Norah Pax loves working behind the scenes for her family's bounty-hunting business. Unlike her adrenaline-junkie sisters, she only enjoys chasing down a skip from the safety of her laptop. Lately, however, her overworked sisters have needed her help out in the field. She has all the computer skills she could want, but her fighting technique is lacking, so she dredges up her courage to ask surly MMA expert Dashiell Porter to teach her everything she needs to know. The sexy and scarred Dash may be terrifying to most, but his unexpected gentleness makes her feel safe, and to her shock, she actually starts to fall for the grump.

Dash is used to people slowly backing away when he enters a room, but a certain beautiful bounty hunter's earnest trust throws him off guard...and catches his attention. Yet as the two throw punches and awkwardly flirt, vultures circle. Every criminal in town has turned against the Pax girls, and they're willing to hit them where they're (supposedly) weakest: Norah. To keep herself and her family safe, Norah will need every new skill that Dash teaches her—as well as help from the man himself. Good thing that Dash is ready to do whatever it takes to protect the gentle yet fierce bounty hunter who stole his heart.
