Fame can't buy the one thing Draven wanted most-someone who would see the man beneath the boxer.

Draven

I'm a stoic champion in the ring and a gentle tiger in a divided world, and I had everything except the one thing that mattered: love without fear of being used. When I met Victor-a sharp-tongued human with a generous heart-I found myself wanting more than victory belts and roaring crowds. But loving Victor could mean losing everything I worked so hard for, and only being seen as a punching machine in the ring. Will he be able to see the real me through the mask I wear as armor?

Victor

I've spent my life outrunning my past, choosing flour-dusted mornings in my uncle's café over the violence that once defined me. Falling for a beastman was never part of the plan. I saw the man beneath the muscles, and that might be the most terrifying thing of all. But being with Draven could be detrimental to my safety. I would be putting myself in the crosshairs of people who reject what we have. Is it worth giving this mysterious stranger a chance?

In a society where humans are seen as second-class citizens, and loving across species is dangerous, our connection is as forbidden as it is undeniable. Our world is determined to tear us apart. Can we fight for a love that shouldn't exist?

Ruval, Alice: - Alice Ruval was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest of the USA and has been telling stories since her teenage years. Her journey into M/M romance began with online roleplays among friends, where collaborative storytelling helped her develop her skills as a writer. By the third story, she was completely hooked.With a longtime love of yaoi manga and the drama that comes with an interesting story, Alice began transforming those roleplays---shared with permission from her RP partner---into full-length novels. She writes the stories she wants to read: character-driven, heartfelt romances built on external tension, vulnerability, and the kind of connection that lingers long after the final page. Many times the entire story is about the main characters getting together, but she wanted to read about the work they put into building something magical. While not all of her books will depict what happens after the happily ever after, Alice is determined to show the mental, emotional, and labor of love that goes into making a healthy relationship.When she's not writing, Alice is still roleplaying, reading M/M romance, and working on the next story she can't wait to share.
