Laurence Dalziel is worn down and washed up, and for him, the BDSM scene is all played out. Six years on from his last relationship, he's pushing 40 and tired of going through the motions of submission. Then he meets Toby Finch. Nineteen years old. Fearless, fierce, and vulnerable. Everything Laurie can't remember being. Toby doesn't know who he wants to be or what he wants to do. But he knows, with all the certainty of youth, that he wants Laurie. He wants him on his knees.

I trust no one. I thrive with control and I've learned to be ruthless and coldhearted. A love life? I'm not interested. But I still have desires. That's where Dahlia came in; my treasure.

But one lie changed everything.

The victim of a human trafficking ring, I was confined to a tiny bedroom with seven other women. The conditions were horrific. They'd taken my freedom, my clothes, and, eventually, what little hope I clung to. Then, one night, we heard gunshots. Prepared for the worst, I stood with my eyes fixed on the door, ready to meet my fate. And then, he opened the door. He saved me from the monsters. Then, he simply walked away. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that one day I would save him from his.

He gives in to his instincts. He's a ripped, tall, strong and dominant monster.... And I want him. I can't look away. He's going to give me something worth watching. But I don't know if I can leave it at that. I think soon, I'm going to want the tattooed, dark, muscular stranger all for myself....
