Savage Knuckles (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798233270857)

He doesn't speak. He doesn't need to.

Kira mops blood off basement floors for forty dollars a night. She's invisible - to the city, to the men who use her, to every system that was supposed to catch her before she fell this far. In the underground fight pits of Detroit, she's nobody. A ghost with a rag and a bucket, surviving on rice and math that never adds up.

Jax hasn't spoken a word in four years.

He's the headliner - two hundred and forty pounds of scar tissue and silence, the kind of man who ends fights before they start and walks out without looking back. He doesn't need a voice. His fists say everything.

Until her.

The night he sees her on her knees scrubbing his blood off concrete, something breaks open in the architecture of his silence. He doesn't introduce himself. Doesn't ask permission. He follows her home. Fixes her broken lock. Fills her empty fridge. Destroys every man who looks at her wrong - without ever saying a single word.

Kira knows she should run. She knows what he is.

But in a city full of predators, the most dangerous man in Detroit just made himself her shield. And the girl who spent her whole life being invisible just became the only thing a monster can see.

SAVAGE KNUCKLES is a full-length, standalone dark romance featuring a selectively mute, obsessively protective antihero, a resilient heroine who refuses to break, and a love story written in blood, silence, and the brutal language of fists that learn to open. This book contains graphic violence, stalking, extreme possessive behavior, and explicit content. Reader discretion is advised.

Book One of the Asphalt Saints series.
