BRAWLER

<b>JAZ</b> – <br /><br />My mother died giving birth to me. <br /><br />My father beat me. <br /><br />I spent my childhood in a boxing gym with a man who I looked up to as father. He died when I was 16, and so did my love for boxing. <br /><br />Everyone and everything I tried to love gave up on me.<br /><br />As soon as I turned 18, I packed what little I had into a crappy car and headed for the Gulf Coast. <br /><br />I made it as far as Austin, Texas, and I ran out of gas. <br /><br />It's been said that <i>everything happens for a reason</i>, but I never believed it.<br /><br />Until now. <br /> <br /><br /><b>ETHAN</b>– <br /><br />When we drove into the coffee shop, she was fighting to get her belongings from the hands of a thief. <br /><br />Boxing out of a co-ed gym, I'd heard the phrase, <i>you hit like a girl</i> before. <br /><br />It sure didn't apply to her. <br /><br />Other than her devotion, she had very little. <br /><br />She didn't believe in love, and she didn't believe in herself. <br /><br />In 105 days, she believed in both. <br /><br /><br />Brawler is a STAND-ALONE 266-page full-length steamy adult contemporary romance novel with an HEA, no cheating, no cliff hanger. <br /><br /><br />
