It was a sweltering day and the gym wasn't air-conditioned. The owner and Sensei, DJ Brown, liked it that way. It should be all about the training, not comfort.
So when DJ decided to open the Woman Strong gym, the first women only Mixed Martial Arts gym in Minnesota, she had no intention of babying anyone. Summers here didn't last very long anyway, although she had to admit today was a real scorcher. A day like this encouraged all those cracks about global warming.
DJ looked at her watch. The woman was thirty minutes late. If this interview didn't have so much potential to increase her clientele, she would never have agreed to it. She didn't trust reporters, didn't trust their objectivity, or lack thereof. Okay, to be honest, she didn't trust most people, but those with the potential to influence really irked her.
“Excuse me.” The reporter tapped DJ on the shoulder. “Are you DJ Brown?”
DJ turned around and saw what had to be the reporter. Who else would wear a skirt and heels to a gym? Once she got past the choice of ensemble, however, DJ couldn't help but notice what a strikingly attractive woman she was.
A Fighting Chance Description:
When DJ and Erin meet, there are towering walls between them. In fact, the only thing they seem to have in common is their uncomfortable mutual attraction.
DJ runs a Women-Only Mixed Martial Arts gym. Erin is a local reporter assigned to interview DJ. How many roadblocks can these two put up before honesty flows? Perhaps the wine at the dinner/interview will help.
