✦ Synopsis

Max Farrier is too fat to function. He wanted to follow in the family footsteps and join the Navy once, but he knows better now. Why would the Navy want a useless great lump like him? He’s better off focusing on just surviving this last year of school, and going to work in Aunt Donna’s shop once it’s over. There’s no point in dreaming for anything more.

After an incident at school puts Max in the hospital, Aunt Donna’s had enough. She signs him up for private lessons at a Muay Thai gym. Only Max can get the target off his back, and boxing—she says—will change everything.

But it’s not boxing that starts to poke holes in Max’s stupor—it’s his sparring partner. Cian is fifty percent mouth, fifty percent attitude, and isn’t afraid to go toe-to-toe with a bully in the street. Cian takes what he wants, and doesn’t let anyone stand in his way—not even himself.

And if someone like Cian won’t take anyone else’s flak, then why should a big man like Max?
