A novel by Catalina Voss
The new gym across the street is stealing my clients, and I'm about to commit murder.
Ember Hayes built Wildfire Fitness from nothinga safe space where women discover their strength without judgment. She's survived career-ending injuries, toxic relationships, and every obstacle life threw at her independence.
The last thing she needs is Colt Brennan.
The ex-military goalie thinks his traditional powerlifting gym can coexist with her women-focused sanctuary. He's calm where she's fire, patient where she's fierce, and infuriatingly reasonable when all she wants is a good fight.
But when equipment failures threaten everything she's worked for, Colt offers help she desperately needs but can't afford to accept.
Ember learned the hard way that trusting men with her dreams leads to losing herself. Colt learned that loving someone means fighting for them, not trying to fix them.
Partnership feels impossible when every instinct screams self-protection.
Until a corporate buyout threatens both their businessesand forces them to choose between individual safety and fighting together.
Small-town Pinebrook is only big enough for one gym.
But maybe it's big enough for two people to discover that real strength isn't about standing aloneit's about finding someone worth standing with.
When the past demands you choose between love and independence, what happens if you refuse to choose at all?
Some battles are worth losing yourself in. Others teach you who you really are.
