Nora is that girl: the one who works overtime, helps out her family, and leaves little for herself. With her one free hour a day, she takes out life's hardships at the local mixed martial arts gym, where she can lose herself, if just for that hour.

When complications at work and home threaten her ability to maintain her carefully constructed life, Nora enters a championship tournament as a novice to fight losing everything. But, when Nora makes matters worse for herself, she must learn not just what she is fighting for, but what she is actually fighting against!
