Cory Steen is tough; she’s had to be. But when a school fight gets her expelled and charged with assault, being scrappy isn’t too useful. As probation, she’s assigned to a program at a local gym, but soon after she arrives she realizes there’s more to the gym than she suspected. And there’s definitely more to the owner, charismatic Andrew Frost. He draws Cory into training, then romance, then… well. Had she thought she was at the gym to leave her life of crime behind? It’s tempting to trust Andrew and give in to temptation. He’s offering a life Cory could never have dreamed of before meeting him. But can she trust him? Or will she end up having to use all of her toughness just to survive?
