I never thought covering MMA fighter Ryder “Thunder” McKenzie would lead me back to my old hometown. As a sports journalist, I was used to digging deep, but nothing prepared me for this close-lipped heavyweight champion. Beyond the roar of the crowd and the intensity of the ring, he holds secrets that intrigue and confuse me. Not to mention he has steamy ways of leaving my professional boundaries in shambles.

I said I would never get involved with a showbiz type again. Ryder might just be the best story of my career—or the greatest wreck of my life.

RYDER

Winning was my life. But nothing could prepare me for the match that is Ava Martinez. She was supposed to be just another reporter, another distraction to avoid. But every time she looks at me with those determined eyes, I feel something shift.

Shes relentless, digging into my life, trying to uncover the real me. I was torn between wanting to push her away and needing to pull her closer. But if she gets too close, she might learn my secret, and I could lose her before we even get started.

Chasing Thunder is a steamy, fast-paced instalove story set in the mixed martial arts world of KNOCKOUT KNIGHTS.
