Book excerpt: Being owned by Elliot Torres was always to be my destiny... Only now I’ve had a glimpse of another life, and I refuse to settle into my place quietly. Torn apart from my childhood sweetheart and lover, Angelo, the idea of another man’s hands on my skin repulses me. But Angelo told me to do whatever it takes to survive, and I won’t let him down. Except I’m not Torres’s only pet. I share my room with three other women—women who will become both friends and enemies. Rescue may not come, and I’m forced to take things into my own hands. For the first time in my life, I’ll fight for my freedom, no matter the consequences...
