to take.
But he’s different.

He wants to keep me, make me part of his dark world, and I would gladly follow him into the darkness.
But his life is trapped in a cage, and his family holds the keys. If forced to choose, we could lose it all.
The danger doesn’t scare me half as much as the thought of living without him.

Giovanni

I didn’t choose this life. It chose me.
Born into a powerful mob family, darkness and danger are all I’ve ever known.
But when I stumble upon Aria being held captive in the basement of a senator’s house, everything I’ve embraced and accepted about my life gets thrown out the window.

I’m drawn to her strength, to her lightness, to her beauty in my dark world.
But she deserves better than trading one cage for another.
Now I’m torn between protecting Aria… And keeping her for myself.
