A Fighting Chance (Knockout Series)
A.J Nighthawke
by Ren Browne
One week. That's all the time standing between Aiden and the freedom he's chased his entire life.
A drifter who's spent years at the mercy of other men's decisions, Aiden finally sees his way out when he signs on as a cattle driver for one of Texas's wealthiest ranchers. The job is straightforward enough — keep his employer's legendary luck alive at the card tables for seven nights, settle his debt, and walk away with his future intact. Simple. Clean. Until it isn't.
Everything changes the moment Cypress sits down across the felt.
Charming, infuriating, and entirely too clever for anyone's good, the roguish gambler seems less interested in the cards than in getting under Aiden's skin. He steals glances, steals opportunities, and if Aiden isn't careful, might steal something far more dangerous. Their clashes crackle with a tension that has no business being this electric — two men circling each other like a lit match near gunpowder, neither willing to be the first to step back.
Set against the sun-scorched backdrop of the 1880s Texas frontier, *Providence* is a slow-burn LGBTQ+ historical western romance that delivers on every delicious promise of the enemies-to-lovers dynamic. With razor-sharp banter, simmering desire, and two men too stubborn to admit what's really happening between them, this is the kind of story that pulls you in and refuses to let go until the very last page.
