And the new heavyweight champion of the world is.... Those are the words that Zeus Kincaid has been waiting to hear since he first put on a pair of boxing gloves. He just didn’t think they would come with a tragedy that would change how he viewed the sport forever. Cameron Reed was in her second year at Juilliard when her childhood sweetheart, Zeus Kincaid, walked away from her. A few months later, Cam realized that she would never fulfill her dream of dancing for the New York City Ballet.

It was only meant to be one night, but two little lines will change everything. After recovering from a brain injury that nearly took his life, boxer Kaden Scott can no longer compete in the sport he’s dedicated his life to, leaving only one thing left for him to love…His best friend’s younger sister. Kaden’s adored Missy Kincaid from a distance for far too long, not wanting to risk the brotherly bond he has with his best friend. He just had no idea that the smart, independent, driven woman—on the way to completing her PhD—has also been crushing on him from the moment they met too.

It’s been three years since quarterback Ares Kincaid’s NFL dream came true, and he’s living the high life. The days of cleaning up after his drunk of a father are long gone, and he has no intention of going back. A car crash and DUI charge meant a lengthy stint in rehab for Arianna Petrelli, and her dream of being a professional artist slips further away when she’s sacked from her position at a gallery. Her need for a job stronger even than her dislike of football, Ari goes to work for her father, the head coach of the New York Giants.
