Tap Out — Leslie North

Love scores a knockout blow… MMA fighter Henry Lorenz relies on discipline and strength to get through life. With his former mentor's boxing gym now in his hands, Henry has his hands full training a troubled teen who reminds him of himself at that age. Until a stubborn but beautiful woman intervenes, turning Henry's life upside down. Now, he's determined to prove to her that there's more to fighting than knowing how to throw a punch. Maggie Kavanaugh is devoted to protecting kids from the violence of the streets. She wants them to use their brains, not their fists, to get ahead in life. When she learns one of her most talented teens is training at Henry's gym, Maggie doesn't approve. She'll let the training continue, but she's going to be watching every step of the way. And that means watching the gruff but smoking hot Henry as well… When a dark moment from Henry's past threatens to come between them, he's torn. Should he keep his secret bottled up inside? Or can he give love a fighting chance?
