When Elias Cardoza gets a shot at the world heavyweight title, nobody expects him to win. He's an underdog who has landed this fight by pure luck. But this fighter from the mean streets of Chicago is determined to prove everyone wrong.  Harper Lindstrom, a journalist from the local paper, has to shadow him for a month. She's out of her depth in the dirty boxing gym with her manicured nails and perfect hair trying to cover a story in which she has no real interest.  Eli despises her on sight. He doesn't need this Princess snooping around the edges of his life, prying into the past he is trying to erase. She's a distraction he can do without.  He wants the belt.She wants the story.What will it be? The Wrath of Eli is a standalone enemies-to-lovers contemporary romance about a broken man and the power of love. It is Book 1 in The Seven Sins, a seven book series of steamy, angsty and emotional stories about a group of characters who are loosely connected. Please note: This story contains themes of past trauma, including references to past sexual abuse (non-graphic) that may be difficult for some readers. Please take care while reading.
