Michael Gallo found his calling in life. He works at Inked as a piercer, but spends his mornings training and dreaming of winning a fighting championship.

Fate steps in and sweeps the carpet out from under her. She tries to deny the pull to him, a man that uses his fists for gain, but the universe won't let her walk away so easy and Michael isn't one to take no for an answer. He has a secret that may rip them apart. There are forces bigger than them at work; drawing them in and making their worlds collide - not letting either one of them walk away.
