When Master Damien Richardson ("Day" to his friends) takes over the front desk manager job at the Iron Eagle Gym, he knows he's going to need an assistant. But finding the right person for the job is harder than he thought it would be. When he meets Saw, he thinks he's found the solution to all his problems, and maybe something more.

Sawyer Whitehead lost his master to a tragic car accident some years ago, and since then one opportunity after another has gone sour on him. Thoroughly convinced he's cursed and a jinx to everything and everyone he touches, he refuses to officially become Day's assistant because he knows that as soon as he does, something terrible will happen. He's even more determined not to get involved with Day, despite his attraction, because it would kill him to be responsible for tragedy befalling the lovely man.

Day must convince Saw that he's not cursed and that together they can face any challenge that comes their way - in both their professional and personal partnerships.
