Filthy Beginnings by Alison Aimes

More Scarlett!" - 5Star Review He’s a hot-headed cage-fighter with no respect for the rules. She’s a glamorous, shimmering trophy imprisoned in a glass cage. According to the rules of the tournament, they are never supposed to meet. Or sneak away together. Or learn each other’s strengths and scars by the trail of illicit fingertips along their fevered skin. Or become each other’s whole world. But they do. Except betrayal lurks closer than they ever imagined and everything they care about—including their lives—is in danger of unraveling. Because sometimes first love is filthy, wild, and messy. But it can also be the beginning of something extraordinary.
