Ryan Harper used to love a girl named Jade Forsyth, until she chose someone else.

Walking away from the only woman he'd ever loved and clawing his way up from the bottom, he's on the cusp of making it in the world of professional MMA. He's spent his life being put down because of his working class roots, but now he's made something out of himself. Something he can be proud of.

When a chance meeting on a Melbourne street sends his unrequited love spiralling into his life once more, he'll do anything to show her there's more to her—and life—than how much money is in her bank account, the clothes she wears, and how much overtime she puts in at work. Life is for living...and loving.

But when the rush wears off, will Jade see his feelings are real? Or is history destined to repeat itself?
