Between Rounds: A Love Story
Renae Black
The world knows him as Saint.
Undefeated. Untouchable. A legend in the ring.
But she knows the man who comes home.
Santiago “Saint” Vega has built his life on discipline, motion, and never standing still. Between training camps and championship fights, he has never had room for anything that lasts.
Until her.
Amara Laurent doesn’t fall for champions. She builds beautiful, orderly worlds behind the scenes—and keeps her heart carefully out of the spotlight. But when she steps into Saint’s world, she doesn’t find a myth.
She finds a man who doesn’t know how to stop.
What begins between them is quiet. Unplanned. Temporary.
And slowly becomes something neither of them can walk away from.
As his career nears its final chapters and the risks grow heavier, they must decide whether love can exist in the spaces between ambition… and whether some victories are meant to be chosen, not won.
Between Rounds is a tender, emotionally rich romance about choosing stillness, building a life, and discovering that sometimes the greatest love story doesn’t happen in the spotlight—
but in the moments in between.
