Getting Gold

Leo “Bang” Bangan has spent the majority of his adult life chasing one thing. Gold. Olympic Gold. It’s the only color medal he’s ever wanted and the only one he’s ever let himself work for. The relentless training. The brutal competitions. The painful sacrifices. All of it will be worth it the second that first-place medal is placed around his neck. However, when a new member joins the national boxing team, she instantly becomes a distraction he can’t afford. Her bright brown eyes, beaming grin, and boundless energy are a threat to the trophy he’s spent over a decade pursuing. Sasha “Sassy” Luben is a ball of sunshine in a sports bra. She’s positive. Playful. And painfully attracted to the broody boxer whose grumpy demeanor can’t scare her away. While she’s also in pursuit of a medal, she refuses to believe she can’t have a happy relationship at the same time. Yet, as the Games grow closer and the pressure builds higher, they’ll both be forced to decide what they’re really fighting for. Is winning worth whatever the cost? Or is the greatest prize not a piece of metal but a piece of someone’s heart?
