This book can be read as a standalone read. It's also part of a dark erotic fiction series and may disturb some readers. In this dirty, bloody world we live in, the answers to prayers aren't always pretty angels. Retaken by human traffickers, Jazmine's one hope is ex-cop, ex-mercenary, Pieter, a man with a glower that stops lesser men in their tracks. She prays he can save her. But this savior is far from perfect, and his flaws may prove as devastating to Jazmine as the torture of her captors. The fire of dominance never dies. Warning: BDSM themes, graphic violence.
