title: Pas de Deux
author: S.K., Wynter
description: Soldier Cillian Ronan found a piece of hell in Iraq. He came back, but his friend didn’t.
  Back home in South Boston, he discovers his dad’s legendary boxing gym faces more challenges than he ever knew, and he’s got to step into the ring to keep it from the hands of a slimy businessman.
  When a new member finds herself in a dangerous situation one night, Cillian’s soldier instincts kick in and he can’t help but jump to her rescue. But can he really save her when he needs saving, too?
  Sammi Carnevale’s dream of owning a dance studio came to a screaming halt a year and a half ago, when the darkest night of her life shackled her to the nightmare of PTSD. Joining a boxing gym seems both daunting and liberating, and the fact that the gym is the best in Southie and comes with charming hometown hero Cillian allows her to see possibilities she hasn’t in over a year. But when her past reappears, can she find the strength to face the menace, or will she crumble?
  Can two torn souls mend themselves alone, or will they need the power of love to be whole again, together?
  Two secrets. Two traumas. Two fights.
  One dance.
  Pas de Deux is a slow-burn, friends-to-lovers story with a HEA.
