Gavin Donnigan left the Marine Corps a shell of a man,
hounded by guilt for deaths he couldn't prevent. But
teaching a self-defense class at the local gym brings some
stability to his life―along with a gorgeous leggy woman who
won't give him the time of day.
Zoe York lost her twin sister to a freak car accident a few
months ago. She's been struggling to bury her grief, but it
isn't until she signs up for a self-defense class with its
distractingly hot instructor that she begins to come out of
her shell again. With the memory of her sister telling her
to live a little, Zoe decides a fling with buns-of-steel
Gavin Donnigan might be just the thing.
Soon they're sparring both in and out of the gym. And for
the first time in a long time, each is looking forward to
tomorrow.
