Review 1: The gist of the story is the 'college educated engineer yet waiting tables because I have issues' heroine Laurel meets Flynn the 'working class, macho tough guy construction worker by day/ boxer by night' and is immediately attracted to him, steps out of her comfort zone and asks him out.Flynn tells her he's not her type but then invites her to one of his underground boxing matches and says if that doesn't scare her off she can ask him out again.
