The director will see you now... Getting dragged in front of The Council and threatened with the retraining program at Bratburg Institute would be a nightmare for anyone else. For Talia Bowersox, however, the institute represents something far different. Sanctuary. Finally safe from the daily cruelty of her family, she finds her inner strength...and her inner brat. The latter lands her in front of the sexy, strict director of the institute, Lonergan Mireles. Over his knee, she learns what loving discipline truly is, and in his bed she discovers the fiery pleasure only found in the arms of her fated mate. When her family demands she be returned to them, it will take every ounce of courage and strength she has to stand up to them. But this time, she won't be standing alone, and her new Daddy isn't letting her go without a fight.

She has a knack for getting in trouble. But this Daddy knows just how to handle naughty little brats... A prank gone wrong sends Emory off to Bratburg Institute, where she's expected to learn how to become a "proper woman". But as it turns out, it's not the horrible punishment she expects it to be. The head of security is none other than Emory's own fated mate, and Kodiak sees her for who she really a lost little girl desperately in need of a Daddy. And even though their need for each other threatens to overwhelm them, he spends his days spoiling and disciplining her, helping her to become the woman she's meant to be. Unfortunately for Emory, her reputation precedes her, and when another prank nearly costs Kodiak his life, the blame falls squarely on her shoulders. Now, she has to find the real culprit and clear her name, before she loses her spot at Bratburg...and her mate.
