Just out of prison for a crime he didn’t commit, Carter Sanders needs to let off a little steam before he gets his revenge…only he didn’t plan on meeting the one woman who has the power to derail all his plans. It was just supposed to be one night of freedom before she snuck back into her gilded cage. But after Penelope Croft agrees to have her first scene with a Dom, her eyes are opened to a whole new world of desires. Of course she runs at the first opportunity because happily ever afters are not made for someone like her—even if it’s a dark fairytale. So imagine both their surprise when Carter shows up to her office for a job and finds out just how untouchable she is. How far is Carter willing to go to keep the woman he can’t get out of his head safe when he has nothing left to lose? He’ll fight to the death.
