Challengers, a new book by Anita V Moran, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Katherine (Kit) Ballas Williams was nearly beaten to death as a child, but Will Patricks, a boy from her neighborhood, took some of the blows and saved her life. Kit was then sent to live with her grandfather, a cold, unfeeling man, and Will thought he would never see her again.

Years later, as Kit reaches the age of eighteen, she frees herself from her grandfather's strict and overbearing household and returns to her hometown to uncover the secrets of her past. Will, now a police officer, makes it his duty to look after her as she stumbles through a tense relationship with her mother, criminal boyfriends, and learning the truth about her father. But as Kit and Will continue to get closer, a spark between them is ignited, and they learn to traverse their challenges in life together.
