“Let me inside… you don’t have to fight this time.

Jessica is a college student on her summer break. She wants to hang out with her friends but her family has other plans. Thanks to her mother, Jessica has a mystery date lined up for her. The college girl reluctantly accepts when she hears about the man’s troubled past. To her surprise and delight, her date turns out to be a tall, sexy MMA fighter named Jason. Jessica is pleased with her handsome if emotionally withdrawn date and doesn’t waste an opportunity to take him to a nightclub.

Known as the Painkiller, the man is as stoic out of a fight as he is savage inside the Octagon. The tragic loss of a loved one has driven him to perfect his art. However, money and championship titles have done little to heal the pain in his heart. Jessica finds herself attracted to the man’s fighting skills and his quiet sorrow. Soon, her admiration for the man turns into something deeper when Jason and his expert fighting skills saves her from a group of violent racists.

As they recover in his home, Jason finds himself falling hard for the patient, kind-hearted woman. When no man could break his impenetrable defenses in the Octagon, Jessica slips past his emotional barriers. The fighter had replaced the love in heart with the anger of loss. Violence and fighting have kept the pain at bay but never ended it. Can Jessica’s love stop the pain, even if just for one night?
