My sister fled from her arranged marriage, leaving me to fill her shoes. Cameron Thompson is the last man I want to marry. His father has my brother, sending him home piece by piece, until I agree to head up the aisle. I hate him. I hate them all. I'm going to burn their world down.

Some might call it obsession, but I knew it was love. And I'd prove it to her.

When Ashley leaves a review on a site for adult items, moaning about her husband's lack of interest, she doesn't expect anyone to care. But one man does. He fixates on her and decides to show her exactly how attractive he finds her. The collar she purchased won't go unused.

Izzy Stanton gets stranded in a snowstorm on the way home from college. Distant lights bring her stumbling onto a rugged older man's doorstep, where she begs for a place to stay. But Emmett has been hurt by women in his past, and he doesn't want an intrusion to his quiet escape from the world.

I can't speak. I have no one. I live my life below the radar, burning crime scenes for the mafia. Most of my life I've managed to quash the loneliness down until it left me nothing but a hardened shell.

‘If you can’t love me right, then love me wrong.’ My father gave me no choice. Marry his enemy to make peace. His enemy old enough to be my father, and with a penchant for leaving his partners dead. Escape is my only option.
