Talk about kicking a fighter while he's down.
Former middleweight champion and confirmed bachelor Tommy "Lightning"
Sparks has lost it all: his belt, his career, and now his home. After
the devastating fire, he moves in with his drama-free best friend,
Julie. One encounter changes everything, and Julie is no longer the girl
he's spent his life protecting but a desirable woman he wants to take to
his bed. Knowing his reputation, he's determined to protect Julie more
than ever--from himself.
Veterinarian Julie Rogers has been in love with Tommy since she was 10
but would love to get over the man. She's quiet nights at home and a
glass of wine. He's clubbing all night and shots of tequila. As friends
they work great. As a couple? No way in hell. She just can't get her
heart to agree. When she starts spending time with another fighter, the
man who's always treated her like a sister is suddenly not being very
brotherly and enflames her body like never before.
Can two childhood friends make a relationship work, or will they lose
everything because they stopped Fighting Love?
