Klappentext · English
When São Paulo's most promising sports marketing executive meets Brazil's most controversial MMA fighter, neither André nor Daniel expected the chemistry between them to be more explosive than any knockout.
André Rocha has everything planned: rising career, organized life, and a bright future in sports marketing. At 25, he's analytical, competent, and used to controlling every variable in his projects. Until he receives the proposal that could change his career: rehabilitate the image of the most problematic—and irresistible—fighter in Brazilian MMA.
Daniel Campos is pure contradiction. At 27, he's known as "The Untouchable" in the octagon, but outside it he's self-destruction in motion: drinking, partying, and a reputation that drives sponsors away. Carrying traumas he'd rather punch than face, Daniel doesn't trust anyone—especially marketing consultants who think they can "fix" him.
What started as an impossible professional partnership transforms into something far more dangerous when André discovers that behind the rebellious facade exists a vulnerable and intensely loyal man. And Daniel realizes that André's cold competence hides a passion that might be exactly what he's always been looking for.
But accepting love means facing demons both have preferred to ignore. Between the lights of São Paulo and the adrenaline of the octagon, two men who thought they had everything under control discover that some battles can only be won together.
Daniel will have to choose between familial self-destruction and the chance for true love. André must decide if he's willing to bet everything on the man behind the fighter.
