She thinks she can't trust anyone. He’s determined to prove her wrong. Sebastian Black doesn’t do the “right thing.” He didn’t listen when his parents told him not to become a professional MMA fighter, and he refused to play the part of their polished, high-society heir. Sure, he's finally free, but with his family's money cut off, his next fight months away, and no sponsors to endorse him, he needs a temporary job. Fast. Romilly Westfall is known for being a good girl. She’s sweet and generous, but maybe a little too ambitious—especially after her last dog-grooming business failed. This time, she's determined to make things work. But when her assistant quits and her rent suddenly spikes, her second chance at independence starts to crumble. So, when she meets the infuriatingly charming and handsome newcomer at her small-town church, hiring him as a temporary dog bather seems like her only option. Even if he is entirely wrong for the job—and for her—he's desperate for work. And desperate is exactly what she needs. But the good girl and the bad boy were never supposed to mix, and the more time they spend together, the more determined Bash becomes to show Romilly he's someone she can trust. With the fight of Bash's life on the horizon, he’ll have to decide if winning means breaking free of everyone trying to control him, or fighting for a future that's finally worth staying for.
