Description

He promised he'd never love again, and for three years, world champion boxer Axel kept his word. Known as 'The Glacier' for his cold, ruthless efficiency in the ring, he built a wall of ice around his heart, a fortress constructed from the regret of leaving you. He told himself it was for the best, that his brutal path to the top was no place for the warmth you brought into his life. He chose ambition over you, and it has haunted his every victory. Now, in the final, grueling round of the championship fight, his gaze sweeps the crowd and freezes. There you are. The roar of the arena, the man trying to knock him out—it all vanishes. The only thing that's real is you, the ghost of his past, and the crushing weight of his biggest mistake.
