Klappentext
When a fierce rivalry between two professional wrestlers heats up beneath the spotlight, neither man can fight the attraction burning between them, in this steamy sports romance.
From death-defying stunts to campy character gimmicks, everything in the world of professional wrestling is an act. Asher Ross's hatred for Caleb Knight, however, is not. When Asher finally gets drafted to Global Elite Wrestling's main roster and is thrown into a feud with Caleb for the World Championship title, he's hell-bent on making Caleb's life a living nightmare. But as both men trade barbs and blows across arenas, they're each surprised to find their chemistry is so electric, it can't be just for show.
Through rehearsals, training sessions, and injuries, Caleb's icy walls begin to thaw, revealing the real man hidden behind the cruel person GEW has molded him into. An unlikely truce blossoms into feelings neither want to deny, but, set in old ways, the company won't let them be seen as anything more than bitter rivals, both in and out of the ring.
With the risk of their forbidden romance upending their lifelong dreams, Asher and Caleb grapple with what they truly want in an industry known to erase queerness from its history, and square up against the hardest challenge yet: how much of their hearts they are prepared to give up, and if they are willing to fight to leave a legacy of their own.
