In this corner: Madison "Mad Dog" Bennett: Venture capitalist. Runs on instincts and caffeine. Fearless (unless it's love).
In this corner: Maurice "Murderface" Mayfield: Former MMA fighter,
Eternal optimist. Has a collection of designer sneakers. Also collects crazy
exes.
Sparks fly between Maddie and Mo when she invests in his MMA-themed gyms. But
Mo is known for his flavor-of-the-month romances. Maddie thinks she's watching
the clock run out on them when Mo's ex drops off a package - the son he never knew
he had.
Maddie and Mo's wedding is interrupted, and Maddie thinks she must choose
between flight or fight. Fighting is in her comfort zone, but love? Not so
much. Working things through? Even less. It won't be an easy trip down the
aisle.
Excerpt:
I let Mo draw the faux-fur
blanket over us and wrap me in his arms.
“This is nice,” I said. “Hanging out with you is really nice.” It was the closest I’d gotten to expressing emotions in a long time.
“I could get used to this.”
“Me too. It’s really nice.” What the hell, Maddie? Didn’t I know any words other than ‘nice’?
My mouth engaged again, before my brain could search for synonyms. “I’m so lucky to have you in my life,” I gulped. “You saved me from the hell of the funeral. You’ve got so many good qualities – I could go on and on.”
“Please don’t stop on my account,” teased Mo. “You’re off to a good start.”
“Actually, that’s all I got.” I didn’t want to sound like I was at the “I love you, man” stage of drunkenness. We’d seen enough of that earlier. At least, I had.
“Okay.” Mo took a deep breath. “So, let’s discuss the next step. We’re business partners. We’re living together. There’s only one more thing we can do. Let’s get married.”
“Wait, what?
Had I heard right? Of course I had. It just seemed a little soon.
“I know it seems a little soon,” continued Mo.
Told you so.
“But when you know, you know. The first time we worked out together, you were a champ. You looked me straight in the eye. You were fierce and you weren’t afraid to show it. You knew all about me and you were okay with it. It’s hard to find that in one person. Believe me, I’ve tried. And if you think I’m gonna let you go, you’re insane.” Mo started rubbing my back exactly how I liked to have my back rubbed.
This was getting much more difficult. There had to be a way to let him down gently. I knew the words, but they wouldn’t come out of my mouth.
“You caught me off guard,” is what I said. “But I always trust my instincts. And they’re telling me to be all in. Ride or die.”
“Ride or die,” said Mo. He said other stuff, too. Then, things escalated and before long, I was invoking the Lord’s name. I do that in the heat of the moment. #sorrynotsorry
About Rachel Abugov:
Rachel is a
recovering standup comic, former mental health admin, cat lady, foodie and
lover of classic rock. She’s lived most of my life in Montreal, which is the
Most Romantic City in North America.
She can't remember a time when she wasn't a reader, and
therefore, a wannabe writer. Her first attempt at novel-writing was when she
was 11, and she restarted in seriousness around four years ago.
Rachel writes women's contemporary fiction - snarky
but sweet (that means closed-door sex scenes but lots of sarcasm and tons
of schmoopiness) The longer she writes, the more her characters resemble facets
of herself and echo her life experiences. She'll let you decide whether that's
a Good Thing or not.
