Surrounded by her enemies, one man stands between her and death.
Terrified by her sadistic captor, she has little choice but to submit.
But embracing his darkness leads to consequences neither anticipated.

Excerpt ...
I was sitting on the sofa, drinking my rum. It tasted mercifully
strong, so I went for it. Anything to numb my senses. I was wishing I’d never
come out of my crazy haze. Reality was scary as hell, and I was low on courage.
Rip was next to me, his arm around my shoulders. “I’m going to enjoy
having you around,” he’d said.
I wanted to down the rum in one. With no tolerance, I’d be drunk. Maybe
I’d be out completely. Looking down, I could see his cock bulge in his jeans.
The thought of being at the mercy of this man terrified me.
As I sipped at the iced rum, that awful beating came rushing back.
Mitch snarling, “Don Valentine says she’s to disappear.”
“She won’t come back from where I’m taking her.”
A boot in my ribs. “Make sure you fuck her up the ass from me.”
They had planned to have me tortured as a sex slave for the rest of my
life. I’d escaped them, only to land in exactly the same kind of trouble. It
made me sick to my stomach. Was a rape worse than a beating? Soon I’d find out
for myself.
