Love hits different with no filter 📸🥊 💕

When a Gen Z content creator meets a brooding MMA coach, they are the hottest thing on the mat in this forced-proximity, enemies-to-lovers sports romance for fans of Nikki Castle and Elle Kennedy.

Many years in the making, but our book baby is finally here. Sparring Partners is available wherever books are sold in paperback, audio, and ebook.

This story is etched in our hearts and we're so grateful and humbled to be able to share it with you. It's a story of joy and grief, new beginnings, and a love worth fighting for.

To quote a recent review, "One of the strongest aspects of this book is its underlying message: sometimes, the right people come into your life when you least expect them, and those are often the relationships that help you heal and grow."

A huge thanks to @harlequinbooks and @stacy.boyd for bringing Kieran and Lily to life.

If you snag a copy, check in with where! I'll be filling in my map 🥰

Thank you, readers, for letting us tell this story and share it with you ❤️

The final manuscript for Thirst Trap is officially turned in! 🥊❤️

Sebastián, Maeve, and Saoirse’s story is now out of our hands and one step closer to yours as it heads to production. This book is about addiction and recovery, family and faith, learning when to hold on—and when loving someone means choosing yourself. We cannot wait for you to meet them (or become reacquainted!) in April!
