Summer Hustle

She's there to save the gym. He's the reason she keeps losing focus, and her panties.

Molly Quinn is out of options. No money, no apartment, no backup plan, just a marketing degree, a camera, and a closet full of clothes that scream "girlboss" louder than her bank account ever did. When she lands a job at Southside Strength, a gym with more heart than it has functioning treadmills, she's hoping it's a stepping stone. What she isn't expecting is Nic Rosetti.

Grumpy. Brooding. Tattooed. And clearly carrying something he has no intention of sharing.

Nic came back to South Philly to disappear. To stay off cameras, out of the spotlight, and far away from the reputation he left rotting in Vegas. For eight years it's worked. Then Molly Quinn walked through the door with a ring light and a plan, and suddenly everything he buried is one viral reel away from the surface.

Their tension is immediate. Their chemistry is combustible. And the harder they fight it, the worse it gets.

Because the gym pulling them together is the same one threatening to blow his carefully constructed life apart. And Molly is starting to look a lot less like a distraction and a lot more like the reason he came home.
