Description

Icarus Smith has two problems, and they both want him...their Mediator. Icarus Smith has just landed an unusual assignment. A licensed mediator used to handling squabbling spouses, he's been hand-picked to negotiate a forty-million-dollar welterweight championship title fight. The problem is, these two world boxing champions hate each other. Worst of all, Icarus has discovered that one of them, Italian superstar Paolo de Luca, is the man with whom he had a passionate affair in Italy the previous summer. Paolo cruelly dumped him, and Icarus realizes he is still devastated. Can he overcome his personal feelings to work with Paolo and the boxer's arch-nemesis, US champion Adam Wyler? So far, the fight scheduled to take place at New York's Madison Square Garden is a bust. Fans have bought tickets, and Pay-Per-View sales are through the roof. Just like Lady Di's face once adorned dishcloths, these guys have their faces on buttons, badges, posters, TV and print ads. And they don't care. But Icarus has an even bigger problem. He's just accepted promoter Thaddeus Halsey's huge wad of cash to broker this deal and Icarus wants the money for a restoration project in his hometown in Las Vegas. Can Icarus go through with mediation? Can he persuade the man who broke his heart to face the guy who now apparently wants it?
