The Sweat Box by Carmen Rosales

The fight for love is the toughest match, and only the brave dare to enter the ring.

I ran from my past and hoped for a fresh start. I was desperate—I still am.
When I land a job at a boxing gym, everything seems to fall into place—until I meet Rey Vicente, known in the boxing ring as “The Silent King. He’s also my boss, off-limits, and hasn’t spoken to me since I met him. Every day I’m there, I find myself inexplicably drawn to the boxer. He’s quiet, attractive, and brimming with muscle and power. I know how dangerous it could be to fall for someone like him, yet I can’t get him out of my head. The tension escalates every single day.
I watch him.
He ignores me.
He stares at me.
I look away.

The only thing more dangerous than falling is resisting.
