In this corner, meet Dirk. Up-and-coming boxer, confirmed bachelor, and lover of curves....belonging to his coach's little sister.
In the other corner, meet Beth. Recent college grad, with curves and sass for days, and an over-protective older brother.

I'm a boxer. Undefeated. Boxing is the only thing I know and the only thing I thought I'd ever have to my name.

The moment Beth comes back to town, I realized the feelings that started during our fling last summer are still raging in me. We'd agreed it was a summer fling and nothing more. Even then, I knew Beth was special, but I tried to ignore how I felt. Her sweet curves have filled my dreams for months.

Now, I want more. I want forever with her. Seeing her again makes me realize I can't ignore my feelings anymore. There's a reason I couldn't forget her.

Beth is working to make her way in the world. She's not convinced I'm capable of settling down. My coach, who happens to be her big brother, wants to throw me out of the gym.

The odds are stacked against me, but I'm a fighter and a winner. Winning her heart will be the toughest fight of my life, but Beth is worth fighting for. I'll take on her brother and anyone else, because I'm not stopping until I win her heart.
