Takedown
by Gemma Brooks
“You might not be what I want, Rowdy,” she said with a strain in her voice. “But you’re what I need. What am I supposed to do about that?”Stoic and reserved, Rowdy Matthews was a lot of things, but most of all he was a fighter. At the age of 8, he fought for his life. As a teenager, he fought off the bullies that harassed his kid brother for being different. As an adult, he fought in underground fighting rings for what little money he could get. But nothing could've prepared him for the biggest fight of his life...his feelings for Gia Caruso. His dreams to go pro within reach, he should be concentrating on wins. But he can't stop thinking about the girl he met at a fight, the one with the sweet ass and gentle hands. Like two forces of nature they seem fated to collide and he resists with all his strength and training, but deep down he knows she might be the one person who will be able to take Rowdy Matthews down.
