Rush: (#9 The Beat and The Pulse)

Ryan Harper used to love a girl named Jade Forsyth, until she chose someone else.

Walking away from the only woman he’s ever loved, Ryan clawed his way up from the bottom and is finally on the cusp of making it in professional MMA. He’s spent his life being looked down on because of his working-class roots, but now he’s made something of himself. Something he can finally be proud of.

When a chance meeting on a Melbourne street sends Jade crashing back into his life, Ryan discovers the feelings he thought he’d left behind never really went away. This time, he’s determined to show her there’s more to life than how much money is in her bank account, the clothes she wears, and how much overtime she puts in at work. Life is for living…and loving.

But when the rush wears off, will Jade finally believe his feelings are real? Or is history destined to repeat itself?

Rush is the ninth book in The Beat and The Pulse, an MMA fighter romance series set in Melbourne, Australia. A working-class fighter on the verge of making it big, the woman he never stopped loving, and a second chance to finally get the girl who got away.
