It’s ironic that on my first day as a prison nurse, I feel safer than I have in years. At least at Oakdale Penitentiary I’m far away from my stalker stepbrother—and prison is the last place he would ever think to look for me.

It’s ironic that on my first day as a prison nurse, I feel safer than I have in years. At least at Oakdale Penitentiary I’m far away from my stalker stepbrother—and prison is the last place he would ever think to look for me.
But I didn’t expect my first patient to be so…compelling. I know Ronan’s dangerous, and I know I should stay away from him, but I just can’t stop the immediate attraction I feel.
When I’m with him, he makes me feel like I’m in control. His ice-cold eyes might strike fear into the hearts of others, but they make me feel like I can trust him. And everything I learn about his violent past only makes me want him more.

Once I’ve tasted her, I know I can’t let her go. Eleanor, keep your bags packed, because when I finally break out of here, I’m taking you with me.
