Synopsis
“Who knew a bad boy could mend a broken heart?"
What does a girl do after she discovers her fiancé is a cheating bastard?
In my case, I performed the ritual implosion of all scorned women. I drowned my sorrows in cases of white wine, wallowed in gallons of ice cream, and ignited a bonfire to burn away every damn remnant of his existence. Six months later, the only result was a permanent impression of my ass on the couch.
Adventure Dating my friends dared.
A new and exciting opportunity they said.
I thought they were crazy, but I’m not one to back down from a challenge, so I signed up for the entire four-week deal. That’s where I saw HIM. Lucas Cummings. He isn’t the classic rich boy I usually end up with. The one whose idea of working up a sweat is waiting for his margarita to be served beachside. Nope. He’s a rough and tough bad boy that all fathers warn their daughters about. You know the type. Cocky swagger, chiseled jaw—the ‘V’.
SOLD, I said to myself, until I discovered he was so much more than just a BOXER.
Left Hook.
Right to the heart.
This is a standalone book in The Modern Love World. You do not need to read book one, The Bartender, in order to read The Boxer.

Review
After you've been with the same person for several years and you think your life is going in the direction you've always wanted, learning that your significant other is cheating on you not just recently but has been for quite some time can throw your world upside down.
Tahlia's been in a rut over the last few months and her best friends know they need to do something drastic to get her out of it. Their first attempt at getting her back out there ends horribly, but they are not deterred. Their next idea is rather out of Tahlia's comfort zone but they think this is just what she needs. What could possibly go wrong?
At her first Adventure Dating outing she runs into a familiar face and even though their first meeting was rather ungraceful and he's nothing like the guys she normally goes for, she is drawn to him like a moth to a light bulb.
Lucas is everything Tahlia never expected. He's the bad boy she can't keep her hands off of and she loves the way he makes her feel. Their relationship is moving along smoothly until Lucas' past comes back to haunt him. There's something he's hiding and when Tahlia finds out what it is, will she run for the hills? Or will she see what Lucas hid it from her and be able to move past it and build a future together.
For the love of all things cinnamon rolls and unicorns, I just adore this book and couldn't put it down. I love, love, love Lucas and not just because he's sexy. He's got a heart of gold and the way he always puts Tahlia first is definitely swoon worthy. He's the real deal, someone that values the little things over monetary value.
I love how Tahlia takes a chance on Lucas, looking past his outward appearance to see the man inside. I love that she puts her family first, even it mean sacrificing her own dreams. Even when her friends drive her crazy, she wouldn't change a thing about them. Tahlia is an amazing person inside and out.
This book is a phenomenal read and I love the witty banter, the close friendship the girls have, and the incredible passion between Lucas and Tahlia. I laughed, I cried, I fell head over feet in love. This book and this series is a must read. So if you are in the mood for a lot of sexiness in your rom-com, than look no further than The Boxer. I promise it will be worth picking up this book.

About the Author
Piper Rayne, or Piper and Rayne, whichever you prefer because we’re not one author, we’re two. Yep, you get two established authors for the price of one. You might be wondering if you know us? Maybe you’ll read our books and figure it out. Maybe you won’t. Does it really matter?
We aren’t trying to stamp ourselves with a top-secret label. We wanted to write without apology. We wanted to not be pigeon holed into a specific outline. We wanted to give readers a story without them assuming how the story will flow. Everyone has their favorite authors, right? And when you pick up their books, you expect something from them. Whether it’s an alpha male, heavy angst, a happily ever after, there’s something you are absolutely certain the book will contain. Heck, we’re readers, too, we get it.
What can we tell you about ourselves? We both have kindle’s full of one-clickable books. We're both married to husbands who drive us to drink. We're both chauffeurs to our kids. Most of all, we love hot heroes and quirky heroines that make us laugh, and we hope you do, too.
