What if a second chance at romance comes at a price they can’t afford to pay?
Riley Reynolds is finally fulfilling her dream of opening a karate school. Recently divorced, the last thing she needs is another guy in her life. But when her contractor turns out to be Van Wilde–her first love and the man who broke her heart–Riley is caught between old wounds and the undeniable sparks sizzling between them.
Struggling to bond with his estranged teenage son, single dad Van Wilde convinces Riley to teach them self-defense, hoping the activity will help Van grow closer to his son–and grow closer to the woman Van never stopped loving.
When passions reignite, Van and Riley draw strength from each other as they confront their demons and find the courage to forgive. But can they navigate their painful pasts, a challenging present, and their hopes for the future all while facing a menacing threat?
In a ruthless bid to sabotage her dreams, Riley’s abusive ex-husband opens a rival mixed martial arts school right across the street. And when he does the unthinkable, Van and Riley will have to fight for more than their rekindling romance.
