Some chains dont bind—they set you free.

When my father died, he left me a pile of debts and no way to pay them. Now, notorious rancher Jackson Hawkins owns my ranch, but what he really wants is me. He gives me an impossible choice: submit to one year under the complete control of a monster, or lose everything my family spent generations building. I thought I could handle his terms—after all, Ive spent my life taming dangerous stallions. But nothing prepared me for the predator beneath Jacksons polished exterior.

As spring storms trap us on his vast empire, I discover a terrifying truth—the more I fight his possession, the more I crave his control. But when my fathers past threatens our future, Ill have to decide if surrendering to this monster of a man means losing myself—or finally finding the freedom to become who I was always meant to be.
