Choke Hold cover

Angel Dare must confront her past while protecting a young MMA fighter in Choke Hold, facing danger across the desert and city streets.

In Choke Hold, Angel Dare finds herself in the Witness Protection Program, seeking refuge from a tumultuous past. Unlike the assumptions others may have about her previous life as a porn star, Angel is a formidable figure who dismantled a notorious sex slavery ring that had wreaked havoc on her existence. However, the shadows of her past are relentless, and they resurface when tragedy strikes. A former co-star is brutally murdered, leaving behind a son who is now in grave danger.

Determined to protect the young man, who happens to be a hotheaded MMA fighter, Angel embarks on a perilous journey through the unforgiving landscapes of Arizona. The stakes are high as they traverse shady Mexican bordertowns and the glitzy yet treacherous streets of Las Vegas. As they navigate this dangerous terrain, Angel must confront her own demons while trying to keep the son of her late friend safe from those who wish to silence him.

Choke Hold is a gripping tale of survival, loyalty, and the lengths one will go to protect family. Angel's journey is not just about escaping her past, but also about forging a new path and finding strength in unexpected places. The narrative is filled with tension, action, and emotional depth, making it a compelling read for anyone who enjoys a thrilling story of resilience and redemption.
