On the Ropes

Description

I’m willing to die for vengeance. Until she gives me a reason to live… I’m a rising star in New York City’s underground MMA scene. I’m winning all my matches, and I can have any woman I choose. Except the one who was lost to me, and now, the one I want but can never allow myself to have. Carly Anderson is gorgeous and funny and seductive. She isn’t shy about letting me know she’s interested. But she’s far too innocent for me to taint with the sins of my past—and my present. In the circles I run in, a bullet can take you out at any time. My father and older brother embraced the dark, dangerous world of the mafia that I turned away from, until the person I loved most was caught in the crossfire between our warring families. I made a choice to avenge her death, fully aware I likely won’t come out alive. I’ve embraced the life I now live. And if it ends me, so be it. But I never expected Carly would have to pay my debts—and her sister’s. Author’s note: On The Ropes is a full-length MMA romantic suspense novel with a happily ever after ending and no cliffhanger, though it contains violent material that may be triggering. It was previously published by Cari Quinn in 2015 and has been lightly re-edited.
