Synopsis

Pain can be pleasurable, but secrets never are. Troy Curtis knows pain. He lives with it day in and day out. Only his daily workouts keep him sane. When he gets a new trainee at his gym, he wonders if his pain could be her pleasure. Gold Falls needs to destress and one way of doing that is working out with a group of other VIPs. Sensing there is more to his bluster, she finds Troy's gruff, trash-talking nature sexy and intriguing. As their relationship heats up, a secret could tear them asunder.
