“My life was complete. Happy, content, everything neat and perfect.
Then it all changed.
I was sold.”
Tess Snow has everything she ever wanted: one more semester before a career in property development, a loving boyfriend, and a future dazzling bright with possibility.
For their two year anniversary, Brax surprises Tess with a romantic trip to Mexico. Sandy beaches, delicious cocktails, and soul-connecting sex set the mood for a wonderful holiday. With a full heart, and looking forward to a passion filled week, Tess is on top of the world.
But lusty paradise is shattered.
Kidnapped. Drugged. Stolen. Tess is forced into a world full of darkness and terror.
Captive and alone with no savior, no lover, no faith, no future, Tess evolves from terrified girl to fierce fighter. But no matter her strength, it can’t save her from the horror of being sold.
Can Brax find Tess before she’s broken and ruined, or will Tess’s new owner change her life forever?

DELETED SCENE
TEARS OF TESS
(unedited)
“Ami?”
I
hunched, sliding down the wall of the glass shower. No. I couldn’t stomach company.
Suzette
entered wafting her hand at fogging steam. “Ami. You need to get out now.
Master Mercer has arranged a late dinner for you.”
Food? I
couldn’t think of food. I’d throw up all back up again.
Suzette
turned off the shower and ducked to my level, holding a fluffy towel. “Here.
Hush now, you’re safe.”
Those
two little words again.
My eyes
couldn’t stop the stem of tears and Suzette shuffled closer, patting my wet
shoulder. “It’s okay to cry. Get it out. But I hope you’ll realize this is best
place for you. Here nothing else can touch you, but Q, and that isn’t such a
bad thing. Is it?”
I wiped
away moisture on my cheeks. “No,” I whispered. And really, the knowledge only Q
could touch me was like winning the lottery. He’d been nothing but sensual and
possessive. Never evil and hurtful. He drew emotions and feelings from my body
even I didn’t know I had.
It
wasn’t so bad to be owned by a master like Q.
It
could’ve been worse. So much worse.
