Learning to Fight: A Sapphic Romance (Unbroken Book 1)

By Reagan Bush

Sometimes the hardest battles are the ones no one sees.

After one night changes everything, Donna Rafferty finds herself unmoored, haunted by fear, unsure who she is, and desperate to feel like herself again. When a friend drags her to a women-only MMA gym tucked into a quiet corner of the city, Donna isn't looking for transformation. She just wants to breathe without flinching.

But Sunny's Gym isn't what she expects. It's not just sweat and steel. It's community. It's control. And it's where she meets Lauren, a reserved, self-assured instructor with a quiet intensity and scars of her own.

What begins as reluctant self-defense training becomes something more... a test of trust, connection, and the courage to keep showing up. For Donna, it's a slow journey back to herself. For Lauren, it's the unsettling pull of someone who sees past the armor.

As tension builds inside the gym and out, two women with very different pasts begin to discover the strength it takes to let someone in.

Learning to Fight is a powerful, slow-burn sapphic romance about survival, resilience, and the unexpected tenderness that can bloom when we stop running... from others, and from ourselves.
