Synopsis
Ava Sterling is tough and the most straight laced girl you
will ever meet. Her family and her past have managed to alter her future
permanently and she has no desire to allow anyone else into her life or her
heart for fear of rejection or further altering. Ava is alone in the world with the exception
of the grandest responsibility she did not create on her own but on her own she
will carry for the rest of her life.
Declan James is a MMA fighter, party all night kind of guy.
Responsibility is nowhere to be found in his life or so he allows everyone
around him to believe. Coming from wealth and a carefree lifestyle, Declan gets
what he wants, always. And what he wants is Ava. In his pursuit of getting what
he wants, Ava in his bed, his plan changes quickly without his consent. Against
his plans of being the next hot bachelor to cross the tabloids as he makes his
way to being the Ultimate Light Heavyweight Champion, Declan falls in love. He
falls in love without hesitation and without doubt.
Neither Declan nor Ava are aware that fate has
inconveniently intertwined their lives forever. Will they be able to survive
the aftermath of the truth?
Excerpt 1
I start restocking the beer fridge when I get
the feeling someone is watching me. I turn slowly to take in the people in the
bar and check for anything suspicious. When my sight reached the back of the
room, I found the set of eyes that made me stir. Declan. Deep blue-green eyes
set just below dark furrowed brows. The piercing in his right brow shone under
the low overhead lighting above his table and made me want to take it between
my teeth. Our gazes connect and he doesn’t look away. The girl is still sitting
on his lap and running her skanky hand up and down his thigh. She has no idea
that he’s been staring at me for at least the last thirty seconds. Not being
able to handle the stare contest any longer, I smile at him. He doesn’t smile
back and it really doesn’t bother me. It probably should, but I have a feeling
that it’s not a negative emotion that makes him continue to stare blankly.
