Sweet Victory

**Sweet Victory** is a bad boy romance book that was released on May 2, 2022.

## Summary

Sophie Caldwell might not like asking for help, but help is what she needs if she’s going to save her family business from her uncle. Her grandma left one rule for Sophie if she wants to gain sole ownership before she’s thirty—get married. Yeah, fat chance of that happening since she hasn’t had a boyfriend in years, and now she can’t get her uncle off her ass.

British-born MMA fighter Xander James has never lost a fight, and he’s not about to start now. He’s on the brink of a comeback that could make him a UFC champion, but his landlord wants to take away his last chance by shutting down his gym. Hell, no. Fortunately, his landlord’s niece has a problem of her own. Time for a proposal she can’t refuse.

Don't let his British accent fool you: there’s nothing polite about fighter Xander James. This bad boy has plenty of dangerous charms, but when you're on the verge of losing your family bakery, could he also be your knight in shining armor?
