Iron Independently Published Iron Hands Unbreakable Heart Paperback

Eight years. Ten iron cuffs. One tournament to change everything. Mara Chen has been training in secret since she was eight years old - carrying iron that would stop most fighters from moving, before dawn, in a forest no one watches, building herself into something the world has no category for yet. When her family's succession tournament is announced, she enters her name. Without permission. Without her mother's blessing. With the full understanding that if she wins, she gets to change the rules. What she doesn't expect is Dominic Tang - the tournament's undefeated favorite, who has been watching her train from the edge of the forest for three months, who fights with the honesty of someone who has nothing left to perform. Iron Hands, Unbreakable Heart is a martial arts romance about two people who fight each other and find each other - and the woman who carries iron until the day she no longer needs to.
