I ran to New York for a fresh start... and got captured by a monster instead.

One moment I'm planning my small-town wedding, the next I'm walking in on my baby sister with my fiancé. Betrayed by everyone I loved, I flee to New York City.

I'm finally finding my footing, then I'm stabbed in a dark alley, bleeding out on the dirty concrete, with no one coming to save me.

Until an ancient gargoyle snaps the neck of my attacker like a twig—and decides I'm his.

In one night I go from living paycheck to paycheck in my tiny studio apartment, to being showered in luxury by a creature who vows to fulfill my every desire.

I know I should be terrified of this vicious beast. But I'm addicted to his dark, possessive devotion, and every minute I spend with him makes me crave more.

His every word, every touch, pulls me deeper into his world. And now? I'll surrender to him completely.
